6. Position the Stereo Targeting - arrays vnth your audio
or video system to suit your musical taste and location
preferences. In average si¿ed listening rooms, the best
slereophortic effects result when the left and right Stereo
Targeting arrays are spaced 6 to 12 leet apart (appmxi-
maieiy 1.8-3.6 m). However, you can slill achieve excel'
kit results with separation as great as 15 feel
ppproximalely 4.5 m).
Note: For video applications, separation will vary to allov/
the Stereo Targeting • arrays lo be located on each side of a TV
or monitor. For more information on video applications, see
Part Dot this section.
C. The Acou^imass' module can be located virtually any
where in your listening room (Figure 1)in either a vertical
or horizontal position. Its unique Acoustimass speaker
technology delivers room filling bassirom almost any
where. Feel tree to hide the Acoustimass module under a
bed or table, or even behind a sofa. JusI remember not to
block the two round openings in the end of the unit. \bu
should allow at least 2 inches (approximately 5 cm) of
open space between these openings and the v/all or
olher surface.
Unlike conveniional itoorsianding or bookshelf speakers,
you can line lune the bass response oi your SE-6 system
wilhoul compromising accurate stereo imaging. Just
change the location ol the Acoustimass module within
your listening room. For typical listening environments,
positioning the module along a v/all 3 lo 5 leet (appmxi-
mately 1 to 1.5 meters) Imm a corner provides a normal
balance of frequencies from your SE-5 system. Moving
the module closer lo the walls andfor corners ol your
room will increase bass response, while moving il lov/ard
the center of your mom will decrease it. In most rooms, it
should be reasonably easy to choose a location which is
convenient, yet provides fusing bass response.
|ie Stereo Targeting arrays ol your S€-5 system are mag
Iriicaiiy shielded for use with video systems. This allovrs
you to position the arrays close lo your TV or monitor
without adversely alfecling the picluie quality (as hap
pens with conveniional. nonshi^ded speakers). Refer
loFrgure2.
Note: The Acou^imass module itsell is nol magnetically
shielded and should be placed at least three leet away from
your monitor lo avoid inierlerence.

system, unplug your receiver or amplifier from the

A. Locale the wires which were packed with the system. Vbu
will lind four identical sets. Two sets connect the Stereo
Targeting arr^s lo the Acoustimass module, v/hile the
other two sets connect the Acoustimass module to your
