PHILIPS DSS930 (1993) - Digital Speaker System

 

Digital Speaker System

Brand: PHILIPS
Model: DSS930
Year: 1993

Philips has been known as a pioneer of active loudspeakers since the early 70s with their MFB model range. The DSS930 takes the active loudspeaker concept a step further...into the Digital age. This is a 2-way 3-speaker system with built-in bi-amplifier and four built-in DAC converters for the woofer and tweeter. They will only accept as input signal Digital sources via Digital input. While they can be operated directly, with a dedicated remote controller, from a Digital source such as CD player, DCC or Laserdisc it is best to be used with the matching DSC950 system controller. This will accept both analog and digital sources but it will transmit the signal to the loudspeakers in digital form. The system is using a chain connection method meaning that you will connect the controller to one loudspeaker and then the signal goes further from this speaker to the next. This way you can build a multiroom system with up to 6 pair of speakers. Each loudspeaker has a set of switches at the back to select their operation mode, Left or Right channel and Room A, B or C.
