Description:

Tired of wimpy computer-speaker sound? The Philips AZ2555 is a real-world upgrade for your dorm room or den: a stylish, full-featured portable sound system that doubles as an outlet for your MP3 files--just plug the supplied USB cable into your PC, install the supplied USB PC Link/MusicMatch software, and crank up your tunes. The AZ2555 uses Philips' patented wOOx technology to deliver deep, precise bass without noticeable distortion, and its bass-reflex speakers acoustically enhance upper bass tones to provide extra low-end heft.

The unit offers a composite-video input and output as well as a set of stereo analog RCA inputs for an external device such as a gaming console. Play the sounds of your gaming device over the unit (through the convenient front-panel inputs) to experience total game immersion. Choose from three game sound settings (blast, punch, and speed) to complement the game you're playing.

With the USB PC Link in place, the included full-featured remote control grants convenient access to your PC MP3 files as well as to CD audio, system volume, and tuner controls. The AZ2555 offers portable entertainment using eight D batteries (not supplied) and convenient side handles to assist in the unit's transport.

The CD player offers audio CD-R/CD-RW compatibility, track programming, random play, and repeat play. The AZ2555 includes a digital AM/FM stereo tuner, too, boasting 30-station memory presets and auto tuning. A three-band equalizer (high, mid, bass) lets you tailor the sound for listening to various different types of music or in different environments.
