System Setup
Placing the Acoustimass
®
module
• Place the Acoustimass
®
module within reach of the cable from the music center and an AC
(mains) power outlet.
• Place the module at the same end of the room as the TV and the speakers (Figure 4).
• Keep the module at least 3 feet (1 meter) away from the TV to prevent the module from
interfering with the TV screen.

Acoustimass module
placement
• Attach the medium-sized rubber feet to the bottom of each foot on the module. The rubber
feet provide increased stability and protection from scratches.
• Choose a convenient location such as under a table, behind a sofa or chair, or behind
drapes, but do not block the port opening.
• Aim the port of the module into the room or along the wall. This prevents a blocked port or
over-powering bass.
• Stand the Acoustimass module on its feet. Do not lay it on its side or stand it on either end
(Figure 5).

CAUTION: Do not block the openings on the back of the module, which provide ventilation for
the built-in circuitry.
CAUTION: The Acoustimass module generates a magnetic field. Although this is not an immedi-
ate risk to your video tapes, audio tapes, and other magnetic media, you should not store any of
these items directly on or near the module.
