Setting Up
Selecting a location for your music system and changer
The Acoustic Wave® multi-disc changer is designed to fit right under your Acoustic Wave® music system. Before you connect the two, however, select a good location for the stacked units.
CAUTION: Setting up the two units separately (on different shelves of an entertainment center, for example) is not recommended. Doing so will prevent proper communication between the two and will adversely affect operation.
When choosing the location, remember that the tonal quality of your Acoustic Wave® music system, as with any high-performance sound system, will vary with room placement.
Feel free to try different locations, but keep in mind that…
•The Acoustic Wave® music system is designed to sound best when placed on a shelf, counter, desk, or table top, 30 to 48 inches (75-120 cm) from the floor.
•The CD player in the Acoustic Wave® music system needs an allowance of several inches for the CD cover on top of the music system to open.
•The music system should be near the horizontal center of a wall and 6 inches (15 cm) or less from the surface behind it.
•To increase the bass response, move the unit toward any corner of the room; to decrease bass response, move it away from the corner.
Seating your Acoustic Wave® music system on the multi-disc changer

1.Place the multi-disc changer in the location you have chosen, following the guidelines above.
2.Carefully seat your Acoustic Wave® music system on top of the changer (Figure 2a). Make sure that it sits flat and the side edges of both units are aligned (Figure 2b).
Note: The music system slips onto raised guides on top of the changer.

CAUTION: Maintaining a clear optical path between the multi-disc changer and the music system, shown in Figure 2(b), is important. When the changer is turned on, it sends infrared (IR) signals that also turn on the music system. If those signals are blocked, there may be no sound when the changer is playing.
