Using other components
Use your Wave
®
radio to improve the sound of a CD player, cassette deck, or TV. Or add
powered Bose
®
speakers. You can also use your Wave
®
radio as extension speakers for the Bose
Lifestyle
®
music system. Most audio cables are available at electronics stores. Or call Bose.
Most audio cables are color coded. Match the red plugs to the right (red) jack and the black or
white plugs to the left (white) jack.

Audio output jack
For portable CD
players: the head-
phone jack (set the
headphone volume
control to 7).
If there are two sets of
outputs, use the fixed
outputs.
Although you can record from
your Wave
®
radio to your tape
deck, Bose does not recommend
it because the variable output
volume may not match the input
level required by the tape deck.

Selecting the component

Use the audio-input
cables that came with
your speakers.
VARIABLE OUT jack
Speaker system as
described in the
speaker owner’s
manual.
Some audio-input cables have three
connectors at each end. Use only the
two connectors that look alike. DO
NOT INSERT THE THIRD CONNEC-
TOR into the speaker’s SYSTEM
CONTROL jack.
Connecting components or speakers
to the VARIABLE OUT jack will cut
out the radio's speakers.
Television
TVs with stereo output
jacks need a standard
RCA cord.
TVs with single (mono)
audio output jacks use
a standard Y adapter.
TVs with earplug outlets
may need a special
earplug adapter.
To make sure the sound seems to
come from the screen, place the
Wave
®
radio close to the TV. Do
not place it directly on top of the
TV (the magnets in the speakers
may interfere with the TV picture).
