Turtle Beach Corporation Partners With Amplified Resource Group, LLC For Groundbreaking HyperSound Clear(TM) Hearing Solutions Product
SAN DIEGO, June 23, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Turtle Beach Corporation (NASDAQ: HEAR), the leading-edge audio technology company, today announced a new partnership with Amplified Resource Group, LLC (ARG) as the Company continues making preparations to launch HyperSound Clear(TM) later this year. A first-of-its-kind hearing healthcare product, HyperSound Clear utilizes the Company's patented directional audio technology to deliver rich, 3D sound to the targeted listener to improve sound clarity and speech intelligibility for individuals with hearing loss - for a crisp, clear home entertainment listening experience when watching TV, listening to music and playing video games. Under this newly formed partnership, ARG - a leading provider of products and consulting services to the hearing healthcare industry - will add HyperSound Clear to its portfolio as soon as it becomes available.
"We're very excited to announce this partnership with ARG as they quickly grasped the value HyperSound Clear offers people with hearing loss and the hearing healthcare market," said Rodney Schutt, Senior Vice President and General Manager for the HyperSound® business at Turtle Beach Corporation. "HyperSound Clear is a great fit for the hearing healthcare industry, whether as a gateway product at the early stages of a patient's hearing health journey, or as an 'unplugged' entertainment solution after they've purchased hearing aids. Additionally, we believe HyperSound Clear reaches an even younger demographic who start struggling with the TV volume as early as their 40's, which helps lower the overall age when people address their hearing issues."
"Turtle Beach has a history of developing transformational products to bring to market," said Ken Payne, Director, Amplified Resource Group. "At ARG we are thrilled to partner with this innovative company and deliver HyperSound Clear to the people with hearing loss in the U.S. We're confident that this offering will be an unparalleled success."
HyperSound technology is a fundamentally new approach to sound delivery that utilizes thin panels to generate an ultrasound beam that carries audio through the air. The panels direct sound in a narrow, controlled beam; much the way a flashlight directs a beam of light. When an individual enters the beam, they hear immersive 3D audio, similar to wearing a surround sound headset.
HyperSound Clear speakers have been shown to improve sound clarity and speech intelligibility in individuals with hearing loss. Researchers estimate that one in five Americans, and one in three people over age 65, suffer from hearing loss. Impacting over 48 million Americans, hearing loss is the third most common chronic physical condition in the United States. An estimated 360 million people worldwide suffer from some form of hearing loss, and HyperSound Clear is on the verge of offering a new way for people with hearing loss to once again enjoy home entertainment.
