Audio
The device is composed of different parts but they all complete a single system which is designed specifically to work as one, so you can't remove one of the parts and isolate it from the rest of the set. The two Articulated Array speakers serve as the main speakers that serve as the major sound source. On the other hand, the Acoustimass module serves as the low-frequency player that makes bass and percussion come out in an excellent manner. The remote control helps you navigate and operate the device more comfortably so you won't have to stand up or come near the set to fix it. However, there are no buttons on the devices, and the remote control is the only possible way for you to navigate the device. So don't lose that remote, and definitely don't break it.
The Proprietary TrueSpace digital processing circuitry, which is a trademark feature of Bose, is designed to deliver a spacious, multichannel sound experience with strong center amplification from just two visible speakers and an Acoustimass module. The Acoustimass module works together with the small speakers to deliver a complete and detailed range of theater sounds and effects. The patented Bose design of the system produces low frequencies for all channels with no audible distortion, minimizing the statics from playing music. The compact Articulated Array speakers provide thrilling home theater sound without the need for rear or center channel speakers, as seen in most surround sound system with lower quality.
Other Features
This system makes use of a 4-button remote control which enables you to manipulate the device at a fair distance.

It also connects directly to your TV while showing the status of your speaker system. The easy setup of this system makes it a lot more preferable than many other surround sound systems which need a lot of installation and connection all over the house.
