Lifestyle® DVD Home Entertainment Systems

Lifestyle® DVD systems add thrilling sound to your movies and music with the combination of performance, elegance and simplicity you expect from Bose. They customize sound to your room’s unique acoustic characteristics with the innovative ADAPTiQ® audio calibration system. This easy-to-use technology analyzes the way your room’s dimensions and other variables affect sound, then automatically adjusts the sound of your Lifestyle® DVD system to the acoustics of your room. You then have greater freedom of speaker placement—without the need for tonal adjustments.

Our most advanced Lifestyle® DVD systems feature the uMusic™ intelligent playback system, which digitally stores thousands of songs in the media center. This relieves you from managing a cumbersome CD collection. The uMusic system actually listens to your music and learns your preferences to select tracks based on what you like. No menus, no playlists, no computer.

All Lifestyle® systems have Bose® link technology to connect compatible Bose products for a whole-home entertainment solution. Bring the benefits of this advanced system to as many as 14 additional rooms throughout your home, or even outside.

Our stylish media center features a progressive scan DVD/CD player and AM/FM tuner, and plays all the latest media formats. Direct/Reflecting® speaker technology helps fill your room with spacious surround sound. And our Acoustimass® module delivers the clarity of pure low-frequency reproduction down to the lowest frequencies, even at the loudest levels. When the module is placed behind a curtain or chair, all of the sound seems to come directly from the system’s small cube speakers.

A suite of proprietary Bose technologies offers improved realism from 5.1-encoded DVDs, DBS or HDTV. And Videostage® 5 decoding circuitry delivers home theater sound from practically everything you play, even older TV programs and videotapes that weren’t recorded in surround sound. A radio frequency remote operates your Lifestyle® system, as well as most popular functions on other infrared-receiving equipment in your home entertainment system: TV, VCR, PVR, cable box or satellite receiver. The remote works through most walls and floors, no pointing or aiming required.
