Setting Up
Note:
Now is a good time to record the serial number of the Acoustimass

module on page 3
of this guide and on your warranty card. It is a good idea to save all packing materials for
possible future use.

Placing your Acoustimass 10 Series II speakers to achieve realistic home
theater sound
The center speaker localizes action and dialogue on your screen. Sound from the center
speaker should seem to come from within the picture.
The left and right front speakers create a sound image wider than the screen that seems
natural to viewers sitting anywhere in the room.
The surround speakers add subtle sounds and special effects that expand the visual image,
bringing the viewer into the center of the action. The surround speakers should be positioned
to allow the sound to reach the viewer from both sides, rather than from directly behind.
You can place the front and center speakers near a TV screen with no picture interference,
because all of the cube speakers are magnetically shielded. You can use any of the five cube
arrays at any location.
The Acoustimass module is not magnetically shielded and should be at least 2 feet (.6 m)
from your screen, but at the same end of the room as the front and center speakers. Bose

Acoustimass speaker technology takes advantage of the fact that the source of bass sound is
difficult to locate, so you can hide the Acoustimass module conveniently out of sight.
