The "What's in the Box" section indicates that the system includes "1 powered Acoustimass module." Can you verify that the module is really AC powered.

This is NOT ac powered. It has left and right inputs behind the sub that you connect with your receiver, and left and right outputs for the cube speakers.

No, the module isn't AC powered. But is really fantastic, high quality sound.
1871383
It is not. Its an all passive system that is powered by an amplifier or receiver.

I have this exact model. There is no AC power. I also use a Bose center speaker and a JBL wireless throw to 2 Polk audio bookshelf rear speakers. I have Series 4 for a year now and really enjoy it. We have a large family room with 25 ft tall ceilings and the quality is great for the price

Not AC powered. This set up requires the use of a receiver. The bass will hook up to the receiver and the speakers hook up to the bass.

The Acoustimass module is NOT powered! The speaker wires come into the module from your receiver and then back out to the cubes!

Mine just arrived and it says 120vac only not dual or universal so it going back to the store. Besides I'm not happy with its sound, I expected much better sound for its size than my other bose sounddocks (1-sounddock and 1-portable).

It is not. You will still need to power it via the included power supply (AC adapter).

Its ok i guess. I have the power acoustik rz4 2000d's. Ran 2 of them to 2 of them 15's. Have them for sale now for 150$. Less fuses the better. That one has 2

If I remeber correctly it was 800 watts. But it was built very cheap. I would suggest save up a little more money and go with a sony system. I returned this sound system in a day. Went with a sony and I'm happy

Make sure your cables are good and your connections are good. The modulator is pretty simple and there isn't a heck of a lot of things that can go wrong with it. If you are sure all your connections and source are good, then it might be a faulty box.

It is bus powered, but also includes a power supply, so you have the option.-Pro Audio Land

Not sure all my stuff is powered. Call seismic aufio. These guys are really helpful. They have great equipment at a decent price.

Yes, but I also needed a "Toslink to Analog RCA Audio Converter Adapter" (not a battery powered model), as my Surround sound system is an older model. Works great!
1488539
yes it is powered. u plug it into an outlet. and it does have the RCA plugs. i just use a single subwoffer cable, because my amp doesnt have the L and R plug ins for the sub, just a single output.

I agree with Peter. I don't have this receiver (yet), but I have the Acoustimass 7 series, and whenever I set up a component (BD player, DVD-Audio player, etc), I set it up as if I have large speakers, but NOT a subwoofer. I'm assuming that the Acoustimass 10 (like the 7) does NOT connect to the subwoofer connections on the back of the receiver. So if you're running this Audyssey test as if you have a subwoofer, it's trying to test something that's not there.

Yes I have mine set up running power to 2 power acoustik Mofo-154x and it does the job well. A ported box is better in my opinion because the bass will sound deeper and louder than a sealed box, but this is a good amps for the subs

Nope not at all it is all in box oh and just warning you I have have had them for a little and they now have very bad static noise when I turn it up load or when I change the volume just saying

Works with Windows 7 and yes it is an AC powered unit. I believe it's 15 watts, but the sound is far better than anything I have run across with that wattage. Much better than USB power at only 5 watts. Plenty of loudness and nice clarity to the top of the range. Still using this 3 years after purchasing. Hope this helps...

No power output on this one most powered soundboards will be marked power. You will need to buy an amplifier separate with this one though.

I have a newer system (V35), and all connections MUST go though the bass module. However, I think the Acoustimass system can be hooked up directly to the Receiver. I have talked to technical support at Bose, and they are very responsive and helpful, so I would suggest you give them a call.

Sadly I can't answer that question as it was a gift for my son. I've listened to the system but have no way of validating that claim. However, as a Tech I would say that the unit will not put out that much power. It may peek at that. With most sound systems they tend to over rate the output. Just my 2 cents....LOLHope this was helpful.
