Once your AE1 Classics are connected and
working, and you begin to become familiar with
their performance, it is likely to be worthwhile
experimenting a little more with their positioning.
Reducing the distance between the monitors and
the rear wall will increase the level of bass and low
midrange making the monitors sound warmer.
The warmth however is likely to be gained at the
expense of some mid-range clarity and stereo
image focus and depth. Increasing the toe-in angle
of the monitors may regain some image focus but
again this is likely to be at a cost of image width
and openness. Learning through experimentation
how AE1 Classics behave in your studio will help
you find the optimum solution.
The AE1 Classic is not magnetically shielded and
should be kept away from magnetically sensitive
equipment or media.

4. Connecting
Connecting your AE1 Classics to an amplifier is fundamentally a simple
process. However, there are some choices to be made and issues to consider
concerning cable type.
Each AE1 Classic is fitted with a pair of binding-post terminals. The terminals
can accept stripped wires, spade connectors, or 4mm plugs. Each of these
termination methods is potentially equally effective and the choice is likely to
be influenced by type of speaker cable used.
Cable Type
Choice of cable type will be influenced by the characteristics of other
components in your monitoring system and your dealer or distributor will be
able to advise. Even so, there are some simple guidelines to consider:
•
Cable runs to each speaker should be kept as short as possible
consistent with each being of equal length.
•
Short cable runs are especially important if the cable is of relatively small
cross-sectional-area.
•
If the cable is advertised as "directional" care should be taken to ensure
that its orientation is as recommended.
Connection Polarity
It is important when connecting speakers to ensure that each terminal is
connected with the correct polarity. Positive speaker terminals should always
be connected back to amplifier positive terminals, and negative speaker
terminals connected back to amplifier negative terminals. Performance will be
seriously degraded if connections are made with incorrect polarity.
Take care when connecting cables not to touch the negative and positive
terminals together and "short-circuit" the amplifier. Make connections with
the amplifier switched off.
