Description:
The Philips FWD5 shelf system with integrated DVD player is designed to enhance your home theater experience in one simple package. The amplifier provides 250 watts of output, with 50 watts per channel for clear and powerful sound. Its five-speaker Dolby Digital (AC-3) surround-sound system provides the latest industry standard for home theater sound from DVD movies. With the built-in Dolby Digital (AC-3) surround decoder, it decodes and reproduces the latest five-channel digital surround effects for DVD home theater systems. The front left and right speakers deliver detailed, directional sound as the center channel speaker steers dialogue/vocal sound to where you see the mouth moving--at the TV. Both stereo surround speakers add a greater sense of depth with special effects and time delay, making any living room a home theater. The speakers are magnetically shielded to prevent interference with your color television picture. A dual jog-shuttle control for movie and sound adds a new dimension in fine-tuning control of movie and sound settings to suit your taste. Movie navigation includes scan, A-B, zoom, and return. Sound navigation includes virtual environmental control, personal settings, digital sound control, and dynamic bass boost. In addition, a three-step dynamic bass boost offers the optimal bass level for any kind of music, and the system comes with output signals available for connection to a subwoofer. Adding to the FWD5's capabilities is the three-disc CD changer. Providing more than three hours of continuous music, this changer is CD-R and CD-RW compatible, allows you to change two discs while playing the third, and offers standard programming, repeat, and shuffle playback options. Other great features include a video/auxiliary input for connection of an accessory piece, such as a CD recorder, TV, or external cassette deck, and a digital AM/FM tuner with 40 station presets. A clock, alarm, and sleep timer are included so you can wake up to music from your favorite CD or radio station, as are three display modes showing different amounts of display on the LCD, including a night mode display that turns most of the system's lights off. The FWD5 also incorporates an energy-saving standby mode that consumes just 2 watts of energy on standby (compared with the 10 to 15 watts most systems consume). A variety of input and output types is built-in for greater expandability, including two video outputs, a digital coaxial output, one subwoofer connection, a headphone jack for private listening, and a microphone jack for voice recording. Completing the system is the sleek design of the unit with an oversized multicolor digital display, sleek metallic finishing, and detachable speaker grilles. A 45-button remote control comes with the system and operates the volume, all CD and DVD functions, and all sound-enhancement features. The Philips FWD5 comes with a one-year warranty on parts and labor.
