Placing the speaker
When using your SoundLink® Wireless Mobile
speaker indoors, the tonal quality can vary
depending on where the speaker is placed
in a room. When moving the speaker around
within a room or from room to room, keep the
following guidelines in mind:
• The speaker is designed to sound best
when placed on a shelf, counter, desk, or
tabletop that is 24 to 48 inches high.
• For best bass response, the speaker should
be placed near a wall; bass response
decreases as the speaker is placed closer
to the center of a room.
• When operating the speaker, always use the
cover as a stand. Do not lay the speaker on
its back. Sound is emitted from both the
front and rear of the unit.
10
• The speaker should not be placed in small
areas that are enclosed on all sides except
the front, as this will adversely affect sound
quality.
• Do not place the speaker on wet or dirty
surfaces. Doing so could transfer dirt, sand,
or moisture onto the speaker when the
cover is closed.
If you are using your speaker outdoors, you
should expect the tonal quality to change as
you move farther from the speaker.
