Description:
The Philips MX980D Home Cinema audio system, with its 550-watt audio receiver, five main speakers, 50-watt powered subwoofer, and complete Dolby Digital 5.1/DTS decoder, provides a total home theater solution in a single package.Philips's patented Tetra Core sound processor, the successor to the Duet Core, decodes Dolby Digital, DTS, and Dolby Pro Logic surround sound. Together with the six-speaker setup, the Philips MX980D creates a genuine cinematic environment, with enough connections to run an advanced system. A total of 12 audio inputs, four video inputs, and a pair of outputs (including five S-Video connectors) allow you to hook up a number of audio/video goodies. The six-channel input selectors in the back of the receiver allow it to connect to any type of multichannel decoder. In addition, the coaxial digital output makes recordings from any DVD disc so you can easily capture live concert footage, soundtrack music, and more. Another unique feature is the Cinema Link system control, which offers a wealth of picture and programming controls (One Touch Cinema, high-resolution OSD, multiple languages and viewing angles) when the Philips is connected to a compatible TV, DVD player, or VCR. The system also offers natural and virtual 3-D surround sound modes. Other highlights include the digital AM/FM tuner with 30 presets and station display; color-coded speaker connections with screw terminals; a front game/audio-video input; and a softer- sounding night mode setting. The entire system can be run by the universal remote control (batteries included). And, the harmonious design coordinates with all other Philips Home Cinema components. Philips provides a one-year warranty on parts and labor.
