Bose Acoustimass 15 Series II Owner's guide - Page 12

Setting Up Checking the connections Check all connections from the receiver to the Acoustimass® module and from the module to the cube speaker arrays (Figure 5 and Figure 6). Make sure all cube speaker arrays are connected to the proper terminals according to their position in your room. Check that all wires are connected to your surround receiver in phase (+ to + and - to -). Incorrect wiring can result in a total loss of module output. Correct wiring problems before you plug your receiver in and turn it on. Connecting the Acoustimass module to power Note: Bose® recommends using a quality surge suppressor on all electronics equipment. Voltage 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 all system connections, plug the power cord of the powered Acoustimass 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.
