Sound Enhancement

Dolby Surround Pro-Logic Sound - Provides the current industry standard for home cinema sound from VCR and TV broadcast. The front left and right speaker deliver detailed, directional sound as the center speaker 'steers' dialogue/vocal sound and center screen action at the TV screen. Both surround speakers add a greater sense of depth with special effects and time delay, making every living room a home theater with spaceships overhead, aliens behind the couch.
6 Channel input (DTS - DVD Audio prepared) Six input selectors at the back of the set allow to connect to any type of multichannel decorder. Be it Dolby Digital, DTS, DVD Audio or Super Audio CD. The 6 Channel input makes your system future proof!

Convenience

Cinema Link System Control Bus - When connected to a Philips TV with 'Cinema Link' (and even better, in addition a Philips VCR and or DVD player), the combination offers an interesting range of extra user benefits: One Touch Cinema - upon starting your e.g. DVD disc, the complete system will automatically switch to the correct source and sound mode. High Resolution OSD - the onscreen display of the television will feature the 'receiver' menu option. This option can be used for easier receiver set-up and receiver settings. Multiple Languages - depending on the languages offered by the TV (likely are Spanisch, French and English) the user can operate the set via the TV menu in his/her native language. TV as Center speaker - allows to get rid of the separate center speaker and use all the speakers and amplifiers in the TV to function as center speaker (most large screen Philips TVs provide over 50W of sound pressure). One Touch End - puts your complete home theater system into standby after some exciting hours of cinema enjoyment. All Dolby Surround Pro-Logic modes and delay times - Available Dolby modes are 3-Stereo (when using only the front speakers), Center Phantom (when not using a center speaker) and Center Wide / Normal (depending on the capabilities of the center speaker). Delay times of 15, 20, 25 and 30 milliseconds are available. The user is not bothered with delay times but is asked to enter the distance to front and surround speaker via the menu navigator. 42-key Audio/Video remote control - To operate all main receiver functions and many other Philips CD players, VCR's, Televisions and DVD players. The remote has a clear ergonomically designed lay-out (see picture) Set up Menu Navigator - The menu navigator rotary knob takes away many buttons from the set, thereby reducing complexity and enhancing usability of the set. The menu navigator is a menu-based user interface used for all kinds of initial set-up operations (speaker set-up, tuner installation etc.) Via icons in the display, the system conveniently guides the user to the next step in the receiver set-up. In normal mode, the menu rotary functions as tuner preset dial. 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 12-3 with the menu navigator. Switched mains outlet - Allows to connect another HiFi component. Switching the receiver to standby will automatically switch off the connected set.

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. RDS EON News & Traffic Announcement (TA) - Many RDS capable radio stations are of the so called EON (Enhanced Other Network) type. These stations are able to detect news broadcasts and traffic announcements of other stations in the same 'network'. The receiver display indicates when the active station is EON-capable. When 'News' and/or 'Traffic Announcement' are activated by the user, the tuner will automatically switch to the correct station when a news bulletin or traffic announcement is broadcasted. Afterwards the tuner conveniently switches back to the original station. News and TA not only work in tuner mode; when the receiver is set to any of its other sources (e.g. CD, VCR, CDR, etc.) it switches to the tuner whenever there is a news or traffic bulletin. Whatever you're listening to, Philips keeps you informed on the most recent traffic and news affairs! (Note : although all EON station offer TA, News might not be widely available in every country). For RDS stations, station name, RDS clock and RDS Text information are available. (/00) Standby power < 2W - To save energy consumption, the standby transformer of this set has been designed not to consume more than 2 Watt in standby mode. Scart audio adapter - For easy connection between TV and VCR or DVD. (cable includes 'Cinema Link' connection) (/00)
300W surround power output - The four, 5x60W (left, right, center, rear) amplifiers together deliver 300 Watts of home cinema power. The stereo output power of 60W per channel is specified at 6 Ohm, 1 kHz 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. '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. Loudness, bass and treble control - Loudness is a dynamic sound adjustment that amplifies high and low frequencies depending on the volume (the higher the volume, the less the amplification). Thereby it creates a 'richer' sound impression already at low volume. Bass and treble allows sound adjustment of high and low frequencies to personal preferences. Equalizer Smart Sound modes - 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, TVseries 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.

Design

Harmonized Philips Home Cinema Components Design - The design of this component follows the design language of the Philips Harmonized Home Cinema design. Characteristics of this design language are stylish, simple, capable, powerful and rich. All Philips Home Cinema components and HiFi components will follow this design (e.g. VCR, CD Changer, CD Recorder, DVD, etc). Display - Color and graphic/character size are defined such that at visibility remains clear even at largest distances. Remote Control - The form of the remote control has proven very successful in usability test. The weight, shape and button follow the book in terms of ergonomic design, thereby offering maximum convenience.
