Enjoying your system in other rooms

Your media center connection panel provides two speaker output connectors identified by the label Speakers.

• Main sends audio to the Acoustimass® module and speakers in the main room.

• Bose® link is used to send audio to speakers in other rooms.

By using the Bose link option, you can add a variety of other Bose systems, speakers, and amplifiers (some designed specifically for this use) in up to 15

rooms total. However, much more than simply extending the reach of your system, it adds another level of choice. From this one system, you can play two different sources in different areas of your house at the same time, indoors and out.

For this purpose, Bose offers you the AL8 homewide wireless audio link or two types of cables that connect to the Bose link jack:

•Bose link A cable, which is designed for use with a LIFESTYLE® SA-2 or SA-3 amplifier for passive Bose speakers (and included in the carton with either amplifier).

•Bose link B cable, designed for adding other Bose link-compatible systems and to be purchased at the same time. Your choice of systems includes:

•Wave® music system

•3•2•1® Series II, 3•2•1 GS Series II, or 3•2•1 GSX systems

•LIFESTYLE® RoomMate® speakers

In addition to the above specialized cables, our Bose link-compatible product line includes:

•Remote controls for use outside the main room where your LIFESTYLE® system is installed

•Expansion/extension cables for long runs into other rooms or adding multiple other rooms

•Cable adapters that may be required by your particular product for this purpose

Adding other products

Besides having the Bose link-compatible product line to choose from, you may prefer to use a Bose product you already own with your LIFESTYLE® system. Products that pre-date Bose link product engineering are referred to as legacy products and require special consid- eration when added to the product mix.

To adapt a legacy product

The tips below apply to products that pre-date Bose link-compatible products:

•Powered Acoustimass® 5 or Acoustimass 20 speakers require a variable DIN adapter (Bose PN278894-103)

•Model SA-1 LIFESTYLE® stereo amplifier, for use with passive Bose speakers, restricts to one pair the number of speakers you can add

•Any Wave® radio or other legacy Bose system (a 3•2•1 Series I system, for example) requires use of a variable DIN adapter (Bose PN278894-103)

For a Bose remote control to work with the above products, you must set its

Room Code to O.

Note: For information on setting a Room Code for the RC18S remote control or the PERSONAL® music center II, refer to the owner’s guide for the accessory.
