Banking highly on the popularity and success of its surround sound technology, LG Electronics has announced that it has expanded its use of SRS TruSurround XT, which produces a remarkable surround sound experience over built-in TV speakers, within six new 2009 TV models, for a total of 14 SRS-equipped LG flat panel HDTVs available at retail.

SRS’ patented, feature rich TruSurround XT solution processes multichannel content to create compelling surround sound over a television’s two stereo speakers. As a result, users will sense that “phantom” speakers extend all around them to produce an amazing surround sound effect, complete with deep bass – all without the clutter of extra wires or speakers placed around the room. When receiving mono or stereo content, SRS TruSurround XT creates an immersive 3D wall of sound that moves well past the physical width of the TV. Dialog quality is also improved as this technology lifts the spoken word above the chaos of sound effects and background music so that it’s clear and distinct.

The LG series featuring SRS TruSurround XT includes the LG PG20 series, LG PG30 series, LG PG60 series, LG PS80 series, LG PS60 and LG PQ30 series. Reaffirming SRS’ position as the de facto standard for FPTV audio, throughout 2009 LG will equip 14 individual models within the series that support SRS’ state-of-the-art sound.
