SLS International Provides Surround System For Honda/Acura's Dealer Show

SLS's products are used to demonstrate to dealers the effects of the new 5.1 DVD Audio systems coming in the new Acura automobiles.

SPRINGFIELD, Mo., Oct. 2 -- SLS International, Inc. (BULLETIN BOARD: SITI) announced today that it was contacted by the head of the Panasonic Automotive Group to supply a large format 5.1 Surround System at the Acura dealer show in the Mosconi Center in San Francisco on Oct. 2, 2003, to effectively demonstrate to a large audience the effects of 5.1 DVD Audio surround sound. The demonstration was given to approximately 1,000 Acura dealers. The recommendation to select SLS was made by a leading engineer, who has produced and recorded music for the Eagles, Fleetwood Mac, Steely Dan and others. SLS will provide a system based on its highly acclaimed Studio Reference Series.

These speakers are the same models that have been and are being used by The Grammy Soundtable events produced by NARAS (National Association of Recording Arts and Sciences) throughout the United States. These models were recently installed in the University of Massachusetts Recording Institute and Peerless Mastering Studios in Boston and have been praised as the most accurate and natural sounding speakers in the world.

"This request for our products by such acclaimed professionals and industry leaders will become another tool to include in our international marketing and branding campaign that will begin in January," said John Gott, President and CEO of SLS International. "As demonstrated by the growing recognition for our products, we are confident that the SLS name will become an industry and household name once the general public has an opportunity to use our products. Since we were able to attract Sting, a leading international recording artist, to endorse our products, we feel that the branding campaign will gain momentum very fast."
