NEVER BEEN USED ...WAS IN STORAGE
Just hook up your TV to the Bose Lifestyle® 18 system and get ready for incredible home theater peformance. It's hard to believe that five ultra-compact satellite speakers and a hideaway Acoustimass® bass module could produce such rich, deep, room-filling sound. The satellites literally fit in the palm of your hand! But hearing is believing — movie soundtracks and music will come to life in your home like never before!
You can perfectly tailor the sound to your room and furnishings, thanks to the included ADAPTiQ™ audio calibration system. It's a one-time setup process that's incredibly easy: Just put on the supplied headset equipped with built-in microphones, sit in 5 of your favorite spots to enjoy music and home theater, and the ADAPTiQ™ system does the rest! The included Bose proprietary software analyzes a series of test tones, allowing your Lifestyle® system to adjust itself for optimum performance in your room.
The Lifestyle® 18's media center houses a DVD/CD player that also plays audio CD-Rs and CD-RWs, and even MP3 CDs! It also contains an AM/FM tuner with 50 presets for your favorite stations. Built-in decoding for Dolby® Digital and DTS® provides you with incredible DVD home theater thrills, while Bose's proprietary Videostage® 5 steering circuitry creates exciting 5.1-channel sound from sources like CDs, VHS tapes, and even mono TV broadcasts. And you can control the system — plus your TV, VCR, and cable box or satellite receiver — from anywhere in your home using the multibrand RF remote.
The media center includes enough digital and analog inputs to allow connection of up to four external devices (such as a VCR, your TV's sound, a tape deck, and a CD mega changer), plus optical and coaxial digital outputs that allow you to send direct digital signals to a CD-R or MD deck. You also get one video pass-through for composite and S-video, a very handy feature if your TV only has one set of inputs. And you can output a component video signal using the included adapter.
To maximize your entertainment options, the Lifestyle® 18 system also offers dual-zone capability. Dual-zone use requires a Zone 2 Stereo Adapter Kit; an additional set of Bose powered speakers or a Bose Wave® radio; and an extension cable available directly from Bose. Extension cable is already included with optional Lifestyle® powered speakers.
