Checking The Connections - Bose Acoustimass 6 series Guia Del Usuario

To make the connections:
1.
Insert the multi-pin connector on the system input cable into the input connector on the Acoustimass
thumbscrews to secure the connection.
2. Connect each wire pair on the other end of the system input cable to your surround receiver, which should have audio output
terminals labeled:
• Right, Left, and Center for the front audio channels.
• Right Surround and Left Surround for the rear channels. The specific labels on your receiver may differ slightly.
CAUTION: Do not allow exposed wires to brush against each other; this could damage your receiver.
3. Carefully match the polarity of the connections (+ to + and – to –).
• Attach each red-collared wire (+) to the appropriate + terminal.
• Attach each plain wire (–) to the appropriate – terminal.
4. If applicable to your receiver, insert the RCA plug marked LFE on the system input cable into the LFE/SUBWOOFER OUT connector
on your surround receiver. Remove the cover first.

Checking the connections

Before plugging in the Acoustimass module, check all connections from the receiver to the module and the module to the speakers.
• Make sure all speakers are connected to the proper terminals according to their position in your room.
• Check to be sure all wires are connected to your surround receiver with the proper polarity (+ to + and – to – wires). Incorrect wiring
can result in a total loss of module output.
• Correct any wiring problems before you plug in your receiver and turn it on.
When all the connections check out, plug the power cord from the Acoustimass module into an AC (mains) outlet. Plug in the
receiver also.
Note: Bose recommends using a quality surge suppressor on all electronics equipment. Voltage variations and spikes can damage
electronic components in any system. Using a high-quality suppressor (available at electronics stores) can eliminate the vast
majority of failures caused by a power surge.
