4. Neo Three Installation
The Aegis Neo Three is a floor-standing loudspeaker
intended to be positioned clear of room boundaries
and coupled to the supporting floor through spikes.
If spikes are inappropriate for your floor covering,
metal protection pads, coins for example, may be used
between the spike and the floor.
The separately packed plinths must be attached to the
bottom of each Aegis Neo Three before they can be
installed. Invert each speaker onto a "protective" piece
of material so as not to damage the top of the cabinet.
Insert the four screws (supplied in the packaging)
through the holes in the plinth and line them up with
the pilot holes in the cabinet. Screw them into the
cabinet making sure that the plinth is firmly attached.
Failure firmly to attach the plinths will degrade the
speakers' performance.
Four M8 floor spikes and lock-nuts are supplied within
the Aegis Neo Three packaging. The spikes and lock-
nuts should be fitted to the underside of each Aegis
Neo Three plinth once the speaker has been moved
near its final location. Carefully lay the speaker on its
back to gain access to the tapped holes in the plinth.
Screw a spike and lock-nut into each hole leaving a
length of spike extending beyond the lock-nut so that
when the speaker is upright the lock-nuts will "float"
just above the floor covering.
Tighten three of the lock-nuts on each speaker with a 13mm spanner leaving
one lock-nut finger-tight to aid adjustment once the speaker is upright in its final
position. Once the final position of each speaker has been established adjust the
length of the loose spike so that the speaker is vertical and does not rock. If the
floor is particularly uneven it may be necessary to loosen one of the tightened
spikes to ensure that the speaker can be levelled.
Finally, tighten all loose lock-nuts. It may be necessary to re-adjust to minimise rock
once the speaker has settled on the floor. Take care when installing floor spikes.
They are sharp and can cause injury or pierce electrical cables.
The Aegis Neo Three can be "mass-loaded" in a compartment at the bottom of the
cabinet. Mass loading can significantly improve the performance of the speaker.
The compartment can be filled with washed, fully dried and non salt contaminated
sand, or suitable metal chips, via the access hole in the back panel. A plastic bung
is provided to seal the cabinet. If you decide not to mass-load the speakers, we still
recommend fitting the plastic bung to avoid unwanted resonance. Be aware that
the plastic bung has not been designed to be removable after insertion. You may
wish to use a temporary removable plug until you have made a decision whether to
mass-load.
Thanks to the use of neodymium magnet systems the Aegis Neo Three is
intrinsically magnetically shielded and can be positioned in close proximity to
magnetically sensitive equipment and media.
5. Neo Centre Installation
The Aegis Neo Centre is intended to be used in a home theatre system located
either directly above or below the screen. It can be stood either directly on a
furniture unit, integrated within a screen stand, mounted on a dedicated speaker
stand or on a wall using appropriate bracket hardware.
Best results are likely to be gained if the Aegis Neo Centre is directly coupled to
the floor via a dedicated spiked stand. If the screen stand is to carry the Aegis Neo
Centre it is advisable to de-couple it from the screen with the supplied adhesive
rubber feet so that it does not disturb the picture. If a wall bracket is to be used it
should be as rigid as possible and firmly attached to a brick-built wall.
Thanks to the use of neodymium magnet systems the Aegis Neo Centre is
intrinsically magnetically shielded and can be positioned in close proximity to
magnetically sensitive equipment and media.

positioning and room layout.
