How to Install a Bose Surround Sound Speaker

Bose is one of the leading sound system manufacturers, and designs numerous products to use in your home theater arrangement. Each part of the home theater setup is essential to the overall sound quality. Bose surround sound speakers are a vital element of this setup. The surround sound speakers must be installed in the proper location to create the effects desired.

Things You'll Need

• Bose surround speakers
• Home theater system

Instructions

1. Understand the concept of surround sound speakers. These speakers produce the small background noises that generate the feeling of being in the center of the action (surrounded). Proper placement of surround sound speakers is crucial to audio quality.

2. Determine the location to install your Bose surround sound speakers. These speakers should be located in the rear half of the room, one on each side. Each should be set at the same level as a seated listener's ear, or slightly above.

3. Obtain any additional accessories for your Bose surround sound speakers. Purchase any needed custom-designed wall brackets or floorstands, if needed. These may not be necessary in all cases.

4. Install the Bose surround sound speakers. Use the purchased speaker mounts (stands) or set the speakers in position in the designated location. Make sure you have enough speaker wire to reach.

5. Connect the other end of the speaker wire to the Bose home theater system. Test the surround sound speakers to ensure each works.

Tips & Warnings

• Consider the wiring involved and place it in spots that will hide it.

• Always place your Bose surround sound speakers on an even and sturdy surface. Vibrations may cause movement in the speakers.
