Setting Up

Select the locations for your 201

speakers

The following guidelines are intended to help you find the best sounding location for your

new speakers:

• Listen to both speaker sound patterns shown on page 4, Figure 1. Choose the one you

prefer.

1. First, aim the tweeters inward as shown in Figure 1, position 1. The tweeters are

directly behind the angle on the front of each speaker. Listen to music.

2. Next, aim the tweeters outward, as shown in Figure 1, position 2, by interchanging

the left and right speakers. Listen to the same passage of music.

• Place the speakers 4 to 12 feet (1.2 to 3.6 m) apart with the back of the speakers no

more than 18 inches (45 cm) from the rear wall.

• Leave at least 12 inches (30 cm) of space from the end of a speaker to the side wall.

• Leave at least 18 inches (45 cm) from the speakers to the floor and ceiling. Positions

closer to walls, floor, or ceiling will produce more bass.

• Avoid placing the speakers exactly halfway between the floor and ceiling.

Note:

Bose

AS-3 speaker stands or WB-3 wall brackets can extend your placement

options. See “Optional accessories” on page 10.

Caution:

201

speakers are specifically designed for placement on a stationary shelf,

table, or stand. Do not place them in a vertical position. On smooth surfaces like marble,

glass, or highly polished wood, vibrations may cause the speakers to slide. So be sure to

attach the self-adhesive rubber feet to the bottom surface of each speaker for added

stability and protection. The feet go in the corners of the flat surface, inside the seam.

To mount the speakers on a wall, use only the Bose WB-3 wall mounting bracket. Please

follow the mounting instructions that come with these brackets. Improperly mounted speak-

ers may fall, causing injury and damage. To contact Bose, please refer to the information

inside the back cover of this owner’s guide.

Do not use these speakers in a moving vehicle.
