Setting Up

Before you begin

We appreciate your choice of the Bose® Acoustimass® 6 Series III or Acoustima ss 10 Series III
home entertainment speaker system.
Bose Virtually Invisible® speaker technology allows you to enjoy lifelike home performances
from the very latest surround-sound encoded movies, CDs, and television shows, without a
room full of speakers. The cube speakers, along with the power ed Acoustimass module,
reproduce the full-spectrum of sound fr om multi-channel digital programming. Integrated
Signal Processin g ass ur es full bass p erformance fr om all chann els, at audible listen ing lev els,
regardless of your receiver sett ings.
Your stereo VCR, st er eo televi sion, or DVD player s ends the en coded pr og ram materi al to the
surround-sound receiver, which interprets and distributes the information to the powered
Acoustimass module. The module delivers the bass for all channels and sends appropriate
sounds to each cube spe aker. Th e sou nd mi x var ies wit h d if fe r e nt p rogram types: dialogue is
usually sent to the center cube speaker, a visual soundsta g e is created by the left and right
front cube speak ers, and you feel as i f you ar e in the center of t he action because sou nds and
special effects are directed to the rear cube speakers. At a given point in a surround-sound
performance, you may hear sound from one, a few, or all of the cube speakers.
To select surround-encoded program material, look for the terms Surround, Dolby Surround,
the double-D symbol
ing a TV broadcast. Your system is compatible with home theater receivers. You can also
enjoy a wide variety of stereo programming that is not surround-encoded.

Placing your speakers to achieve realistic home th eater sound
A suggested home theater layout is shown in Figure 2. You may want to place the speakers
differently to take advantage of the sound characteristics of different rooms. Here are some
suggested guidelines for placing your speaker system:
• The cube speakers are identical and can be used for any channel.
• Each of the Acoustimass cube speakers is magnetically shielded to prevent interference with a TV picture.
• In the Acoustimass 10 system, the top and bot tom sect ions of the cube sp eaker arra ys can be rotated to create room-filling sound patterns (
Figure 3).
•Bose® wall brackets and floo r stands can extend your placement options. See “Accesso­ries” on page 17. Please follow wall bracket instructions carefully. Proper mounting will ensure optimum performance and safety from your sy stem.

Front center cube speaker
The front center cu be speaker localizes action and dialogue on your screen. Sound should seem to come from within the picture.
• Place the front center cube speaker above, below, or on top of your television. If below, be sure that it is not supporting the weight of the television in any way.
• Keep the front cube speaker as c lose to the ve rtical c enter of the s creen as possib le, for the most accurate dialogue reproduction.
CAUTION: Choose a stable and level surface for your cube speakers. Vibration can cause them to move, particularly on smooth surfaces like marble, glass, or highly polished wood. If you are placing the center cube speaker on top of your television, use the set of four rubber feet provided. You may obtain additional rubber feet (part number 178321-04), free of charge, by contacting Bose tem.

Setting Up
Front left and right cube speakers
The front left an d right speak er arrays create a s ound image wid er than the scree n that seems natural to viewers sitting anywhere in the room. You can place the speaker arrays near a TV screen with no picture interference. Place the front cube arrays on either side of your TV, at least 6 feet (2 m), or as much as 15 feet (5 m) apart (see
Rear cube speakers
The rear, or su rround , cube spe akers add discr ete soun ds and sp ecial ef fects that expan d the visual image, bringing the viewer into the center of the action. The rear cube speakers may carry dialogue as well.
• Position the left and right rear cube speakers to allow the sound to reach the viewer from both sides, rather than from directly behind (see
• Place the rear cube speakers at ear height or higher, if possible.
For the Acoustimass® 10 system, rotate the top and bottom sections of the rear cube speaker arrays to direct the sound to the front and back of the listener (see
For the Acoustimass 6 system, aim the rear cube speakers slightly behind the listener or reflect the sound off the rear wall (see
Figure 3).
Powered Acoustimass module
Bose® Acoustimass speaker tech nology takes advantage of the fact that the source of pure bass sound is difficult to locate, so you can hide the powered Acoustimass module conve niently out of sight. Place the module at the same end of the room as the television monitor.

Powered Acoustimass module placement

• You may hide the module behind furniture, but do not block the opening. Be sur e there are at least 2 inches (5 cm) between the opening and any surface.
• If the opening faces the wall it increases the bass; if it faces away it decreases the bass.
CAUTION: To prevent interference, keep the module at least 2þfeetþ(.6 m) from your TV set.
Note: Placing the module horizontally, or on its
side, may reduce ventilation, inhibiting its ability to play at full output for extended periods of time.

Connecting the Acoustimass module to power

Note: Bose® recommends using a quality surge suppressor on all electronics equipment. Volt-
age variations and spikes can damage electronic components in any system. A quality sup­pressor can eliminate the vast majority of failures attributed to surges and may be purchased at an electronics store.
After you have checked al l s yst em co nnec tion s, p lug t he po wer cord of the powered Acousti ­mass module into an AC (mains) receptacle. Your Acoustimass speaker system will turn on and off automatically as it receives a signal from your surround receiver.

For realistic home theater sound

LFE
CAUTION: The Acoustimass® 6 and Acoustimass 10 speaker systems incorporate an auto- matic protection circuit, which guards against most kinds of damage from electrical stress or overload. This circuit activates at high volume levels to reduce output, causing a slight decrease in volume. This is normal operation and indicates that power input may be exceed ing safe levels. Sustained listening at these levels is not recommended.

Adjusting the LFE level (low frequency effects)

The LFE level control on your powered Acoustimass module increases or decreases the rela­tive level of low frequency effects on movie soundtracks. Use it to regulate the presence of these underlying deep bass sounds. Use the “test ton e s” feature in your digital surround
LFE
sound receiver to match the volume levels for each of the cube speakers. Then use the LFE
BASS
control on the Acoustimass module to match the volume of the LFE channel to the cube speaker channels.

Adjusting the bass/room compensation level

This feature will allow you to fine-tune your system aft er you have placed the Acoustimass
BASS
module in your sel ect ed l oca ti on. If th e room sounds “thin” or lac ks b ass , t urn the BASS con trol in a clockwise direction to increase the bass level of the module. If the room sounds “boomy” or has too much bass, turn the knob in a counter-clockwise rotation to reduce the bass level of the modu le. The fact ory or deten t setting is appr opriate for a majority of listenin g situations.

Setting your digital surround sound receive r

Your Acoustimass 6 or Acoustimass 10 speakers are compatible with the output from digital surround receivers. Integrated Signal Processing assures full bass reproduction for all chan nels regardless of receiver settings. However, the following table suggests a set of recom­mended receiver s et tin gs. Th e cube spe ak er ar ray s shou ld be set to LARGE in th e receiver's digital display men u. The LFE, or subwoofer, is set to ON.
