@multimedium_channel_en: I generally enjoyed the video. I worked for North American Philips for a time in the 80's, medical division. Would have liked to have seen more on that aspect of the company rather than the mix of currant promotional data that was interspersed between the older earlier lightbulb section. But, good work in general!
I worked at Philips in the 1990's until the early 2000's. When they introduced their motto "Let's Make Things Better" the sarcastic version was "Let's Make Better Things."
I have Philips CD/cassette/radio combos mc10 and mc118...made 1978 to 1982 and a mc235 they are still working.. and two FM radio/iPad docking station from the 1980s...all made in Holland..... statement Designed and Developed by Royal Philips BV Holland is on the back of the set 😊.. still my go to stereos.....
My first turntable was a Philips 202, I bought it in 1975, as I saw something very similar on a television report from the 1972 Munich Olympics. It worked well.
Video opens with a picture of Philips hifi equipment, but that rich part of its history is not covered in the video. MFB (Motional Feedback) loudspeakers for instance.
i also grew up with my grandmother listening to a big philips radio without Fm bought in late 40´s if memory doesn´t fail me but the style was very ahead in design , wood of diferent kinds and aluminium , this i can´t lif it alone , it is a very well known style but now it vanished from my mind , art-deco it shined a light on my brain, neighboors in the 60´s and early 70´s used to dress well and visit my grandparents as we were the only to have TV a shaub-Lorenz with very expensive today finishings and was the biggest screen at the time as the same used to happen in the 40´s with the radio , we were a very undeveloped country , and much more in the interior
I haven't watched the video yet, but the reason I clicked on it is that I've always had a soft spot for Philips products. One of the last Philips products I bought was a pair of SHL9705A headphones. Unfortunately, I discovered that I can't buy replacement earpads from the company. They aren't replaceable from some generic design, either. But the sound from these headphones is impressive, especially considering the price point. But recently, I bought a Philips Blu-ray player and had to return it to Walmart. The quality was horrendous, which was a shock to me, as everything I've bought under the Philips brand was amazingly good. Clearly, Philips is struggling as a brand name, and the glory days are over with. Sad to see it go this way.
Philips came out with their first CD player, the CD-100 with its 14 bit DAC. They were going to get their 14 bit system, darn it!! LOL. Maybe they had a bunch if 14 bit DACs they wanted to use up. 😂🤣
The Compact Disc and the Compact Disc Player was invented in 1983 by both Philips of Netherlands and Sony of Japan combination working together. That is the history.
After over 50 years in consumer electronics i have fond memories of a time when Philips were a leading brand but whilst they were great innovators they were not so good at getting fully working products onto the market that were well made and reliable. It took the Japanese brands to perfect many products and hence confidence in Philips products went into decline. Hence it should be no surprise that the products we can but today are far removed from the ones that Philips made in Holland and other countries.
When i was a Teenager i once owned 2 of the first CD Players. A Philips CD100 and a Marantz CD73 when they were worth next to nothing. Today they are worth a fortune. I hated there was no FAST FF/RWD.
Unfortunately, I miss the cinema department from the 1930s to 1972 worldwide, culminating in the awarding of a technical Oscar for Jan Jacob Kotte's design for the Philips DP70 35/70mm projector. In Amercia it was released under the name Norelco.
I had one of these CD100 Players.... Sometimes the CDs came with more that 15 songs, and the only way to get to them is to please through the CD until you got to track 16, etc... I sold it like 20 years later at a garage sale, and it was still working like new... Philips was one of the best product manufacturers, but not any more, since they sold out to the Chinese.. Sony is still good...
And you won't regret it? Your grandchildren would have something to listen to records on, but they will only look at old photos on the Internet. No one will sell CD 100 from the secondary market.
I didn’t like that at the beginning of the video that you were “switching” between clips of modern Phillips electronics and the older historical pictures of their company founding and their antique light bulbs ~ just have the historical pictures at the beginning and it would be more of a transition, that 1 piece of looped-over jazz music for the background ~ 😠, and as one of the first comments thought that your video was done by a “AI” bot, because you used a synthesised voice-over 🙄 ~ we would prefer to hear your actual voice to make that the video was done by a fellow human, I assume your language isn’t English? so you typed to a bot to address the English viewers. For my experience with “PHILIPS” I got a Philips mc-120 micro system - HIFI, CD/cassette/radio/aux-in, from my brother when he lost interest with it and a vintage Philips mains-shaver from my great-grand parents
i always like philips for everything they sold ,but hi-fi was at a higher level and some not that powerfull amplifiers but enough to fill a living-room were sounding very good this the F series from 79 with technics speakers the SB-F3 one of the best speakers ever made but only in 1979 ,after it might seem equal but far from it, even in 1980 or 81 i bnought a incredible nice designed stereo tv with a v-2000 video with box tweeter and woofer but all flat nothing coming out or seen keys but hiden in a litle cover ,later i bought a stereo philips video and a friend of mine that lived for 4 years far from our home town he was wanting to show me his pioneer vhs video and he went to my home and i asked him ,you want to go and he had a strange face and said "this is like my pioneer video ,only yours seems better finished "and yes after a akai vhs video was the best vhs video i had, clean and perfect stereo sound in grey also automatic tracking or in a second the image and sound become perfect no matter in which video was recorded
The digital age was the future but Phillips was still making money from analogue with the royalties from the compact cassette and they just rested on their lorals MP3 and solid state and the micro chip was and is the future as well as streaming music
Mismanagement not registered patents and wrong partners 😢 Phillips would be the world leader in electronic chips if they stayed away from Asia and the USA 🎉 A great company and normally the Dutch manager are so smart 👍
Japan already had CDs in the 1960s and 1970s..but they were 3 inches.. not the standard 8 inch....i have a Panasonic mini CD player/radio combo from the 1970s that is designed to play a 3 inch CD...in Japan the disc was always sold in paper jackets....but they only had Japanese artist no American or British artist... Other was CDV and CDDR but those formats didnot make it to America....i remember seeing this in Japanese Homes
One of the most important companies now in the world ASML removed from the Philips name because they did see no future in it. luckily the Dutch government did see the future for the now most advanced machine maker for semiconductors.
We needed to outsource the production to Taipei, centralize it there. A smart move Anton Philips did, i did meet him at the Tu Eindhoven, that day i will never forget, my family was Philips management.
No, you are totally wrong! This video is completely made by myself. The voiceover robot reads my script and all the visuals also are made by myself! I hate such comments without any idea how it was really created.

