PROPRIETARY INFORMATION

BOSE ®ACOUSTIMASS®-7 (AM-7) TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

The system consists of three cube arrays and a bass module. The arrays contain the same
2-1/4" shielded twiddlersTM as the Acoustimass-5 Series II. Magnetic shielding allows
placement of the arrays near TV sets. By rotating one cube, the mid and high frequency
pattern can be tailored to the listeners preference. The bass module has two

5-1/4", unshielded woofers. It can be hidden anywhere and provides multi-directional bass.

TEST PROCEDURES

NOTES: Some of the test procedures require the user to access the woofers and /or
twiddlers. Refer to the Disassembly/Assembly Procedures section for specific
instructions.

Use the test setup in Figure 1 unless otherwise specified.
System Level Test Procedures
1. Woofer Rub and Tick Test

NOTE: This test applies to the left and right channels only. The woofers are not connected
to the center channel of the bass module.

Connect a sine wave oscillator to a power amplifier. Adjust the frequency of the oscillator to
10 Hz and the amplifier output to 10 Vrms. Connect the amplifier output to the left and
right channel input terminals on the AM-7 bass module (see Figure 1). No extraneous
noises such as rubbing, scraping or ticking should be heard.

NOTE: To distinguish between normal suspension noise or rub and ticks, remove the
terminal cap panel and displace the cone on each woofer slightly with your fingers. If the
noise can be made to go away or get worse, it is a rub or a tick and the woofer should be
replaced. If the noise stays the same, it is normal suspension noise and the woofer is fine.
Suspension noises will not be heard with program material.
