9. AMPLIFIERS

The Aegis Neos are relatively high sensitivity speakers that do not require generously rated power amplifiers for adequate volume levels to be achieved in an average listening room. A minimum of 25 and maximum of 120 Watts into 8 Ohms per channel is recommended. Aegis Neos also offer a relatively easy load to the amplifier and do not make unusually heavy demands on its power delivery.

No overload protection systems are fitted to the Aegis Neos so it is possible to cause damage through over-driving. Such damage can occur whatever the power rating of the amplifier and is not covered by any warranty. If ever the sound at high volumes becomes distorted your speakers are at risk of damage. In such circumstances the volume must be reduced.

10. LISTENING

It is wise before listening to your speakers to make one final check of the cables and connections. If all appears well begin listening at a relatively low level to confirm that the system is operating as expected. Only increase the volume if you are happy that the sound at low levels is fundamentally as expected. If you are unhappy, turn the system off and re-check all the cables and connections.

Aegis Neos may take a little time to “run-in”, and similarly the system will also perhaps take some time to reach normal operating temperatures. It is unwise therefore to make rapid judgements about the performance of the speakers. Your ears too will take some time to adjust to the new sound, so revisiting the system set-up, speaker positioning especially, is best left for a few days.
