Easy to Set Up. Easy to Use
The Lifestyle V25 system features the new Unify Intelligent Integration System to walk you through system setup, step by step. As you're attaching components to the control console, the system recommends the best connectors via onscreen 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 onscreen 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 LED screen.

And Once You're Set Up…
You'll experience uncompromising surround sound, a hallmark of Lifestyle systems. The V25 system's surround sound performance is provided by four Direct/Reflecting speakers and a horizontal center channel speaker. They produce a level of sound that adds impact and realism to your entertainment. That sound is aided 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. In addition, built-in Bose link technology can distribute the home theater system's audio to as many as four additional areas. Add compatible Bose products to enjoy music almost anywhere, even outdoors.

About Bose
Dedication to research and excellence has been the Bose approach to better sound since Dr. Amar G. Bose founded the company in 1964, but the commitment actually began years earlier. In the late 1950s, Dr. Bose, then a graduate student, purchased a stereo system based on its impressive technical specifications. The avid music enthusiast was disappointed to discover the speakers didn't reproduce the sound of a live performance-and he became determined to recreate that lifelike audio experience for listeners. After extensive research, Dr. Bose and colleagues introduced the groundbreaking 901® Direct/Reflecting® speakers in 1968. Their lifelike sound won immediate and widespread acclaim. Since those early days of 901 speakers, Bose engineers have kept their focus on creating better technology. You'll find that focus exemplified in the product featured here, with advances that ensure premium performance and convenience.
