After a firmware update to a compatible AV35/AVM (35W) control consoles, a "SoundTouch wireless adapter" would add SoundTouch capabilities to the system.

The adapter plugs into the "BoseLink in"/"BoseLink" port at the back of the AV35/AVM (35W) control console. This powers the adapter and allows it to send sound to the receiver. You must also have a micro USB-B to USB-A cable to connect the "Setup-A" port on the adapter to the control consoles rear USB port. This will allow your control console to have on screen control.

### iPod/iPhone Dock

The dock was not included with AV35 (35W) control console, but it still can operate with it.

### Unify

*Main article: Unify*

This system guides users through installation of any products connect to the system through an on-screen wizard. It uses a reverse lookup to recognize the remote of 3rd party products to program its own universal remote.

### AdaptIQ

*Main article: ADAPTiQ audio calibration system*

The key feature of the system is the ADAPTiQ audio calibration system, which allows for the system to adapt to the owner's personal living room environment. The system plays tones through each speaker and listens with a microphone headset worn by the user, and based on what it "hears", the media center will calibrate and equalize each speaker to compensate for any acoustic abnormalities in the room. In this manner, any *Lifestyle* system will sound the same in any living room as the professional demonstration.
