Owner’s manual 

Congratulations on choosing the Acoustic Energy AELITE Sub, a

response extending to 25 Hz in the listening environment. Flexibility in its
operation and connection mean the...

sound quality and bass dynamics, worth more than the additional...

3. For use with amplifiers not having either a subwoofer Out jack
or Line level pre-amp jack
Using speaker cable from the speaker terminals on your amplifier, connect
to the Hi-level speaker input terminals on the AELITE Sub, and then a 
further set of cables from the Hi-level output terminals to your main
stereo/satellite speakers. (The stereo speakers receive the original amplified
signal minus the frequencies used by the subwoofer). This provides greatest
power handling for the system with good...

4. For use with televisions with a variable audio output.
Some of the latest televisions are equipped with variable audio out
puts. These can be connected directly to the line level inputs on the
AESPRIT Sub to enhance the bass response of the television’s built-in 
speaker.
OPTION: 
5. For use with two AELITE Subs
