SRS Virtual Surround Sound Technology Featured on HP Microdisplay TVs Available This Fall SANTA ANA, Calif., Sept. 16 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- SRS Labs, Inc. (NASDAQ:SRSL), one of the world's leading providers of audio, voice and surround sound technologies, today announced that its patented SRS TruSurround XT(R) virtual surround sound technology will be used in HP's new microdisplay televisions, including models MD5020, MD5820, MD6580 and MD5880 that ship this fall. These new multi-sized display products, the first from HP to include TruSurround XT, will be available at leading regional and specialty AV retailers. Customers of HP microdisplay televisions will enjoy a compelling "virtual" surround sound experience that TruSurround XT enables, without the need for a 5.1 speaker system. TruSurround XT brings multichannel, surround encoded, stereo and even mono audio alive with an encompassing surround sound experience from the TV's stereo speakers. Two additional powerful audio features, SRS Dialog Clarity(TM) and SRS TruBass(R), are also included to provide quality improvements of the audio experience. SRS Dialog Clarity improves dialog intelligibility during passages of movies where the actors' dialog is difficult to understand, a common problem due to today's production techniques and excessive use of surround audio effects. SRS TruBass is a patented bass enhancement technology that delivers deep, rich bass over small speakers and headphones, making it the ideal companion for products with sleek, slim designs, such as micro display TVs. SRS TruBass improves low frequency performance up to an octave below the limitations of the speaker drivers in these narrow configurations. "By working with HP to provide a top-quality audio system for their new line of microdisplay televisions, SRS Labs continues to diversify our positioning within a variety of market segments," said Lupita Ho, product marketing manager for SRS Labs. "HP has been building technologically innovative products for over 60 years and we are proud to be providing the audio for their new microdisplay line." "As a company with a rich history of product quality, we wanted to include a no-compromise audio system in our televisions," said B.K. Kumar, microdisplay product manager at HP. "SRS TruSurround XT virtual surround sound technology delivers a powerful audio experience to match the crisp, clear image quality the HP microdisplay televisions provide."
