Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the Bose® Wave® music system, an elegant way to bring high-quality sound into any room. We encourage you to begin by listening to the demonstration CD provided. Simply insert the demonstration disc and your Wave® music system will play the CD automatically. For more details on playing CDs see “Playing audio compact discs (CDs)” on page 11. Over fourteen years of research by Bose Corporation brings you the benefits of award-winning patented acoustic waveguide speaker technology. Using this technology, a tube efficiently transfers energy from a small speaker to the outside air over a wide range of low frequencies. And, long waveguides, folded into intricate patterns, fit into products small enough to be placed comfortably in your home. Your Wave® music system features new dual tapered waveguide speaker technology, connecting two speakers to two 26″ tapered waveguides which combine to produce unprecedented instrument timbre from a system this size.

Playing music file (MP3) CDs

Your Wave® music system can play MP3 music files recorded on CD-R and CD-RW discs. You can easily navigate through your music files using the Tune/MP3 and Seek/Track remote control buttons.
Note MP3 is a music compression technology that reduces a song’s file size without a noticeable effect in the quality of the sound. Through compression algorithms, the MP3 format makes it easy for you to store many times the number of songs you would find on a conventional audio CD. In fact, an MP3 CD can contain as much music as ten standard audio CDs on just one disc, which can then be organized into folders on a PC before being stored on the disc. Music files on an MP3 CD are played according to the folder structure on the disc. For example

Folders on CD

Play order

To play, pause, stop or eject an MP3 CD, use the same remote control buttons as for an audio CD. See “Playing audio compact discs (CDs)” on page 11.
The Wave® music system will display artist name and song title information when available on music file CDs.
Note: The audio quality of MP3 CDs is dependent on factors such as the encoded bit rate, the sampling rate, and the type of encoder used. The Wave® music system supports MP3 CDs encoded at bit rates of 64kbps or higher, and sampling rates of 32kHz or higher. It is recommended that a bit rate of at least 128kbps and a sampling rate of 44.1kHz or better be used.
Note Playback quality of recorded CD-R and CD-RW discs is dependent on the CD recording process and software used to record the disc. An improperly recorded audio CD may cause the system to exhibit unexpected behavior.
