How does the ADAPTiQ® audio calibration system work?

Will the ADAPTiQ audio calibration system work on any system?

If I change speaker loca- tions or move the system to another room, can the ADAPTiQ system

be recalibrated?

When going through the ADAPTiQ system process, I'm instructed to sit in five listening locations.

If I choose not to use the ADAPTiQ system, can I turn it off?

After setting up the ADAPTiQ system can I still modify the performance of my system?

The ADAPTiQ audio calibration system is activated while setting up the Lifestyle® system during a simple process that takes from ten to fifteen minutes. Microphones on a special headset worn by the user sample the sound from the system at five different locations throughout the room, analyzing the response from the speakers at each location.The ADAPTiQ system then makes the necessary adjustments to the Lifestyle® system so it will automatically deliver a quality Bose performance, customized for that particular room and its listeners, time after time.

No. The ADAPTiQ audio calibration system is available only with the Bose® Lifestyle® 48, 38, 28, and 18 systems.The technology is integrated only with DVD-based Lifestyle® systems.

Yes. Simply run the ADAPTiQ system setup procedure again when you rearrange your furniture, change your speaker placement or move the Lifestyle® system to a different room. There are no limits on how many times the ADAPTiQ audio calibration system can be reset.

It is important to get a variety of measurements so the system can evaluate your room. We recognize that there may be fewer than five listening locations in some rooms, which is why it is suggested that customers stand (or sit on the floor) to create the five different locations in those situations.

Yes, you can turn off the ADAPTiQ audio calibration system. Using the remote, go to the on- screen display (OSD) and choose AUDIO SETUP. Within the menu, highlight ADAPTiQ and toggle to OFF.

Yes. With the ADAPTiQ system, you still have treble, bass and surround volume control. You will still be able to adjust the sound to your liking.

ADVANCED TECHNOLOGIES

Why did Bose pursue the development of Videostage® 5 decoding circuitry and what are its customer benefits?

After customers experience 5.1-encoded media played back through a digital home theater system, they can appreciate the added realism provided by discrete stereo sound in the surround channels. However, most conventional systems can deliver discrete five-speaker surround only from specially encoded software – 5.1 DVDs, for example. Proprietary Videostage 5 circuitry allows customers to get a five-speaker surround experience from almost any source – including surround-encoded VHS tapes, stereo CDs, even monaural TV programs.Videostage 5 decoding circuitry provides the listener with the following benefits:

•A five-speaker surround sound experience from surround-encoded VHS tapes and stereo TV programs – Videostage 5 decoding and post-processing circuitry delivers a five-speaker experience from a surround-encoded program by decoding the signal into front left, front center, front right and two independent channels of surround (both left and right).This performance is similar to that of a 5.1-encoded DVD disc, and is automatically engaged.
