Receiver considerations Bose' has engineered the vs-100".' speaker to work with surround sound receivers that provide an amplified center channel. If your receivers center channelisnotamplified,youcan still obtain full center channel performance. To do so, use an RCA cable to connect an amplifier to your receiver. Run the cable from the receiver's center channel RCA-type output terminal to the RCA-type input on the amplifier. Then connect the amplifier's output to the *enter channel speaker. On a stereo amplifier. there are two outputs. Use either one. The VS-103 speaker is designed for audio as well as video applications. Refer to your receiver owners guide for a description of audio operations. For the best speaker performance in video applications, be sure the Center mode (sometimes called Pro Logic mode) on your surround soundreceiver is set toNORMAL. (This is true regardless of the brand of receiver.) See Figure 4. Receiver display Testing and balancing your speakers Before testing for proper operation. plug your receiver and/or amplifier into the AC power outlet and turn on the power. The type of receiver you are using will determine the proper procedure for testing and adjusting speakers. On some receivers, you will test the center channel speaker separately. Others allow you to adjust all speakers, front and rear, using a special test mode. To ensure proper adjustment of the speaker volume balance, refer to the instructions in your receiver owner's guide.
