Setting Up
Connect the speakers and Lifestyle ® music center
Once you have selected locations for your speakers and music center, connect the system.
Connecting the Jewel Cube TM speakers to the Acoustimass ® module
1. Insert the connector of each speaker cable fully into the jack on the rear of each speaker
(Figure 4). Match the ridge of the connector to the notch at the top of the jack.
2. Connect each 20-foot (6.1 m) cable to the corresponding left or right green jack on the
Acoustimass module. Speaker cables have green connectors at one end, with L (left)
and R (right) molded into the connectors.
To lengthen the cable, connect speaker wire with male phono (RCA) plugs on each end to
your supplied speaker cable. Use a female-to-female adapter (“barrel” connector). Or, splice
in 18-gauge (.75 mm
2 ) or thicker cord (connecting + to + and – to –). To purchase extension
wire, see your dealer, electronics store, or call Bose ® customer service.
Connecting the Acoustimass module to the Lifestyle ® music center
Connect the Acoustimass module to the music center with the audio input cable (Figure 5).
1. Plug the small black multi-pin connector into the jack marked SPEAKER ZONE 1 on the
back of the music center.
2. Insert the right-angle multi-pin connector on the other end of the audio input cable into
the AUDIO INPUT jack on the Acoustimass module. Align the connector at the angle
shown in Figure 5.
Note: Be sure that each connector is inserted completely into each jack.
3. Extend the audio input cable as much as possible, since it includes an antenna for the
remote control.
For information on connecting zone 2, see “Using two listening zones” on pages 19-20.
CAUTION:
Make sure all components of
your system are unplugged
from the AC power (mains)
source before you begin
connecting them.
