Speakers in your Bose® Acoustimass® 16 Series II or Acoustimass 15 Series III system are fully compatible with the audio output of digital surround receivers. The system’s integrated signal processing supports full low-frequency reproduction from all channels.

* With an Acoustimass 16 Series II system or upgraded Acoustimass 15 Series IlI system only.

Note: If your receiver provides it, the LFE or Subwoofer option setting should be ON and the crossover value at the lowest number possible, which is typically 80 Hz.
