OPTIONAL CONNECTIONS AND ADDITIONS
Higher-quality connections to consider
For on line assistance in making additional connections, or choosing the best choice means
to connect your specific TV, please visit our website: owners.bose.com.
There are other connection options besides analog audio and composite video connections
from the TV to the media center, shown earlier in this guide. However, your choices depend
on the type of TV you own and what other audio and video components you want in your
home theater system setup.
What cables you have on hand or may need to buy is another factor in adding any of the
following equipment:
PVR or DVR (a personal or digital video recorder) VCR (a video cassette recorder)
Cable or satellite box Game console
DVD changer Recording equipment
To determine how you will connect and use added components, consider the following.
Your choice of audio connections
Your LIFESTYLE
®
system media center provides Audio IN jacks for the TV and three other
components. So you can get Bose
®
quality audio performance added to your enjoyment of
multiple external sources.
There are two types of audio connections you can make for these components:
Analog connections, the most commonly used, require an analog cable (with L and R
connectors at each end). Two of these cables are provided with the system.
Digital connections, made using either a coaxial digital cable (with a single RCA connector
at each end), or an optical cable (with a special square connector at each end). These
cables may be supplied with your digital-ready components, or you may need to purchase
them separately.
For a visual guide on making digital connections, refer to “Other jacks on the media center
panel” on page 36.
Note:
When choosing to use a digital audio connection, we suggest that it be coupled with an
analog connection. This will better ensure continuous sound during an interruption to the digital
signal (which is slightly more sensitive to interference).
Your choice of video connections
Your LIFESTYLE
®
system media center provides one set of two Video Out jacks, one of them
used already to connect the TV to the media center. The video cable supplied with the system
affords this basic composite connection.
There is also one set of Video IN jacks for connecting one video component to the
LIFESTYLE
®
media center, which passes that video signal through to the TV.
You may want to review the choices below to determine what will work to provide you with
the highest-quality video that your components can support.
Beyond composite, consider S-video
An S-video input jack, provided on many TVs, delivers higher picture quality than composite
video output. To make this connection, use the S-video cable included with your system to
connect the S-Video OUT jack on the media center and to the S-video input on your TV.
If your TV provides an S-video input jack (Figure 23) for video input, you can make that
connection to the media center Video OUT for higher quality from DVDs. Refer to Figure 26
on page 30 for an example of this choice.
