GET A "CASE" OF ON-THE-GO MUSIC FUN!

TDK INTRODUCES WORLD'S FIRST CD CASE WITH INTEGRATED SPEAKER

-- New I'MASPEAKER Uses Flat-Panel Speaker Technology
To Turn a CD Case into a Portable Speaker

Singapore, 28th July 2003 - Everyone knows great music comes from CDs, but what if music came from the CD case itself? TDK, a world leader in innovative audio/video recording and playback solutions, today introduced a breakthrough in music portability and fun — the TDK I'MASPEAKER. The compact, multi-function I'MASPEAKER looks just like a standard CD carrying case — but flat-panel speakers hidden in the case lining provide rich, clear sound. Users simply plug a portable audio player or laptop into the unit to begin enjoying great sound anytime, anywhere.

All Your Favorite Music Anywhere, Anytime!

TDK's I'MASPEAKER (Integrated Music Accessory Speaker —pronounced "I'm-a-speaker") is a convenient on-the-go alternative to headphones, boom boxes or standalone satellite speakers. I'MASPEAKER is available in two models (dual-speaker and single-speaker versions), in a variety of different textures and colors including blue, black, and red.

For maximum listening enjoyment, the dual-speaker model holds 24 CDs and offers seven hours of playing time using three AA batteries, while the single-speaker version holds 12 CDs and provides eight hours of playing time using two AA batteries.

TDK is the first company to market this unique speaker-in-a-CD-case concept, which utilizes advanced SurfaceSound™ flat-panel speaker technology developed by NXT, a leader in innovative audio solutions. Both I'MASPEAKER models are compact, yet provide open, natural and expansive sound quality. The dual-speaker version measures 166 x 310 x 55mm while the single-speaker I'MASPEAKER measures just 165 x 165 x 55mm — proving once again that great things do come in small packages.

Noted Toshikazu Yahata, Product Planning Manager: "TDK is committed to using today's most advanced, cutting-edge technologies to create fun, innovative products that give our customers more freedom and flexibility when it comes to enjoying their favorite music. Our new I'MASPEAKER models combine performance and convenience in a truly groundbreaking product that looks as good as it sounds."

The TDK I'MASPEAKER models will be available in Asia August 2003.
