High-Quality Audio to Fit Every Setting and Every Wallet

FREMONT, Calif. – Sept. 25, 2003 – Logitech (NASDAQ: LOGI) (Switzerland: LOGN), the market leader in high-end PC audio, today announced a new line-up of multimedia speakers: six different systems that bring a variety of options to a wide range of sound enthusiasts.  The company is introducing three new Z-Series products, which provide premium sound and speaker design for music lovers and gaming aficionados, plus an entirely new line of X-Series products, developed to offer distinctive design and quality sound at an attractive price.  The new speakers are available this fall in U.S. retail outlets and online at www.logitech.com, ranging in price from $29.99 to $199.99. 

“Over the past two years, Logitech has achieved market leadership in the high-end multimedia speaker category, with its powerful Z-Series products,” said Ray Weikel, director of product marketing for Logitech’s Audio Business Unit.  “More and more people are looking for better-quality sound from their PCs and game consoles.  This year, we are expanding our audio family to meet these demands, by providing an entire line of products that offer performance and design for every audio environment and every budget.”

The Z-Series

Three new Z-Series products join the top-selling Z-Series line – two performance 2.1 systems and a new 5.1 gaming system. All of the products feature Logitech’s polished aluminum phase plug driver, which provides the clarity of a tweeter with the richness and fullness of a separate mid-range driver. Each model also includes a game-console adapter, enabling the system to be used across multiple platforms. Logitech will continue to sell the award winning Z-680 system as its top-of-the-line product. The new Z-Series products include:

Z-3: This 2.1 speaker system brings style and premium sound together in a modern design inspired by popular home audio systems – with real wood and aluminum surfaces.  With a suggested retail price of $99.99, the Z-3 offers premium sound features, including:
