GETTING STARTED

Building your entertainment system

The Acoustimass® 300 wireless bass module is part of a modular home entertainment system, and is compatible with the SoundTouch® 300 soundbar and optional Virtually Invisible® 300 wireless surround speakers (not provided).

Acoustimass® 300 wireless bass module Power cord

GETTING STARTED

Placement guidelines

To avoid wireless interference, keep other wireless equipment 1 – 3 ft. (0.3 – 0.9 m) away from the system. Place the system outside of and away from metal cabinets, other audio/video components and direct heat sources.

• Stand the bass module on its rubber feet along the same wall as your TV, or along any other wall in the front third of the room.

• Choose a stable and level surface. Vibration can cause the bass module to move, particularly on smooth surfaces like marble, glass or highly polished wood.

• Keep the front side of the bass module (the side opposite the POWER connector) at least 3 in. (7.6 cm) from any other surface. Blocking the port on the bottom of this side aects acoustic performance.

• For more bass, place the bass module close to walls and corners. For less bass, place the bass module away from walls and corners.

• Do NOT place any objects on top of the bass module.

• Make sure there is an AC (mains) outlet nearby.

Sample system placement

CAUTION: Do not place the bass module on its top or sides when in use.
