Choosing locations for your speakers

Keep these guidelines in mind when choosing a location for each speaker:

Select a stable and level surface for each of the small speakers. !

Vibration can cause them to move, particularly on smooth surfaces like marble, glass, or highly polished wood. To prevent this problem, rubber feet are provided for attachment to the bottom of the center front speaker.

Note: You may order additional rubber feet, free of charge, by contacting Bose. Refer to the address list included in the carton.

The center front speaker is for use at the front of the room and near the center of your TV.

The cube speaker arrays in your system are identical and can be used interchangeably.

The top and bottom cubes of each speaker array can be rotated to create ! room-filling sound patterns (b and d).

All of the small speakers are magnetically shielded to prevent interference with a TV picture.

The Acoustimass® module should be at least 2 feet (.6 m) from your TV set to prevent ! interference.

The shape and size of your room and location of the furniture in it will affect your choice of speaker locations. Use the examples below as the basis, but not the rule, for your home ! theater setup.
