Connect the Acoustimass module to the media center with the audio input cable (Figure 11).
Note: Be sure that each connector is fully inserted into each jack.
1. You may find it easier to insert the power adapter cord into the media center first. Do not
plug the other end into an AC (mains) power outlet until all connections are completed.
2. Plug the small black multi-pin connector (flat side up) into the Speakers jack labeled
"Main" on the back of the media center.
3. Insert the telephone-style RJ-45 connector on the other end of the audio input cable into
the Audio INPUT jack on the Acoustimass module. When properly inserted, it locks in
place.
Note: An antenna is built into the media center power cord; be sure to unwrap the power
cord for the best remote control operation (Figure 11).
Note: Refer to "Expanding your system to other rooms" on page 32 for information on con-
necting a second room.
