Digital Sound Control
Digital Sound Control offers you a choice of
pre-set Jazz, Rock, Pop and Classic controls
you can use to optimise the frequency ranges
for different musical styles. Each mode uses
graphic equalizing technology to automatically
adjust the sound balance and enhance the most
important sound frequencies in your chosen
music style. Ultimately, Digital Sound Control
makes it easy for you get the most out of your
music by precisely adjusting the sound balance
to match the type of music you are playing.
Dynamic Bass Boost
Dynamic Bass Boost maximizes your music
enjoyment by emphasizing the bass content of
the music throughout the range of volume
settings - from low to high – at the touch of a
button! Bottom-end bass frequencies usually
get lost when the volume is set at a low level.
To counteract this, Dynamic Bass Boost can be
switched on to boost bass levels, so you can
enjoy consistent sound even when you turn
down the volume.
10W RMS
This Philips music system has 10W RMS total
output power. RMS refers to Root Mean
Square which is a typical measurement of audio
power, or rather, the electrical power
transferred from an audio amplifier to a
loudspeaker, which is measured in watts. The
amount of electrical power delivered to the
loudspeaker and its sensitivity determines the
sound power that is generated. The higher the
wattage, the better the sound power emitted
by the speaker.
Play & charge your iPod/iPhone
Enjoy your favorite MP3 music while charging
your iPod/iPhone! The dock lets you connect
your portable device directly to the Docking
entertainment system so you can listen to your
favorite music in superb sound. It also charges
your iPod/iPhone while it plays so you can
enjoy your music and not have to worry about
your portable player battery running out. The
Docking entertainment system automatically
charges your portable device while it is
docked.
Wall-mountable
The perfect combination of a slim and versatile
design, your Philips audio system is cleverly
designed to blend into your living space. The
base of the audio system is a stand so the
system can sit securely and nicely on any shelf
or cabinet. When wall mounted you have all
the same flexibility of the freestanding stand.
USB Direct
With the USB Direct mode, simply plug in your
USB device to the USB port on your Philips
device and your digital music will be played
directly from the Philips device.
Digital tuning with presets
Simply tune into the station that you want to
preset, press and hold the preset button to
memorize the frequency. With preset radio
stations that can be stored, you can quickly
access your favorite radio station without
having to manually tune the frequencies each
time.
