TDK Makes Great Multimedia Speaker Sound More Affordable Than Ever With New Tremor S-40 System

-- High-Tech, Ultra-Compact Flat-Panel Speaker System Now Shipping to Retailers Nationwide --

GARDEN CITY, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 12, 2002-- In a move that makes high-performance multimedia sound more affordable than ever, TDK, a leader in digital recording and playback solutions, today announced that it is now shipping its new Tremor S-40 satellite/subwoofer speaker system.

With an estimated street price of just $49.99, the latest addition to the Tremor speaker lineup brings acclaimed TDK sound quality to a wider variety of computer users than ever before.

Like all TDK Tremor speaker systems including the Tremor S-150, S-80 and S-60, the S-40 takes advantage of NXT's revolutionary SurfaceSound(TM) flat-panel speaker technology to create rich, room-filling music reproduction in a manner totally different than conventional speakers. Each ultra-slim satellite's wide dispersion pattern fills the listening area with an expansive soundfield, eliminating the "beaming" of conventional multimedia speakers and creating a wider sonic "sweet spot"--ideal for music listening, gaming, movie viewing and all computer audio applications. The sound is detailed, open and dynamic, with a smooth tonal balance everywhere in the room. All Tremor systems feature small-footprint stands that take up a minimum of space-- ideal for use in home and office installations. For additional desktop configuration options, the Tremor S-150 and S-80 also include mounts for hanging the satellite speakers from the wall or from the sides of a computer monitor.

Randall Rosenbaum, TDK's Product Manager pointed out: "We're extremely excited about our new Tremor S-40, because it offers a level of sound quality that has never been heard before at its price point. Thanks to the Tremor S-40, laptop and desktop computer users can now economically upgrade to a true high-performance audio system and enjoy significantly improved audio reproduction compared to conventional multimedia speakers."

Advanced Technologies for Superior Multimedia Sound

In addition to NXT's revolutionary SurfaceSound technology, the S-40, like all TDK Tremor systems features a high-speed subwoofer/amplifier module to complement the satellites' exceptional sonic performance. The S-40's Space Bass subwoofer features a high-excursion driver mounted in a compact, ported enclosure designed to cancel unwanted distortions and produce maximum bass output. All Tremor systems deliver the highest power output of any multimedia speaker system in their price range, and their bold, high-tech styling complements any computer installation.

The Ideal Compact Music Systems

In addition to unmatched multimedia performance, TDK's Tremor speaker systems are also perfect for use with portable audio devices to create a complete high-quality compact music system. Just connect a portable MP3 or CD player and enjoy great room-filling sound from any personal music player.
