GLOBAL GAMING AUDIO LEADER TURTLE BEACH LAUNCHES INTO PC GAMING WITH THREE ALL-NEW ATLAS GAMING HEADSETS – NOW AVAILABLE AT NORDIC RETAIL

October 1, 2018• Uncategorized

Turtle Beach’s New Atlas Line is Built for PC Gamers, Featuring Three Models, including the Pro-Level Elite Atlas, the Powerful Amplified Atlas Three, and the Versatile Atlas One

The Nordics – Oct. 1, 2018 – Leading gaming headset and audio accessory brand Turtle Beach (NASDAQ: HEAR) officially enters the PC gaming headset market with today’s announcement that the company’s all-new Atlas line of headsets built for PC is now available at participating retailers worldwide. Designed in collaboration with leading esports teams, including Astralis, OpTic Gaming, and the Houston Outlaws, Turtle Beach’s Atlas line features three different models, including the Elite Atlas Pro Performance PC Gaming Headset, the powerful Atlas Three Amplified PC Gaming Headset, and the versatile Atlas One PC Gaming Headset. Each Atlas headset offers PC gamers an innovative set of features and functionality. Read below for full details of each Atlas PC gaming headset.

“We worked with some of the best pro gamers in the world to make sure our new Atlas line delivers PC gamers the superior audio performance and comfort Turtle Beach is known for,” said Juergen Stark, CEO, Turtle Beach. “Turtle Beach’s success is rooted in our ability to innovate and offer a broad portfolio of products designed for all types of gamers, from professional competitive esports athletes to those just getting into gaming, and that’s what we’re now bringing to the PC market with our Atlas headsets. We knew we needed more than just a single offering, so we built the Atlas lineup to cater to the various types of PC gamers out there – whether they’re shopping based on specific features or budget.”

Stark continued, “The Elite Atlas is built for pro players, aspiring pros, and hardcore gamers. The Atlas Three offers PC gamers an option with amplified audio and is based on our best-selling Stealth 600 headset design. And the Atlas One is a great everyday PC gaming headset that delivers premium sound, comfort, and multiplatform compatibility at a great price.”

 When designing the new Atlas line, Turtle Beach worked closely with top esports teams to fully understand the needs of elite esports athletes, and to ensure the Atlas headsets deliver on PC gamers’ expectations. After all, esports teams know a thing or two about what it takes to perform at the highest levels of play, whether practicing or competing on the tournament stage. In fact, Astralis just won the FACEIT London 2018 CS:GO Major Championship that took place on Sept. 23, 2018, with a follow-up performance as the winner of the CS:GO Blast Pro Series Istanbul tournament which took place this past weekend.

“In Counter-Strike, sound and communication are essential. There is no room for mistakes, and being able to recognize the sound of footsteps, weapon type, and other audio details just a millisecond before your opponent makes a huge difference,” said Peter ‘dupreeh’ Rasmussen. “If you want to be the best, you want your equipment to be second to none – the difference between a good and a great headset can be the difference between winning and losing a grand final. So, it’s been very rewarding working with the team at Turtle Beach to help them ensure the Atlas headsets provide top-tier audio performance for all PC gamers.”

Below are full details on Turtle Beach’s three new Atlas gaming headsets built for PC.

MASTER & DYNAMIC BRINGS ELEVATED DESIGN AND MATERIALS TO A NEW CATEGORY WITH THE MW07 TRUE WIRELESS EARPHONES

September 13, 2018• Uncategorized

Debuting for the first time ever handcrafted acetate and stainless steel, the MW07 True Wireless Earphones demonstrate unparalleled sound quality and design

Since launching in 2014, New York City-based premium audio company Master & Dynamic has focused on offering the most beautifully appointed, sonically sophisticated audio products on the market. Today, Master & Dynamic proudly redefines the rapidly expanding true wireless earphone sector with the release of the MW07 True Wireless Earphones. Available in four initial colorways, Tortoiseshell, Steel Blue, Grey Terrazzo, and Matte Black, each pair of MW07’s is accompanied by an elegant stainless steel charging case. Featuring premium materials such as handcrafted acetate and stainless steel as well as 10mm Beryllium drivers, the MW07 demonstrates that high tech can also be high design. Two patent-pending technologies ensure best-in-class Bluetooth 4.2 connectivity, superior comfort and personalized fit. This is all accomplished in a slim, close to the ear form factor. 

As with all Master & Dynamic products, the materials for the MW07 have been carefully curated. Handcrafted acetate, created through time-honored craftsmanship dating back to the 1800s and widely used in luxury sunglasses and eyewear, allows each individual earphone to be uniquely eye-catching, lightweight and incredibly durable. PVD-coated stainless steel is used for both the acoustic enclosures housing dynamic 10mm beryllium drivers to produce Master & Dynamic’s signature sound, as well as the control buttons on each earphone that provide a sleek user interface.

