Highlights
Docking system for iPhone/iPod
Aluminium
Dual alarm
Designed with modern day lifestyles in mind,
this clock radio has a dual alarm feature,
allowing you to set different alarm times for
weekdays and weekends or even vary the
alarm settings for couples. The alarm settings
can be tailored for the same alarm times for
the entire week from Monday to Sunday. Or
you can set the alarm for an early start on
weekdays from Monday to Friday, and lazy lie-
ins for Saturday and Sundays. Whichever you
choose, this convenient feature saves you from
the hassle of fiddling with different alarm times
every single night.
Play and charge your iPhone/iPod
Enjoy your favourite MP3 music while charging
your iPhone/iPod! The dock lets you connect
your portable device directly to the Docking
entertainment system so you can listen to your
favourite music in superb sound. It also charges
your iPhone/iPod 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.
Gentle wake up call
Start your day the right way by waking up
gently to a gradually increasing alarm volume.
Normal alarm sounds with a pre-set volume
are either too low to wake you up or are so
uncomfortably loud that you are rudely jolted
awake. Choose to wake up to your favourite
music, radio station or buzzer alarm. Gentle
wake's alarm volume gradually increases from
subtly low to reasonably high in order to gently
rouse you.
Digital Sound Control
Digital Sound Control offers you a choice of
pre-set Jazz, Rock, Pop and Classical 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 maximises your music
enjoyment by emphasising 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.
MP3 Link for portable music
The MP3 link connectivity allows direct
playback of MP3 content from portable media
players. Besides the benefit of enjoying your
favourite music in the superior sound quality
delivered by the audio system, the MP3 link is
also extremely convenient as all you have to do
is to plug your portable MP3 player into the
audio system.
