Connections using the adapter cable

The Bose® link AL8 Homewide Wireless Audio Link also works with some products that are not Bose link-compatible.

You can use non-Bose products in the following ways:

•A tuner/receiver as a sound source connected to the transmitter or in an expansion room connected to the receiver

•Powered speakers connected to the receiver

You can use older Bose products as follows:

•Powered speakers, a radio, or system with its own volume and on/off controls and line- level female RCA input jacks connected to the receiver

Any of the above products require the use of an RCA to DIN adapter cable for connecting to the transmitter, the receiver, or both. An adapter kit, which contains two of these cables, is available from Bose.

Note: To order the adapter kit, contact Bose and request Part Number 285320-207. For Bose contact information, refer to the address sheet included in the carton.

2.Insert the adapter cable RCA connectors into the Audio Out jack on the connection panel of the audio source or the Audio In jack on the expansion room product. Match left to left and right to right.
