Hi,

First of all I would like to say sorry for my bad english wasn't that good at school 😉

My Problem is a lost audio input Cable for an Bose Acoustimass 25 series 2 Subwoofer to the Music Center. I know that the normal cable Partnumber is bose PN-253346 but there is no way to find out how it is wired it's some mytherios secret. i foud some pictures but stilll can not find out hoe this secret cable works.

If you could please help me out with making my own cable i would be so happy im searching for month now.

Thanx Flo

Yes I tried! But I life in germany and it's very hard to find it here I've seen that there are a lot in the US but you can not even find one here.

🙁 There is a big Bose facility here, I will ask them what can be done. Do not know if it will help though.

Is this it?

Bose lifestyle 25 Sub to Media Center cable

Bose Lifestyle 25 Sub to Media Center Cable | eBay

That would be so geat if you can find out. I can not really see if this cable is right because there are two variants one is from the series 1 wich has no Digital cinch and the one that I need is this one:
Bose Life Style Audio Input Cable 8 Pin to 13 Pin Subwoofer Cable | eBay

It has a 13 PIN + an Digital in Cinch on one side and a 8Pin on the other side.

Thanx !!!

This is a very late reply to this request for cable information but I have recently needed to check out connections of this very cable (Bose P/N 253346).
I have recorded the interconnection data in a spread sheet. Here is a pdf that may help those interested.

I have an Acoustimass 30 series II and Lifestyle 20 music center. I bought them in an auction, but I am missing the interconnect cable between the two. I am assuming they are compatible. The music center has an 8-pin and the Subwoofer has a 13-pin connector. I have seen several different cables that could fit my system, but I am not sure which one is correct. I would like to make my own using the diagrams from ukpete, but not sure if that is correct for my system. I contacted Bose for a part number, but they told me they don't like to give part numbers because they change(Interesting). Also ukpete, in the 8-pin side of your diagram I notice that pins 1 & 2 don't show a connection? I'm trying to avoid spending $30-40 on a cable.

Hi UKPete,

Thanks for the info. I have recently moved to a new place and during the move, I had to cut the heads of the 13-pin and the 8-pin connectors (cable was buried in the wall) hoping to reattach them to the new place. This has proven to be very difficult until today (2019) until my search led me here.

So thanks very much for the effort!

cheers!
