System Features
1.1 Speaker System: The CineMate 1 SR Home Theater Speaker System offers spacious home
theater sound from a sleek soundbar speaker & wireless Acoustimass module. The
CineMate 1 SR connects directly to your flat-panel HDTV, with no additional AV
receiver required. The CineMate 1 SR system's sound can be customized to your
room size, shape, & furnishings. Exclusive Bose innovations enable wide,
spacious sound that extends well beyond the soundbar speaker's physical size.
And the wireless Acoustimass module adds emphatic low-notes to your movies,
music, & games; while its neatly tucked away from view. The CineMate 1 SR Home
Theater Speaker System is all controlled with a simplified universal IR remote.
Soundbar Speaker Array: The soundbar speaker uses a Speaker Array
design & PhaseGuide sound radiators,
along with TrueSpace technology to direct sound with precision, sending
acoustic detail to the left, right & center of your room.
- Speaker Array Design: The soundbar speaker array features five
identical transducers with powerful neodymium magnets.
- PhaseGuide Sound Radiators: The soundbar speaker also employs two
PhaseGuide sound radiators to deliver room-filling sound.
- TrueSpace Technology:
Proprietary TrueSpace digital processing circuitry delivers a spacious,
multichannel sound experience with strong left, right & center imaging from
a single soundbar speaker.
Wireless Acoustimass Module: The wireless Acoustimass module produces deep
low notes for added home theater realism. The wireless link allows for flexible
placement & does away with any speaker cables from the module to the soundbar.
The wireless Acoustimass module adds dramatic low notes to your entertainment,
without the addition of more cables. The soundbar speaker & Acoustimass module
are paired at the factory.
Note: To avoid wireless interference, keep other wireless
equipment, such as wireless computer network routers, cordless phones,
microwave ovens, or other WiFi-enabled audio/video devices away from the
soundbar speaker & Acoustimass module.
Bose ADAPTiQ Audio Calibration System: The soundbar speaker's
performance is customized to the acoustics of your room with the Bose ADAPTiQ audio
calibration system.
ADAPTiQ audio calibration system analyzes the way your room's
dimensions & other variables affect sound, then automatically adjusts the sound
of your speaker system to the acoustics of your room. To perform a
calibration you need about 10 minutes when the room is quiet. While wearing the
special headset, the system will ask you to place yourself in five different
locations (sitting or standing) in your listening area as the system takes
measurements in each. Audio prompts from the system will guide you through the
process.
Dolby Digital/DTS: The Bose CineMate 1 SR features optical & coaxial
digital inputs, while providing digital 5.1ch decoding for improved realism from
5.1ch-encoded Blu-rays, DVDs, DBS, or HDTV.
Controls
Remote Control:
The CineMate 1 SR system includes a universal remote that can be programmed to
control your TV, DVD or Blu-ray Disc player, cable/satellite box, & VCR. With
this universal remote, you can enjoy the convenience of using only one remote
control for all your home theater equipment.
- Source Control: You can easily switch control from one source to
another by pressing the appropriate source button at the top of the remote.
In addition to controlling the selected source, the remote will always
control the basic speaker functions (on/off, volume, mute) of the CineMate 1
SR system.
- Navigating On-Screen Menus: The menu & program selection buttons
will control only one source at a time. Select the source you want to use
first.
- Playback Controls: The functionality of the source playback
buttons may vary depending on the type & brand of your device. The remote
offers Play, Pause, Top, Fast Forward/Rewind, Next/Previous, numeric keypad
controls.
Bass Control Knob: The bass control knob located on the rear-panel of
the Acoustimass module allows you to change the bass level output of the system.
Turn the bass control knob clockwise to increase the bass or counter-clockwise
to decrease the bass.
Connections
Audio Connections: The CineMate 1 SR digital home theater speaker
system takes the place of your TV's built-in speakers. This is done by
connecting your TV's audio output to the TV audio input (TV Input) on the
CineMate system. In addition to the connection from the TV, you can also connect
up to two audio/video devices (sources) directly to the CineMate system's
auxiliary inputs (AUX) to assure the best possible sound quality from these
sources. The soundbar speaker is equipped with bottom-panel analog & digital
audio inputs for TV & Auxiliary.
- TV Input: The soundbar is fitted with an analog stereo audio
input, an optical digital audio input, & a coaxial digital audio input to
connect to a wide variety of televisions.
- Auxiliary Input: The soundbar is also fitted with an optical
digital audio input & coaxial digital audio input to connect up to digital
audio sources (Blu-ray/DVD player, Cable/Sat box) for optimum sound quality.
Note: To enjoy the full benefit of hearing TV audio through the
CineMate 1 SR system, the internal speakers in your TV should be turned off.
SmartSource Input Selection: The SmartSource input selection system
automatically monitors the speaker's TV & Auxiliary inputs. As you switch
sources, the system retrieves the best audio signal available. What you see & what you
hear is always in sync.
Cable Management: There are cable clips on the bottom-panel of the
soundbar speaker to neatly organize the system's audio cables.
AC Power: Because the soundbar speaker & wireless Acoustimass module
are self-powered, each requires a separate AC power connection.
Mounting Options
Flexmount Technology: Proprietary Flexmount technology ensures optimal performance
wherever the soundbar is positioned. The soundbar speaker can be mounted to a
wall (using the optional
WB-135 bracket, sold separately); or placed flat on a table. Flexmount technology detects the soundbar
speaker's orientation & ensures optimal audio output however you position the
speaker. To raise the soundbar speaker and allow more space under it, you can
install the included extension feet.
Note: The CineMate 1 SR system uses the reflective surfaces of
your room to deliver wide, spacious sound. For best sound quality, the
speaker array should not be placed inside a cabinet, or diagonally in a
corner.
Acoustimass Module Placement: When placing the Acoustimass module on
bare floors, or other smooth surfaces, attach the included rubber feet to the
bottom of the module for greater stability and to protect your floor. For best
sound quality, place the Acoustimass module on its feet along the same wall as
your TV, or along any other wall in the front third of the room. The front
opening of the module can face any direction.
