Making Sure The Sound Is As Good As It Gets; Using System Setup Disc 1; Using Disc 2 For Adaptiq® Audio Calibration - Bose LIFESTYLE DVD Operating Manual

BASIC SYSTEM CONNECTIONS
Making sure the sound is as good as it gets
Your system comes with two compact discs (Figure 20). Using them is the final step to
basic installation of your new LIFESTYLE® DVD home entertainment system.
• Use Setup Disc 1 to verify that your speakers are connected correctly and for other tips you
may find useful.
• Use Setup Disc 2 to follow the ADAPTiQ® audio calibration process, which tailors the sound
of your LIFESTYLE® system very specifically to the acoustics in your room.
The special headset, designed to be worn above your ears, takes acoustic measurements
for you during the process. Put on the headset only when prompted by Disc 2.

• Play both discs when all of the speakers are where you want them, your furnishings are
arranged as intended, and all of the system connections are completed.
• Allow approximately 30 minutes to complete the process.
• Begin the process when you are unlikely to be disturbed and when the acoustic measure-
ment tones (not loud, just weird) are unlikely to disturb anyone else.
