First off, here's the owners manual (http://worldwide.bose.com/productsupport/assets/pdf/guides/acoustimass/en/owg_en_am6_series3_am10_series3.pdf) for your unit.

Looking at the connection instructions,you'll need a full receiver with five amplifiers and speaker level outputs and one (what appears to be) a RCA subwoofer output.

If you got this setup used, I really, really hope you have all the connecting cables. Without them, you're kinda boned and will have to get them directly from Bose.

Good luck
