Selecting a location for the Wave/PC unit

Your Wave/PC unit includes a 15 ft (4.6 m) interface cable allowing for greater ﬂexibility in placement. Feel free to place and position the Wave/PC unit where you ﬁnd the sound most pleasing. However, keep these useful guidelines in mind when selecting its location:

Note: Do not place the Wave/PC unit very close to your computer monitor. Doing so will degrade AM/FM tuner reception.

•Make sure the Wave/PC unit is within reach (15 ft (4.6m)) of your computer.

•For best performance, place the Wave/PC unit at least 2 ft (61 cm) away from your typical seating position.

•Do not place your Wave/PC unit on top of the monitor.

•For best bass performance, locate your Wave/PC unit within 2 ft (61 cm) of a wall.

•Place the Wave/PC unit on a ﬂat surface.

•Do not place the Wave/PC unit on a metal surface. Doing so could degrade AM reception.
