Setting Up  
Before you begin  
Thank you for purchasing the Bose® Lifestyle® 30 system. This remarkably compact system  
is a result of advanced technology developed by years of research. Technological innova-  
tions that make the Lifestyle® 30 system possible include the smallest CD changer now  
available for home use and Jewel Cube® speakers, one-half the size of the previous Acousti-  
mass® cube speakers.  
To create speakers this small, the magnet inside is formed using the rare earth element  
neodymium and has ten times more energy (per unit volume) than conventional magnets.  
For high performance from such a small package, a port 3.8 inches (9.7 cm) long was  
designed in the shape of a nautilus shell and enclosed inside the tiny cube.  
These, and numerous other innovations, bring you the Lifestyle® 30 system, offering superb  
sound, elegance, technology, and simplicity for music and home theater.  
Your system includes:  
• A Lifestyle® music center with built-in AM/FM radio and six-disc CD changer  
• Powered Acoustimass speakers consisting of five Jewel Cube speakers  
and a hide-away Acoustimass module  
• An easy-to-use remote control  
• Inputs for two video sound sources, an auxiliary source, and a tape deck  
• Capability for operating two listening zones  
Bose Videostage® decoder technology enables the Lifestyle® 30 system to reproduce the  
realism of movie sound especially for a home environment. When a movie soundtrack or CD  
is produced in a surround sound format, specially encoded sound is sent to any or all of the  
available speakers. Dialogue is usually sent to the front speakers. Sounds from the left or  
right side of the picture are sent to the left or right front speakers. Ambient sounds or  
special effects may be sent to the surround (rear) speakers. Bose Videostage circuitry  
automatically directs the sound to the correct speakers.  
To select surround-encoded material, look for any of the terms Surround, Dolby Surround,  
and the double-D symbol  
preceding a TV broadcast.  
* on tapes and discs, or the word “surround”  
When sound is recorded in stereo, but not surround-encoded, Videostage decoder technol-  
ogy directs it to the most appropriate speakers based on the signals received. When  
viewing older movies or listening to other monaural programs on your Lifestyle® 30 system,  
Videostage directs sound so it appears to come from the center of the TV screen.  
You can listen to any program material in SURROUND (5-speaker) mode, although you will  
not hear sound from all five speakers all of the time. All monaural and most stereo materials  
are not directed to the surround speakers. Even with surround-encoded material there are  
times when no sounds are directed to the surround speakers. You can select the speaker  
mode that sounds best to you for each particular program.  
Please take the time to follow this owner’s guide carefully. It will help you set up and operate  
your Lifestyle® system, and enjoy all of its advanced features. Save your owner’s guide for  
future reference.

Setting Up  
®
Select the locations for your Lifestyle 30 system  
When you place your speakers according to the guidelines below, a combination of  
reflected and direct sound provides the audio atmosphere of a home theater. You may  
experiment with the placement and orientation of the Jewel Cube® speakers and  
Acoustimass® module to produce sound most pleasing to you. For the best surround effect,  
adjust the speakers so you cannot identify the exact sound source. It is preferable not to  
aim the cubes directly at the listener. For more discussion of speaker placement and room  
acoustics, see “Fine-tuning your system” on page 22.  
Jewel Cube speaker locations  
Follow these guidelines to select locations that provide the maximum home theater effect  
from your Lifestyle® 30 system (Figures 2 and 3). Place each of the Jewel Cube speakers  
6-12 inches (15-30 cm) from the surface behind them.  
CAUTION:  
Choose a stable and level  
surface for your Jewel Cube  
speakers. Vibration can cause  
the speakers to move, particu-  
larly on very smooth surfaces.  
For stability, peel off the  
backing from the rubber feet  
and center them in the  
Left and right front speakers  
The sound from the left and right front speakers should seem to appear at the edge of the  
picture, so that the acoustic image is close to the size of the visual image (Figure 2).  
1. Place them on line with the horizontal center of the TV screen.  
2. Place each speaker up to 3 feet (1 m) from the edge of the TV screen.  
matching shapes on the  
bottom of each speaker.  
We recommend a maximum distance of 3 feet (1 m) so that the sound does not become  
too separated from the picture. You may wish to vary this distance based on room  
conditions and personal preference. The front cables allow the cube speakers to be  
placed up to 20 feet (6.1 m) from the Acoustimass module.  
3. Direct one cube of each speaker toward the center of the room (Figure 2). Direct the  
other cube toward a side wall to create reflected sound. (See the illustration of sug-  
gested reflected sound patterns in Figure 3.)  
Note: The Jewel Cube speakers are magnetically shielded so you can place them close to  
the TV without affecting picture quality.  
Center speaker  
The sound from the center speaker should appear to come directly from the center of the  
picture (Figure 2). The center cable allows the center speaker to be placed up to 20 feet  
(6.1 m) from the Acoustimass module.  
Note: Do not place the speaker on its side, as this diminishes performance by blocking the  
Jewel Cube ports.  
1. Place the speaker on line with the vertical center of the screen, above or below (which-  
ever is closer to the screen), or the closest convenient location.  
2. Place the speaker in line with the front of the screen (not pushed to the back of the TV).  
3. Direct each of the cubes slightly away from center, to create a wider area of direct sound  
(Figure 3).  
Note: If you put the speakers in a bookcase unit, be sure to place each one at the front  
edge of the shelf. Placing speakers in an enclosed space can change the tonal quality of  
the sound. This effect is minimized if the shelves are filled with books.

