Connecting the speaker wire 1. Use your thumb and finger to unscrew the connectors. 2. Insert each speaker wire into the holes on the side of connectors. 3. Retighten the connectors with your fingers. 4. The bare portion of the wire should be secured firmly in each connector. Repeat the procedure to connect the other end of […]
Most Audioengine powered speakers have variable RCA outputs for use with a subwoofer like the S8. This means that the output of the speakers and the RCA output will go up and down together. So once you dial in the volume of your S8, you should be able to adjust the volume from the speakers, […]
Using the supplied W3 sender and receiver, follow the diagram below:
It’s not possible to completely disable Bluetooth, but when in Pair or Discovery mode (when the button is flashing) Pair mode will automatically turn off after 5 minutes. Your speaker/B1 will be undiscoverable to unpaired devices but will remain visible to any device previously paired, so you can easily connect and disconnect from your phone, […]
Your Bluetooth connection works by projecting the sound from your phone. So, if your ringtone volume is on, that sound will come through Bluetooth too. This is a simple fix by changing the phone’s ringtone settings to either vibrate or silent.
This sometimes happens when the speakers and turntable share the same surface. The vibrations from the speakers playing feedback into the turntables stylus, causing unwanted noise. The best way to mitigate this would be to place the speakers on a different surface. If that’s not an option, we’d recommend trying out some isolation stands. For […]
The battery won’t necessarily drain faster, but the 512 will not go into it’s “idle” mode while the mini jack is plugged in. This means the connection will stay active even if nothing is playing, so the battery is better preserved when using Bluetooth.
The LED in the power button will remain lit when the 512 is charging, but this does not mean it is powered on. If the light is on but there is no playback, press and hold the power button and you will hear it power on, then you’ll see the Bluetooth LED turn blue to […]
Yes, you can. The HD3 Next Gen speakers use a switching power supply so it will automatically convert to the different voltage. The power cable is also detachable which makes it convenient to replace the AC plug with a different type if you don’t want to use an adapter plug.
No, but for good reason! This is something we struggled with when developing the 512. Our engineers choose materials based on what will provide a high quality sound, and using water-resistant materials would have a negative effect on that. It was a tough decision to make, but if we have to compromise on something, sound quality […]
