By Nathan S. Wood on May 28, 2007

This amplifier works fine and does exactly what it says it will do. THe one problem is that the description doesn't tell you that you HAVE TO have a remote control (Purchased Seperately) to make this unit work. This may depend on which system you have, my parents have older one. So you may have to tack on another $80 or so to the price if you want the unit to function.

Expand You System

By Troy Blake on November 27, 2011

Verified Purchase

This stereo amplifier works with Bose Lifestyle systems and either standard external speakers or Bose speakers to expand your system into an additional room in your home. The way it worked for me is I was able to connect an existing whole-house speaker system into the Bose Lifestyle system so that I could enjoy TV using either the speakers that came with the Bose system, and/or I could switch the sound to my external speakers and listen to TV, DVD, or my docked iPod through the entire house. Just remember you MUST use a dedicated Lifestyle expansion remote control (sold separately). This amplifier is fairly small, but due to the internal electrical components, it does have some weight. The 8 pound unit can just sit on the floor or a shelf. The important point is you can hook ANY normal speakers to a set of speaker jacks on the back of the unit.

Simple setup with great sound output

By John Valente on December 31, 2012

Verified Purchase

I've been using this amp for the last week and love it. I bought this amp to expand my existing Bose Lifestyle (i.e. receiver) system to power a second zone. I have an older Lifestyle system with support for two zones. The output for the first zone runs to a powered sub-woofer which in turn runs to the 5 surround sound speakers. I now have the second zone run to this amplifier which outputs to Bose speakers in another room (on another floor of the house in fact). This gives me the ability to control the music to each room independently and each room can use the same or different sources, meaning I could listen to iTunes from one room and the cd player from the other since both run into the receiver. Combine that with the great RF remotes that work through walls and I now have music on a different floor of my house from where the receiver and amp are... just by pushing a button on the remote.

The setup was a piece of cake. The amp comes with the proprietary Bose cables to run from the receiver. After plugging in the cable from the receiver, hooking up the speaker wires, and setting the dip switches to pair the remote, I was ready to go in about 15 minutes from opening the box.

The sound output is great. As my 2 year old son said "too loud, dad!!!", which told me I was getting the desired volume. Even when cranking it, the quality doesn't degrade whether listening to horns, strings, or vocals. Of course having good speakers with it is key, but the amp has shown itself to be a strong link in the chain.

Two important notes from my experience:
* From reading the reviews, I was confused as to whether I would need a new remote. I already had the original remote from my Lifestyle to control a second zone, and this worked fine.Read more ›