Surround speakers  
The surround (rear) speakers create an area of sound around the listener. Place them in the  
back half of your room. Direct the cubes so that you do not pinpoint the exact location of  
the sound source (Figure 3). The surround cables allow the speakers to be placed up to 50  
feet (15.2 m) from the Acoustimass® module.

Music center  
Select a location for the music center.  
CAUTION: Be sure the three shipping screws on the bottom of the music center have  
been removed before proceeding.  
1. Place the music center on a level surface. Allow enough room to lift the door and to  
access the headphone jack on the right side panel.  
CAUTION:  
Do not cover the ventilation  
openings of the Acoustimass  
module. The slots on the end  
provide ventilation for the  
built-in electronic circuitry.  
2. Place the music center close enough to the sound sources (TV, VCR, etc.) to allow for  
cable length. If you need additional audio and/or video cables to connect all of your  
components, see your dealer or call Bose® customer service.  
3. Place the music center within 30 feet (9.1 m) of the Acoustimass module (the length of  
the audio input cable).

Connecting your home theater components to the  
®
Lifestyle system  
There are many variations of equipment in a home theater. A basic home theater system  
might include a stereo or mono TV and stereo VCR with the Lifestyle® 30 system. Your home  
theater can include many other combinations of equipment, including cable TV box, laser-  
disc players, DVD players, CDI players, additional VCRs, and satellite decoders.  
Note: A mono TV only serves as a display for the video, not as a source for the audio.  
In order for the Lifestyle® system to provide home theater effects, the program material must  
be recorded in stereo or surround-encoded, and the device playing the material must be  
stereo. Look for the word “surround” on the tape, CD, or preceding the TV broadcast. To  
hear stereo or surround sound from encoded video tapes, you must have a stereo (HiFi)  
VCR. While not all VCRs are stereo devices, all CD, DVD, and CDI players and nearly all  
laserdisc players play in stereo format.  
Note: Line level outputs from most VCRs or laserdisc players are fixed. If your VCR,  
laserdisc player, or other video sound source has fixed and variable outputs, use the fixed  
outputs.  
Setting up the primary video sound source  
The Lifestyle® music center has two sets of video sound inputs for the primary sources  
(Figure 10). If you set up your music center a distance from your TV, you may need extra  
long audio cables or extensions.  
Note: Your Lifestyle® 30 system includes one 6-foot (1.8 m) stereo cable to connect the  
right (R) and left (L) audio outputs from a component to the music center inputs. Cables  
may also be supplied with your components. If needed, cables are available at many  
electronics stores, or call Bose®customer service. Most audio cables are color coded.  
Match red connectors to right (R) jacks and black or white connectors to left (L) jacks.

Connecting components through  
your TV  
Cable TV  
There are three basic methods for setting up your home theater. It is easiest to use a stereo  
TV as the switching center to select the sound source. The next easiest option is to use a  
stereo VCR as the switching center. The third option is to connect components directly to  
the Lifestyle® music center, and select the source from the Lifestyle® remote or control panel.  
Laserdisc  
VCR  
(1) To direct your video sound sources through your TV  
If your stereo TV has fixed audio outputs (the audio signal level does not change), and it  
allows you to select the source of the signal (VCR, laserdisc, cable, etc.):  
• Connect your home theater components (VCR, cable box, laserdisc player, etc.) to  
the appropriate TV inputs. See Figure 9.  
• Connect the TV fixed audio outputs to the VIDEO 1 or 2 inputs of the music center.  
• Turn the TV speakers off or the volume all the way down.  
TV  
(If there is an internal/external speakers switch, select external speakers. Do not  
connect any speakers to the TV.)  
• Turn off any special TV settings such as expanded stereo, mega-bass, phantom, SAP.  
These settings prevent the proper processing of the surround sound through your  
Lifestyle® system.  
• Set the TV balance control to the center of the dial or range.  
• Set tone controls to flat or the middle position (neutral).  
• Set the TV to the stereo position.  
Note: If you connect the audio outputs from your TV to the music center, be sure to use the  
audio (L and R) and video outputs from the VCR to the TV. If the audio signal passes  
through two coaxial cable connections (like the connection from a cable TV box), in some  
cases the stereo or surround encoding may be lost.  
Note: If necessary, as a second choice, you can use variable audio outputs from your  
stereo TV. Turn off or disconnect the TV’s speakers and leave the volume control up – close  
to the maximum setting.

