    The LIFESTYLE® 28 DVD system adds thrilling sound to your films and music with the combination of performance, elegance and simplicity you expect from Bose. It customises sound to your room with the innovative ADAPTiQ® audio calibration system. Our stylish media centre features a DVD/CD player and AM/FM tuner with RDS. DIRECT/REFLECTING® cube speaker arrays and a horizontal centre channel speaker fill your room with spacious surround sound. And all LIFESTYLE® DVD systems feature BOSE® link networking technology to connect compatible BOSE® products for a whole-home entertainment solution. And the VS-2 video enhancer simplifies your system's integration with other sources, including those with HDMI.

    An intelligent approach to home cinema

    From premium performance to elegance, the LIFESTYLE® 28 DVD system is made for your room - with all its unique characteristics. It includes the ADAPTiQ® audio calibration system to deliver a consistent surround sound presentation in any room, while offering greater freedom of speaker placement. This proprietary technology analyses and adjusts your LIFESTYLE® system's sound to your room's dimensions, speaker placement and preferred seating locations. In a matter of minutes, you'll have BOSE® quality sound the way you like it. Nice and easy.

    Great sound never looked so good

    The brushed silver media centre features an integrated DVD/CD player and AM/FM tuner with RDS. This one unit elegantly accomplishes everything that conventional home cinema systems use multiple components to achieve. But it's also the hub of a whole-home entertainment system, made possible by BOSE® link home networking technology. This home networking technology allows you to connect compatible BOSE® products to your LIFESTYLE® 28 DVD system for sound in as many as 14 additional rooms, even outdoors. Because, like you, your sound shouldn't live in one room. With BOSE® link technology, you can have independent volume control in each room, as well as access to two different audio streams from the same LIFESTYLE® system.

    DIRECT/REFLECTING® cube speaker arrays, standing roughly 15.7cm high, blend nicely with your décor. They combine with a sleek horizontal centre channel speaker to deliver a level of sound you'd expect from much larger speakers. And the ACOUSTIMASS® module - now 30% smaller than the previous model - reproduces deep, resonant low notes while stationed inconspicuously almost anywhere in your room. The result? Riveting surround sound that seems to come from the smaller speakers, whether it's the hypnotic whisper of rustling leaves or the pure power of a ferocious storm.

    Simplicity for your video sources

    Simplify the integration of a LIFESTYLE® system with your video sources - including those with HDMI - and get the best picture possible. The new VS-2 video enhancer automatically synchronizes the audio and video you want at the touch of a button. You'll receive the highest video resolution your TV can accept, all the way up to 1080p over HDMI. And you'll reduce the wiring to the back of the television to just one connection. 

    No matter what you want to hear - or where you want to hear it - the LIFESTYLE® 28 DVD system makes it all possible with performance, elegance and simplicity.
