Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Enjoy your videos the right way simply by rotating your iPod from portrait to landscape position on the Philips Docking entertainment system DC910. Dual wOOx loudspeakers impart deep, powerful bass to all your music – from iPod, USB devices and SD/MMC cards. The stylish system comes with a table stand and can be wall-mounted.

Place your iPod touch in portrait or landscape orientation
The accelerometer in your iPod touch automatically changes the way the content is displayed. If you rotate your iPod touch from portrait to landscape or vice versa, the contents of the display will be switched. This integrated dock for iPod on the Philips system is specially designed to suit this feature - you can change the display orientation of the dock so you can conveniently view a webpage, photo or video clip in its proper aspect ratio on the screen of your iPod touch.

Play and charge your iPod
Enjoy your favorite MP3 music while charging your iPod! The dock lets you connect your iPod directly to the Docking entertainment system so you can listen to your favorite music in superb sound. It also charges your iPod while it plays so you can enjoy your music and not have to worry about your iPod battery running out. Use the remote control to navigate, select and playback the music stored on your iPod. The Docking entertainment system automatically charges your iPod while it is docked.

USB Direct and SD/MMC card slots for MP3/WMA music playback
Thanks to the complete file transferability, you can easily enjoy the convenience and fun of accessing more digital music via the built-in USB Direct and SD/MMC card slots. Simply plug your device into the USB port, or insert your memory card in the SD/MMC card slot on your Philips music system, your digital music and photos will be played directly from the device. Now you can share your favorite moments with family and friends!

FM digital tuning with presets
Digital FM radio offers you additional music options to your music collection on your Philips audio system. Simply tune into the station that you want to preset, press and hold the preset button to memorize the frequency. With preset radio stations that can be stored, you can quickly access your favorite radio station without having to manually tune the frequencies each time.

Dual wOOx loudspeakers for enhanced bass experience
wOOx technology creates a superior bass sound by capturing and enhancing low frequency bass for a dramatically enhanced bass and sound experience.

Stylish slim design with table-stand and wall-mount options
The perfect combination of a slim and versatile design, your Philips audio system is cleverly designed to blend into your living space. The base of the audio system is a stand so the system can sit securely and nicely on any shelf or cabinet. When wall mounted you have all the same flexibility of the freestanding stand.

All-in-one remote control for the system and your iPod
With the Philips all-in-one remote control, you can now navigate both your Philips music system and your iPod through hundreds of songs easily with the one simple press of the remote control. Displaying information listed according to playlist, album, artist, genre or track, the navigation offers speedy yet simple through hundreds of files. It allows one handed operation and guarantees a unique user experience.

• Avoid extensive use of the set in a volume higher than 85 decibel because this may damage your hearing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect, June 28, 2008

By	B. Findley - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I am so happy with this system. It is the perfect size, easy to transport, sleek, and has an incredible sound. The small stature is deceiving; it's hard to believe it's capable of producing such a rich sound. The rotating dock and compatability with other media are added bonuses. Well worth the money spent.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice feature set, October 15, 2008

By	L. Nguyen "LYNHPHOTO" (Bayarea) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is on the expensive side of the likes but it has the features that I wanted. Wife's music can be played from the USB thumb while baby's music can be played from the SD card. There are other inputs, Radio and ... iPod as well. The design is slick for wall mount and I think it is overall a fine product from Phillips. I, however, give 4 stars because of these:
1. The wake-up volume can not be lower (always at 12). You have to de-gain your mp3 music instead thanks to the mp3gain software
2. I will be very happy if I have a choice on the color (white instead)

3.0 out of 5 stars Barebones audio with some interesting features, December 27, 2008

By	moose_of_many_waters (Palo Alto, CA United States) - See all my reviews

The quality of the audio is considerably below higher end iPod Docks, but it's passable for a dorm room kind of setting. The sound is very compressed and does a decent job in the vocal frequencies and not a heck of a whole lot else. That said, the sound is better than you get with your typical Sony/iHome alarm clock iPod docks and it isn't a whole lot bigger. It also can be louder than those docks.

The ability to load in a SD card or Flash card for music is a nice feature that makes this audio system quite versatile. The remote is easy to use and fairly intuitive. Yes, you can rotate your iPod and watch TV shows and movies, but honestly, who wants to watch TV on such a tiny screen unless you're on a plane (in which case, you'd be using earphones).

The build on this unit is not particularly impressive and I'm guessing that it won't last more than three years. Then again, I won't have my iPod touch at that time either and will have moved onto something new.

If you can get this thing for less than 100 bucks, it's worth it. More than that, and you probably can do better with another dock.