Custom 10mm beryllium drivers, a metal traditionally used only in hi-fi products, provide exceptional acoustics and deliver a rich, warm, expansive sound. Optical sensors detect in-ear placement so that the sound is both played and paused when the earphones are placed in and removed from the user’s ears. An innovative, detachable silicone “fit wing,” which comes in two sizes, along with five ear tip sizes, ensure the earphones can be comfortably and securely fitted to any ear. Placing the MW07 in the ear is remarkably easy, simply requiring a one-gesture placement from case to ear.

 “Our goal is to offer the best of both superior sound and sophisticated design to our customers,” said Master & Dynamic’s Founder and CEO Jonathan Levine. “With the launch of the MW07, we’ve not only improved the user experience, but we’ve selected premium materials to take true wireless earphones into uncharted territory.” 

To further blend form and function, the MW07 True Wireless Earphones are also at the forefront of mobility, providing up to 14 hours of on-the-go listening. The earphones themselves hold 3.5 hours of battery life when fully charged, while the elegant hand-polished stainless-steel charging case holds an additional 10.5 hours of listening time and can be charged to 50% in just 15-minutes via USB-C cable, making the MW07 the ultimate travel and communication tool.

Takket være legen, fastholder Sophie og Julien forbindelsen gennem deres voksenliv. Selvom deres virkeligheder er meget forskellige, har legen stor indflydelse på deres gøren.

GLOBAL GAMING AUDIO LEADER TURTLE BEACH UNVEILS PLANS FOR PC GAMING MARKET EXPANSION WITH ALL-NEW ATLAS LINE OF HEADSETS

August 20, 2018• Uncategorized

Designed in Collaboration with the World’s Leading Esports Teams, Turtle Beach’s New Atlas Line Features Three New Models Built for PC Gamers, including the Pro-Level Elite Atlas, Amplified Atlas Three and Atlas One

The Nordics – August, 2018 – Turtle Beach (NASDAQ: HEAR), a global leader in gaming audio, revealed plans for expanding the company’s portfolio of high-quality, award-winning gaming headsets with a focus on the PC market. Designed in collaboration with leading esports teams, including Astralis, OpTic Gaming, and the Houston Outlaws, Turtle Beach’s Atlas line is built for PC gamers and features three different models – the Elite Atlas Pro Performance Gaming Headset, the powerful Atlas Three Amplified PC Gaming Headset, and the Atlas One PC Gaming Headset. Furthering Turtle Beach’s commitment to designing headsets for all gamers, each Atlas product offers PC players an innovative set of features, functionality and pricing, starting with the Elite Atlas with a MSRP of €99.99, and the Atlas Three and Atlas One with MSRPs of €79.99 and €49.99, respectively. All three Atlas gaming headsets are available for pre-order at participating retailers starting today and are planned to launch at the end of September 2018. Read below for full details of each Atlas PC gaming headset. 

“Turtle Beach is a leading gaming audio brand because we constantly innovate to design high-quality headsets with features that gamers want, so we’re clearly excited to extend our portfolio with the Atlas products for PC gamers,” said Juergen Stark, CEO, Turtle Beach Corporation. “This expansion is a great move for us because in addition to our already strong performance in console gaming headsets, we’ll now have the ability to attract both dedicated and cross-platform PC gamers through our new Atlas lineup.”

Turtle Beach has been a consistent market leader in console gaming headsets, currently with 45.5% revenue share year-to-date through June 2018 (per NPD’s latest U.S. and Canada console gaming headset update) and has held over 40% market share for the past nine consecutive years, current year-to-date included. However, Turtle Beach is no stranger to the PC market, as the company was a pioneering force through the early days of PC audio, with products including the first midi synthesizers and a variety of PC sound cards in the 1980s and 90s. Since then, the company has evolved with the times, and in 2005 Turtle Beach launched the first ever console gaming headset, setting out to become the leading gaming audio brand it is today, thanks to its continued efforts in innovation, broad product catalog, and strong retail partnerships and distribution channels. During that time, Turtle Beach has created a handful of well-received PC gaming headsets, but the company’s core focus has primarily been on the console business, until now.

Stark continued, “When we set out on the path to grow our presence in PC, it included conducting consumer research and working with our partners on key design elements, resulting in what we believe is a great first assortment of PC headsets. Each Atlas headset – whether at the €50, €80, or €100 price point – offers PC gamers the audio performance and comfort Turtle Beach is known for. Moving forward we intend to leverage our technology, innovation, and best practices, to continue leading the console gaming headset business through our Recon, Stealth and Elite products, with equal focus and energy behind our new Atlas line that’s built for PC gamers.”

