E3 Awards: Aureal's A3D Positional Audio Technology Captures Family PC Technology of The Year Award at E3 A3D Technology Present in Other Award-Winning Products at E3 Ceremonies FREMONT, Calif., June 2 /PRNewswire/ -- Aureal(TM) Semiconductor Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: AURL - news) today announced that the ''Aureal Semiconductor A3D Sound Processor'' won a top award at ceremonies held by Family PC Magazine at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) in Atlanta, Georgia. The award was given in the category of ''Best New Technology, Hardware.'' Family PC editors recognized Aureal's ground-breaking psychoacoustic technology -- originally developed for NASA simulations and now available to gamers -- through A3D and the Aureal Vortex 8820 processor chip. Another award-winner which includes A3D technology was the Diamond Monster Sound card, winning for ''Best Hardware Breakthrough.'' Dell Computer's XPS R400 desktop PC system won for ''Best Hardware, High-End System.'' The Dell machine includes the Turtle Beach Montego A3D sound card, also using A3D technology through the use of Aureal's Vortex 8820 sound chip. ''We've seen lots of new technologies in family computing in the last year, but Aureal's A3D is a technological breakthrough that does what many techs aspire to do, but fail to deliver on -- it changes the actual computing experience,'' said Joe Panepinto, Editor of Family PC. ''It's not a tweak to an old technology, or simple addition or twist to an existing idea, it's a breakthrough that makes computing more immersive, more fun, and remarkably different.'' ''We are honored to be recognized by such an important publication as Family PC,'' said Kip Kokinakis, Aureal's CEO. ''This award also establishes Aureal as the undisputed leader in 3D audio technology.'' Aureal's cutting edge A3D technology has been the focus of many top-notch reviews of audio products and entertainment titles. E3 vendors displayed a multitude of titles which feature A3D positional 3D audio, creating a totally immersive entertainment experience for gamers. About Aureal
