| VANCOUVER, Wash., May 16
/PRNewswire/NEWSdesk -- Labtec (OTC Bulletin Board: LABT), experts in high-technology
computer peripherals, today announced the introduction of its Edge-418 flat panel speaker
system. Initially available exclusively at Best Buy, the Edge-418 uses revolutionary flat
panel technology to deliver top-quality audio performance from two incredibly thin
satellite speakers and a separate wood-enclosed subwoofer. The suggested retail price of
the system is $79.99. Innovative Design
Because of their dramatic thinness and clever design, the satellite speakers offer users a
variety of placement options. They may be mounted on the desktop, to a monitor or to the
wall to optimize desk space. All brackets for these options are included.
The Edge-418 also has a separate volume control that can be mounted on a computer monitor
or desk for easy access and volume adjustments. Additional convenient features such as
color-coded jacks and long cables also make the system easy to set up and use.
"With the emergence of flat-panel displays, small form-factor PCs and fashion
accessories, design is becoming increasingly important in the multimedia market,"
said Bob Wick, Labtec president and CEO. "We've addressed that opportunity with new
flat panel technology that offers the sound quality and value Labtec is trusted for. The
Edge-418 is another leap in the direction established with the recent introduction of our
cool-but-functional Spin Series of speakers."
Revolutionary Technology
In the Edge-418 satellite speakers, Labtec engineers combined their own proprietary design
solutions with Slab(TM) flat panel technology, to produce flat speakers that outperform
other existing flat panel designs. The system provides wide-field sound dispersion, smooth
frequency response, and a very open, spacious sound quality.
The high-tech flat panel speakers are powered by 11 watts (5 1/2W + 5 1/2W). The subwoofer
is powered by 19 watts for deep, rich bass and features a 5 1/4" Max-X(TM)
high-excursion driver to move more air and produce outstanding bass response, optimal
dynamic range and improved bass. The subwoofer utilizes exclusive Real-Time Dynamic Bass
Equalization(TM) that actively adjusts sound for optimum bass, without distortion, at
every listening level.
