This proprietary technology customizes sound to your room's
unique characteristics. |

Direct/Reflecting® cube speaker arrays blend beautifully
with your décor. |
The Lifestyle® 28 Series III DVD system adds thrilling sound
to your movies and music with the combination of performance,
elegance and simplicity you expect from Bose. It customizes
sound to your room with the innovative ADAPTiQ® audio calibration
system. Our stylish media center features a progressive scan
DVD/CD player and AM/FM tuner. Direct/Reflecting® cube speaker
arrays and a new horizontal center-channel speaker fill your
room with spacious surround sound. And all Lifestyle® DVD systems
feature Bose® link home networking technology to connect compatible
Bose products for a whole-home entertainment solution.
An intelligent approach to home theater
From premium performance to elegance, the Lifestyle® 28 III
DVD system is made for your room—with all its unique characteristics.
It includes the ADAPTiQ audio calibration system to deliver
a consistent surround sound presentation in any room, while
offering greater freedom of speaker placement. This proprietary
technology analyzes and adjusts your Lifestyle® system's sound
to your room's dimensions, speaker placement and preferred seating
locations. In a matter of minutes, you'll have Bose quality
sound the way you like it. Nice and easy.
Great sound never looked so good
The brushed silver media center features an integrated progressive
scan DVD/CD player and AM/FM tuner. This one unit elegantly
accomplishes everything that conventional home theater systems
use multiple components to achieve. But it's also the hub of
a whole-home entertainment system, made possible by Bose® link
home networking technology. This home networking technology
allows you to connect compatible Bose products to your Lifestyle®
28 III system for sound in as many as 14 additional rooms, even
outdoors. Because, like you, your sound shouldn't live in one
room. With Bose® link technology, you can have independent volume
control in each room, as well as access to two different audio
streams from the same Lifestyle® system.
Direct/Reflecting® cube speaker arrays, standing roughly 6"
high, blend nicely with your décor. They combine with a sleek,
horizontal center channel speaker to deliver a level of sound
you'd expect from much larger speakers. And the Acoustimass®
module —now 30% smaller than the previous model—reproduces deep,
resonant low notes while stationed inconspicuously almost anywhere
in your room. The result Riveting surround sound that seems
to come from smaller speakers, whether it's the hypnotic whisper
of rustling leaves or the pure power of a ferocious storm.
Simplicity for your video sources
Simplify the integration of a Lifestyle® system with your video
components—including those with HDMI—and get the best picture
possible. The new VS-2 video enhancer (sold separately) automatically
synchronizes the audio and video you want at the touch of a
button. You'll receive the highest video resolution your TV
can accept, all the way up to 1080p over HDMI. And you'll reduce
the wiring to the back of the television to just one connection.
No matter what you want to hear—or where you want to hear it—the
Lifestyle® 28 Series III DVD system makes it all possible with
performance, elegance and simplicity. |
