On the rear panel of the media center there are jacks for AM and FM antennas (Figure 15).
Unwind the wires for each antenna to provide the best reception.

FM antenna
Plug the connector into the FM antenna jack on the media center rear panel. Spread out the
antenna arms at the other end and move them around to establish optimum FM reception.
Extend the antenna as far from the media center and other external equipment as possible.
AM antenna
1. Plug the connector into the AM antenna jack on the media center.
2. Move the antenna loop as far as possible, at least 20 inches (50 centimeters) from the
media center and at least 4 feet (1.2 meters) from the Acoustimass
with positioning the loop for optimum AM reception.
3. Follow the instructions enclosed with the AM loop antenna to stand it on the supplied
base, or mount it to a wall.
Connecting cable FM radio
Some cable TV providers make FM radio signals available through the cable service to your
home. This connection is made to the external FM jack on the back panel of the media center.
To connect to this service, contact your cable TV provider for assistance.
Note: Make sure that the cable radio installation includes a TV/FM splitter so that only the
FM radio band, not the cable TV band, is received by the media center. If necessary, contact
your cable company.

Questions and answers
How can I connect the PS 3.2.1 to my Samsung smart TV
@Terry Hill it appears to be a series II PS 3.2.1 I'd like to set to my Samsung smart TV
To connect the Bose 3-2-1 system to your Samsung smart TV, follow these steps:
1. Check Available Connections:
- The Bose 3-2-1 system uses older connections like composite video and digital audio.
- Your Samsung smart TV may have HDMI, optical, or component inputs.
2. Using HDMI (if applicable):
- If your TV has a compatible HDMI input and the Bose system supports HDMI, connect them directly with an HDMI cable.
3. Using a Composite Video to HDMI Converter:
- If your Bose system only has composite video output, you need a composite video to HDMI converter (not just a cable).
- Connect the Bose composite output (yellow RCA) to the converter's input.
- Connect the converter's HDMI output to your TV’s HDMI input.
4. Connecting Audio:
- If your Bose system uses digital audio, connect an optical or digital coaxial audio cable from the TV to the Bose unit.
- If only analog audio is available, use red and white RCA cables from the TV’s audio output to the Bose input.
5. Setup and Testing:
- Turn on both the TV and Bose system.
- Set the TV’s input to the correct HDMI port.
- On the Bose remote, select the appropriate input source.
If your TV lacks compatible ports, you may need additional adapters or a different connection method.
