Connecting external components

Use standard RCA audio cables to connect other components to your Lifestyle® system’s multi-room interface, matching the red connector to R (right) and white (or black) connector to L (left).

You can use a Y-adapter (available at electronics stores) to connect a mono source. However, the left and right speakers then play the same monaural sound.

Video components

To play video sound through your Lifestyle® music system, connect the R and L fixed audio outputs of your stereo VCR, stereo TV, or DVD player to the interface VIDEO 1 or 2 jacks. See Figure 10. You can use a Y-adapter (available at electronics stores) to connect a mono source. However, the left and right speakers then play the same monaural sound.

Tape deck

To use an external tape recorder (analog audio cassette, analog open reel, digital audio tape, or Digital Compact Cassette), connect the inputs (REC) of the tape deck to the interface RECORD OUT jacks. Connect the outputs (PLAY) from the tape deck to the interface TAPE IN jacks. See Figure 10.

Laserdisc player or additional CD changer

To use one of these components, connect its audio outputs to the interface AUX jacks, matching the red plug to R (right) and black or white plug to L (left). See Figure 10.

Turntable

To connect a turntable, you need a phono preamplifier (with RIAA equalization). You can order the appropriate model (PN 252603) from Bose® Customer Service (See the inside back cover for locations and phone numbers.). Connect the audio outputs of the phono preamplifier to the interface AUX jacks, matching the red plug to R (right) and black or white plug to L (left).

Note: The Lifestyle® 40 music system cannot turn a connected component on or off.

40 specifications

The Bose 40 is an exceptional headphone model that offers an immersive audio experience, catering to audiophiles and casual listeners alike. Known for its remarkable sound quality, the Bose 40 incorporates advanced engineering and innovative technologies to deliver rich, balanced audio.

One of its standout features is the Active Noise Cancelling (ANC) technology. This system uses microphones inside and outside the ear cups to detect ambient noise, effectively cancelling it out for a serene listening environment. Whether you are commuting, traveling, or simply enjoying music at home, the ANC capability ensures you remain undisturbed by outside distractions.

The Bose 40 headphones also feature a proprietary TriPort Acoustic headphone structure, which enhances low-frequency performance without compromising mids or highs. This design ensures that users enjoy a full spectrum of sound, making every listening session a pleasure. The combination of dynamic drivers and a precise acoustic port embedded within the ear cups results in a sound that is both powerful and precise.

Comfort is a critical aspect of the Bose 40 design. The ear cups are crafted from soft materials that provide a snug fit, allowing for extended listening without discomfort. Additionally, the headband is carefully designed with cushioning, making these headphones suitable for prolonged use whether for work or leisure.

With Bluetooth connectivity, the Bose 40 headphones support seamless pairing with a wide array of devices, from smartphones to tablets and laptops. The headphone comes equipped with voice assistant integration, allowing quick access to Siri, Google Assistant, or Alexa. Users also appreciate the intuitive touch controls located on the ear cups, making it easy to play, pause, or skip tracks without needing to retrieve devices.

Battery life is another crucial feature, with the Bose 40 offering up to 20 hours of playback on a single charge. Rapid charging capabilities ensure that users can enjoy up to 3.5 hours of playtime with just a 15-minute charge, making it an excellent companion for on-the-go lifestyles.

In terms of build quality, the Bose 40 is sturdy yet lightweight, making it easy to carry around. The foldable design is perfect for travel, fitting neatly into protective carrying cases.

All these features come together to make the Bose 40 a leading choice in the headphone market, appealing to listeners who seek top-tier audio quality combined with comfort, modern technology, and longevity.
