Product highlights

USB PC link
USB PC Link lets you playback your MP3 music
through the powerful speakers of Philips sound systems
instead of your PC speakers. By connecting a PC
directly to your audio system with a USB cable, you can
stream MP3 music directly to your sound system,
transforming your PC into a 'massive MP3 music
jukebox'. The control buttons on the sound system and
remote control provide easy navigation and control of
the MP3 music stored in the MusicMatch Playlist. You
can also view song title information as well as elapsed
play time on the sound system's display.

MP3-CD Playback
The MP3-CD format combines the advantages of MP3
digital audio compression with the affordable and
widely accepted CD storage format. The end result is
that a tiny 8cm MP3-CD can hold over 3 hours of
MP3 music, while a normal 12cm disc can hold over
10 hours. Using readily available software, you can rip
music from your audio CDs or download MP3 music
legally from the internet and burn it to a recordable or
rewritable 12cm or 8cm CD. The resulting MP3-CD
can be played back as though it were a normal audio
CD.

Gameport
Gameport is an easy connection solution that links
your game console directly to your audio system for
enhanced gaming sound quality. Game Sound Mode
offers 3 exciting sound settings - Speed mode gets the
adrenaline going in high-speed driving and flying games
while Punch mode adds power to the punch in hand-
to-hand combat games. Finally Blast mode lets you
experience the full explosive effects of battle games.
A Game Mix function, MIX-IT, available on Mini Hi-Fi
Systems, allows game sounds to be mixed with a
favorite CD track, radio station or external audio
player.

MAX Sound
MAX Sound technology produces an instant boost in
bass, maximizes volume performance, and instantly
creates the most impressive listening experience with
just a touch of the MAX Sound button. The MAX
Sound electronic circuitry calibrates the existing sound
and volume setting, and instantly boosts bass and
volume to a maximum level without distortion. Both
sound spectrum and volume get noticeably amplified,
creating a potent audio boost that will add mileage to
any music. MAX Sound lets you get the most from
your audio system without having to alter complicated
equalizer settings.

Vertical Positioning
Vertical Positioning saves space and enhances the
aesthetics of your set by giving you the choice of
positioning your CD Soundmachine in either the
conventional horizontal position or in the attractive,
space-saving vertical position. Innovative technology
and design ensure that the system works just as well in
a vertical orientation as in a horizontal one. In
addition, a specially designed CD Soundmachine stand
holds the set firmly in place so you can enjoy high
quality performance in a vertical position.
