THIEL to introduce award winning audio technology in the Middle East

The US-based Audio products company has teamed up with Emirates Computers, the leading technology integrator and distributor, to launch for the first time in the Middle East its most radical Thiel design to date - THIEL CS3.7. This state-of-the-art speaker will be officially launched at a press conference on February 26, 2006 at the Shangri-La hotel in Dubai.

THIEL Audio is a US based engineering-driven organization that performs research, design, and manufacturing of loudspeakers for audiophile grade home music listening and highest quality video sound reproduction. THIEL's products incorporate a variety of technological advancements in driver design, acoustical construction techniques, and crossover design.

All their work is directed toward one end: to provide the most realistic sound reproduction possible. THIEL manufactures sixteen loudspeaker models, the PowerPoint (on-wall), PowerPlane (in-wall), HigherPlane, SW1, SCS3, MCS1, PCS, CS.5, CS1.6, CS2.3 (floor-standing), CS3.6, CS6, CS7.2 (state-of-the-art floorstanding) and four specialty Smart Subwoofers.

Says Jim Thiel, Co-founder and Chief Engineer of Thiel Audio Products,

"Thiel Audio has established itself as a premium audio brand over the last 29 years. With so much development happening in the Middle East, especially in the tourism and hotel segment, and private property development, there is a growing demand for very high quality audio products such as THIEL. Our Middle East consumers can now expect wonderfully accurate renditions of their favorite listening music as well as similarly realistic home theatre experiences. All the engineering designs and features in our speaker systems aim towards the most accurate sound reproduction."

Jim Thiel together with Kathy Gornik, President of Thiel Audio, will be traveling from the US next week to launch Thiel CS3.7 for the first time outside of the U.S. market. Jim will also share his experience and research thoughts behind designing and developing the high-end multiple award winning Thiel speakers.

"Thiel has a reputation for pioneering new loudspeaker technologies and features and they have been investing heavily in research and development to achieve perfection in sound technology. Emirates Computers will promote Thiel's full range of audio products, which are synonymous with the finest sound quality and design. Innovative designs such as the CS3.7 and perfect sound quality per dollar will insure that THIEL Audio sets new acoustic standards in the Middle East," Tony Abou Jawad, Emirates Computers' Audio Visual Unit Manager comments.

"We plan to sell Thiel speakers out of our show rooms and through a Middle East dealer channel which we are currently auditioning," he adds.

Thiel Audio and Emirates Computers will hold a joint press conference to launch Thiel CS 3.7 at The Shangrila Hotel on February 26, 2006. Thiel CS3.7, which was designed after 12 years of extensive research at the Thiel factory, has revolutionized the standards people can expect for music listening and watching movies.
