Sound Enhancement

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.

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.

350W surround power output - The five, 3x60W (left,
right, center) and 2x60W (rear), receiver amplifiers together
with the 50W subwoofer amplifier deliver 350 Watts of
home theater power. The stereo output power of 50W per
channel is specified at 6 Ohm, 40Hz-20KHz and 0.7% total
harmonic distor tion (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.

50 W powered subwoofer - Subwoofers add dynamism
to normal music and motion pictures. It sets the stage for a
more intense sensation. The 50W Philips subwoofer features
a down-firing 61/2" woofer to reflect sound waves off the

floor, thereby adding impact. In all, the subwoofer is
sufficiently power packed to generate that cinema essential
sonic sound boom.

Digital Sound Processing via DUET CORE - Philips
Semiconductors is highly specialized in digital sound
processing. One of their crown DSP (digital sound
processing) ICs is the 'DUET'. The DUET's huge processing
power of 80 MIPS (million instructions per second) assures
the highest possible accuracy in digital audio processing.
Other characteristics are automatic detection of source
(AC-3, MPEG or PCM audio) and smooth (clicking free)
automatic switching between coding formats. Furthermore
DUET carries digital bass cross-over filters (for subwoofer
signal) and 3rd generation virtualizer algorithms for highly
realistic virtual Dolby. Lastly, DUET has the unique capability
of translating Dolby Digital multi-channel sound into a
stereo signal suitable for digital recording onto e.g. CD-R.

Virtual 3D Surround / Virtual Dolby® Surround - A
Dolby Surround playback system delivers amazingly rich and
convincing surround sound from only the two (or three)
front speakers. The Pro-Logic or Dolby Digital® surround
channel is processed by a 'virtualizer' DSP to add the
surround effect from just the front speakers. The Philips
virtualizer algorithm on the 'DUET' DSP is the current state
of the art reference for virtual surround sound processing.

'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.

Equalizer Smart 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.

Screw terminals - For left , right and center speaker
connection ensures a loss-less flow of electrical signals from
the set to all main loudspeakers.

Convenience

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.

Stereo Downmix - 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)

Night mode - Establishes dynamic range compression of
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!

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.

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!

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!

51-key Audio/Video Multi Brand Universal remote
control
- To operate all main receiver functions and Philips,
Magnavox or any other mainstream branded CD player, tape
deck, VCR, television and DVD player, Satellite or cable box!
The remote will operate your non-Philips/Magnavox
equipment by simply entering a code from the instruction
manual in the remote control. The remote has a clear
ergonomically designed lay-out (see picture)

30 tuner presets with station name display - The
available tuner presets can be randomly used to store AM
and FM stations (30 in total). Each of the presets can be
given a user defined name of up to 8 characters. Giving the
preset a name is as easy as 1-2-3 with the menu navigator.

Tuner sensitivity adjustment - The tuner sensitivity to
pick up radio stations can be set to high and low. In case of
low, only the 'strong' stations will be picked up during a
search. When even some of the weaker stations are of
interest, the 'low' option will pick up every station the tuner
can possibly receive.

Display brightness adjustment - Conveniently adjusts
the brightness of the display in 3 steps.

2 switched mains outlets - Allows to connect another
HiFi component. Switching the receiver to standby will
automatically switch off the connected set.

Standby power <2W - To help save energy consumption,
the standby transformer of this set has been designed not to
consume more than 2 Watt in standby mode.
