EINDHOVEN, The Netherlands, December 22/PRNewswire/ --

- An Innovative Tool to Create the Best Layout in Your Living Room for
Home Cinema Viewing

Customers wanting to purchase a Home Cinema System, LCD or plasma screen
are faced with a number of key decisions. How big should the new screen be,
where should I put it, and how should I hang it in order to get the very best
viewing angle for the screen? Vogel's is introducing a new tool to help with
this: the Home Cinema Planner. On the updated Vogel's website, anyone can
simulate the viewing situation in their own living room and get advice on
relevant screen size and the most appropriate type of support.

Home Cinema Planner

Using it is simple. Firstly, you state whether you already have a screen
and, if so, give its size. Next, you arrange the room. You place seating,
together with people watching TV, on a layout of the room. If you have not
given a screen size, the Home Cinema Planner offers its own advice on the
ideal dimensions. If you are happy with the layout, the Home Cinema Planner
proceeds to submit its advice, indicating the correct screen size and related
type of suspension. For example, "flat against the wall" is sufficient in a
living room with viewers directly facing the screen. More creative layouts
require a type of suspension that allows the LCD or plasma screen to be moved
in several directions. The advantage for customers is to simulate their own
home situation and thus be offered appropriate advice. This means that you
only need to purchase the screen and suspension that are suitable for that
particular situation.

Updated website

The Home Cinema Planner is part of the updated Vogel's website. In
addition to this innovative tool, this website has been made more
user-friendly and is available entirely in English.

Flatscreen fitter and home cinema tips

In addition to the Home Cinema Planner, two initiatives have already been
developed to provide customers with information on using supports. The
flatscreen fitter, found at www.flatscreenfitter.com, provides rapid,
straightforward advice to customers with LCD or plasma screens who want to
know which Vogel's support is right for them. The www.homecinematips.com
website includes 33 tips for creating the ideal home cinema experience. The
site provides advice on the assembly, layout, connection and positioning of
home cinema systems.

These applications are initiatives by Vogel's - manufacturer of
innovative supports for audio and video equipment - and can be found at
www.vogels.com.
