Operating Your Lifestyle® 40 Music System

Using the system with external components

Follow the instructions on page 11 for connecting components.

Turn on your component directly or by using its remote control. Press VOLUME ▲ or ▼ on your Personal™ music center to raise or lower the volume. Control all other functions at the source, referring to its owner’s manual if necessary. To begin, make sure the component is turned on and a tape, CD, DVD, laserdisc, etc. is loaded. If an external component sounds significantly louder or softer than other sources, see “Equalizing the volume levels of external sources” on page 29.

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

Turning the system on and selecting the component

Press VIDEO 1, VIDEO 2, AUX, or TAPE on your Personal music center to select the desired component. This turns your system on and selects the component connected to that input. If the system is already on, this button selects the component.

The appropriate display indicator appears when the system is on and the component is selected.

CAUTION: The magnetic field from the Acoustimass® module is not an immediate risk to your video tapes, audio tapes, and other magnetic media. However, you should not store tapes directly on or near the Acoustimass module.

Using a tape recorder with your system

If you are listening to any source except TAPE, the output signal of that source is directed to the RECORD OUT jacks.

Note: The ROOM outputs of the Lifestyle ® 40 system are designated by the letters A through D. In a multi-room system, the source that is playing in the room designated by the letter closest to the begining of the alphabet is sent to the RECORD OUT jacks.

You may also specify a source to be directed to the RECORD OUT jacks even if you are not listening to that source. To do this:

1.Select RECORD OUT with the MENU button. The words RECORD OUT are displayed under the source display area (Figure 31).

2.Select a source to record. The selected source appears in the source display area in place of the dashes (Figure 31). If you want to remove your RECORD OUT selection, press CLEAR. The dashes reappear.

The selected source stays on until you turn RECORD OUT off. If the CD changer is selected for RECORD OUT, it shuts off after 24 hours if you have not turned it off sooner.

3.When you are ready, set the tape deck to record.

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.
