You have a lot of MP3 files on your portable music player. You would like to enjoy them with your family and friends on a better sound system. Philips WACS7000 offers instant access to your music via ‘USB Direct’ – in the comfort of your living room. - Page 70 USB Direct works with most Philips GoGear MP3 players such as the SA11xx, SA12xx, SA13xx series, but not the hard disk based MP3 players. When I plug in a USB device in the WACS7000 and switch to USB mode, the display shows a message “No USB device detected”. What does this mean? This means your USB device cannot be recognized by USB Direct.