That is my photo from the opening sequence. They are part of the 1001 Hi-Fi collection.
@@1001hifi oh, sorry. Didn’t know that. Found it in Google. Let me pin your comment, this way we can make people know about your project. Sorry again.
1001 Hi-Fi, true, but here on MFB speakers, and the 205 turntable.
It was never a series.
I have Philips CD/cassette/radio combos mc10 and mc118...made 1978 to 1982 and a mc235 they are still working.. and two FM radio/iPad docking station from the 1980s...all made in Holland..... statement Designed and Developed by Royal Philips BV Holland is on the back of the set 😊.. still my go to stereos.....
I wish Philips would make an updated 212 Turntable again….My uncle had one in the mid 70’s….That turntable was ahead of its time and sounded great 😊
This is the 205, still work perfect here
love it !
They were pioneers in tape, CD and DVD
Happy we own most of the gear in the first picture, those were the days.
Now we involved in ASML, TSMC, NXP etc, the better is always now !
My first turntable was a Philips 202, I bought it in 1975, as I saw something very similar on a television report from the 1972 Munich Olympics. It worked well.
Still use the 205 daily, same as this model.

Also no mention at all of professional sector products.
The Philips High-Fidelity International from the opening scene is mine. My photo, my collection - 1001 Hi-Fi
Come to my place, that record player is EPIC, on Motional Feedback.
On a modern Yamaha Amp now.
I want Philips shortwave radios from the 1960s and 1970s😊
I have some, where do you resident ? In Europe ?

Use a Philips Magnavox CDB 650 ,digital out to real time transfer CD's to a Tascam CDRW 700's, digital in. Bought the CDB 650 in 1986.

They currently make some very fine hearing aids.
Nice music
Kinda odd that you showed future products when mentioning competition from Sony VHS and Betamax
PHILIPS audio: The best Audio Signature in the world.
I presume that you are wrong. Philips cannot be defined as the best audio manufacturing company in the world.
I had one of these CD100 Players....
Sometimes the CDs came with more that 15 songs, and the only way to get to them is to please through the CD until you got to track 16, etc...
I sold it like 20 years later at a garage sale, and it was still working like new...

Sony is still good...

No one will sell CD 100 from the secondary market.
We still own it, bought it new for cheap in 1986 Amsterdam.
Some CD's it does weird tracks on the display, true
Losers were allowed to destroy such an excellent company with such a track record.
Shame!
