[The following is a release from ZVOX]

December 21, 2007

ZVOX Audio has introduced an elegant single-cabinet surround sound system called the Model 325. Designed predominantly for use as audio for television, the Model 325 rivals the performance of more costly multi-speaker packages all from within a box that is a slim 17 inches wide. The Model 325 features high-performance speakers, a sophisticated internal amplifier, an authoritative powered subwoofer and ZVOX’s renowned PhaseCueTM virtual surround technology. The Model 325 is an outstanding value with an MSRP of $349.99. “Millions of people are buying cool new flat-panel TVs–only to discover that their sound is as flat as their picture, “ says ZVOX founder Tom Hannaher. “But the appeal of flat-panel sets lies in their sleek, minimalist design. Nobody wants to mess that up with a bunch of speakers and wires. Our new ZVOX 325 delivers performance on par with expensive multi-speaker systems...but from a one small cabinet. It’s the perfect way to add great sound to a flat panel TV.” Designed by veteran speaker engineer Winslow Burhoe, of the ZVOX 325 includes the following features: • Small size: 17” x 16” x 5”. It’s the same width as a standard sized DVD player. • Easy hookup – only one connecting wire. • Simple operation—the “owner’s manual” fits on one sheet of paper. • Three precision-made 3.25” full-range speaker drivers in a PhaseCueTM array. • ZVOX exclusive PhaseCue virtual surround system creates an ultra-wide soundstage–so it sounds like you are listening to speakers 8 feet apart from each other. PhaseCue system also generates virtual surround effects with movie soundtracks – without rear or side speakers. • • High-excursion 4”x6” powered subwoofer in bandpass cabinet designed with proprietary ZVOX software. • • Sophisticated amplification system that combines the benefits of electronic contouring and bi- amplification with special limiter circuits that prevent distortion. Front-panel input that allows the user to override the rear inputs so he/she can listen to an iPod® or other portable audio system. • Credit card sized remote control for volume up/down and muting. The latest in a series of anti-complicated audio systems, the 325 sets new standards of performance for simple, single-box home theater solutions. Its combination of high output level, strong bass response, small cabinet size and affordable price make it the ideal audio solution for flat-panel TVs 22”-50” in size. ZVOX one-box audio systems sound great, fit anywhere and are ultra-simple to use. Our exclusive PhaseCue™ and Infinite Compliance™ technologies create an extremely wide, room-filling soundstage comparable to large systems with speakers 10-12 feet apart from each other. Our PhaseCue circuitry creates clearly-audible “virtual surround sound” effects with many movie soundtracks. But ZVOX systems can be as small as the average cable box – only 17” wide. Their built-in powered subwoofers deliver terrific, realistic bass for movies or movie soundtracks. You can connect the ZVOX 325 system to a TV, DVD player, CD player, iPod® or other MP3 player, satellite radio, clock radio or PC – anything with audio outputs or a headphone jack – and get wonderful, accurate, room-filling sound.
