announced today that TTE Technology, Inc., manufacturer of RCA Televisions,

"RCA is a highly respected TV brand with a lasting heritage of innovation, as
RCA LCD HDTVs today are known to provide users with great picture quality and
performance," said Allen H. Gharapetian, Vice President of Marketing for SRS
Labs. "During 2009, even more RCA customers will have the chance to enjoy the
comprehensive and remarkable multimedia experience that's made possible with
SRS TruSurround XT and we welcome the opportunity to continually build upon
our strong partnership with TTE to bring even greater value to RCA LCD
customers."

SRS' patented, feature rich TruSurround XT solution processes multichannel
content to create a compelling surround sound experience over a television's
two built-in stereo speakers. As a result, users will sense that "phantom"
speakers extend all around them to produce an amazing and natural surround
sound effect, complete with deep bass - all without the clutter 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 this technology
lifts the spoken word above the chaos of sound effects and background music so
that it's clear and distinct.

The RCA 37 series, 38 series and 380 series featuring SRS TruSurround XT are
immediately available, while the RCA 41 and 48 series' will be available in
the spring, reaffirming SRS' position as the de facto standard for FPTV audio.
Within these series collectively, 10 LCD flat panel HDTV models will be
available in 2009, with screen sizes including 40-inch, 42-inch, 46-inch and
52-inch.

"Our long-standing relationship with SRS Labs has proven that sound matters a
great deal in terms of providing the best possible multimedia experience to
our customers," said Rich Dinsmore, Executive Vice President for TTE's North
American Business Center. "The RCA brand is aimed at providing tremendous
value and performance while maintaining top quality--SRS Labs helps us
accomplish that."

SRS-equipped RCA LCD HDTVs will be available at retail locations and
e-commerce sites throughout the U.S. and Canada, such as Walmart, Walmart.com,
Target.com, K-mart, The Brick, Canadian Tire and Loblaws. 

SRS Labs is running a sweepstakes to give away three RCA HDTVs featuring the
SRS TruSurround XT suite. The sweepstakes will take place March 23 - April 20,
2009. To enter for your chance to win, please visit
