Placing the Acoustimass® module

Consider the guidelines below when choosing a location for the Acoustimass® module.

Make sure to place it:

within reach of the cables to the music center and an AC (mains) power outlet

at the same end of the room as the TV and the speakers (Figure 6)

a minimum of 3 feet (1 meter) from the TV, to prevent interference from the module, which is not magnetically shielded

3' (1 m) minimum

Attach the medium-sized rubber feet to the bottom of each foot on the module. The rubber feet provide increased stability and protection from scratches.

CAUTION: The Acoustimass module generates a magnetic field. Although this is not an immediate risk to your video tapes, audio tapes, and other magnetic media, you should not store any of these items directly on or near the module.

Keep the port and ventilation openings free and unimpeded:

Choose a location that is convenient (under a table, behind a sofa or chair, screened by drapes) but will not block the ventilation openings of the module.

Aim the port of the module into the room or along the wall. This prevents a blocked port or over-powering bass.

Stand the Acoustimass module on its feet. Do not lay it on its side or stand it on either end (Figure 7).

CAUTION: Do not block the openings on the back of the module, which provide ventilation for the built-in circuitry.
