Setting Up
Connecting the Acoustimass
®
module to your receiver or amplifier
The speaker wires without plugs connect the Acoustimass module to your receiver or amplifier. Your speaker system works with
receivers or amplifiers rated from 10 to 200 watts per channel with 4 to 8 ohm impedance. Refer to your receiver or amplifier
owner’s guide.
CAUTION: Incorrect wiring results in little or no bass output and could damage the system.
1. Connect the speaker wires to the INPUTS FROM AMP OR RECEIVER terminals on the Acoustimass module’s rear panel:
A. Connect the marked wire to the positive (+) terminal of the L (left) pair of input terminals.
B. Connect the unmarked wire to the negative (–) terminal of the L (left) pair of input terminals.
C. Repeat steps A and B with the other speaker wire for the R (right) pair of input terminals.

Before pluging in your receiver or amplifier:
• Ensure no strands of wire from any terminal are brushing against any other terminal. Such “bridged” wires create short circuits which
can damage your receiver or amplifier.
• Check all connections to avoid damaging your speakers. Make sure the speakers are connected to the module and not directly to the
amplifier or receiver.
Checking the system
With your amplifier and Acoustimass
®
module powered, your system should respond accordingly:
• With the balance control on your amplifier turned to the left, sound comes from the Acoustimass module and left speaker only.
• With the balance control turned to the right, sound comes from the Acoustimass module and right speaker only.
• With the balance control in the center position, music with bass should be the same or louder with the control in the center than to the
left or right.
If your system does not respond as described, check all the wires for proper positive to positive and negative to negative connections.
If your system still doesn’t respond properly, see “Troubleshooting” on page 8.
Understanding automatic system protection
When played at high volume, your Acoustimass systems’ automatic protection circuit activates to prevent damage to the system from
electrical stress or overload. When this happens, you may notice a slight decrease in volume. This indicates that the power input may
have exceeded safe levels. Setting the volume at or above this level for sustained periods is not recommended.
