They are designed by Bose® to bring you high-quality listening pleasure. These speakers are significantly different from conventional speakers, so be sure to read this owner's guide. It will help you set up and use your speakers properly, for the greatest enjoyment. Unpack the carton Carefully unpack the carton and save all packing materials for possible future use. Check the carton contents (Figure 1). If either speaker appears damaged, do not use them. Instead, repack both speakers in the original carton and notify your authorized Bose dealer immediately. J' Note: Now is a good time to record the speaker serial numbers below and on your warranty card. A CAUTION: To avoid danger of suffocation, keep the plastic bags that wrap these speakers out of the reach of children. Figure 1 What comes in the carton 201 ® series V speakers 301 ® series V speakers For your records Serial numbers are located on the back of each speaker. Serial number: and Dealer name: Dealer phone: Purchase date We suggest you keep your sales slip and warranty card together with this owner's guide. 3 Setting Up Select the locations for your 201® or 301® speakers Bose® 201 and 301 speakers are designed to fit horizontally on a stable and level table or shelf (Figure 2). Place the left and right speakers (marked on the back of each one) on the left and right sides of your room, as you face them. Exactly where you put them depends on the size and style of your room and where you think they sound best. Feel free to experiment to find a location that is both convenient and provides the sound you prefer. J' Note: Because the grilles on the front of each speaker protect the drivers inside, we recommend that you do not remove them. /k CAUTION: 201 and 301 speakers are designed specifically for placement on a stationary shelf, table, or stand. On smooth surfaces like marble, glass or highly polished wood, vibrations may cause the speakers to slide. So be sure to attach the self-adhesive rubber feet to the bottom surface of each speaker for added stability and protection. The feet go in the corners of the flat surface, 1” back from the center of the curved front panel. Do not use these speakers in a moving vehicle. To mount the speakers on a wall, use only the Bose WB-3 wall mounting bracket. Please follow the mounting instructions that come with these brackets. Improperly mounted speakers may fall, causing injury and damage. Here are some basic guidelines below: • Leave at least 24 inches (60 cm) from the speakers to any TV screens or monitors. • Keep the back of the speakers within 18 inches (45 cm) of the wall behind them. Figure 2 Placement guidelines /k CAUTION: For the most realistic sound image, make sure the left speaker is placed on the left and the right speaker is on the right side of your room, as you face them. 4 Setting Up Choose the cord Prepare the cord It is important to use the proper gauge (thickness) of speaker cord. Wire recommendations Based on a maximum frequency response deviation of ± 0.5 dB Length 20 ft (6 m) 30 ft (9 m) 50 ft (15 m) Gauge 18 (0.82 mm2) 16 (1.3 mm2) 14 (2.1 mm2) Note: Before running the speaker cord through a wall or under a floor, check your local building code requirements and safety regulations. If necessary, contact an electrical installer for this information. Speaker cord consists of two insulated wires. The insulation around one wire is marked (striped, collared, or ribbed). At the ends of each cord, strip approximately V2 inch (12 mm) of insulation from both wires. Twist the bare end of each wire so loose strands will not touch across terminals. Be sure to connect each wire to the proper terminal (positive to positive and negative to negative). Note: It is sometimes difficult to distinguish wire markings. Inspect both wires carefully. 5 Setting Up Make the connections Just press the terminal tab on the back of each speaker to insert the appropriate wire (Figure 3). A CAUTION: Before making any connections, turn off your receiver and unplug it from the AC power (mains) outlet. Not doing so may result in damage to your system. /k CAUTION: Never use broken or frayed wiring, which can result in electrical shock or damage. Connect one speaker cord to your right speaker. • Attach each marked wire (+) to the appropriate (+) terminal. • Attach each plain wire (-) to the appropriate (-) terminal. Connect the other end of the same cord to the RIGHT SPEAKER OUTPUT of your receiver. • Attach each marked wire (+) to the appropriate (+) terminal. • Attach each plain wire (-) to the appropriate (-) terminal.
