SANTA ANA, Calif., May 4 -- SRS Labs (NASDAQ: SRSL), the industry leader in surround sound, audio, and voice technologies, announced today that it has formed its first strategic partnership within Europe with Numericable, the cable television operator in France, to deliver standardized HD and SD broadcast volume levels within all of its new and existing set-top boxes, through the implementation of SRS TruVolume(TM).

"SRS TruVolume is without question the most effective audio leveling solution available on the market. We're proud to announce our partnership with Numericable, and welcome the unique opportunity to help them become the first European operator to deliver standardized TV volume levels," said Gordon Schenk, Managing Director of Business Development for SRS Labs. "The most common and globally universal TV viewing complaint is abrasive volume fluctuations, and we can declare with confidence that TruVolume-equipped set-top boxes intuitively eliminate this problem for good."
SRS TruVolume is an advanced, intelligent volume control solution that eliminates the irritating volume fluctuations from television programming, commercials, DVDs, CDs, streaming content, and video games, resulting in a more enjoyable and level audio experience.
"At Numericable, we strive to provide our customers with an optimized entertainment experience, and through the support of the SRS TruVolume solution we can now deliver standard volume playback across HD and SD broadcast channels and on-demand video content, allowing us to put High Def channels first in the program guide," said Philippe Le May, Chief Technology Officer for Numericable.
A recent MarketTools consumer study revealed that more than 65-percent of consumers would be "happy" to "very happy" to learn that their cable or satellite provider provides a volume leveling solution, such as SRS TruVolume. Meanwhile, this same study indicated that more the 1/3 of consumers would be willing to switch to another provider in order to be free from drastic volume fluctuations.
TruVolume is now being delivered by Numericable as a firmware upgrade for compatible set-top boxes. This new partnership with Numericable has further solidified SRS Labs' position as the de facto standard for all audio post-processing applications.