If your TV is not a stereo model, or does not have the appropriate outputs, connect your  
stereo VCR to the music center. Use the VCR as a tuner to select other connected sound  
sources. See Figure 11.  
Connecting components through  
your VCR  
Cable TV  
Laserdisc  
• Connect your home theater components to the appropriate VCR inputs.  
• Connect the VCR video out signal to the TV through VIDEO IN or composite video  
input. You can also use the RF (coaxial or 75Ω) or antenna input.  
VCR  
• Turn the TV speakers off or the volume all the way down.  
(If there is an internal/external speakers switch, select external speakers. Do not  
connect any speakers to the TV.)  
Video out to TV  
Audio out  
• Connect the VCR fixed audio outputs to the VIDEO 1 or 2 inputs of the music center.  
Note: To ensure proper stereo or surround sound, connect the L and R audio outputs from  
your stereo VCR directly to your music center L and R VIDEO 1 or 2 inputs, as shown in  
Figure 11. If you prefer to connect the audio outputs from your TV to the music center, be  
sure to use the audio (L and R) and video outputs from the VCR to the TV. If the audio signal  
passes through two coaxial cable connections (like the connection from a cable TV box), in  
some cases the stereo or surround encoding may be lost.

®
(3) To connect components directly to the Lifestyle music center  
If you cannot (or do not choose to) use your TV or VCR to select the sound sources, con-  
nect up to three sound sources directly to the Lifestyle® music center. For example, connect  
a VCR into VIDEO 1, a laserdisc to VIDEO 2, and a TV’s fixed audio outputs to AUX on the  
music center. See Figure 12. By pressing VIDEO 1, VIDEO 2, or AUX on the remote control  
or SOURCE SELECT on the music center control panel, you choose which sound source to  
hear.  
Note: Selecting VIDEO 1 or 2 on your Lifestyle® system automatically selects SURROUND  
(5-speaker) mode, and selecting AUX or TAPE automatically selects STEREO (2-speaker)  
mode. If you wish, you can change the speaker mode after you select the source.

Other connections  
Use standard RCA audio cables to connect other components to your Lifestyle® system,  
matching the red connector to R (right), white (or black) connector to L (left).  
You can use a Y-adapter (available at electronics stores) to connect a mono source. How-  
ever, the left and right speakers then play the same monaural sound.  
Tape deck  
To use an external tape recorder (analog audio cassette, analog open reel, digital audio  
tape, or Digital Compact Cassette), connect the inputs (REC) of the tape deck to the music  
center TAPE OUT jacks. Connect the outputs (PLAY) from the tape deck to the music center  
TAPE IN jacks. See Figure 13.  
CD changer, DVD player, or laserdisc player  
To use one of these components, connect its audio outputs to the music center AUX INPUT  
jacks, matching the red plug to R (right) and black or white plug to L (left). See Figure 13.  
Turntable  
To connect a turntable, you need a phono preamplifier (with RIAA equalization). Consult your  
dealer for the appropriate model. Connect the audio outputs of the phono preamplifier to  
the music center AUX INPUT jacks, matching the red plug to R (right) and black or white  
plug to L (left).

center.  
2. Move the antenna as far as possible from the music center and other components, and  
at least four feet (1.2 m) from the Acoustimass® module. This prevents interference with  
AM reception.  
3. To stand the antenna up on a flat surface, extend the wire feet outward. Or, use the  
notch on the back of the antenna to hang it on a wall. For proper AM signal reception,  
be sure the antenna is in an upright position.  
4. You may want to adjust the antenna location or orientation as needed to receive distant  
stations.  
Connecting to a cable radio signal  
To connect your system to the FM signal available from some cable TV companies, contact  
your cable provider for assistance. The connection is made to the FM 75Ω EXTERNAL  
antenna connector on the back of the system.  
CAUTION: Be certain that the installation includes a signal splitter so that only the FM  
band, not the cable TV band, is transmitted to the system. It is necessary to use a splitter  
that filters the signal to prevent any re-emissions of the TV spectrum through the system.

