connecting Bose Companion 5 multimedia speakers to Sonos connect

Hi I have got a BOSE Companion 5 that i am trying to add to my setup via a Connect. I am connecting the 2 via the Audio out on the connect into the auxillary input on the Bose (this is located on the sound module Puck) I thought this would be a simple exercise but i am finding that i am only getting the faintest sound out of the speakers with no Bass at all.

My current setup includes a number of Play 1s throughout the house plus a B&W Zepellin attached to a second connect which also links to my Rega Turntable.

any ideas as to how i can get this to work ?

In the Settings->Room Settings for the Connect, set the Volume to Fixed.

I am also trying to use my Bose Companion 5 speakers via a connect. The Connect would have to be non-powered, correct? Line out to the boss puck aux, I hope. I just need to know which Connect to purchase to make this work.

If the bose speakers are self powered, then you'd need just the CONNECT. If you need to supply the speakers with the power of an amplifier, then go with the CONNECT:AMP.
