Dolby Headphone

A brief introduction

Dolby Digital and DTS provide discrete left and right surround channels, for more precise localization of sound and a more convincing, realistic ambience. Discrete means that each channel contains its own particular audio information and plays a unique role in creating a realistic surround sound experience.

Up until now all this was reserved to speaker set-ups, but thanks to

Dolby Headphone, the ultimate experience in home theatre surround with five (left, right, centre, rear-left and rear-right) discrete channels of digital sound quality is now also available to headphones.

Dolby Headphone is a revolutionary signal processing system that works not only with multi channel audio but also with conventional stereo signals. In case of multi channel audio signals, Dolby Headphone technology will process these signals in such a way that you will experience the sound through your headphone as if it were coming from an actual five speaker home entertainment set-up. And even when listening to conventional stereo signals, Dolby Headphone will give you a much more natural and less fatiguing listening experience, equivalent to a good two-speaker playback system in a room with good acoustics.

Dolby Headphone technology can model the sound of a playback system in up to three different listening environments, based on acoustic measurements of real rooms:

•DH1 is a small, well-damped room appropriate for both movies and music-only recordings.

•DH2 is a more acoustically live room particularly suited to music listening, but also great for movies.

•DH3 is a larger room, more like a concert hall or movie theatre.

You can easily switch between these room modes and select whichever one suits the particular program material and your own preferences.

HP1500 specifications

The Philips HP1500 is a cutting-edge hairdryer that epitomizes the marriage of technology and user-friendly design. With its sleek aesthetics and high-performance capabilities, this hairdryer is aimed at those seeking an efficient yet gentle way to style their hair. One of its standout features is the powerful motor, which delivers high airflow for faster drying times without compromising on hair health.

The HP1500 utilizes advanced ionic technology which significantly reduces static electricity, allowing for a smoother and shinier finish. This is particularly advantageous for individuals with frizzy or unruly hair, as the negative ions generated during the drying process help to seal the hair cuticle. As a result, users can achieve salon-quality results at home.

Another important characteristic of the HP1500 is its adjustable heat and speed settings. The device typically features multiple heat settings, which allow users to customize the drying experience based on their hair type and styling needs. Whether you're drying thick curls or fine straight hair, the flexibility provided by these settings ensures optimal results while minimizing heat damage.

Additionally, the HP1500 is designed with user comfort in mind. With an ergonomic handle and lightweight construction, it becomes easy to maneuver during styling sessions. This is particularly beneficial for those who engage in longer styling routines, as it reduces arm fatigue.

The hairdryer also includes a concentrator nozzle, which focuses airflow for precise styling. This feature is particularly useful for creating sleek, straight looks or defined curls. Furthermore, the cord length is often sufficient to facilitate easy movement during use, enhancing the overall user experience.

Durability is another characteristic that consumers can expect from the Philips HP1500. Built with high-quality materials, this hairdryer is designed to withstand regular use while maintaining its performance over time.

In summary, the Philips HP1500 combines powerful performance, advanced technology, and user-friendly design into a single hairdryer. Its key features include ionic technology for frizz control, adjustable heat and speed settings for customization, an ergonomic design for comfort, and a concentrator nozzle for styling precision. With its reliable performance and thoughtful construction, the HP1500 stands out as an essential tool for anyone serious about hair care and styling.
