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 cannot pinpoint the exact location of the sound source (Figure 3). The surround cables allow up to 50 feet (15.2 m) distance from the Acoustimass® module.
