Note:
This equipment has been
tested and found to comply
with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to Part
15 of the FCC Rules. These
limits are designed
to provide reasonable
protection against harmful
interference in a residential
installation. This equipment
generates, uses and can
radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with
the instructions, may
caused harmful interference to
radio communications.
However, there is no
guarantee that interference
will not occur in a particular
installation. If this
equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or
television reception,
which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and
on, the user encouraged
to try to correct the
interference by one or more of
the following measures:
– Reorient or relocate the
receiving antenna.
– Increase the separation
between the equipment
the receiver.
– Connect the equipment
into an outlet on a circuit
different from that to
which the receiver is
connected.
– Consult the dealer or an
experienced radio/TV
technician for help.
Remarque :
Soumis aux tests en vigueur,
cet équipement est certifié
conforme aux limites de la
classe B du matériel
informatique et répond aux
spécifications de la partie 15
des recommandations de la
FCC. Ces spécifications
garantissent une protection
satisfaisante contre des
interférences en milieu
résidentiel. Cet équipement
crée et utilise des
rayonnements à des
fréquences radioélectriques et
peut, s’il n’est pas installé et
utilisé conformément aux
instructions, brouiller de
manière préjudiciable les
communications radio. En tout
état de cause, cela ne garantit
pas l’absence totale
d’interférences dans certaines
installations. Si cet appareil se
révèle être la source
d’interférences de ce type, ce
que vous vérifierez en le
mettant sous puis hors
tension, prenez les mesures
suivantes pour y remédier :
– changez l’orientation ou
l’emplacement de
l’antenne de réception,
– augmentez la distance
séparant l’équipement du
récepteur,
– branchez l’équipement sur
une prise secteur
différente de celle utilisée
par le récepteur,
– consultez le revendeur ou
demandez l’assistance d’un
technicien qualifié.
Observación:
El equipo ha sido probado y
cumple los límites de clase B,
Parte 15 del Reglamento de la
FCC para dispositivos
digitales. Estos límites
procuran una protección
razonable contra las
interferencias perjudiciales en
instalaciones residenciales. El
equipo genera, utiliza y puede
radiar energía de
radiofrecuencia, por lo que si
no se instala y utiliza
siguiendo las instrucciones del
manual, podría generar
interferencias perjudiciales en
las comunicaciones de radio.
No obstante, no hay garantía
de que no se produzcan en
una instalación particular. Si el
equipo origina interferencias
perjudiciales para la recepción
de radio o televisión, lo que
puede determinarse apagando
y encendiendo el equipo, se
aconseja al usuario que
intente corregirlas adoptando
una o varias de las siguientes
medidas:
– Cambiar de orientación o
de lugar la antena de
recepción.
– Aumentar la distancia de
separación entre el equipo
y el receptor.
– Conectar el equipo a una
toma perteneciente a un
circuito al que no esté
conectado el receptor.
– Consultar al distribuidor o
a un técnico experto en
radio y televisión.

Philips Digital Speaker System 330 is a 3 piece
stereo system, featuring :
– Digital, Class D, 50-Watt amplifier built into
the subwoofer
– Independently amplified, magnetically
shielded left and right speakers
– Wired remote control for easy accessibility
and flexible control
– Analog audio signal input and Universal
Serial Bus (USB) connection
Both connection types provide stereo, high
fidelity sound through the speaker system for all
audio sources. USB connection allows you to
hear digitally encoded audio sources, such as
music CDs or Wave files, as they are intended to
be heard. You will hear clearer, brighter digital
audio playback when it is playing through the
speaker system over USB.
The DSS330 is a speaker system using the
Universal Serial Bus for Digital Audio streaming
and control. System requirements are:
1 PC Audio Card (Analog) Support
Connect a 3.5mm plug cord to the AUDIO IN
jack of the subwoofer and to your soundcard.

jack, adjust the volume using your
soundcard/source control.

If you are installing your Philips USB-speakers
on a Windows 98 PC with a USB port, you do
not need a sound card.
Philips has provided the speakers with a set of
digital speaker control software. The speaker
control consists of an applet which enables you
to control on screen the volume, treble, bass and
balance settings of the speaker system.
Part of the speaker control is a device managing
software called PlugWorks (more information
about this software can be found in the
PlugWorks Quick Reference Guide).
