Philips 2021 TV Range Features Personalised Sound EQ

Coinciding with World Hearing Day, TP Vision has confirmed that Philips TV will become the first major TV brand to include Mimi Sound Personalization on its TV sets.
Mimi Sound Personalization will feature on most of the Philips 2021 European Android TV range and enables you to personalise your set's sound performance to your hearing profile by taking a short hearing test-on an iOS or Android device to create a Hearing ID profile that can then be easily synced to the television via a QR code.
The result is a personalised and optimised sound performance that creates a more enjoyable television experience. Mimi is based on three patented core technologies with over 75 patent applications. Together, Mimi's unique technology and processing algorithm profiles more than 100 parameters to accurately assess, customise and optimise the delivered audio to your hearing ability.
Your hearing ability is evaluated primarily in two areas: the lowest intensity sound that you can detect and your ability to process 'masked' sounds, i.e. the quietest sound you can perceive in the presence of masking sounds such as noise.
The inclusion of the Mimi functionality on a large number of products throughout the Philips TV range, from the Philips Performance Series all the way up to the higher-end OLED ranges, will ensure that Mimi technology is accessible to a wide base of consumers at a range of budgets.
Martijn Smelt, TP Vision's CMO Europe, told StereoNET:
We have always considered the user's overall experience to be an essential part of any Philips TV's offering and just as important as outright picture and sound quality. The inclusion of the Mimi functionality is proof that TV viewing can be further improved and personalised touser's it a more immersive and enjoyable experience.
Mimi Sound Processing will be available on all models in the following 2021 Philips TV series: 85x6/ 9006/ 9206/ 9506/ OLED706/ OLED8x6.

applause awards
Each time StereoNET reviews a product, it is considered for an Applause Award. Winning one marks it out as a design of great quality and distinction – a special product in its class, on the grounds of either performance, value for money, or usually both.
Applause Awards are personally issued by StereoNET’s global Editor-in-Chief, David Price – who has over three decades of experience reviewing hi-fi products at the highest level – after consulting with our senior editorial team. They are not automatically given with all reviews, nor can manufacturers purchase them.
The StereoNET editorial team includes some of the world’s most experienced and respected hi-fi journalists with a vast wealth of knowledge. Some have edited popular English language hi-fi magazines, and others have been senior contributors to famous audio journals stretching back to the late 1970s. And we also employ professional IT and home theatre specialists who work at the cutting edge of today’s technology.
We believe that no other online hi-fi and home cinema resource offers such expert knowledge, so when StereoNET gives an Applause Award, it is a trustworthy hallmark of quality. Receiving such an award is the prerequisite to becoming eligible for our annual Product of the Year awards, awarded only to the finest designs in their respective categories. Buyers of hi-fi, home cinema, and headphones can be sure that a StereoNET Applause Award winner is worthy of your most serious attention.
