Setting Up
Selecting the location for your speakers
Prior to installation, carefully select locations for your Free Space ® 51 speakers. The
speakers can be installed on almost any surface such as wood, concrete, or the ground.
When choosing a location, please keep the following guidelines in mind:

Speaker placement for
optimal coverage
• Select a level surface for your speakers. This will prevent movement or vibration during use.
• Place your speakers where the speaker cord cannot be tripped over, pinched, or pulled.
• Do not place your speakers in an area where water tends to collect.
• Do not bury your Free Space 51 speakers deeper than 1/2 inch (1.3 cm) (Figure 3a).
• Use wood screws to fasten the speaker to a wood surface, such as a deck, if desired
(Figure 3b).

Note:
If you want to connect two or more speakers to an Acoustimass
®
module or to other speakers,
please contact Bose Customer Service or a professional installer for assistance.
Choosing the speaker cord (not provided)
WARNING: Before running speaker cord through a wall or under ground, check your local
building code requirements, or contact an electrical installer.
• Use the proper gauge (thickness) of speaker cord. See “Cord recommendations” under
“Technical Information” on page 9 for proper gauge, or check with your authorized Bose ®
dealer.
• If your installation requires the cord to be buried in the ground, use direct-burial rated cable
or run the cord through a PVC piping channel. Always use moisture-resistant speaker cord.
• Place speakers and run cord before digging holes or burying cord.
• If you think your speaker cord may be exposed to salt water or water containing chemicals
such as chlorine or fertilizers, you may use a silicone caulking material as added protection
for the speaker connections.
