Bass Reflex Speaker System

Bass Reflex Speaker System delivers a deep bass
experience from a compact loudspeaker box system. It
differs from a conventional loudspeaker box system in
the addition of a bass pipe that is acoustically aligned
to the woofer to optimize the low frequency roll-off of
the system. The result is deeper controlled bass and
lower distortion. The system works by resonating the
air mass in the bass pipe to vibrate like a conventional
woofer. Combined with the response of the woofer, the
system extends the overall low frequency sounds to
create a whole new dimension of deep bass.

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.

Digital Sound Control

Digital Sound Control lets you select from pre-set
modes that control the frequency bands of sound to
optimize certain musical styles. You can chose between
different sound settings - Optimal, Jazz, Rock,Techno,
Pop or Classic. Each mode uses graphic equalizing
technology to automatically adjust the sound balance
and enhance the most important sound frequencies in
your chosen music style. Digital Sound Control lets you
get the most out of your music by adjusting the sound
balance to match the music type you are playing.

Dynamic Bass Boost

Dynamic Bass Boost maximizes your music enjoyment
by emphasizing the bass content of the music
throughout the range of volume settings - from low to
high – at the touch of a button! Bottom-end bass
frequencies usually get lost when the volume is set at a
low level. To counteract this, Dynamic Bass Boost can
be switched on to boost bass levels, so you can enjoy
consistent sound even when you turn down the volume.
