Component video connections as another option

The highest video quality for DVD and cable or satellite viewing requires a component
connection.
For that purpose there are two supplied component video adapters. Use one to connect
the media center to the TV and the second to connect an audio/video device (cable or
satellite) to the media center. To add your VCR using a composite connection, follow the
connection scenario below (Figure 29).
• Notice that this arrangement requires additional component three-connector cables, not
provided with the system.
• It also requires that you activate the component video feature of your system after you
make these connections and before you play a DVD.
Note: To activate your component video connections, follow the instructions on page 34.
Refer to "Use a component connection for the highest resolution" on page 28, as needed.

If you want to add a VCR to the above setup, we recommend using an optional
VS-1 video expander. That will enable you to establish a component connection (if your
TV supports it) to enjoy the highest quality video reproduction with DVDs. You can then make
an S-video connection for your cable and a composite connection for your VCR using the
VS-1 video expander.
Note: For information about the optional Bose
connection decisions, refer to "Accessories" on page 39.
