/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- SRS Labs, Inc. (NASDAQ:SRSL), one of the
world's leading providers of audio technology solutions, and Coming
Home Studios, a Los Angeles-based full service television and DVD
production and distribution company, today announced the release of
the much-anticipated single- and double-disc editions of "Duran
Duran: Live in London." The DVD will be available in North America
beginning November 1, 2005 at many popular music retail outlets,
including Tower Records. This ground-breaking DVD, created during
the band's sold-out shows at Wembley Stadium in London, will be
presented in SRS Labs' Circle Surround(R) 5.1 encoding technology.
Devoted Duran Duran fans can also vie for the opportunity to
participate in a HD theatrical screening of the DVD at one of ten
major cities across the country, including New York, Los Angeles,
Chicago, Boston, San Francisco, Washington DC, Detroit, Seattle,
Phoenix and San Diego by winning tickets through popular radio
stations, or by purchasing a ticket online through
http://www.fandango.com/, or view more ticket links through Duran
Duran's official website at http://www.duranduran.com/. "SRS Labs'
Circle Surround encoding technology is a powerful 5:1 option
available to the home theater customer," said Jack Gulick, head of
production at Coming Home Studios and producer of the Duran Duran
DVD. "By using SRS Circle Surround technology on our music DVD
products, we are able to offer the customer a DVD that has the SRS
brand recognition and confidence that the audio will be delivered
in full stereo and expansive 5:1 across a vast range of popular
audio component brands with consistency and quality. Having the SRS
brand in our product indicates to the consumer that we place audio
first and they are purchasing a high-quality music experience."
"We're pleased to have our technology associated with such a
talented team and to be involved in what promises to be one of the
year's most popular music concert DVDs," said Mike Canevaro, senior
product marketing director at SRS Labs, Inc. "Together, SRS Labs
and Coming Home Studios are reshaping how consumers experience live
concert footage. We look forward to many more years of
collaboration." The 2-disc edition retails for $29.99 at most major
music and entertainment stores. SRS Circle Surround is a patented
surround format that allows a 5.1 or 6.1 surround mix to be stored
or transferred over any two-channel format, including the stereo
track of a DVD. Any listener with a surround sound system will
enjoy the original 5.1 mix that the artist and engineers created.
This also means that any Circle Surround encoded clip that is
broadcast over television or radio, compressed for distribution
online, or stored digitally on standard media, such as CDs, DVD-Rs,
or personal music juke boxes, will retain the surround sound
information. One of the most powerful features of the technology is
that it is 100% compatible with all playback environments, from
one-speaker mono to two-speaker stereo or multi speaker surround
sound. One mix satisfies everyone's listening requirements. SRS
Circle Surround encoding is backward compatible with all playback
systems, including mono and stereo formats. Listeners of the Duran
Duran DVD who have Circle Surround II(TM) or other matrix surround
decoder installed, will hear a stunning 5.1 surround sound
experience, while those listening over regular two-speaker stereo
systems will hear the DVD in enhanced stereo. This DVD, and others
like it, contributes to the growing demand by consumers for SRS
Circle Surround content, as well as for consumer electronic
products with SRS Circle Surround decoding technology. For audio
enthusiasts looking for Circle Surround II decoding technology, it
is currently available from manufacturers such as Marantz,
Panasonic, Pioneer, Kenwood, Motorola and Yamaha. For information
