"Sharp produces top quality HDTVs and we're excited about further strengthening of our relationship with them. The ultra-thin design of AQUOS TVs and their breathtaking picture quality, coupled with the remarkable sound provided by SRS TruSurround XT, offers consumers the best possible home entertainment experience," said Allen H. Gharapetian, Vice President of Marketing for SRS Labs. "For the consumer, TruSurround XT means they can enjoy HD content that's buoyed by an immersive surround sound experience without the need for complicated wiring and speaker setup."

SRS' patented, feature-rich TruSurround XT solution processes multichannel content to create compelling surround sound over a television's built-in speakers. As a result, users will sense that "phantom" speakers extend all around them to produce an amazing surround sound effect, complete with deep bass--all without the clutter and expense of extra wires or speakers placed around the room. When receiving mono or stereo content, SRS TruSurround XT creates an immersive 3D wall of sound that moves well past the physical width of the TV. Dialog quality is also improved as the spoken word is lifted above the chaos of sound effects and background music for clear and distinct vocals.

The latest Sharp series' featuring SRS TruSurround XT includes the AQUOS A77M series and the AQUOS A66M series. These SRS-equipped LCD HDTV models are available across Asia, China, Middle East and Africa.

"Having great sound makes all the difference in the world, and SRS Labs has provided us with the ability to offer our customers the best possible listening experience," said Hiroshi Kusao, Division General Manager, LCD Digital Division IV for Sharp. "We are thrilled to have SRS TruSurround XT within so many of our HDTV models and are confident that the coupling SRS-sound with our incredible HD picture quality will produce a remarkably compelling multimedia experience."
