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.

wOOx Technology 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
