^ Room Acouslics-As with any speater system, the
^ acoustics (s»jf>d properties) of your listening room can
affect (he overall sound quality of your AM-5 ^stem. The
lofiowing tips will give you some control over the sys
tem’s sound;
1. Rooms with a lot of sound absorbing furnishings
such as stuffed furniture, wall-to-wall carpet, or heavy
drapes may reduce the treble sound (high frequen
cies) of your AM-5 ^stem. The missing treble sound
can be restored by slightly turning up the treble con
trol on your amplifier or receiver. It convenient, you
may instead remove some of the sound absorbing
furnishings.
2. Roomswith too few sound absorbing furnishings,
especiaify those with bate floors and walls, may
sound overly shrill or “brighr because of too much
irebie. Turning down the treble control or adding
sound absorbers such as throw carpets or drapes wit!
usually solve this problem.
3. If your system seems to have too much or too
little bass (low frequencies), you can adjust it using
the bass control on your amplifier or receiver. As
described previously, you may also move the Acousti-
mass’' modute closer to a wall and/or corner to
increase bass, or closer to the center of (he room to
decrease it.
4. In general, many problems with acoustics can be
solved by the judicious use of your tone controls.
Remember, though, that the use of these controls
(e^eciaily when turned all the way up) may put
\ greater pov/er demands on your receiver or ampfifier.
^ Excessive tone control use can cause an ampli-
tier or receiver to run out of power and distort,
potentially damaging your system.
5. External signal processors (such as graphic and para
metric equalizers), while not recommended, can be
used with your AM-5 system if a greater degree of
acoustic control is desired. Consult your Bose dealer
tor advice.
C. Maintenance-The cabinets of your AM S ^stem can
be easily cleaned with a damp clr^h and. if necessary, a
mild detergent such as dish soap. Do not allow liquids to
spifl through the gntle assemblies of the cube speaker
arrays, or in any way to enter the АсоизЬтазз*" module.
Do not attempt to clean your AM-5 system with any
solvents or chemicals.
The grille assemolies on the cube speaker arrays may be
carefully vacuumed if necessary. Please note tha the
drivers are located directty defend the grille cloth, and are
easily damaged if reasonable care is not taken, ^roid
applying any pressure with the vacuum nozzle.
