How do I properly set up the Audioengine A5+ speakers?

To properly set up the Audioengine A5+ speakers, follow these steps: 1. Speaker Placement: Place the speakers equidistant from side walls and at a different distance from rear walls. Position the tweeters at about eye-level in your most frequent listening location. Leave at least 6 inches of clearance between the rear of the speakers and the wall behind them. 2. Connecting the Power Cord: Ensure that the power switch on the left speaker rear panel is in the OFF position. Confirm that the rear panel voltage selector switch is set to the proper voltage for your area. Connect the power cord into the left speaker and the other end into an AC power outlet. 3. Connecting Audio Cables: Use the appropriate audio cable (3.5" mini-jack and/or RCA cable) to connect your audio source (computer, iPod, etc.) to the A5+ audio inputs. Both audio inputs on the A5+ are active, so you can connect two audio sources simultaneously without the need for an input switch. 4. Operation: Move the A5+ rear panel power switch to the ON position. The left speaker front panel power indicator should flash a few times and then go solid. Turn on your audio input source and adjust the volume to the desired listening level. You can adjust the A5+ speaker volume level using the volume knob on the front panel or the included remote control. Remember to give your speakers a break-in period of at least 30 to 50 hours before doing any critical listening. Clean the speakers with a soft, dry cloth and avoid using solvents or cleaners. Please note that these steps are a general guide for setting up the Audioengine A5+ speakers and may vary depending on your specific setup and preferences.
