Q: QuestionCan I hook up Bose wave external speakers?I own the Bose wave radio, CD and clock combination. It is about 6 years old. Now I want to hear it's great sound in another room and need to know if there is a way to attach speakers, or wireless speakers, or learn how to initiate Bluetooth. I'm a bit tech challenged. Can my unit adapt and bring my music into another room?

• A:Answer Hi Carol, Thank you for your question. If your system is 6 years old it sounds like you own the Wave Music System (non-SoundTouch variant). This was designed as a fully integrated system to provide great sound without needing additional speakers, and therefore extra speakers cannot be added for expansion. You may be interested in one of our SoundTouch speakers which connect to your home WiFi network. SoundTouch systems allow you to stream music wirelessly from various music services and music stored on your computer and also provide the option of expanding to multiple rooms of sound. The SoundTouch 20 Series II speaker for example can be seen here: http://bit.ly/1PiTVYg Thank you!

Q: QuestionPlay multiple CDs at same time?I received the basic Bose Wave Sound System 3 months ago. Can the additional CD player pictured under the basic system play multiple (3 or more?) CDs at the same time?

Asked 10 years ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer From the research I've done, the Bose 3-CD multidisc player will only 'continuous play' the tracks on one CD at a time. You cannot 'continuous play' multiple CDs at a time. Put another way, the three CDs in the changer will not play CD #1 (start to finish), then start CD #2 automatically (stat to finish), then automatically play CD #3 (start to finish). Continuous play only means track to track on a chosen CD.
