Speaker placement

Surround speakers

The surround (rear) speakers create an area of sound around the listener. Place them in the back half of your room. Direct the cubes so that you do not pinpoint the exact location of the sound source (Figure 3). The surround cables allow the speakers to be placed up to 50 feet (15.2 m) from the Acoustimass® module.

Alternate position

CAUTION:

Do not cover the ventilation openings of the Acoustimass module. The slots on the end provide ventilation for the built-in electronic circuitry.

Acoustimass module

Follow these guidelines to select a location for the Acoustimass module.

CAUTION: To avoid interference with the TV picture, place the module at least 18 inches (45 cm) from the TV.

1.Place the module along the same wall as the TV, or close to the same end of the room as the front speakers (see the example along the front wall in Figure 3).

2.Select a position for the module (Figure 4). For proper ventilation, place it on the long edge, with the connectors facing the floor. An alternate position is on its largest side, with the bass and treble controls facing up. Do not place the module on either end, as shown by the last two views in Figure 4.

Note: Once you have selected a position for the module, place the four self-adhesive rubber feet near the corners of the bottom surface. The rubber feet provide increased stability and protection from scratches.

3.Select a convenient location – under a table, behind a sofa. Do not allow furniture or drapes to block the ventilation openings of the module.

4.Place it within reach of the audio input cable, speaker cables, and an electric outlet.

5.Aim the port (the round opening) into the room or along the wall to avoid blocking the port or creating too much bass.

6.For best bass performance, do not place the module so that the port is at equal distances from any two walls or from a wall and the ceiling.

Music center

Select a location for the music center.

CAUTION: Be sure the three shipping screws on the bottom of the music center have been removed before proceeding.

1.Place the music center on a level surface. Allow enough room to lift the door and to access the headphone jack on the right side panel.

2.Place the music center close enough to the sound sources (TV, VCR, etc.) to allow for cable length. If you need additional audio and/or video cables to connect all of your components, see your dealer or call Bose® customer service.

3.Place the music center within 30 feet (9.1 m) of the Acoustimass module (the length of the audio input cable).
