Great Sound
Room-Filling Sound
The DCM278/37 features 10 watts of total output power, pumping 5 watts each into two 4-inch woofers. It's a bass reflex (ported) system, which enables it to pump out a lot more low-end than you might expect in a system its size.
Dynamic Bass Boost
When you want a little extra low-end, use Dynamic Bass Boost. Similar to a "loudness" feature, it lets you get deep and dramatic sound, even at low listening levels.
Digital Sound Control
Dial it in a bit more with Philips' "Digital Sound Control" EQ processing, which offers preset EQ curves for various styles: Jazz, Rock, Pop, and Classic Rock.
Solid Design
Wall-Mountable
The slim and versatile DCM278/37 will blend right into your living space. It can sit securely on any shelf or cabinet, or you can wall mount the device.
Motorized Sliding Door
A motorized sliding front door is another slick addition. The door housing the disc slides up and down at the touch of a button, and offers the visual bonus of seeing the disc spin through the transparent window.
What's in the Box

Customer Reviews

When I got this piece, there were no reviews at all, but still I wanted to buy it for its stylish looks. Frankly speaking, I didn't have much expectations on this prodcut interms of the sound quality, since its just 5W, but I was really surprised to see the sound it generates! Awesome sound quality - Too good for your bedroom. Obviously, you cannot compare it with a hometheatre system but for a iPod/iPhone dock, its way at the top. The FM radio, CD, AUX and USB ports are a big advantage and I was very pleased that it supports iPhone 3G and 3GS as well. I totally liked it and would definitely recommend it to anyone.

I really liked the look of the unit and the functions that it offerred, and after seeing only 5-star reviews, I decided to purchase it. I wanted a good CD player, usb drive player, radio and it to function as an alarm clock. It provides an alarm, slowly increasing the volume of whatever you decide to wake up to, but no snooze. However, it does not provide a clock for very long. 15 mins after turning the unit to normal standby mode, the unit will enter Eco standby mode saving 1 watt, and the clock will no longer display. Therefore, I cannot see what time it is when looking at the unit. Also, when the clock is on (for the 15 mins), you have to look at the display straight on to actually read the display. I don't understand why Philips designed it this way. I may now return it because one of the basic features that I desired (a clock) is not up to my standards.
Otherwise the unit provides decent sound, pulls in FM stations pretty well, and has a lot of features. The remote works well, but the layout could be a little better.
