Soul Electronics, a global leader in pro and consumer audio manufacturing and the creators of the popular SOUL by Ludacris premium headphone line, has unveiled its newest audiophile device, Party in a Box, at this year’s International Consumer Electronics Show in Las
Vegas.

This sleek, yet powerful wireless entertainment system is completely unique in its
class with three different built-in formats, including Apple AirPlay® capability for
use with iOS devices, advanced Bluetooth streaming capability that allows users
to pair with various Bluetooth devices, and a 5.8GHz two way transceiver that
provides CD quality, uncompressed wireless listening and allows users to sync
together multiple PIAB units or other wireless speakers for an expanded sound
system. Perfect for the home, dorm room or even outdoor entertaining, the SOUL
Party in a Box has the sonic power to deliver the impact of a full home
entertainment system in the form factor of a mobile boom box.

“We have dedicated some of the world’s most advanced audio engineering
technology to the Party in a Box, and we can’t wait to see the reaction when we
unveil this powerful system at the CES Show,” said Bob Bonefant, The SOUL
Man. “We are confident that we’ve got a product that is untouchable, and SOUL
fans will not believe their ears when this thing fires up.”

The robust eight-speaker, Omni-Directional Hybrid system with dual 6.5-inch
subwoofers, two 3-inch midrange speakers and four one inch tweeters fills any
room, delivering stunningly powerful sound with a superb balance of deep bass
with clear mids and highs. Its digital signal processing capabilities deliver
precision balancing and mixing of bass, mids and highs for a full range of sound.

The modern black casing with aluminum accents offers an extra design element,
creating a sophisticated look to complement the superior sound characteristics.
The programmable multi-color perimeter light helps set the perfect mood for any
event. Party in a Box also features an FM RDS tuner.

The 110V to 240V AC 50/60 Hz power supply allows users to enjoy Party in a
Box in most locations around the world. It also includes a 12V cigarette lighter
adapter; ideal for tailgating, camping, and boating. Plus, the optional high-
capacity rechargeable batteries keep the party going for hours when AC or 12V
power is not available.

Want to take the party outdoors? The auxiliary audio input makes Party in a Box
the perfect theater audio system for outdoor entertainment, allowing users to
connect Party in a Box to additional stereos and sound sources for a larger
sound system.

For hosts looking to communicate with their guests, the balanced MIC input
delivers crystal sound, turning Party in a Box into the ultimate PA system. It also
has a headphone jack for private enjoyment. Plus, the unique guitar strap makes
mingling and controlling the music environment easier, and more fun, than ever
before.

The VU analog meters offer an added visual effect. They display the current
voltage output of Party in a Box so users can watch the needles jump back and
forth.

The onboard controls and integrated lockable handle makes Party in a Box the
perfect docking solution, bringing the old school boombox design into the 21st
century. It even has a guitar style shoulder strap for added comfort when partying
on-the-go.

And for the ultimate movie theater experience on the go, Party in a Box can bring
any movie soundtrack to life with its spacial signal processing and thundering
bass, and it even has an HDMI output for a projector or TV.

Sony Electronics today announced the addition of two new home devices powered by the Google TV™ platform. Sony was one of the industry’s first to launch the ‘Google TV’ products in 2010, and is now taking another step into the future of the home entertainment convergence. The NSZ-GS7 Network Media Player and NSZ-GP9 Blu-ray Disc™ Player will both arrive on shelves in North America and Europe in early summer 2012, and distribution is planned to expand and include other countries and regions.

“The first generation of devices powered by Google TV combined the powerful Android platform with Sony’s legendary home audio/video hardware to deliver on the promise of converging entertainment,” said Charles Speidel, vice president of Sony Electronics’ Home Audio and Video Division. “These brilliant additions advance positive features of the previous models, bringing an intuitive remote control and cross-device connectivity with smartphones, tablets and Sony Internet Audio & Video products – enhancing the home entertainment experience.”

In 2010, Sony introduced the world’s first television and a Blu-ray Disc player powered by Google TV. In 2011, the platform was updated and added the Android™ Market, making the first-generation Sony Internet TV devices easier to navigate and giving viewers access to thousands of apps, including about 150 apps optimized for TV, for an enhanced customized entertainment experience.

The Google TV difference starts with the cross search functionality, which crawls all content sources available from broadcast providers* and the Internet to deliver customized video results on demand.  Both new boxes come complete with a redesigned remote control equipped with a backlit QWERTY keyboard, a touch pad for easy operation and a three-axis motion sensor to enjoy games. Additionally, the remote control can also be utilized as a universal remote to control connected devices such as TV, set top box and amplifiers – the NSZ-GP9 Blu-ray Disc Player even incorporates voice search capabilities. By using Sony apps Media Remote™ and TrackID® for Android and iOS mobile devices, users may achieve cross-device connectivity. TrackID is also pre-installed in NSZ-GS7 and NSZ-GP9, allowing customers to search on their connected TV.  The new remote control can manage basic operations on select compatible 2012 BRAVIA televisions and seamlessly display Android Market or apps on the menu screen.

PRESS RELEASE

Zune, Microsoft Corp.’s end-to-end digital entertainment service and media player, today announced significant advancements for consumers. The new Zune HD touch-screen media player is now available at retail, and a powerful update to the Zune PC software is free for download. For the first time, standard- and high-definition (HD) movies can be purchased or rented¹ through the Zune Marketplace online store, and a new streaming music service on Zune.net lets Zune Pass subscribers listen to music from a Web browser. The updates to the Zune hardware, software and online services released today, combined with a new Zune video offering on Xbox LIVE coming later this fall, bring customers instant access to their favorite music and videos anywhere,² across their mobile device, PC and TV.

“With today’s announcement, the Zune business is growing into a comprehensive entertainment service that’s no longer tied to any one screen or device,” said Enrique Rodriguez, corporate vice president of the TV, Video and Music Business at Microsoft. “Zune lets consumers connect to their music, TV shows and movie content and enjoy it on the three screens they use every day.”

Zune HD: Next-Generation Digital Entertainment

Zune HD marks a significant step forward for portable media players, combining powerful hardware components such as an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) multitouch screen, an NVIDIA Tegra HD processor and HD Radio capabilities with software advancements such as the new Quickplay menu, a well-featured Web browser, and engaging music and video playback features to deliver a new portable listening and viewing experience. Quickplay is a new signature menu for Zune, putting customers one touch away from the content they love, such as favorites, last played items and media most recently added, eliminating the need to dig through menus to find the music, videos, pictures or podcasts they want.

With Zune HD, consumers now have the ability to store and play back 720p HD video files to an HDTV using the new Zune HD AV dock accessory. Consumers can buy or rent HD content from the Zune Marketplace, sync that content to a Zune HD device, and take it with them to play back on a large-screen HDTV in the home or on the road.

Every Zune device currently includes a built-in FM tuner, and now the Zune HD device offers the first portable HD Radio receiver on a Wi-Fi-enabled device. With HD Radio, listeners experience crystal-clear sound on more than 2,000 stations in the U.S. and have access to more than 1,000 stations that simulcast content in a variety of formats, from adult contemporary to news talk. Zune HD users can also tag songs they hear on supported HD Radio stations for purchase immediately if in a Wi-Fi hot spot, or complete the purchase later when using the Zune PC software.

Zune HD also features new casual games and non-gaming functionality such as a calculator and an MSN Weather application. Later this year, Zune plans to release free applications such as Twitter for Zune and Facebook for Zune, in addition to fun 3-D games such as “Project Gotham Racing: Ferrari Edition,” “Vans Sk8: Pool Service” and “Audiosurf™ Tilt.” Games can be added to Zune HD via Zune Marketplace over the Wi-Fi connection or when connected to the Zune PC software.

Zune HD is available from major retailers with a black 16GB version for $219.99 (estimated retail price) and a platinum 32GB version for $289.99 (ERP). Additional red, green and blue devices are available in both capacities from Zune Originals ( http://www.zuneoriginals.net ), where customers can also customize the back of the Zune HD device with art and text etchings to create a unique Zune.

“Our research indicates that there’s strong consumer demand for dedicated media players and Zune HD offers visible differentiation in this market,” said Michael Gartenberg, vice president of strategy and analysis at Interpret LLC. “Microsoft is also offering some compelling software and services with the Zune ecosystem that will help Zune HD stand out from other offerings.”

Greater Access to and Control of Music and Videos

Zune is also refreshing its free Zune PC software with new discovery and recommendation features, such as Quickplay and Smart DJ, that help users find and play digital content. The Quickplay menu available on the device is also featured on the PC software, allowing favorite content to be displayed along with most recently played and added music, video and podcast content.

The new Smart DJ feature showcases the power of the Zune software and services by creating endless playlists using any artist, album or song as the starting point. For Zune Pass subscribers, Smart DJ will queue song recommendations from both the customer’s collection and from more than 6 million tracks in the Zune Marketplace. Nonsubscribers will get Smart DJ recommendations from the user’s music collection. Movies make their way into the Zune PC software this fall for rental and purchase. Users can watch movies in the Zune PC software with a full-screen viewing mode or sync them to Zune HD for viewing on the go. Many titles are available in HD and standard definition, with additional titles making their way into the catalog in coming months.

Streaming Music, On Demand

Now as Zune Pass subscribers, not only can customers enjoy access to close to 6 million songs from the Zune Marketplace catalog for $14.99, the price of one CD a month, but they can also log into Zune.net and stream full albums and tracks through a computer’s browser. Customers will also find the Smart DJ feature on artist pages in Zune.net, which means they are one click away from starting an endless playlist to keep them rocking through the day.

The Zune Service Extends Across Microsoft Platforms

Later this fall, Zune video will expand to nearly 20 million Xbox LIVE users, combining the Zune and Xbox video stores so consumers have access to more content provided by Zune. With unified video catalogs on Zune and Xbox LIVE, customers will have the ability to play purchased movies and TV shows across Xbox, the PC and Zune HD. Zune will also be introducing new technology enhancements in Xbox LIVE, providing a choice to download or instantly stream HD video in full 1080p with 5.1 surround sound.
