Incredible Surround™
Incredible Surround is an audio technology from Philips 
that dramatically magnifies the sound field to immerse 
you in the audio. Using state-of-the-art electronic phase 
shifting, Incredible Surround mixes sounds from left and 
right in such a way that it expands the virtual distance 
between the two speakers. This wider spread greatly 
enhances the stereo effect and creates a more natural 
sound dimension. Incredible Surround allows you to 
experience total surround with greater depth and width 
of sound, without the use of additional speakers.
4x3 Expand
4x3 Expand enables widescreen movies to be viewed on 
a 4:3 aspect ratio TV screen by removing the black bars 
at the top and bottom of the image. You are able to 
watch full-screen movies without compromizing on
