Sound Enhancement
Dolby Surround ProLogic® 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 (5.1 DVD, DTS - and AC-3 /
Dolby Digital® prepared) - Six input connectors
at the back of the set and five amplifiers enable direct
connection to digital surround sound from DVD
players, Digital Televisions and other audio/video
sources with six channel output connectors and built-
in AC-3/Dolby Digital® MPEG, DTS or any other
(future) decorder type.
Digital Surround Sound - (only via 6 channel input)
Like in AC-3/Dolby Digital® MPEG and DTS are
available on DVD, Laserdisc, satellite broadcasts and
digital TV, and delivers the ultimate experience in home
theater surround with six discrete channels of digital
CD sound quality.
400W surround power output - The five,
3x100W (left, right, center) + 2 x 50W (rear)
amplifiers together deliver 400 Watts of home cinema
power. The stereo output power of 100W per
channel is specified at 6 Ohm, DIN, 1kHz 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.
Subwoofer output connection - Affords easy
access to greater dimensions in home theater sound
with output signals made available for connections to
a powered subwoofer.
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 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.
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 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
output power). One Touch End - puts your complete
home theater system into standby after some
exciting hours of cinema enjoyment.
All Dolby Surround ProLogic® 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. Notice that
the user is not bothered with delay times but is
asked to enter the distance to front and surround
speaker via the menu navigator rotary.
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 1-
2-3 with the menu navigator.
Front A/V, Game Input - For quick and easy
connection to e.g. a camcorder or video games.
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.
Convenience
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, /14)
Display brightness adjustment - Conveniently
adjusts the brightness of the display in 3 steps.
Switched mains outlet - Allows to connect another
HiFi component. Switching the receiver to standby will
automatically switch off the connected set.
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, /14)
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.
