Variable Output
The A5+ includes a variable preamp audio output so you can connect a subwoofer, other Audioengine powered
speakers, or an Audioengine wireless adapter to daisy-chain music to other systems around the house. This output
is variable (adjustable) so the volume level can be controlled from the A5+ front panel or remote control.
USB Power
The USB port allows you to power and charge your iDevice (iPod, iPhone, iPad, etc.), Audioengine wireless
adapters, or any USB powered product through the USB connector on the rear panel.
Note that this is for power only, not USB audio or data transfer.
Stand Mounting
Threaded 1/4″-20 brass inserts are included on the bottom of each speaker cabinet to provide the ability to attach the
speakers to freestanding floor stands. These inserts, however, are not designed to support the full weight of the
speakers and therefore should not be used with single-point wall or ceiling mounts.
Important Safety Note: It is the customer’s responsibility to check with the stand manufacturer to determine whether
that specific stand is capable of handling the weight and proportions of these speakers in a safe and stable manner.
The customer is also responsible for proper selection of mounting hardware not included with the speaker and for
proper assembly. Audioengine disclaims any liability for the selection of suitable floor stands and/or correct hardware
between the selected stand and these speakers.

Troubleshooting
Front panel power indicator is not illuminated
Verify that the AC power cord is firmly connected to the A5+ rear panel and to an AC power outlet.
Check that the AC power outlet is supplying power.
Verify that the rear panel power switch is in the ON position.
Be sure the rear panel voltage selector matches the operating voltage in your area.
Check the fuse in the rear panel. If the fuse needs to be replaced it is important to replace with same fuse type
and value.
Verify that the A5+ and your source components are all powered on and the volume levels are not set to
minimum.
Front panel indicator light is on solid, but no sound
Be sure the A5+ is not in MUTE or SLEEP mode (front panel indicator light flashing)
Check cables to and from your audio sources to make sure they are working and firmly connected at both ends.
Sound through one speaker only
heck speaker wire connections from the left (powered) speaker to the right (passive) speaker. Confirm by
removing the speaker wire from on each speaker and reconnecting.
Check that the cables from your audio sources to the A5+ are properly connected. Confirm by unplugging the
audio cables and reconnecting.
If using a computer, verify that the audio output balance setting is centered.
Lack of bass or poor imaging
Check speaker wire polarity by verifying that the wires are going to same terminals on both speakers.
Make sure the speakers are not too close to a wall or other obstruction, which could limit bass output.
Check the EQ or sound settings on your audio source.
