Sound Enhancement

2 x 60 Watts RMS Stereo

60 watts continuous RMS power output per channel, at 6
Ohms, from 80Hz-16kHz, with no more than 10% Total
Harmonic Distortion (THD).

wOOx T echnology

Philips patented wOOx Technology ensures superior bass
results. The dual suspension bass radiator, together with
dedicated amplifier circuitry, is especially designed to produce
and handle high dynamic sound signals at very low
frequencies. Because of the dual suspension, the excursion
of the membrane can be extreme (see illustration). This is in
combination with the symmetrical sandwich construction,
provides for very low and precise bass without noticeable
distortion. The net effect of using wOOx Technology is a
tight bass sound that is significantly "lower and louder" than
conventional mini shelf systems.

double suspension = double excursion

Sound Navigation

(Jog + DSC + VEC)

The Sound Navigation System is a complete set of sound
manipulation tools consisting

6 Digital Sound Control settings : (CLASSIC, ROCK,
VOCAL, TECHNO, OPTIMAL, JAZZ),
6 Modes Virtual Environment Control : (Hall, DISCO,
CONCERT, CINEMA, CLUB, ARCADE),

Bass & Treble Control

Bass and treble allows sound adjustment of high and low
frequencies to personal preferences.

3-Step wOOx Level Control

As the human ear does not perceive low frequencies at
the same level as higher frequencies (though at the same
"volume"), the bass sound needs to be enhanced to
achieve maximum impact. The wOOx is progressively
driven at different optimization levels in setting wOOx 1,
2 and 3.

2-Way Bass Reflex Speaker System

Equipped with one 5 1/4" woofer and one 2 1/2" ferro­fluid cooled tweeter. 2-way enclosures feature a wider
range of frequency response for greater listening
pleasure.

AM/FM Stereo Digital Tuner
State-of-the-art precision tuning system insures precise ,
accurate station selection every time, along with the
greatest performance and reliability available.

Subwoofer Ready

Affords easy access to greater dimensions in sound with
output signals available for connection to a subwoofer.

Design Concept

The attractive and shelf appealing emphasis on the sound
control panel dominates and determines this range’s
character.

components with rich, high-tech styling.
