User manual ACOUSTIC ENERGY AELITE 1

[. . . ] The rigid anodised alloy cone ensures pure piston action and also acts as a heat sink for the bonded voice coil. These features provide exceptional clarity, transparency, dynamics and power handling. The tweeter - or treble driver - is a high-quality neodymium unit with a silk fabric dome integrating smoothly with the rest of the system. [. . . ] The positive (ribbed) cable from the amplifier positive (or red) terminal should connect with the positive (red) terminal on the loudspeaker. Similarly the negative (smooth) cable should connect the amplifier negative terminal (black) to the negative terminal (black) on the loudspeaker. Bi-wiring Bi-wiring separates the bass and treble ground paths in the loudspeaker and offer sound quality advantages. Note that the shorting links are removed between the treble and mid/bass sections and should be stored for later use if conventional, passive driving is required. One cable of each pair should connect to the treble section and one to the mid/bass section. The positive (ribbed) cables from the amplifier positive (or red) terminal should connect with the positive (red) terminals on the loudspeaker. Similarly the negative (smooth) cables in each pair should connect the amplifier negative terminal (black) to the negative terminals (black) on the loudspeaker. One power amplifier drives the treble section of both loudspeakers; a second drives the mid/bass sections. As regards the loudspeakers, wiring for biamping is achieved in much the same way as bi-wiring. Treble amplifier positive (red) terminals should be connected via the ribbed cable to the positive (red) HF terminal on the speaker. Similarly, treble amplifier negative is connected to the negative (black) HF terminal on the speaker. After wiring up Lower the volume to the minimum, RETAIN LINKS FOR FUTURE USE switch on the amplifier, select the signal source and then raise the AMPLIFIER volume to the listening level required.
