Chicago's Beloved Audio/Video Store - Abt Electronics - Becomes First Retailer In The Nation To Carry Turtle Beach's Revolutionary HyperSound Clear 500P Directed Audio System

"With HyperSound's amazingly clear surround-sound experience you have to hear it to believe it and Abt Electronics is the perfect retailer to launch our pilot program that offers savvy electronics shoppers the opportunity to experience HyperSound directly," said Juergen Stark, CEO, Turtle Beach Corporation. "Time and time again we've witnessed people's real-time reactions to HyperSound and there's just no describing it – you simply need to sit in the beam and experience it for yourself, which is why I encourage everyone in the local Chicago area to visit the Abt store and get a proper HyperSound Clear 500P demo."

Added Mike Abt, Co-President, Abt Electronics, "I enjoyed the HyperSound demo and thought the speakers filled a big need for people struggling to hear the TV. Nothing bothers me more than a TV with the volume turned-up all the way, and the HyperSound Clear 500P enables someone having trouble understanding dialogue from the TV to listen at their own level, while the rest of the family can sit in the same room and enjoy the TV at its regular volume level."

HyperSound technology is Turtle Beach's fundamentally new approach to sound delivery that generates a highly directional beam of audio in the air. Similar to how a flashlight directs a beam of light, the HyperSound Clear 500P directs a beam of audio to targeted listeners, delivering an amazing, 3D audio experience that sounds as if you're wearing a high-end surround sound headset, yet without wearing anything on your head at all. HyperSound's unique directed audio has been shown to significantly¹ improve sound clarity and speech intelligibility to provide a much better home entertainment listening experience for people struggling to hear the TV.

Abt Electronics is located at 1200 N. Milwaukee Ave. in Glenview, IL 60025. For more information about Abt Electronics, visit the store's website at www.abt.com or call (847) 544-2933.
