Description:

The Philips FW-C85 mini hi-fi system features a three-CD changer and full CD-RW compatibility. The CD player has a 40-track programmable memory, as well as repeat and random functions. The pair of auto-reverse cassette decks offer high-speed dubbing and one-touch recording simplicity. The Philips FW-C85 also has a digital AM/FM tuner with 40 presets.

Philips has included a number of audiophile-grade highlights to boot, including their patented wOOx technology, which ensures superior bass results with minimal distortion. The wOOx is progressively driven at three different optimization levels to achieve maximum impact. The three-way bass reflex speaker system features 6.5-inch woofers, and a pair of tweeters (one ferro-cooled and one polydome) for smooth low end and exceptionally clear, consistent high tones.

The system also incorporates six digital sound controls (classic, rock, vocal, techno, optimal, and jazz); six virtual environment settings (hall, disco, concert, cinema, club, and arcade); as well as six customized personal settings. Once you set it up, you can hit "demo mode" for a complete tour of the sonic options the Philips FW- C85 provides.

Included in the package are a multifunction remote control (with batteries), an auxiliary input, a programmable sleep timer, and bass/treble controls. The fluorescent display is easy to read, and it sports three dim modes, including a night mode.

Philips provides a one-year warranty on parts and labor.
