Highlights
Micro Theater
Wireless subwoofer wall-mountable
Play DVD, DivX & MP3/WMA-CD
The Philips player is compatible with most
DVD and CD discs available in the market.
DVD, DivX®, (S)VCD, MP3/WMA-CD,
CD(RW) and Picture CD - all of them can play
on the player. SVCD stands for "Super
VideoCD". The quality of a SVCD is much
better than a VCD, especially much more
sharpen picture than a VCD because of the
higher resolution. With DivX® support, you
are able to enjoy DivX® encoded videos. The
DivX media format is an MPEG4-based video
compression technology that enables you to
save large files like movies, trailers and music
videos on media like CD-R/RW, and DVD
recordable discs.
Digital wireless subwoofer
The digital wireless subwoofer is optimized to
reproduce bass frequencies. The result is a
powerful reproduction of deep bass with the
minimum of distortion.
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.
Loudness
In the sound spectrum, high and low
frequencies are relatively less audible to human
ears - especially at low volumes. By activating
the Loudness feature, the bass and treble will
be amplified so you can savor a more balanced
sound perception overall.
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.
100W RMS
This system has 100W 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.
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.
Dolby Virtual Speaker
Dolby Virtual Speaker is a sophisticated audio
virtualization technology that produces rich
and immersive surround sound from a two-
speaker system. Highly advanced spatial
algorithms faithfully replicate the sonic
characteristics that occur in an ideal 5.1-
channel environment. DVD playback is
enhanced by expanding the 2-channel
environment. When combined with Dolby Pro
Logic II processing, any high quality stereo
source is transformed into true-to-life, multi-
channel surround sound. No need to purchase
extra speakers, wires or speaker stands to
appreciate room-filling sound.
