User questions & answers

Question:	can you hook a cd changer threw the system
Answer:	Dennis, There are two methods to hook up devices. The best would be the Optical input. From your TV or other device you use a TosLink Optical Cable. The second option would be the standard Red/White (L/R) audio cable that almost all stereo equipment has. So Yes, you can hook up a CD changer directly to the Bose CineMate GS Series II system as long as it has one of those two outputs.
Question:	Does anybody know if the remote runs a Direct TV Genie? I really don't like the idea of having to use 2 remotes. Thanks
Answer:	Yes, it replaces your Direct TV remote. Hence there's no need for a second remote. Also, the remote's universal and is able to control almost all TV and Direct TV functions. Make sure you use optical cable connection to your TV for best performance. Installation is relatively easy.
Question:	How does it compaire to the newer model CineMate
Answer:	The main difference is the speakers that come with it. The Cinemate GS Series II comes with a distinct left and right speaker, while the Cinemate 15 comes with a single sound bar style speaker. It depends on what type of set you want and if you want to use brackets, etc. Also, the Cinemate GS Series II comes with a separate inferface module cable to make the connection to the external devices. The CInemate 15 has the inputs on the back of the Soundbar speaker itself, so the setup is a little cleaner (less wires). Sound quality would be similar in both systems, although you may get a little more stereo separation in the CInemate GS Series II, due to the two distinct speakers.
Question:	Are the speakers connected with wire or wireless
Answer:	Hell Don, and thank you for the inquiry. The Cinemate GS Series II is a wired speaker system. There is a wire that runs from the output of the large bass module to the two small speakers. There is also a power cord on the bass module. The small audio input interface module also connects to the bass module via a wired connection. The external source (optical output on the tv typically) also connects via an optical cable to the optical input on the small interface module.

User questions & answers

Question:	I already have a nice subwoofer. Is there any way (even via wireless adapter of some type) that I can use it with the Sonos Playbar
Answer:	Paul, not directly, there are a couple options.. if the subwoofer is powered then you need to buy a Sonos connect and plug the subwoofer into that and then pair that in your settings to your playbar the other option if your subwoofer is not powered you would have to purchase a sonos connect amp and do the same thing, I have done both of these options in my home and they work very well. The sonos connect is half the price Of the sonos sub, you could look at it that way :-)
Question:	Watching movies.. do you have the problem of having to constantly adjust the volume to turn down action and turn up dialog
Answer:	30 years I’ve never had a product which both sounds amazing and deals with this problem, and it is a big problem with a lot of content. Everyone has their own special setting but the only ones that truly work also degrade the great sound. I don’t think electronics can solve this as well as having a sound-dampening room, because that’s what they are mastered for (curtained theatre) and most of us have reflective drywall.
Question:	Is there a way to connect all my inputs to a Denon 1612, connect that to the TV, and have the soundbar play sound from all sources
Answer:	Yes and no. The PlayBar has only one input: fiberoptic. The Denon AVR-1612 does not include a fiberoptic output, so you cannot directly connect the receiver to the PlayBar. But your TV should have a fiberoptic output, so if you connect all the devices to the Denon via HDMI cables, then connect an HDMI cable from receiver to TV, then fiberoptic cable from TV to PlayBar, you should get sound from all sources connected to the receiver. If you do it this way, make sure that HDMI Audio Output is set to ON in the receiver set-up menu. However, connected this way, you will *NOT* get sound from the Receiver's built-in AM/FM tuner, nor will you get sound from any older devices that are connected to the receiver using analog audio/video cables (typically red/white/yellow RCA cables). There really is no advantage to using the Denon receiver in this set-up, unless your TV only has one or two HDMI inputs and you're trying to add more. But you could do that more simply (and inexpensively) with a simple HDMI switch. For simplicity, I'd recommend connecting all devices to the TV with HDMI cables, and connect the fiberoptic output of the TV to the PlayBar. This way the TV handles all source switching and whatever source is selected on the TV will play through the PlayBar. Hope that helps.
Question:	Does anyone know how good the playbar sounds without the subwoofer
Answer:	It sounds pretty good without the subwoofer. We have a small room and have the playbar....two Play 3's and one play 5 and it sounds great. For our small house the subwoofer would be too much and that's saying something as my husband really likes to have some bass going. If you had a huge area to cover you might want the subwoofer. We used to have a bose system with a subwoofer and this sounds as good at that if not better. If you are really into your sound you probably will want something in addition to the playbar like the play 3's and/or play 5's. We went that route because we could move them into other rooms of the house easily. FYI - the playbar is not a petite piece so make sure you have room for it. I hope this helps!

User questions & answers

Question:	How do you join the wire of the speakers to make it longer
Answer:	Your question is a bit confusing. I'll try. The Benq W6000 without a bulb is completely fine. It just needs a bulb added to it to use. You can get a bulb already in the housing or save money and get a bulb and use the housing from the old bulb. Just swap them out. You would save a lot of money! There are YouTube videos which are helpful. The projector as long as there are no additional mechanical issues is fine. Like a car with a flat tire. The car just needs an inflated tire to operate as transportation. Hope that helps. Benq is a solid brand with an international reputation.
Question:	How can I see more pictures of the units you have that are on sale
Answer:	Based on the specs from Benq the W6000 is not designed to throw an image 10 feet away on a 100" 16:9 screen. I believe image will spill over edge of screen. My projector sits 12+ feet from 105" 16:9 screen.
Question:	Does the v20 have an inbuilt Bluetooth or must you connect other equipment with a wire
Answer:	I have verified on page 14 of the manual, and for a 110 inch screen size (diagonal) you can have the projector up to 6 meters away with smallest zoom, that in feet, will give you 19 feets.....So you fall 1 meter short....or 3 feets......My setup is with a 115" screen (diagonal) and projector is 5.5 meters away......
Question:	Hey guys. v20 purchased circa 2008. Does anybody know if there is a way to "upgrade" the firmware to be able to process Dolby sound properly
Answer:	That's a great question. I am selling my very good condition one with 500 hours on the bulb for 425$.
