<p>SANTA ANA, Calif., September 27, 2007 -- SRS Labs, Inc. (NASDAQ: SRSL), a<br />
leading provider of surround sound, audio enhancement and voice<br />
technologies, announced the release of iWOW 2, the latest version of the<br />
popular and award-winning iTunes plug-in for Macintosh computers.</p>
<p>iWOW 2 uses several patented audio enhancement technologies from SRS Labs<br />
to provide full, 3D audio over desktop and laptop computers as well as<br />
external speakers and headphones. iWOW 2 not only brings Mac users a<br />
richer, more powerful and brilliant audio experience when listening to<br />
music, videos or podcasts, but now it also provides new preset options and<br />
offers listeners the ability to listen and enjoy movies and videos on<br />
iTunes in surround sound over headphones.</p>
<p>With iWOW 2 users are now given the ability to create and save presets for<br />
specific songs, videos and podcasts. An "Auto-preset' option, also new to<br />
iWOW 2, automatically chooses the best iWOW preset based on the information<br />
in the music or video. Additional presets were created specifically for<br />
podcasts, techno and acoustic music plus there are three new playback<br />
settings for videos. With iWOW 2 users can easily customize their audio<br />
experience for different types of content.</p>
<p>Another new feature is iWOW 2's Movie Mode, which offers users a unique way<br />
to enjoy movies and videos in iTunes. With virtual surround sound over<br />
headphones, users can enjoy a home theater-like experience from their<br />
videos on the go or at home.</p>
<p>The incorporation of several SRS audio enhancement technologies allows iWOW<br />
2 users more control and flexibility over the audio content in iTunes. For<br />
instance, the addition of SRS Headphone 360 creates amazing virtual<br />
surround sound over headphones for videos and movies. SRS WOW HD improves<br />
the audio performance of compressed and uncompressed audio by expanding the<br />
size of the audio image in the horizontal and vertical sound field and<br />
creating a deep, rich bass response. SRS 3D creates a three-dimensional<br />
stereo enhancement for mono or stereo content while SRS 3D Center Control<br />
uses a virtual "zoom" lens to dynamically extracts and position the dialog<br />
in the foreground or background of the audio mix. SRS TruBass maximizes<br />
bass response as SRS FOCUS optimizes speaker output to compensate and<br />
reposition instrument placement. SRS Definition delivers a more lively and<br />
brilliant sound by highlighting the high frequency details and restoring<br />
data originally present in the audio source but was lost during the audio<br />
compression process.</p>
<p>"SRS Labs is dedicated to introducing complete, customizable audio<br />
solutions to strengthen Mac users' multimedia experience," said Tom Yuen,<br />
Chairman and CEO, SRS Labs. "As the popularity of Mac's as entertainment<br />
devices increases, so does the demand for enhanced audio to ensure the best<br />
experience. With iWOW 2, music and video can be experienced with superior<br />
audio that complements the visual experience."</p>
<p>System requirements for iWOW 2 are any Macintosh running OS X 10.2 or<br />
better with iTunes 6 or better. The plug-in is available for download (Now)<br />
directly from SRS Labs at (<a href="http://www.srslabs.com/iwow" title="http://www.srslabs.com/iwow">http://www.srslabs.com/iwow</a>) and other leading<br />
download sites. The plug-in sells for an introductory price of $19.99 after<br />
a brief trial period. Users who have previously purchased iWOW 1 can try<br />
the new version and upgrade for only $11.99.</p>
