Digital Stereo Hookups

You can connect the TV/VCR/DVD to a Stereo that has a Digital Coaxial In jack. Use this hookup if you want to hear the TV/VCR/DVD sound through the Stereo instead. Use these connections for a Dolby Digital-compatible Stereo or for a Receiver that has a Mini-Disc or Digital Audio Tape deck.

1 Connect the antenna/Cable TV signal. Details are on pages eight-nine.

2 Connect a digital audio coaxial cable (not supplied) to the orange COAXIAL jack on the TV/VCR/DVD.

Also connect the cable to the Stereo’s COAXIAL DIGITAL AUDIO IN jack.

3 If the Stereo is Dolby Digital-com- patible, set DOLBY DIGITAL to ON. If the Stereo is not Dolby Digital- compatible or if you connected to a Mini-Disc or Digital Audio Tape Deck, set DOLBY DIGITAL to OFF. Details are on page 72.

An incorrect setting causes noise distor- tion and damages speakers.

To see if your Stereo has Dolby Digital, look for a Dolby Digital logo on your Stereo. Or, refer to the Stereo owner’s manual.

Helpful Hints

•You cannot use a Mini-Disc or Digital Audio Tape deck to copy 5.1 channel Dolby Digital sur- round sound Discs.

•Discs recorded in Dolby Digital should show this on the Disc or case. If the Disc is not recorded in 5.1 channel Dolby Digital sur- round sound, you will not hear multi-channel sound even if you use the Digital Stereo hookup.

27DVCR55S specifications

The Philips 27DVCR55S is a versatile television designed for those who appreciate both the convenience of modern technology and the nostalgia of classic home entertainment. This model features a 27-inch screen, making it a suitable size for various room environments, whether it’s a cozy bedroom, a rustic den, or even a stylish living room.

This integration bridges the gap between traditional and contemporary viewing habits, catering to those who still cherish old movies and cassette collections. The VCR is designed with ease of use in mind, ensuring simple playback and recording functionality, which can often be a cumbersome process with separate devices.

In terms of display technology, the Philips 27DVCR55S employs a high-quality CRT (Cathode Ray Tube) screen.

The viewing angle is commendably wide, ensuring that everyone in the room can enjoy their favorite programs without missing any details.

The television also incorporates a diverse range of connectivity options. It features multiple AV inputs, allowing users to connect DVD players, gaming consoles, and other devices without hassle. The addition of coaxial and composite inputs ensures compatibility with a myriad of devices that consumers might still be using.

Sound quality is another noteworthy aspect of the Philips 27DVCR55S. The integrated speaker system is designed to deliver clear audio, complementing the visual experience nicely. While it may not compete with modern surround sound systems, it offers sufficient performance for casual viewing.

Moreover, the Philips brand is well-known for its commitment to reliable performance and durability. The 27DVCR55S exemplifies this through its robust build quality, ensuring that it can withstand years of use.

In conclusion, the Philips 27DVCR55S is an appealing choice for those looking to enjoy both classic tapes and traditional television viewing. With its integrated VCR, quality CRT display, ample connectivity options, and solid sound system, it offers a nostalgic yet functional home entertainment solution that stands the test of time.
