Questions & Answers

Do the speakers have a wired or wireless connection?

Don, thank you so much for reaching out. A wired speaker system, the Cinemate GS Series II boasts quality sound. The output of the large bass module is connected to two small speakers via a wire. On the bass module there is also a power cord. Through a wired connection on the small audio input interface module, it also connects to the bass module. optical input on the small interface module also connects via the optical cable to the output of the external source (optical output on the TV typically).

The comparison to the newer CineMate 15 model is what makes this model stand out?

It differs mainly in terms of the speakers that are included. With the Cinemate GS Series II, you get a left and right speaker, and with the Cinemate 15, you get a single sound bar-like speaker for all of your music needs. In addition, the Cinemate GS Series II comes with an interface cable to connect to external devices so that you can use brackets, etc. It also comes with an optional interface module for connecting the device to the cameras. In the case of the Cinemate 15, the inputs are on the back of the speaker itself, making the setup a little cleaner (fewer It is unlikely that the sound quality would be significantly different between the two systems, though the CInemate GS Series II may offer a bit more stereo separation due to its

Would anyone know if the directTV Genie can be accessed through the remote control? The idea of having to use two remote controls just seems ridiculous to me. Thanks a lot! ?

You will no longer need your DirectTV remote control. Thus, there is no need for a second remote control. In addition, the remote has universal control and can be used to control almost every TV and Direct TV function. The best performance can be obtained with an optical cable connected to your TV. Getting started with the installation is fairly straightforward.

A CD changer can be hooked up to the system, right?

You can hook up devices in two different ways, Dennis. It would be ideal if the optical input was used. An optical cable lets you connect your TV or other device to the Internet. A second option is to use the standard Red/White (L/R) audio cable that is available with almost all stereo equipment. As long as it has one of those two outputs, a CD changer can be hooked up directly to the Bose CineMate GS Series II system.

Selected User Reviews For Bose CineMate GS Series II Digital Home Theater Speaker System

It has stood the test of time well
5/5

Since this device has been in my possession for nearly eight years, I have been able to listen to high-quality sound. Thanks Bose, my wife and I are impressed with the work! It is simply not in my nature to express negative feelings. As a result of moving several times, a lot of those processes have fallen through. I have dropped them several times and it was no problem. Although they've been handled, the speakers still appear to be fairly new. I still find the remote to be very responsive. This is still one of the best sounding albums ever! The sound quality is much better than I ever anticipated, and I will replace it with another Bose in the future. Using this method makes it easy to enjoy any kind of audio you desire. I commend you.

With the Universal Remote, this speaker system is the rock star of speaker systems
5/5

When it comes to Bose, there is no way to go wrong. Friends who spend more and get separate receivers and speakers have told me they are happy with their purchase. The one I chose, however, worked just as well in Even though assembly was not very difficult, you need to look for a place to put the receiver since it needs to be placed about three feet away from the TV and since mine is wall mounted, I actually had to put it on the ground. I switched on the speakers after the setup was complete, but once it was complete, I thought I was thrilled with it as was my family. The surround effect was very pleasing to the ear, as well as when the bass is turned on full or halfway, the effects are exquisite. During a 3D movie with this, the bass on full was excellent and the effects of the sound were impressive. In addition to the Universal Remote that is included, it has many other advantages as well. Since I was on the lookout for a Universal remote, I decided to use the one that Bose provided instead of buying one from Logitech. I had no problems at all with it This was a good purchase to go with my Panasonic TV, my Panasonic Blu Ray player One of the only items it could not pair with was Roku Player (I wish that there had been some firmware upgrade to make it work), but I know that is If you have just one flaw, you can take away a star from you. Not at all. It is a speaker system that is worth 5 stars in my books.

The System is great if you're on a budget and need a system for the bedroom or living room
4/5

There is more For the bedroom, this system is very appealing to me. This fish requires very little space, and it may make a good catch if purchased for the right price. Make sure you don't spend more than You start to see better products in the future once you start doing this. In the first and second quarters of next year, the price should drop since the model has been replaced. If you miss the holiday sales, be patient through the first quarter. Dropping should be the right move. You can view all my other videos on my You Tube channel. You can search for reviews on Isaiah's website. Thanks a lot!.

Oh my gosh! I cannot even begin to describe how amazing, incredible, absolutely wonderful this The sound system is equipped with speakers
5/5

Bose is great! Thanks for your contributions! As if you were watching a movie at the movies, you're watching television! It is impossible to describe how amazing the sound is coming from these little speakers. A crisp sound. It is clean. Everything you hear is heard by you It doesn't even matter if a leaf blows across the street. When it comes to the sub, it is so powerful you do not even need to crank it up all the way before you feel the vibrations. I am surprised to discover that you can increase the volume of the entire system without affecting the sound quality. Your senses will be overwhelmed by the sound. You can also set it up very easily and use it immediately. Set up and usage of the universal remote has been the easiest I've ever experienced. The Monster M850 DFO- be sure to purchase it The 8th to the 10th day It is recommended that you use Series 850 Toslink Fiber Optic Audio Cable (8 feet) to connect to your television, as it is noticeably better than the audio cable that comes with it. Be sure not to miss the Monster MON129340 iCable 1000 for the iPhone and iPod. You will be able to hear your music clearly It's like having a live recording studio in your living room. In addition, the Bose stands are essential in order to have a full understanding of what this system is capable of. Totalling $700, you'll spend nearly all of your budget on the trip. However, if you love watching television and listening to music half as much as I do, you will regard this cable package as a gift that keeps on giving for years to come. Listening to this was an extraordinary.

The details on how to operate Sound are OK, but could be better
3/5

I made the purchase to go with the new Sony 55" There is usually much better sound from the television than from the Companion 5 speakers I've connected to my exercise room TV. However, I do prefer the sound from the Companion 5 speakers. The reason for the difference is not clear to me As far as the systems are concerned, they are However, it exists. Perhaps the room acoustics are problematic The speakers sound great, but Bose has not figured out how to better integrate them with the TV. It does not appear on the internet or in any other way You might be able to see what the speaker volume is on the screen or on the hardware. Putting a display on e would have been a good idea. To show the volume, a central control box is used. In addition, there is no way to control bass or treble effectively. It was the form factor that made me buy Bose There are currently too many sound bars on the market that I dislike. As far as the sound goes and the form factor is concerned, I am satisfied. Although it's a great product, there are a lot of details that can be improved.

This system was very dissatisfying compared to the television I had before this purchase
5/5

Prior to getting this system, I had a soundbar on my 65" TV and it was very disappointing. This is the first time I've heard a difference in sound since I hooked up the RCA cable. I am very pleased with how fast and easy it is to connect and how good the sound is. Whenever I watch a movie or anything else, my ears are filled with new sounds. While watching blue ray movies I had no problems with the sound or the lack of sound. The cable box couldn't be linked to my TV, so I was suggested to hook it up through my TV. This method didn't cause me to notice any flatness or a lack of quality in sound. My experience with this item was extremely positive and I am happy I bought The price was well worth it. My recommendation to anyone is to give it a try. In addition to the speaker stands, I also bought a pair of speakers. I am very satisfied with the service.

There are a lot of problems with Amazon
3/5

For example, this specific sale, they sent me a Bose surround sound that was completely refurbished - you can go inspect the spray painted subbox and see glitches and scratches that have The remote control did not work, there was no power cord, and after everything was set up, the item didn't even work. I hope Amazon will not accept any type of vendor from this type of behavior There was nothing new about that product, I was expecting a brand new one.
Bose is a quality product that just ruined this company's.
