Setting Up

Acoustimass

module

Follow these guidelines to select a location for the Acoustimass module.

Note:

To avoid interference with the TV picture, place the Acoustimass module at least

18 inches (45 cm) from the TV.

1. Place the Acoustimass module along the same the wall or close to the same end of the

room as the Jewel Cube

speakers (see the example along the front wall in Figure 3).

2. Select a convenient location – under a table, behind a sofa. Do not allow furniture or

drapes to block the ventilation openings of the module.

3. Place the Acoustimass module within reach of the audio input cable, speaker cables, and

an AC power (mains) outlet.

4. Select a position for the Acoustimass module (Figure 4). For proper ventilation, place it on

the long edge, with the connectors facing the floor. An alternate position is on its largest

side, with the bass and treble controls facing up. Do not place the module on either end,

as shown by the last two views in Figure 4.

5. Once you have selected a position for the module, place the four self-adhesive rubber feet

near the corners of the bottom surface. The rubber feet provide increased stability and

protection from scratches.

6. Aim the port (the round opening) into the room or along the wall to avoid blocking the port

or creating too much bass.

7. For best bass performance, do not place the port at equal distances from any two walls or

from a wall and the ceiling.

CAUTION:

Do not cover the ventilation openings of the Acoustimass module. The slots on

the end provide ventilation for the built-in electronic circuitry, and should not be blocked.

CAUTION:

The magnetic field from the Acoustimass module is not an immediate risk to

your video tapes, audio tapes, and other magnetic media. However, you should not store

tapes directly on or near the Acoustimass module.

Multi-room interface

Select a location for the multi-room interface. It may be placed out of sight if you like.

1. Place the multi-room interface within 30 feet (9.1 m) of the Acoustimass module (the

length of the audio input cable).

2. Place the multi-room interface close enough to the sound sources (TV, VCR, DVD, etc.) to

allow for cable length. If you need additional audio and/or video cables to connect all of

your components, see your dealer or call Bose

Customer Service.

CD changer

Select a convenient location for the CD changer.

1. Place the CD changer on a level surface. Allow enough room to lift the door.

2. Place the CD changer close enough to the multi-room interface to allow for cable length

of 6 feet (2 m).
