Setting Up

Before you begin

Your 301® Series IV Direct/Reflecting® speakers re-create a natural balance of reflected and direct sound energy for an open, spacious performance. They are designed at Bose® to bring you high-quality listening pleasure.

The Direct/Reflecting® tweeter inside each speaker creates a pattern of sound similar to what you experience at a live concert. In addition, the Stereo Targeting® tweeters help establish the natural balance of sound, for full enjoyment of stereo even when you move around the room. These distinct left and right speakers also feature tuned port enclosures that contribute to their deep, room-filling bass. An advanced crossover design adds to the realism and clear definition of both musical instruments and voices.

Your 301 Series IV speakers are significantly different from conventional speakers, so be sure to read this owner’s guide. It will help you set up and use your speakers properly, for the greatest enjoyment.

Unpack the carton

Carefully unpack the carton and save all packing materials for possible future use. Check the carton contents (Figure 1).

If either speaker appears damaged, do not use them. Instead, repack both speakers in the original carton and notify your authorized Bose dealer immediately.

Note: Now is a good time to record the speaker serial numbers on page 2 of this guide and on your warranty card.