Operating Your Lifestyle 30 System  
Fine-tuning your system  
In most situations, following the speaker placement guidelines (see pages 6-7) provides  
excellent sound quality.  
You do not need to adjust tone settings for changes in volume, since Bose® patented signal  
processing technology provides a natural tonal balance over the full range of volume  
settings.  
Figure 29  
Bass and treble controls  
If desired, you can further fine-tune your system as described below.  
Adjusting speaker controls  
The Lifestyle® 30 system TREBLE and BASS controls are located on the Acoustimass®  
module (Figure 29). They allow you to adjust the treble (high frequencies) and bass (low  
frequencies). In the normal setting, the dots on each control are in the 12 o’clock position.  
You can also locate the normal setting by feeling when the control settles into the notch at  
this position. Turn the controls clockwise to increase, and counterclockwise to decrease,  
the amount of treble or bass.

Compensating for room acoustics  
B
a
s
s
The acoustics (sound qualities) of your room can affect the overall sound quality of any  
speaker system. In general, you can reduce many problems with acoustics by the cautious  
use of the TREBLE and BASS controls.  
Too much or too little treble  
Rooms with too few sound-absorbing furnishings, especially those with bare floors and  
walls, may sound overly shrill or “bright.” Turning down the treble control (toward –)  
decreases treble sound.  
Rooms with a lot of sound-absorbing furnishings, such as upholstered furniture, wall-to-wall  
carpet, or heavy drapes, may reduce the treble sound of your system. Moving speakers  
farther away from soft furnishings increases treble. You can increase treble sound by slightly  
turning up the treble control (toward +).  
Too much or too little bass  
You can decrease bass sound by turning down the bass control (toward –). To increase  
bass, turn up the bass control (toward +).  
Acoustimass module placement affects the amount of bass you hear. Placing the module  
closer to the corner of the room will increase bass. Moving the module away from the  
corner will decrease bass.  
Compensating for movie soundtracks  
When a movie soundtrack is played in a motion picture theater, its bass is restored to the  
full level intended by the movie’s sound designer. To perform the same way in your home,  
your Lifestyle® 30 system restores the bass to this level when you select VIDEO 1 or 2. In  
VIDEO, AUX, or TAPE mode, you can choose between standard and enhanced bass.  
In VIDEO mode, the system turns on enhanced bass for movies. Press VIDEO 1 or 2 again  
to change to standard bass.  
In AUX or TAPE mode, the system turns on in standard bass. Press AUX or TAPE again to  
change to enhanced bass for movies.

Operating Your Lifestyle 30 System  
Using two listening zones  
The Lifestyle® 30 system can direct sound from one or two sound sources to two different  
listening areas at the same time. Each listening area, whether a room or a group of rooms,  
is referred to as a zone. By adding powered speakers and a second remote, you can  
establish two listening zones.  
Figure 30  
Example of two listening zones:  
the Lifestyle® 30 speakers in zone  
1 and Acoustimass® powered  
speaker system in zone 2  
How zones work  
•
Zones 1 and 2 can play different sound sources at the same time – CD, AM/FM tuner,  
TAPE, VIDEO sound, or AUX.  
•
•
Both zones can listen to the same sound source at the same time.  
Only one radio station can be played at a time.

Zone 2  
Any combination of rooms and floors in your home can be set up as zones.  
Use an appropriate Lifestyle® system cable to connect a second Bose® powered  
speaker system to the SPEAKER ZONE 2 jack on the back of the music center.  
You can also use special adapters to connect an existing stereo system.  
Use a second Lifestyle® system remote control to operate zone 2.  
•
•
See your dealer or contact Bose for information on obtaining additional powered speakers,  
remote controls, cables, and adapters for connecting additional equipment.  
Setting a second remote for zone 2  
You need a second remote control, set to ZONE 2, to operate speakers connected to the  
ZONE 2 output.  
To set your second remote to control speakers in the second zone, follow these steps:  
1. Open the remote control battery cover.  
2. Locate miniature switch 8 (Figure 31). If it is set down for ZONE 1, slide it up for ZONE  
2, using a paper clip, ballpoint pen, or similar object.  
3. Make sure the house code switches (1, 2, 3, and 4) match those on your first remote.  
(See page 25 for more information on house codes.)  
4. Replace the battery cover.

Maintaining Your Lifestyle 30 System  
Changing the house code settings  
Each Lifestyle® remote control uses a system of matching house codes to communicate  
with its corresponding music center. If your remote’s commands ever conflict with those of  
another nearby Lifestyle® system, you can easily set a new house code for your system and  
its remote control(s) by following the procedures below.  
1. Open the remote control battery cover and locate the miniature switches (Figure 32).  
2. To create a new code, change the position of any of switches 1, 2, 3, or 4 by moving  
them in the opposite direction from their current settings. Use a paper clip, ball point  
pen, or similar object.  
Note: Do not change switches 5, 6, or 7 at this time. The manufacturer’s standard setting is  
switch 5 up and switches 6 and 7 down.  
3. Replace the battery cover.
