Room

Acoustics

As

with

any

speaker

system.

the

acoustics

(sound

properties)

of

your

listening

room

can

affect

the

overall

sound

quality

of

your

system.

These

tips

will

give

you

some

control

over

the

system's

sound:

1.

If

your

system

seems

to

have

too

little

or

too

much

bass

(low

frequencies),

you

can

move

the

Acoustimasse

module

closer

to

a

wall

and/or

corner

to

increase

bass,

or

closer

to

the

center

of

the

room

to

decrease

it,

as

described

earlier.

You

can

also

adjust

the

bass

by

using

the

bass

control

on

your

amplifier

or

receiver.

2.

In

general,

many

problems

with

acoustics

can

be

solved

by

speaker

placement,

or

by

the

judicious

use

of

your

tone

controls.

Remember,

though,

that

the

use

of

these

controls

(especially

when

turned

all

the

way

up)

may

put

greater

power

demands

on

your

receiver

or

amplifier.

Excessive

tone

control

use

can

cause

an

amplifier

or

receiver

to

run

out

of

power

and

distort,

which

could

potentially

damage

your

system.

3.

While

they

are

not

recommended,

external

signal

processors

(such

as

graphic

and

parametric

equalizers)

can

be

used

with

this

Acoustimass

system,

if

you

desire

a

greater

degree

of

acoustic

control.

Consult

your

Bose'

dealer

for

advice.

Maintenance

You

can

easily

clean

your

Acoustimass

Bass

System

with

a

damp

cloth

and,

if

necessary,

a

mild

detergent

such

as

dish

soap.

Do

not

allow

liquids

to

enter

the

Acoustimass

module.

Do

not

attempt

to

clean

your

system

with

any

solvents

or

chemicals.
