Connecting The Speakers - Bose Acoustimass 10 Owner's Manual

Connecting the speakers
The supplied cables make it easy for you to connect your system. The connections at the
Acoustimass module are already made for you. There are three sets of cables, joined
together to form ribbons, which may be separated or "unzipped" as much as needed to
comfortably reach the speakers (Figure 7). Separate the cables as you are laying out the
cable lengths.
• The 20 foot (6 m) cable with three pairs of wires connects the Acoustimass module to the
center, left, and right front cube speakers.
• The 50 foot (15 m) cable with two pairs of wires connects the Acoustimass module to the
left and right surround cube speakers.
• The 20 foot (6 m) cable with five pairs of wires connects the Acoustlmass module to the
outputs on the receiver. Separate these wires just enough to reach the connectors.
