Select the location for your speaker system
When you place your speakers according to the guidelines below, a combination of reflected
and direct sound provides a good stereo image virtually everywhere in the room. You may
experiment with the placement and orientation of the cubes and the Acoustimass
®
module to
produce the sound most pleasing to you.
To adjust your system for the characteristics of your listening room, see Fine-tuning your
system on page 16.
Speaker locations
Follow these guidelines to select locations for your Acoustimass 5 or 20 speaker system.
The
speaker cables allow up to 20 feet (6.1 m) distance from the Acoustimass module.
1. For the most lifelike sound, place the cube arrays 6-12 feet (1.8-3.6 m) apart. They can be
as close as 3 feet (0.9 m) or as far apart as 15 feet (4.6 m).
2. Direct one cube of each array forward. Direct the other cube toward the wall or in a
different direction to create reflected sound. (See the illustration of reflected sound pat-
terns in Figure 2.)

CAUTION:
Choose a stable and level surface for your speakers. Vibration can cause the
speakers to move, particularly on smooth surfaces like marble, glass, or highly polished
wood. For additional stability, you can add rubber feet to your speakers. You may obtain
rubber feet (part no. 178321) free of charge from Bose
®
. Contact Bose Customer Service for
more information.
Note:
If you put the speakers in a bookcase unit, be sure to place each one at the front
edge of the shelf. Placing speakers in an enclosed space can change the tonal quality of the
sound. This effect is minimized if the shelves are filled with books.
Note:
The cube speakers are magnetically shielded so you can place them close to a
TV without affecting picture quality.
