SLS Loudspeakers (www.slsloudspeakers.com) and Quincy Jones—producer, musician, arranger, composer, and Grammy, Academy, and Emmy Award winner—have entered into an agreement to develop a new line of home-theater products.

Jones, who’s known in the music and film industry as “Q,” will codevelop a new line of high-quality home theater and entertainment products for global markets under the name The Q Line.

The Q Line will combine SLS’s proprietary ribbon driver technology with Jones’s innovative design for optimum sound. Future Q Line products may also incorporate SLS’s patented Evenstar digital amplifier technology.

Q Line products, which include headphones, will be targeted for distribution in mass-market retail outlets around the world with an expected launch date of fourth-quarter 2004.

“Technology has always enriched my life and empowered me,” says Jones. “SLS is in that tradition. They’ve come up with a technology that should change our industry. Their speakers deliver sound in its most natural form and at a very affordable price. This breakthrough can be compared to the evolution of sound from mono to stereo. I’m excited to be involved in its future.”

“Having Quincy Jones recognize our technology and agree to partner with SLS International to develop and market our new line of products is a major step for establishing brand awareness and credibility in the consumer marketplace,” says John Gott, SLS International’s chief executive officer. “Quincy is world renowned as the master of sound, and I have always felt that if he became involved with our company, we could become the leader in our industry.”
