Product Description

Bose's most affordable Lifestyle DVD home entertainment system contains all you need to enjoy exhilarating music and movie sound. It features several innovations found in more expensive Lifestyle products, including the ADAPTiQ audio calibration system, a system that customizes sound to the size and shape of your room. And 3-inch cube speakers deliver 5.1-channel surround sound suitable for smaller rooms.The trim and elegant media center enhances - instead of dominates - your decor. It contains much of the proprietary technology behind the performance of this revolutionary system, and also includes an integrated DVD/CD player and an AM/FM tuner with 50 presets. Inputs for up to three additional media players broaden its capabilities. It also contains Videostage 5 decoding circuitry that brings a 5.1-channel experience to practically everything you watch, even older VHS tapes and mono TV programs.These Virtually Invisible cube speakers rival the performance of many larger speakers. They partner with the Acoustimass module, which delivers low frequency effects. Because it produces low-frequency sound for all channels, the module can be hidden out of sight and all the sound appears to come from the cube speakers. Every home has unique features that affect sound performance. Only from Bose, the ADAPTiQ audio calibration system compensates for room dimensions and other variables that can impact your listening experience. Place the speakers wherever you like, then sit in your favorite listening spots. The system adjusts for variations in your room, so you enjoy Bose surround sound performance without having to adjust speaker placement.This system is also designed for expansion to another room. With the Lifestyle 18 system, you can watch a DVD in the main room, while the kids listen to their favorite music downstairs, or you can hear the same sounds in both rooms, all at the touch of a button.

Amazing amazing amazing sound .......2006-04-26

This system with the dvd player is incredible. I have plugged it into my mac and play all my i-tunes from it, and also have it connected to a projection screen tv. (Since I already have all my music digitized, I saw no reason to buy the upgraded model which would digitize all the songs directly onto the Bose receiver.)

The demonstration I heard in the local Bose store sold me on the system, and when I got home and pulled it out of the box, I had it up and running in about 20 minutes.

The system comes with Bose's own, "adaptiq" system which allows the system to calibrate the sound system to fit your room.

Basically they give you a headset that is outfitted with little microphones that allows the Bose receiver to listen to what the system sounds like in different parts of the room. It then optimizes the output of the five speakers to make sure the best sound reaches those areas evenly. You pick five places where you think you will watch movies or listen to music from, and you sit in each one for about a minute while the speakers emit weird sounds, and then presto, it is calibrated and you can have perfect sound throughout the room.

I was a little skeptical about it until I tried it out, and watched my first movie. It is better sound than any movie theater I have been to.

If you have the means to purchase this system and you are serious about sound, I recommend this product without reservation. I also suggest you get the whole Bose system over the speakers and a regular receiver because of the added Bose technology. The speakers by themselves are great but the Bose receiver makes them unbelievable.

My wife was a bit miffed at the price, but agrees that the sound is amazing. It has turned our weekly family movie night into a neighborhood event.

this is by far the best BOSE system ever built.No questions about it.The music is shrill and fantastic,and the acoustics are simply superb.have a good 34" TV and see the dvds rip the hell out of you ! try watching matrix reloaded or terminator 3.music of mp3 and cds are out of this world.it will suit a box type living room very well.the speakers belt out music, madonna would be proud off.this is the one.this is GOD itself.thanks amazon.thanks bose.this is what we human beings live for.as i said before,take a bow.move over sony,jbl,panasonic and the likes.the bose has arrived.
