Audiophiles Listen in on Razer and THX at the Razer Mako's First European Debut

15/03/2007 - 11:29

Razer, a leading manufacturer of high-end precision gaming and
lifestyle electronics peripherals, will showcase the Razer Mako(TM)
2.1 multimedia speaker system for seven days in Hannover, Germany,
Hall 22 of the CeBIT 2007 tradeshow. Journalists from all around
Europe will experience the Razer Mako first-hand and meet with sound
engineers and scientists of gaming industry leader Razer and audio
industry pioneer THX Ltd. President of Razer, Robert "Razerguy"
Krakoff, and chief scientist of THX, Laurie Fincham, will also be on
hand to demonstrate how the Razer Mako will pioneer the desktop audio
market.

"The Razer Mako turns any desktop into an amazing soundstage and
fills more of a room with sound, so listeners are assured of having
clear and crisp acoustics," said Robert "Razerguy" Krakoff, president
of Razer. "With the Razer Mako, we are committed to offering the best
audio experience possible, so both game and music lovers can have the
best in desktop audio."

Razer has partnered with THX Ltd. to deliver the first desktop
multimedia system to feature THX Ground Plane(TM) and THX Slot
Speaker(TM) technologies, which bring true audio fidelity to the
desktop. Designed from the ground up to provide optimal performance on
desktop audio systems, the THX Ground Plane and Slot Speaker
technologies raise the bar for acoustic fidelity and performance in
the desktop category. The THX Certified Razer Mako will deliver sonic
presentations that are the best-in-class for any 2.1 desktop speaker
system.

"With typical desktop speakers, sound reflecting from the surface
of a desk or bookshelf reinforces or cancels direct sound from the
speaker, which can degrade the quality of music and movie
soundtracks," said Laurie Fincham, chief scientist at THX Ltd. "The
THX Ground Plane and Slot Speaker technologies allow the drive units
to be positioned very close to the desktop surface, ensuring that the
Razer Mako system reinforces the direct sound and delivers smooth,
even response at all frequencies."

-- Patented THX Ground Plane and THX Slot Speaker Technology

professional users that demand the best from their electronic
peripherals.

Sleek, streamlined and functional, the ivory white Razer
