Before you begin

Bose

Virtually Invisible

speaker technology allows you to enjoy lifelike home performances

from the very latest surround sound encoded movies, CDs, and television shows, without a

room full of speakers.

Your stereo VCR or stereo television sends the encoded program material to the surround

sound receiver, which interprets it by distributing various sounds to particular speakers.

Although the sound mix varies with different types of programs, dialogue is usually sent to

the center speaker while sounds from the left or right side of the picture go to the left or

right front speakers. Ambient sounds and special effects are directed to one or both of the

surround (rear) speakers. The unique, easy-to-hide Acoustimass

module delivers bass for

all channels. At any point in a surround sound performance, you may hear sound from all or

just a few of the speakers, but the overall experience puts you in the center of the action.

To select surround-encoded program material, look for any of the terms Surround, Dolby

Surround, and the double-D symbol * on tapes and discs, and the

word “surround” preceding a TV broadcast. Your Acoustimass-10 home theater speakers

are also compatible with Dolby AC-3 receivers and program material. The special settings

for Dolby Surround and AC-3 are described on page 11.

You can also enjoy a wide variety of stereo programming that is not surround-encoded with

your Acoustimass-10 speakers. Simply adjust your receiver accordingly.

Setting Up

* Dolby and the double-D symbol are trademarks of Dolby Laboratories Licensing Corporation.
