Product highlights
Multiple Playlist for USB PC Link
USB PC Link is a handy feature that lets you stream
music from your PC to your Philips audio system to
take advantage of the system's superior audio
performance.
Multiple Playlist for USB PC Link gives
you the freedom to create, manage and organize your
favorite MP3 music on your PC into mulitple playlists
that can be played back through your audio system.
Using your audio system or remote control, you can
easily access all the playlists created on your PC via the
USB PC Link connection.
Sound Agent
Sound Agent software improves the sound quality of
compressed MP3 music using the processing power of
your PC. The software utilizes sophisticated algorithms
to analyze sound along two dimensions:
the source of
the sound and the location of the sound being played.
The result is optimized total sound quality.
Sound
Agent’s intuitive graphical user interface gives you full
control of a wide range of sophisticated sound
variables, allowing you to set listening preferences using
over 20 modes.
It greatly enhances the quality of MP3
music streamed from your PC to your Philips audio
system.
MP3 CD Playback
The MP3-CD format combines the advantages of MP3
digital audio compression with the affordable and
widely accepted CD storage format. The end result is
that a tiny 8cm MP3-CD can hold over 3 hours of
MP3 music, while a normal 12cm disc can hold over
10 hours.
Using readily available software, you can rip
music from your audio CDs or download MP3 music
legally from the internet and burn it to a recordable or
rewritable 12cm or 8cm CD. The resulting MP3-CD
can be played back as though it were a normal audio
CD.
MAX Sound
MAX Sound technology produces an instant boost in
bass, maximizes volume performance, and instantly
creates the most impressive listening experience with
just a touch of the MAX Sound button. The MAX
Sound electronic circuitry calibrates the existing sound
and volume setting, and instantly boosts bass and
volume to a maximum level without distortion.
Both
sound spectrum and volume get noticeably amplified,
creating a potent audio boost that will add mileage to
any music.
MAX Sound lets you get the most from
your audio system without having to alter complicated
equalizer settings.
Class 'D' Digital Amplifier
Class ‘D’ Digital Amplifier takes an analog signal,
converts it into a digital signal and then amplifies the
signal digitally. The signal then enters a demodulation
filter to give the final output. The amplified digital
output delivers all the advantages of digital audio,
including improved sound quality.
In addition, Class ‘D’
Digital Amplifier has greater than 90% efficiency
compared to traditional AB amplifiers. This high
efficiency translates into a powerful amplifier with a
small footprint.
