Asked 4 years ago by BoseMan.

• A:Answer Yes. The sub1 is not wireless so you have to connect one S1 Pro to the Sub1 with a 4-inch TRS to 1/4-inch TRS Cable or XLR. The cable will be connected to the Line Out on S1 Pro to the Line In on the Sub1. It is recommended to first power on the sub1 then the S1 Pro and the opposite when powering down. From there you can use the Bose connect app to play your music.
