The system comprises just two boxes - a wall-mountable main unit that plays DVDs and CDs, and an active subwoofer. Built into the main unit is an advanced digital sound processing technology called Ambisound, which features six independent speaker drivers positioned at precise angles that steer sound beams into the room to create genuine 5.1 surround sound.

But the effect isn’t dependent on reflections off walls; instead, Philips says the beams envelop the listener in sound, which means there’s no sweet spot - the effect is the same wherever you’re sitting in the room.
