Sound Enhancement

Dolby Digital Surround Sound - Available on DVD,
Laserdisc*, satellite broadcasts, Cable and as the standard for
HDTV, Dolby Digital® offers the ultimate experience in
home theater surround with six discrete channels of digital
CD sound. Discrete means that each channel carries its own
sound and depending on what happens on screen each
speaker plays its own unique role in providing the right
sound. Front left, center and right join two surround
speakers to reproduce highs, mid and bass frequencies in
five full-range channels of surround. Bass rumble, explosions
and low frequency effects you feel are delivered through a
dedicated sixth, subwoofer channel. Also known as AC-3
and Dolby 5.1, Dolby Digital® delivers the expanded sense
of depth, localization and overall realism which was former ly
only known from digital surround sound equipped cinemas.

DTS - DTS surround sound is a cinema surround sound
audio format that offers superior digital audio performance
than other available surround sound formats. DTS offer
more clarity and definition especially for higher tones. The
better sound quality is a direct result of the limited sound
compression (3:1 instead of 11:1 for Dolby Digital) and the
20-bit resolution. DTS movie and music software is available
on various DVD and CD titles.

MP3-CD Playback - Download MP3 songs from the
internet on a PC and record them on a CD. This special
"MP3-CD" can now be played on the Philips LX3500D Mini
System. One MP3-CD can carry up to 12 hours of music.

6-speaker package - No less then 5 compact satellite
loudspeakers to build your personal cinema on a stand or
wall-mounted with the enclosed wall-brackets. The five
speakers are acoustically specially designed to match the
tonal characteristics of the receiver. Front left, right and
center speaker are magnetically protected to prevent any
interference with television picture tube purity. The sixth
speaker is a 75 watt powered subwoofer with 6.5" side-firing
woofer.

200W surround power output - The five, 3x25W (left,
right, center) and 2x25W (rear), receiver amplifiers together
with the 75W subwoofer amplifier deliver 200 Watts of
home theater power (6 Ohm, 1 kHz, 10% THD).

75 W powered subwoofer - Subwoofers add dynamism
to normal music and motion pictures. It sets the stage for a
more intense sensation. The 75W Philips subwoofer features
a down-firing 6.5" woofer to reflect sound waves off the
floor, thereby adding impact. In all, the subwoofer is
sufficiently power packed to generate that cinema essential
sonic sound boom.

Video Enhancement

Digital Progressive Scan - Films are shot at a frame rate
of 24 frames per second. When transferred to a DVD,
which uses NTSC system of 60 frames per second, each of
the film's 24 frames must be shown either twice or three
times in an alternating sequence.

To accurately reproduce the film in progressive form, Philips
DVD analyze and detects the 3, 2, 3, 2, 3, 2 sequence
encoded in the DVD and re-interlace (combining the
complementary adjacent frames) them accurately into
progressive image. By using the 3:2 pull down technology,
pictures are noticeably sharper with film based material.
Even on large screens, the progressive scan lines are barely
noticeable and picture flickering is greatly reduced, so you
can extend viewing without eye fatigue.

Convenience

Digital outputs - 2 Digital outputs connections (coax and

optical) are foreseen to enable digital recordings from any of
the sources.

Night mode - Establishes dynamic range compression of
digital sound to reduce the volume differences between the
loud and soft passages in source material with digital
surround sound where sound level differences can be so
dramatic. This feature is especially useful at night when you
don't want to disturb the neighbors or wake up the kids!

Video Connections - 3 outputs (incl. monitor) are
foreseen to hook up video sources.

Easy hook up - With color coded speaker connections for
quick and easy connection of all loudspeakers. By using
distinct colors for each of the speaker connection terminal
on the speaker and on the set, and using the same color for
the cable, the chance of faulty connection (and customer
complaints) are practically zero!

40 tuner presets - The available tuner presets can be
randomly used to store FM and MW stations (40 in total).

Display brightness adjustment - Conveniently adjusts
the brightness of the display in 3 steps.

Standby power <1W - To help save energy consumption,
the standby transformers of this set and the powered
subwoofer have been designed not to consume more than1
watt in standby mode.

DVD & VCD Playback - The DVD drive plays DVD,
DVD+RW and Video CD discs as well as CD, MP3-CD,
CDR and CD-RW discs recorded on a CD recorder. The
system has a full on screen display for easy set-up and
operation. Other video features are zoom, multi-angle and
parental lock.
