Philips HDMI 1080p Home DVD Theatre Cinema System (HTS4600)

With the increase in picture quality, you will begin to spot things in your favourite movie you hadn’t noticed before. There’s a front USB port to allow you to plug in a USB storage device e.g. flash drive key ring. This allows you to run a JPEG photo slideshow for the family, or play your friend that hot new MP3 track you’ve just downloaded.

Philips keeps things simple around the back with a modest selection of sockets. There's an HDMI output, capable of zapping upscaled 1080p, 1080i or 720p signals to your TV, plus component and composite video outputs. There's also a coaxial digital input that lets you listen to external audio sources through the system.

Format support includes DivX Ultra, MP3, WMA and JPEG, plus the surprising but welcome bonus of WMV playback. If you want to play any of these formats on the system, simply copy them to a USB memory stick or burn them to CD or DVD. The Philips HTS4600 System accepts most kinds of recordable DVDs and CDs.

Accessories included with the Philips HTS4600 Cinema System are Quick start guide, User Manual, Remote Control, FM antenna, Power lead, World Wide Warranty leaflet, 2 x AAA Batteries, Interconnect cable, and RCA to SCART cable.

Philips HTS4600 DVD Home Cinema System Product Highlights

Dolby Virtual Speaker
Dolby Virtual Speaker is a sophisticated audio virtualisation technology that produces rich and immersive surround sound from a two-speaker system. Highly advanced spatial algorithms faithfully replicate the sonic characteristics that occur in an ideal 5.1-channel environment. DVD playback is enhanced by expanding the 2-channel environment. When combined with Dolby Pro Logic II processing, any high-quality stereo source is transformed into true-to-life, multi-channel surround sound. No need to purchase extra speakers, wires or speaker stands to appreciate room-filling sound.

Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Link
The Universal Serial Bus or USB is a protocol standard that is conveniently used to link PCs, peripherals and consumer electronic equipment. Hi-Speed USB devices have a data transfer rate of up to 480 Mbps - up from the 12 Mbps in original USB ones. With Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Link, all you have to do is plug in your USB device, select the movie, music or photo and play away.

True high-definition HDMI 1080p
HDMI 1080p upscaling delivers images that are crystal clear. Movies in standard definition can now be enjoyed in true high definition resolution - ensuring more details and more true-to-life pictures. Progressive Scan (represented by "p" in "1080p") eliminates the line structure prevalent on TV screens, again ensuring relentlessly sharp images. To top it off, HDMI makes a direct digital connection that can carry uncompressed digital High Definition video as well as digital multi-channel audio, without conversions to analogue - delivering perfect picture and sound quality, completely free from noise.

DivX Ultra Certified
DivX Ultra combines DivX playback with great features like integrated subtitles, multiple audio languages, multiple tracks and menus into one convenient file format.

EasyLink
EasyLink lets you control multiple devices with one remote. It uses HDMI CEC industry-standard protocol to share functionality between devices through the HDMI cable. With one touch of a button, you can operate all your connected HDMI CEC-enabled equipment simultaneously. Functions like standby and play can now be carried out with absolute ease.

MP3 Link
MP3 Link allows playback of MP3 files directly from your portable media player on your home theatre system. Simply connect your portable MP3 player to the built-in MP3 Link jack and enjoy your MP3 music in the superior sound quality delivered by the Philips home theatre system. MP3 Link brings your portable music into the comfort of your living room.
