From the Manufacturer
This state-of-the-art digital home entertainment system delivers powerful surround sounds and a theater-like audio/video experience. The ultimate in both style and performance, it includes a docking station for your separately sold GoGear or iPod player so you can fill the room with music while your player recharges.
USB Direct Plays Photos and Music From USB Flash Drives
Simply plug your device into the USB port on your Philips DVD system. Your digital music and photos will be played directly from the device. Now you can share your favorite moments with family and friends.
Music Playback From Portable Media Players
MP3 Line-in allows direct playback of MP3 content via the home theatre system by simply plugging your portable MP3 player into the built-in headphone jack. Now you can enjoy the superb sound quality of the Philips Home Theatre System while playing your favorite music from your portable music player.
1080i HDMI With High Definition Video Upconversion
HDMI stands for High Definition Multimedia Interface. It is a direct digital connection that can carry digital HD video as well as digital multichannel audio. By eliminating the conversion to analog signals it delivers perfect picture and sound quality, completely free from noise. HDMI is fully backward-compatible with DVI (Digital Video Interface).
DTS, Dolby Digital and Pro Logic II Surround Sound
A built-in DTS and Dolby Digital decoder eliminates the need for an external decoder by processing all six channels of audio information to provide a surround sound experience and an astoundingly natural sense of ambience and dynamic realism. Dolby Pro Logic II provides five channels of surround processing from any stereo source.
12-bit, 108MHz Video Processing For Sharp, Natural Images
12-bit Video DAC is a superior digital-to-analog converter that preserves every detail of the digital signal. It shows subtle shades and smoother graduation of colors, resulting in a more vibrant and natural picture. The limitation of the usual 10-bit DAC becomes particularly apparent while using large screens and projectors.
Plays DivX, MP3, WMA and JPEG Digital Camera Photos
Multi-format playability allows you to play most file formats for maximum listening and viewing pleasure, including MP3, WMA, JPEG and the popular DivX digital media format. DivX playback enables you to play and share compressed high quality DivX video content beyond your computer.
DivX Ultra For Enhanced Playback of DivX Media Files
DivX Ultra combines DivX playback with great features like integrated subtitles, multiple audio languages, multiple tracks and menus into one convenient file format. It plays files encoded on CD, (S)VCD, DVD, DVD+R/RW, DVD-R/RW, and DVD+R.

Customer Reviews
philips home theater system
overall this item I am very pleased with the product. My only issue is the package didn't come with an owners manual. I am sure this was just a simple mistake. It makes it tough because I am learning everything through trial and error. The manual would have made things easier. As for sound itself, it is really nice, clear and full.
thank you

Great system for your house......
This system is great especially for the price, you won't find anything better, I've compared this system to a couple of other brands such as Sony, and Samsung, and this system holds it's own, easy connections and great sound, clear dvd playback and a bonus is the ipod dock, the remote controls your ipod.......
Great product!
This is my first home theater system and I did a little bit of research on them before I made my purchase. I think this is an excellent system for the money. My small living room sounds like a movie theatre.
