Highlights
Class 'D' Amplifier
Class ‘D’ Digital Amplifier takes an analog signal,
converts it into a digital signal and then amplifies the
signal digitally. The signal then enters a demodulation
filter to give the final output. The amplified digital
output delivers all the advantages of digital audio,
including improved sound quality. In addition, Class
‘D’ Digital Amplifier has greater than 90% efficiency
compared to traditional AB amplifiers. This high
efficiency translates into a powerful amplifier with a
small footprint.
Neodymium Ribbon Tweeter
The Neodymium Ribbon Tweeter is a monopole
tweeter that produces dynamic and crisp sound from
the front. It is a feature commonly used in high-end
audio systems to reproduce sound with excellent
fidelity. Conventional cones and dome tweeters are
based on a directional moving coil principle whereas
the monopole Neodymium Ribbon Tweeter radiates
high frequencies in a full 180-degree radiation
pattern. This dramatically increases the width of the
sound spectrum in the higher tones and expands the
sweet spot zone to deliver wide, crystal-clear, and
natural sound even from compact audio systems.

2500W PMPO / 150W RMS
This system has 2500W PMPO / 150W RMS total
output power. RMS refers to Root Mean Square
which is a typical measurement of audio power, or
rather, the electrical power transferred from an
audio amplifier to a loudspeaker, which is measured
in watts. The amount of electrical power delivered
to the loudspeaker and its sensitivity determines the
sound power that is generated. The higher the
wattage, the better the sound power emitted by the
speaker.
10 hours of MP3-CD music
MP3 stands for "MPEG 1 Audio layer-3".MP3 is a
revolutionary compression technology by which
large digital music files can be made up to 10 times
smaller without radically degrading their audio
quality. MP3 has become the standard audio
compression format used on the world wide web,
allowing quick and easy audio file transfer.
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.
Treble and Bass Control
Treble and bass are equalizer features that control
the high and low frequency sound levels of your
audio respectively. Treble specifically regulates the
amplification of the high tones in the music while
bass controls the amplification level of the low tones.
Using the up and down keys, the listener can
conveniently place more or less emphasis on the low
and high tones, or leave treble and bass flat to
playback music according to its original recorded
setting. Treble and Bass Control lets you listen to
your music the way you like it.
