CEA AND QUALITYSOUNDMATTERS.COM CELEBRATE 55TH GRAMMY AWARDS^®WITH AUDIO PRODUCTS CONTEST

Music fans can win prizes to improve their audio experience

The Consumer Electronics Association (CEA)^®wants music lovers to hear music as their favorite artists intended. In celebration of the 55th GRAMMY Awards^®, which will take place Sunday, February 10, CEA today announces an online contest to award consumers with leading audio equipment. From February 4-10, visitors to CEA’s Facebook page (Facebook.com/CEAfeed) can enter to win one of three top prize packages to enhance their home entertainment experience.

The first place winner will receive a NuVo P200 and NuVo Gateway wireless sound system with Triad Speakers, a $1,600 prize package that allows the streaming of high quality music from wireless content providers such as Pandora^® through best-in-class speakers. Other superior audio equipment up for grabs in the contest includes a set of Clarity HD™ speakers from Monster^® (MSRP $750), engineered to maximize the audio quality of today's digital music, with a clear focus on articulation, intelligibility, accuracy, dynamics and realistic sound-staging, as well as audiophile-grade Polk Audio UF8000 sound cancelling headphones (MSRP $350), an ultra-high performance audio product that delivers focused details, full fidelity and the deep bass of live performances. Winners will be selected at random.

This promotion will highlight the ongoing partnership between CEA and The Recording Academy^® Producers & Engineers Wing. Together they created QualitySoundMatters.com, which offers information and insight about how to find and enjoy quality music recordings on superior audio products. The website’s articles on products, technologies, recording artists and music producers who are leading the way in the quality audio revolution are composed specifically to help consumers better understand the industry and the media they enjoy most. While a recent research study conducted by CEA finds that nine in ten audio enthusiasts say sound quality is the most important component of an audio experience, there are other factors of product comparison and sales that QualitySoundMatters.com can help consumers clarify.

For more information on resources dedicated to learning about and discovering quality audio or to enter the contest, please visit the QualitySoundMatters.com portal on the official website for the 55th GRAMMY Awards^®. Participants also are invited to follow the CEA Facebook page for additional news and promotions about the consumer electronics industry at Facebook.com/CEAfeed.
