Setting Up

Placing the speakers

The product label on the back of each speaker indicates LEFT or RIGHT. For best acoustic

performance, place the left speaker on the left side as you face your speakers and place the

right speaker on the right side.

Keep the speakers 6 - 15 feet (1.8 - 6 m) apart and at least 10 inches (25 cm) from side walls

(see Figure 3).

It is important not to block the acoustic components at the rear of each speaker. To avoid

this, place each speaker at least 8 inches (20 cm) from the wall behind it.

speakers are not intended to hang from walls, or to stand on shelves or

tables. They are designed as floor-standing speakers only.

WARNING: To prevent personal injury, do not place your speakers in high-traffic areas where

they can be accidentally knocked over.

Note: To prevent interference with your TV picture quality, place each speaker at least 2 feet

(.6 m) from your TV screen.

Choosing the speaker cord

It is important to use the proper gauge (thickness) of speaker cord. Standard zip cord (2-con-

ductor, 18-gauge or .82 mm

wire or larger) is recommended for most applications. You can

find this wire at most electrical and hardware stores.

If the length of speaker wire extends more than 20 feet (6 m) from a receiver or amplifier, refer

to “Wire recommendations” on

page 9 or contact your authorized Bose dealer for more infor-

mation.

Running the speaker cord through a wall or under a floor

Make sure you have enough cord to reach from the receiver to each speaker. For in-wall

installation, check your local building code requirements. Before proceeding, you may want

to contact an electrical installer for information about your local building or safety regulations.
