    Tailoring the sound to your room
    The ADAPTiQ® audio calibration system ensures that your 
    Lifestyle® system sounds great. Completing the ADAPTiQ 
    audio calibration system process is the final step of a 
    basic Lifestyle
    ® setup. 
    If you have already completed the ADAPTiQ audio 
    calibration system process using the Bose
    ® Setup and 
    Demonstrations DVD please go on to the next section, 
    “Carton inventory” on page 8.
    A special headset, pictured in Figure 3, can be found in 
    the Essentials  kit. The headset, designed to be worn 
    above your ears , contains two miniature microphones that 
    take acoustic measurements during calibration. 
    You will achieve the best results when the listening room 
    is relatively quiet. Please notify other members of your 
    household that they will hear a series of audio tones. 
    On the connection panel of the media center (shown in 
    Figure 3), plug the ADAPTiQ headset into the  AUX 
    AUDIO IN  connectors.
