WIRE)--Feb. 5, 2001--Logitech (NASDAQ:LOGIY); (Switzerland:LOGN, LOGZ) is cranking up its
SoundMan speaker lineup with the release of its flagship product, SoundMan® Xtrusio(TM)
DSR-100. At a suggested retail price of $179.95, SoundMan Xtrusio DSR-100 can be purchased

Utilizing patented LIMAD(TM) (Linear Magnetic Drive) technology, DSR-100 provides high-fidelity sound reproduction from full, deep bass to soaring highs. SoundMan Xtrusio DSR-100's four-channel digital surround sound system offers world-class industrial design, with a sleek extruded aluminum subwoofer and four satellite speakers whose stylish, contemporary shape represents a pleasing change from the rigid, institutional look of competing systems.

By using this material, Logitech has been able to design the subwoofer to deliver superb sound quality without compromising on appearance.
