As easy as 2-3-5

The Lifestyle® 235 system is easier to set up than conventional home theater systems. You can connect up to 6 HD and music sources—such as your Blu-ray Disc™ player, cable box and gaming system—plus your iPod or iPhone. It's engineered with exclusive Bose Unify™ technology, which guides you through the setup process and even verifies the connections you make. Bose Unify technology makes using and controlling your sources easier, too. Clear onscreen menus provide all the information you need for the sources you've connected.

How low can Bose® go?

Low-range frequencies are essential to a fully textured audio experience. But subwoofer-esque units cramp a setting as cozy and intimate as your living room. Meet the Lifestyle® 235's Acoustimass® module. This Bose® breakthrough delivers a breadth of low-range frequencies without crowding your footrest. Place the module behind a curtain or chair, and like magic, all of the sound seems to come directly from the small cube speakers. Save space without losing those rich, resonating tones.

Everything but the proverbial kitchen sink

Go figure, Bose® is so concerned that you have an easy time of installing and enjoying your system, they've included an abundance of features you'll really fall for (outside of the already outstanding Unify™ technology). On the inside, the 235 comes with automatic video upscaling that delivers the highest resolution your TV can accept, plus it enhances non HD content to look as good as possible too. You'll also enjoy the built-in FM/AM radio tuner. On the outside, Bose® has included a Bose® universal remote that works intuitively with the on-screen navigation menus. And, they've even thrown in an iPod/iPhone compatible dock, so you can land your mothership of music on planet Bose®.

Get amazing sound effortlessly

If the thought of "calibrating" anything leaves you in a cold sweat, fear not. You're not buying a home theater system in order to prove you're capable of conquering the greatest engineering feats. You really just want to add better sound to your home theater setup. Bose® makes it all possible with their easy-to-use technology. The Lifestyle® 235 system uses the ADAPTiQ® audio calibration system to customize the sound to fit the unique acoustics of your room. The proprietary technologies in the Lifestyle® 235 system deliver an experience with greater simplicity and versatility than ever before—so you spend less time trying to figure it all out and more time enjoying it.
