DVD/VCR Home Theater System
VCR Plus+
With the VCR Plus+ system, all you need to do
to program your video recorder is to enter the
‘Pluscode’ – a single code of up to nine digits
(but usually less) that is printed next to each
TV program in most TV guides.
Front AV Input
Front AV Input makes it much more
convenient to connect external devices like
audio equipment, games and video cameras. It's
the easy way to enjoy an extra audio sensation
or a totally immersive gaming experience.
One Touch Recording
Simply pressing the REC/OTR key will start a
recording. If ‘Direct Record’* is activated, the
(DVD) Video Recorder will automatically look
up the channel to which the TV set is tuned
and record from the same channel.* available in
Europe only.
Cinema Center Speaker™
Recreate and experience realism cinematic
experience right in your environment with
Cinema Center Speaker™. With a wider
sweet spot delivered by four multi-directional
woofers and a high frequency tweeter
positioned precisely at different angles, more
sound depths are distinguished from front and
background and action from dialogue. Natural
and crystal clear sound reproduction are
created through the revolutionary new 2" full
range woofers to give an incredible 'through
the screen' experience which creates the
sensation of being not just in the cinema but in
the movie itself.
DTS Digital Surround
DTS delivers superior surround sound with
your DVD movies.
Dolby Digital Surround
Because Dolby Digital and DTS, the world's
leading digital multi-channel audio standards,
make use of the way the human ear naturally
processes sound, you experience superb
quality surround sound audio with realistic
spatial cues.
Progressive Scan
Progressive Scan doubles the vertical
resolution of the image resulting in a noticeably
sharper picture. Instead of sending a field
comprising the odd lines to the screen first,
followed by the field with the even lines, both
fields are written at one time. A full image is
created instantaneously, using the maximum
resolution. At such a speed, your eye perceives
a sharper picture with no line structure.
6x Class D Digital Amplifier
When it comes to perfect audio there is no
room for distortion. Digital amplifiers generate
far less heat than standard analog amplifiers,
allowing for smaller set enclosures. Philips
Class D Amplifiers™ provide dramatically
enhanced sound quality over digital amplifiers
used by competitors as they are designed to
control and reduce EMI (Electro Magnetic
Interference). In addition, the Class D
Amplifiers™ use a closed loop design which
suppresses distortion and loss of audio quality.
The overall result is enhanced audio
performance from a much smaller package.

Multi-format playability allows you to play
most disc formats and VHS tapes for maximum

Multi-format Music
Multi-format playability allows you to play
