BEYOND THE BASICS

To add more rooms of sound

Your LIFESTYLE® system is capable of supplying up to 14 expan- sion rooms to fill your entire living space with Bose® sound.

There are numerous Bose products designed specifically for use in these expansion rooms, and some older Bose products can serve this purpose as well. Products from other suppliers may also fit into your whole-house solution. For each choice your approach may differ.

Bose® link products for expansion

Bose® link-enabled products have compatibility built in, making them easy to connect to your system and ready to respond to commands from your PERSONAL® music center II.

Examples Include the Bose SA-2 or SA-3 amplifiers that connect to a variety of Bose indoor and outdoor speakers. You can even use the Bose® link A cable supplied with each amplifier to connect multiple amplifiers together in a daisy chain arrangement for all 14 expansion rooms.

For details on setting up one or more amplifiers, refer to the owner’s guide provided with the amplifier.

Another example is the Bose® link 50-foot extension/expansion cable that allows you to connect a mix of amplifiers and amplified systems for sound in multiple expansion rooms. This cable con- nects at one end to the Bose® link jack on the LIFESTYLE® system media center, while the other end features a 4-jack connector for several amplifiers and one or more additional systems.

For the added systems, you can use a 3•2•1 Series II or 3•2•1 GS Series II system or the Wave® music system.

Connecting another Bose® link system

By choosing a Wave® music system, or a 3•2•1 Series II or 3•2•1 GS Series II DVD home entertainment system for expansion, you gain another set of sources to play, using your PERSONAL® music center II.

For either of these systems, you need to use the Bose® link B cable to make the connection.
