with other U.S. campuses following suit —

123rd AES CONVENTION, NEW YORK, NY, October 5, 2007 — SAE Institute, the world leader in pro audio and multimedia education for over 30 years, announces its latest educational initiative, which will equip all newly enrolled U.S. students with a pair of ULTRASONE HFI-550 professional headphones. These advanced headphones, which feature ULTRASONE‘s S-Logic™ Natural Surround Sound System, will allow students enrolled in SAE Institute’s Audio Technology Program to monitor their coursework at a fully professional level, vastly enhancing their educational experience as well as providing a consistent headphone monitoring environment throughout the class. All newly enrolling students in SAE’s Audio Technology Program will receive a pair of the HFI-550 headphones, along with the other technology platforms provided by SAE, including an Apple MacBook, M-Audio MobilePre, Pro Tools Academic and BIAS Peak LE. This technology complement is included in the cost of tuition and is part of SAE’s ongoing technology initiative that strives to make its students better prepared to learn real-world audio techniques while in school and build stronger, more lucrative careers upon graduation.

In addition, the newly opened SAE Atlanta campus is already completely outfitted with the
HFI-550 headphones, and the other four SAE campuses, in New York, Los Angeles, Miami and Nashville, will do the same in coming months. Furthermore, SAE students can purchase additional ULTRASONE products at special academic pricing via SAE’s Student Discount Portal (http://www.sae-usa.com/stud_offer.php).

The HFI-550 headphone offers precise and detailed instrument placement, with tight powerful bass, depth and dimension, all with an impressive power spectrum. The HFI-550’s S-Logic™ technology allows for effective listening to take place at significantly lower levels, reducing sound pressure levels to the eardrum by up to 40 percent.

Commenting on SAE’s ongoing student technology integration, Tom Misner, SAE Institute’s Founder and CEO, stated, “It is our goal to supply our students with the crucial building blocks of today’s state-of-the-art technology from manufacturers that understand the importance of SAE’s educational experience. The ability to monitor critically and accurately is crucial to the learning experience in audio production. So now SAE students have yet another advantage in that regard.
