Posted on Tuesday, October 07, 2008 - 19:39 GMT I have all of a Bose Lifestyle 25 Series II system except the Music Center and the CD cartridge. Is there a way that I can use the Accountimass Module and the cube speakers with a Harmon Kardon 5.1 receiver (sorry, I don't have the model number with me at this time)? The cube speakers are already mounted in a house and if they will perform without the Music Center unit, I have a CD changer and DVD player which functions fine with the Harmon Kardon.
TIA |

You can use the speakers, but that "Module" will not work with a regular receiver like the HK. This is because the Bose module needs to be hooked up to the "Music Center" via a special hookup wire proprietary only to Bose. You can solve the problem be buying a regular powered subwoofer which will be compatible with the HK. You can then ditch the module because it is worthless without the Bose music center.

Posted on Wednesday, October 08, 2008 - 15:36 GMT I appreciate the information. I connected the speakers to the HK last night and the speakers sounded OK, but not great. These were not the best connections, as I had to rig some RCA plugs from Wal-Mart so as not to cut the RCA plugs off of the Bose speaker cables for testing. But at least I know that I can ditch the module without fear of throwing away something that a minor wiring change could have made it servicable to me.
Thank you. |

Posted on Tuesday, October 14, 2008 - 20:34 GMT I recently purchased the Bose Lifestyle V20 in America and brought it back to my home in Thailand. The salesman told me that I should have no problems in utilizing it with the different voltage since it came with a built in dual voltage regulator. Apparently not because upon plugging it in, nothing happened and I have to assume that I burnt out the power supply. Is there a way that I could fix this and does anybody believe that I could have caused more harm to the system? I really would appreciate an immediate response. I am dying to listen to it and haven't once since I've purchased it. Thank you in advance! |
