Bose> 301 speakers are designed to fit horizontally on a table or shelf (Figure 2) Be sure to
choose a stable and level surface for each speaker
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
Note:
Because the grilles on the front of each speaker protect the drivers inside,
we
recommend that you do not remove the grilles
Here are some basic guidelines
•
Place the speakers 4 to 12 feet (1 to 4 m) apart
•
Choose a stable and level surface for each speaker, and attach the rubber feet
•
Leave at least 12 inches (30 cm) of space from the end of a speaker to the side wall
•
Leave at least 18 inches (45 em) from the speakers to the floor or ceiling
•
Leave at least 24 inches (60 cm) from the speakers to any
N
screens or monitors
•
Keep the back of the speakers within 18 inches (45 cm) of the wall behind them
•
Do not place the speakers exactly halfway between the floor and ceiling or any other
sound-reflecting hard surface
•
Do not put the speakers in a vertical position
Note: Bose
speaker stands can extend your placement options See "Optional accesso-
ries" on page

corners of the flat surface,
inside the seam
