Philips DVD Home Theater System

January 7th, 2009

Do you have a great theater system in your home? With more people staying in for their entertainment experiences, their home sound system can enhance the experience that usually can’t match a trip to the theater.

Right now the Philips DVD Home Theater System is on sale at Woot!
“Philips HTS6600 uses “psychoacoustic” engineering and precise driver positioning to replicate 5.1 surround sound. And the sharper picture, according to them, is merely a result of the player’s DVD upconverting capabilities.

Features:

* Ambisound technology produces truly embracing multi-channel surround sound from fewer speakers. It delivers an immersive 5.1 sound experience without the constraints of sitting position, room shape or size, and without the clutter of multiple speakers and cables. Through the combined effect of psychoacoustic phenomena, array processing and precisely angled driver positioning, Ambisound delivers more sound from fewer speakers
* 1080i HDMI, 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)
* Connect your iPod. This unique connection allows you to hook up the Philips dock to the home theater system for media playback from your iPod. With Extended User Interface, you can also enjoy the convenience of direct access and viewing of your iPod content on your TV screen
* USB Direct. 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
* Smart Surround, Enjoy the best possible listening experience without having to make surround setting changes every time you change a disc or switch between movies and music. Unlike normal 5.1 systems that feature default multi-channel surround settings, Smart Surround automatically changes the surround settings to suit your music encoded in stereo or your movie with multi-channel content
* DoubleBASS, DoubleBASS ensures you hear even the deepest bass tones from compact-sized subwoofers. It captures low frequencies and recreates them in the audible range of the subwoofer – delivering sound with more boom and panache, and ensuring you a full, uncompromised listening experience
