What should a high-performance home theater system deliver? The Lifestyle® 18 DVD home entertainment system lets you hear the thunder of buffalo hooves or the delicate thrum of hummingbird's wings. It incorporates innovative Bose® technologies with elegant and intuitive design, and represents outstanding value in a home theater system.

Start with the Virtually Invisible® cube speakers. Just 3 inches high, they rival the performance of much larger conventional speakers. The Acoustimass® module can be concealed behind a curtain or a couch, delivering the low frequency effects that make home theater so entertaining. You enjoy lifelike sound that covers the whole listening spectrum—and it all appears to come from the five cube speakers.

Simplicity and style.

Simplicity can also be seen in the versatile and stylish media center at the heart of this system. It's smaller than most laptop computers, yet houses an integrated DVD/CD player, AM/FM tuner with 50 presets, and connections for your auxiliary media players in one handsome unit. And the radio frequency remote lets you control your system even from another room.

Naturally, the Lifestyle® 18 system's digital 5.1 decoding delivers the exciting surround sound effects encoded on your new DVDs, but what about classic films? Proprietary Videostage® 5 decoding circuitry gives you a five-channel surround sound experience from everything you listen to—VHS tapes, stereo CDs, even older mono TV programs.

Performance you can count on. Every time. Every home has unique features that affect sound performance. The proprietary ADAPTiQ™ audio calibration system compensates for individual room dimensions and furniture placement. These variables can adversely impact the surround sound experience. Place the speakers wherever you like, then sit in your favorite listening spots. The system automatically adjusts for acoustic variations in your room, so you enjoy optimum sound performance throughout the listening area.

This proprietary technology customizes sound to your room’s unique characteristics. More >> A home networking technology enabled by your Lifestyle® DVD system. More >>

With the Lifestyle® 18 system, you aren't limited to sound in just one room. By adding on to your system, you can bring Bose sound to other areas of your home. Enjoy live radio on the deck with Bose environmental speakers while your kids watch a DVD in the family room. Or with one touch, you can play the same music in both areas.
