Bose Acoustimass AM-5 - Manual (Page 6)

In Case You Have a Problem
If you have a problem connecting and using your AM-5'' sys­
tem. try the procedures listed t>elow. The majority of prob­
lems usually occur in components other than the speakers.
Problem: Solution:
The led cube speaker array doesn't play or sounds distorted. Turn oH the amplifier or rececver. Check ihe wiring which
connects the cube speaker array to the Acoustimass'"
module, and the vnnng which connects the module to the
amplifier or receiver. If no visible problem is found, discon­
nect the wires a! the back ol the amplifier or receiver. Now
connect the left v/ires to the right amplifier terminals. Turn
the balance control on the receiver or amplifier completely
to the righi. and turn Ihe power on. If the left cube speaker
array novr works properly, the left channel of your amplifier
or receiver is probably defective.
CAUTION: Do not connect the other cube speaker
array to the channel in question. If the amplifier or
receiver channel is defective, damage to your AM-5
system might occur.
The right cube speaker array doesn't play or sounds
distorted.
Use the same procedure as given lor the left cube speaker
array, but substitute the words "left" lor ’nghl" and "righr
lor *lefl"
The whole AM-5 system does not play or sounds distorted. Turn oil the receiver or amplifier and disconnect the AM-5
^em. Reconnecl the AM 5 ^em to another receiver or
amptifier known to be working properly. If the AM-5 system
now works property, the problem is not in the AM-5 system.
Note: If this is the case, you should check ail user acces­
sible fuses on your receiver or amplifier (see the appropn
ate owner's guide for help). If the fuses blow again, have
the amplifier or receiver checked by qualified personnel.
