SYSTEM PLACEMENT Dansk DEsepuatsñcohl FItralniaçnaois Nederlands Svenska English SYSTEM PLACEMENT Placement guidelines The information in this section shows you how to place your system in a room to create a home theater atmosphere (Figure 1). You should try to arrange your system as close to this as possible. Placing your speakers and Acoustimass® module properly is the first step to getting the full, rich Bose® quality sound this system is designed to provide. Figure 1 System placement example Left front Center Right front Left rear Right rear Acoustimass module Media center placement Place the media center on a flat, stable surface. Until your system is completely installed, it's a good idea to keep the media center positioned for easy access to its rear connection panel. • Do not block the front of the media center. Make sure you can see the display window on the right side and allow enough room to lift up the front door and open the CD/DVD tray. • Make sure there is space within 6 feet (1.8 m) behind it to place the VS-2 video enhancer. • Make sure the audio cables from your sound sources (cable/satellite box, DVR, VCR, or other) can reach the media center connection panel. • Make sure the 30 ft (9.1 m) audio input cable can reach from the media center connection panel to the Acoustimass module. VS-2 video enhancer You can place the VS-2 video enhancer directly behind the media center or on the floor, or mount it on a wall. See "Mounting the VS-2 video enhancer" on page 34. • Make sure the 6 ft (1.8 m) VS-2 cable can reach from the VS-2 to the media center. • Make sure video cables from your video sources (cable/satellite box, DVR, VCR, or other) can reach the VS-2 connection panel. 8
