Can I connect my Bose wave music system to my LG LED TV LB55, lb56,lb62
Of course.
At the rear of your TV, find the Red and White RCA sockets, which are the Audio OUT.
At the rear of your Bose, find the Red and White RCA sockets, which are the AUX IN.
Using an RCA audio cable, connect those 2 pairs of RCA sockets.
Then, on your Bose, select AUX as the source, and if you've done EVERYTHING correctly, your Bose will now be the speaker system for your TV.
A CD is stuck in my bose system How do I get it out?
From an other web site
If you have a cd or two stuck in your Bose wave radio, here's how to remove it and save yourself $99. This procedure is for the radio (model AWRCC1 or similar) with a single front loading cd slot.
PART I
1. First unplug the power, wait a minute, and then replug power, watching the front display.
2. The display will read "Ejecting". If the cd ejects, then you're done and can skip Part II. If it doesn't eject and/or it displays "Disk error" then you'll need to do the Part II steps.
PART II
1. Unplug the power cord.
2. Turn the radio upside down with the front facing you.
3. Remove the 5 screws from the bottom plate.
4. Hinge the front of the bottom plate up no more than 2". Don't overdo this or you'll damage various ribbon cables inside. Use extra hands or a prop to keep it open this amount.
5. Reach inside and tilt-up the front of cd player's metal housing just enough to access the rims of the cd(s) within the space created in step 4.
6. Pinch the rim(s) of the cd(s) and gently pull it/them out.
7. Reverse these steps to reassemble your radio.
Enjoy your cd player again!
How do I change lens on Bose Wave CD player
You need to buy the correct replacement lens - usually on ebay is a good selection. Keywords - Bose Laser. Email the seller, and ask for help to identify which lens you need.
Then disassemble your machine, and install the new lens.
If that's too complicated for you, have a local technician do the work.
How I clean the lens?
There are special cleaning CDs with bristle hair attached.
You moist them with the special supplied liguid and put the cd in to play.As they spin they gently brush the lens and clean off any debris.
Otherwise you have to open the machine to do it manually with a microfibre cloth (GENTLY) and clear alcohol (JUST A DROP)...
Bose music system remote is inconsistent.
The notoriously unreliable SMD capacitors which Bose installed are long defective. That's just the start of your problems.
You'll need to replace those defective capacitors with much higher-quality units than the original.
Only a tech experienced with SMD work should attempt this repair.
Replacing the PCB will solve your problem for only a short time, as you are just getting the original standard junk again, but new.
Bose sound
You could try to clean the laser, with a special cleaning disk. Don't try to clean a laser by opening the player, you will damage the system.
If it is a CD burned in a PC, it also can be the laser is now a bit less, not capable reading CD-R or CD-RW, and still can read normal CD's

How can I get track names on wave bose
When you make a cd if the names are not coming in when you add the tracks you can try a feature on most programs which is called get track names or something similar if this does not work you can type them in manually most burning programs have the ability to do this . I have all these features on my burning programs . You would have to import the tracks into a new play list and try what I said bottom line is at the least you should be able to add the track names manually then burn and they will show up on most radios or CD players . Hope this helped
