Setting Up

Check the connections

Check all connections from the receiver to the Acoustimass® module and the module to the cube speakers (Figure 9). Make sure all speakers are connected to the proper terminals according to their position in your room. Also make sure the two speakers with black terminal tabs are connected as front speakers.

At the receiver, check that the wires are connected in phase (+ to + and – to –). Incorrect wiring can result in a total loss of Acoustimass module output.

Be sure to correct any wiring problems before you plug your receiver in and turn it on.

CAUTION:

Do not allow exposed wires to brush against each other; this could damage your receiver.
