Ti Philips NX5 ket maysa a nalatak a tore ti nagkombinar a driver. Naipatakderda iti nalaka a kahoy a lawas nga adda plastik a rupa. Idiay ngato ken baba a paset adda dua a full range a speaker a kadakkelanna, bayat a idiay tengnga adda dua pay a driver a mangipangato kadagiti nalawlaw a nota.

Uray no dagiti agsasao ket kasla matamis a panagkita iti daytoy a dakkel a pagay-ayam, maikadua laeng ti ragsak gapu ta ti maikadua a paset ket adda idiay ngato a mabalin a pagpilian ti nagduduma a setting ken preset a magun-od para iti musika.

Kalidad ti Dandaniw

Philips-NX5-8

Ti kalidad ti tunog, a kas panag-uray tayo a mangpataas ti volume, ket agtultuloy a napigsa. Ti mga speaker ket agpaay ti 500W a puersa a marikna iti bagim a nagtaengka iti uneg dagiti driverna, nangnangruna no agpatugtog ka ti musika nga adda napigsa a bass. Tapno agpada iti dayta, ti musika ket saan laeng a napigsa ngem nasaysayaat met ti panagbalin. Ti bass ket napateg ngem saan a mangabak; adda met dagiti nalawag a mids ken detalye a highs – amin a mangipaay iti napnek a panagdingdingeg ti musika.

Dagiti Tampok

One of the commendable things with the NX5 is its entertainment factor. As mentioned earlier, the two largest speakers light up and when they’re partnered with music, they produce a great light show that’s perfect for every party. The light patterns don’t go with the music, unfortunately, but their behaviour can be changed with a number of presets.

Philips-NX5-7

On top of the lighting speakers, users also have the DJ Effects button that lets you put in effects  (scratch, reverb, etc) on top of your music by turning the round, disc-like knob below the button. Do take note that we said it puts effects on top of you music as it does exactly just that. Like for its scratch effect, it doesn’t actually rewind the track backwards but rather overlay a scratching sound onto the music.

Below is a list of features of the NX5. Refer to the timestamps to see what it does on the video below.

Equalizer - 01:26
DJ Effects - 02:13
Crossfader - 02:03
NX Bass Boost - 01:49
Sound modes - 00:47

Conclusion

The Philips NX5 is perfect for small to medium get-togethers and the likes. Its mesmerizing light show partnered with the ability to play with your music will surely make your house parties a hit. Basically, it’s one entertaining tower of speakers. Sound quality is great – bass is powerful while mids and highs are crisp and soulful, but don’t mistake this as a DJ’s equipment since this is far from what a professional one would use for gigs.

Hi I have a NX5 and love it but I am having trouble with it. When I turn it on all it wants to do is flicker a bit and nothing comes out. The lights are unstable. The remote is the only way I can control the unit. Any ideas on what is going on????
