Connecting the cube speaker arrays to the Acoustimass
®
module
Each speaker cable contains two wires. The wire marked with a red collar is positive (+) and
the plain one is negative (–). These wires match the positive (red) and negative (black) termi-
nals on the back of each speaker. To lengthen the cable, use standard RCA extension cables
or splice in 18-gauge or thicker cord (connecting + to + and – to –). To purchase cables, see
your dealer, electronics store, or call Bose
®
customer service.
1. Match the correct cable to the corresponding speaker location.
• Speaker cables have blue connectors at one end, with L and R molded into the
connectors.
• The red collars on the + wire are labeled LEFT and RIGHT.
2. Connect the wire end of one speaker cable to the terminals on the rear of the matching
cube speaker array.
a. Press the terminal tab on the back of the cube array to insert the marked wire into the
red terminal and the plain wire into the black terminal. Release the tab to secure the
wire.
b. Repeat this step for each of the cube speaker arrays. (See Figure 4.)

CAUTION:
Make sure no strands of wire from any terminal touch any other terminal.
Bridged wires create short circuits that affect proper operation of your system.
3. Connect each cable to the corresponding left or right blue jack on the Acoustimass
module.
