The Bose® Lifestyle® V-class® home entertainment system delivers vivid surround sound that brings movies and music to life. And now, it's designed to let you enjoy the experience more easily than ever before. Engineered with exclusive Bose Unify™ technology, this system uses easy-to-follow onscreen messages to guide you through the setup process. It even verifies when you've made the correct connections. Enjoy up to 6 HD video and audio sources—such as your 3D Blu-ray Disc™ player, cable box and gaming system. The system also includes a built-in AM/FM tuner and dock for your iPod or iPhone.

Easy to set up. Easy to use.

The beauty of the Lifestyle® V-class® system resides in its breakthrough simplicity. The new Unify intelligent integration system walks you through system setup, step by step. As you're attaching components to the control console, the system recommends the best connectors via on-screen messages. It even confirms that the connection was made properly.

Each connected device is automatically added to the source menu accessed on your TV screen. No more toggling through video inputs to find the right source. If you add a Blu-ray player, it will be shown as a "Blu-ray player" in the on-screen menu. This makes it easy and intuitive for anyone to use the Unify system.

Unify technology also simplifies programming your Bose remote to control your Lifestyle® system and most anything attached to it. During setup, the Unify system references an internal database to identify each connected component, and automatically teaches the Bose remote to control it. Plus, you'll view system information, including iPod and FM/AM status, on the Bose remote's LCD screen.

And once you're set up ...

You'll experience uncompromising surround sound, a hallmark of Lifestyle® systems. The V-class system features compact cube speakers that blend elegantly into your room. They produce compelling sound you'd expect from speakers many times their size. That performance is complemented by an Acoustimass® module that can be placed in a corner or out of view. Exclusive technology in the module helps provide the emotional intensity you feel at the theater or in a concert hall. Even hidden out of sight, its impact can't be missed.

Sound designed for your room

Your room is unique, with size, shape, textures and other elements affecting the sound you hear. The ADAPTiQ® system was developed to analyze your room and then adjust the Lifestyle® surround sound system for a consistent, high-quality performance.

Built-in Bose® link technology can distribute the home theater system's audio to as many as 14 additional areas. Add compatible Bose products to enjoy music almost anywhere, even outdoors.
