Had someone from Best buy set up my new Sony bravia 47 in LCD TV. He said I should not use my slightly older Bose Cinemate digital home theater speaker system with the newer TV because the speaker system was analog and there would be a delay in sound. I have since learned that my "expert" installer was wrong on some other things. Was he right on this issue?

Mostly it'll work if it's Same CineMate Series. Other Models like Bose Companion won't work.

If you can't get this to work, I suggest you try to return the remote and buy and harmony remote. For me it worked very well with everything including old audio amps and you can configure your own activities.

i dont know if bose makes one, but one like this would work.
good luck!

can i connect more speakers to a cinemate bose

i found the codes book in the product website

from google tool bar type in bose cinemate manual and follow steps to universal remote control..and find code..there are 24 entries for Philips TVs

It may not have bass and treble controls, since most newer TV's now have these adjustments. Play around with your TV and see if you can find bass and treble adjustments from the remote.

call bose $45 including tax shipping

No it won't be like surround sound, but you'll have the next best thing: a nice, powerful, natural Hi-Fi sound. I have a 46 inch 1080p Sony connected to a Sony Blu-Ray and Bose Cinemate Speakers. No complicated rear speakers wiring, no awkward center speaker to hide. The only drawback is that Bose doesn't have (yet) a code to operate the Blu-ray player with the Cinemate remote control.

Hope this helps to make your decision.
