Sound Enhancem ent
'Hall' feature - For use with non-surround sound sources
in order to create a cinema effect through normal stereo
with rear speaker sound. This 'simulated' surround provides
an extra musical ('live') ambience to stereo sound.
Design
Dolby Digital Surround Sound - Available on DVD,
Laserdisc*, satellite broadcasts, Cable and as the standard for
HDTV, Dolby Digital® offers the ultimate experience in
home theater surround with six discrete channels of digital
CD sound. Discrete means that each channel carries its own
sound and depending on what happens on screen each
speaker plays its own unique role in providing the right
sound. Front left, center and right join two surround
speakers to reproduce highs, mid and bass frequencies in
five full-range channels of surround. Bass rumble, explosions
and low frequency effects you feel are delivered through a
dedicated sixth, subwoofer channel. Also known as AC-3
and Dolby 5.1, Dolby Digital® delivers the expanded sense
of depth, localization and overall realism which was formerly
only known from digital surround sound equipped cinemas.
Display - Color and graphic/character size are defined such
that at visibility remains clear even at larger distances.
Equalizer Sm art Sound - Has 5 modes, specially designed
to match the sound of various TV (and Audio) programs.
'Speech' is used for news, discussions and talk show
programs. 'Music' is used for music programs. 'Movie' is used
for movies or TV-series or soaps. 'Multi-Media' is used when
video games are connected to the TV. 'Personal'
corresponds with the bass and treble setting chosen by the
user.

6-speaker package - No less then 5 compact 2-way
satellite loudspeakers to build your personal cinema on a
stand or wall-mounted with the enclosed wall-brackets.The
five speakers are acoustically specially designed to match the
tonal characteristics of the receiver. Front left, right and
center speaker are magnetically protected to prevent any
interference with television picture tube purity. The sixth
speaker is a 50 watt powered subwoofer.
Digital inputs and output - 3 digital inputs (2 coax, 1
optical) are foreseen to connect digital sound sources (e.g.
DVD player, CD player and Digital TV). A digital output
connection (coax) is foreseen to enable digital (CD)
recordings from any of the digital inputs. The output can
provide a down-mixed (stereo) DVD multi-channel sound
signal in order to record from DVD to e.g. CD-R.

550W surround power output - The five, 3x100W
(left, right, center) and 2x100W (rear), receiver amplifiers
together with the 50W wOOx subwoofer amplifier deliver
550 Watts of home theater power.The stereo output power
of 80W per channel is specified at 6 Ohm, 40Hz-20KHz and
0.7% total harmonic distortion (THD). The amplifiers have
been designed with special attention to a short 'rise' and
'fall' time, so characteristic for the frequent and sudden
drastic changes in dynamics of movie sound in general.
Furthermore, the amplification reserves are designed such
that they are more than sufficient to follow sudden needs
for more sound pressure.
Stereo Downm ix - The digital output will automatically
provide a stereo downmix in case a multichannel signal is
detected at any of the digital input connectors. In that way
digital audio recordings can be made from movie DVD's
(e.g. Live concerts from music DVD's)

digital sound to reduce the volume differences between the
loud and soft passages in source material with digital
surround sound where sound level differences can be so
dramatic. This feature is especially useful at night when you
don't want to disturb the neighbors or wake up the kids!

50W powered wO O x subwoofer - Subwoofers add
dynamism to normal music and motion pictures. It sets the
stage for a more intense sensation. The 50W Philips wOOx
subwoofer features a down firing 5 1/2" active woofer to
reflect sound wave of the floor. Additionally a 6 1/2" wOOx
base radiator adds even more punchy bass. In all, the
subwoofer is sufficiently power packed to generate that
cinema essential sonic sound boom.
Video Connections - 3 video input connections and 2
outputs (incl. monitor) are foreseen to hook up video
sources. As these video inputs switch simultaneously with
the audio inputs, correct picture with correct sound is
guaranteed. All video connections are both S-Video and
composite video.
6 Channel input - Six input selectors at the back of the
set allow to connect to any type of multichannel decorder.
Be it DTS, DVD Audio or Super Audio CD. The 6 Channel
input makes your system future proof!
wO O x Technology
Philips patented wOOx Technology ensures superior bass
results. The dual suspension bass radiator, together with
dedicated amplifier circuitry, is especially designed to
produce and handle high dynamic sound signals at very low
frequencies. Because of the dual suspension, the excursion
of the membrane can be extreme (see illustration). This, in
combination with the symmetrical sandwich construction,
provides for very low and precise bass without noticeable
distortion. The net effect of using wOOx Technology is a
tight bass sound that is significantly "lower and louder" than
conventional mini shelf systems.

Product Dimensions:
Easy hook up - With color coded speaker connections for
quick and easy connection of all loudspeakers. By using
distinct colors for each of the speaker connection terminal
on the speaker and on the set, and using the same color for
the cable, the chance of faulty connection (and customer
complaints) are practically zero!
