GS
home entertainment system, which
offers superb sound, elegance, and simplicity in an advanced home audio setup. Using Bose
proprietary signal processing technology, the 3•2•1 systems provide improved spaciousness
from stereo recordings, and bold movie effects from surround-encoded materials. Yet its few
parts require little effort to set up, so you can enjoy your new system’s performance right

Selecting compatible discs
The DVD/CD player built into the 3•2•1 media center can play the following types of discs
identified by their corresponding logos:
•Video DVDs
• Audio CDs
• CD-R and CD-R/Ws
•MP3 on CD
Check for region code compatibility
For a DVD player and DVD disc to be compatible, their r
egion code numbers must match.
These numbers are allocated according to where the player and disc are sold. The 3•2•1
home entertainment system has a region code which must also match the DVD discs. The
user cannot change the 3•2•1 home entertainment system’s region code. Therefore, the
system should be purchased in the region in which it will be used.
Check the region code number on the carton of the 3•2•1 home entertainment system or on
the bottom of the media center that comes in the carton. Then be sure to choose only DVD
discs that show the same region number on the disc label or front cover. For example, a
Region 1 DVD disc should display the following mark:
