Audyssey Introduces Premium Mobile: A Suite of Audio Technologies for Mobile Phone Manufacturers and Developers

BARCELONA, SPAIN – (Marketwire – February 14, 2011) – Audyssey, a global leader in audio technology for the home, automotive and theater markets, today announced at the World Mobile Congress that it has introduced the Audyssey Premium Mobile Suite, a set of breakthrough technologies that solve fundamental problems to improve sound quality in mobile phones and other portable devices. While mobile phones are convenient tools, they are often hampered by poor sound quality. Small speakers and amplifiers suffer from many problems and to fix them, Audyssey integrates a number of its technologies to enable great sound from these devices.

The most fundamental problem is poor sound caused by speakers in acoustically challenged enclosures. Audyssey has years of experience solving this problem in home theaters, automobiles and movie theaters. Improving sound quality for mobile phones and other portable devices is the natural next step for Audyssey.

Mobile phones are typically plagued by distorted and unnatural sound, low volumes, lack of bass and varying volume levels for different content. These problems degrade the quality of content playback and make conversations difficult, frustrating and, at times, uncomfortable.

The first step in fixing these problems is to correct and calibrate the speakers. Audyssey then uses additional technologies to boost the overall sound level, remove volume swings and restore bass for audio that is rich, detailed and balanced to more closely match the original content. The final touch comes from new technologies that specifically target telephony issues.

Mobile phones are used in many different situations, from quiet rooms, to noisy train stations. Audyssey technologies dynamically adjust audio levels based on ambient noise, remove echo from speakerphones and reduce room noise pickup. Audyssey’s technologies monitor both ends of the call, not only improving what you hear, but also what you say. It is a complete solution that dramatically improves the quality of your calls. It is the next step in the mobile phone revolution.