“As a player and as a team, it’s a privilege to have worked with Turtle Beach in the making of the Elite Atlas and the rest of their new Atlas line,” said Nicolai “dev1ce” Reedtz of Astralis. “We tested and provided a lot of feedback and suggestions during the development process in an effort to ensure the Elite Atlas is the best possible headset for PC esports pros, but also for any PC gamers. We’re excited to be a part of the whole process and can’t wait until gamers can get Turtle Beach’s Atlas headsets.”

 “The continued rise of esports has put tremendous pressure on organizations to deliver exceptionally high audio quality,” said Ryan Musselman, SVP of Global Partnerships, Infinite Esports & Entertainment. “Turtle Beach continues to deliver pro-level audio for the competitive gamer, and the Atlas PC headsets provide a reliable lineup of top-tier audio performance for the aspiring, established, and experienced esports athlete.”

Additionally, fans attending gamescom, PAX West and Dreamhack Montreal will have the opportunity to be some of the first gamers in the world to try out the Elite Atlas before it hits retail shelves. Gamescom opens its doors August 21-25, 2018 in Cologne, Germany and PAX West takes place August 31 – September 3, 2018 in Seattle, Washington where Turtle Beach will have a booth where players can go head-to-head playing the latest games using Turtle Beach’s latest gear. Dreamhack takes place in Montreal, Canada September 7-9, 2018, and Turtle Beach will be outfitting the show’s entire PC Freeplay area with the Elite Atlas where attendees will be able to experience the headset’s professional-quality game audio, crystal clear chat, and unmatched comfort.

The Turtle Beach® Elite Atlas sets a new benchmark for esports audio on PC.

Audio performance centers around the Elite Atlas’ pro-tuned 50mm Nanoclear™ speakers that deliver immersive Windows Sonic for Headphones2 surround sound, and the removable high-sensitivity mic with TruSpeak™ technology for flawless communication with teammates. Finally, the Elite Atlas goes wherever gaming takes you with included 3.5mm and PC-splitter cables that connect to any PC setup.

DIGITAL ENTERTAINMENT GROUP EUROPE REFRESHES BOARD, BROADENS REMIT WITH ADDITION OF NORDIC COMMITTEE

August 1, 2018• Uncategorized

Danmark – 2018-07-31 The Digital Entertainment Group Europe (DEGE) today confirmed a new line-up for its Board of Directors as well as announcing that it has formalized the implementation of the DEG Nordic Committee, which has been created to support the growth of the digital entertainment market in that territory.

Assuming the role of co-chair for the DEGE will be Warner Bros Home Entertainment Group’s Vice President and Director of Sales, Doug Fox alongside the incumbent Nicola Pearcey, Lionsgate UK’s President of Distribution. The new line-up will be further supported by Amy Jo Smith, President & CEO of influential sister organization DEG: The Digital Entertainment Group, who will also be acting as an officer to the refreshed DEGE board.

Speaking about his appointment as co-chair, Doug Fox said: “Warner Bros has been an active partner of the DEGE for a long time now and we have watched the organization grow in both stature and output to the point that it now acts as an arbiter of cross-territory impetus and direction. I am excited to take my seat on the DEGE Board as co-chair and look forward to further shaping the conversation around collaborative best practice and driving the aims of the organization forward to the benefit of all its members.”

Nicola Pearcey added: “The DEGE has worked hard to deepen its involvement across territories and to the benefit of our local businesses. The fact that we are now able to welcome Warner Bros to the top table with Doug Fox as our new co-chair lends credence to that, and is further evidenced by the fact that Amy Jo will also be joining as supporting officer. This underlines and strengthens the dotted line the DEGE has to the States and, that this is happening just as we also broaden our remit to also include the Nordic region is both symbolic and symptomatic of the organization’s relevance and ambition.”

After many years of service, Jonathan Beardsworth, Vice President Sales & Marketing at Technicolor has stepped down from the board of the DEGE.

The DEG Nordic Committee will operate as a hub for the exploration, funding and execution of projects designed to drive consumer engagement with digital transaction in a region that boasts some of the most advanced digital infrastructure in the world*, with the DEGE providing the committee with a robust structure of corporate governance to meet compliance and competition requirements as applicable to cross-industry collaboration aimed at maximising opportunities for growth.

*See report from Cable.co.uk https://www.cable.co.uk/broadband/research/worldwide-broadband-speed-league-2018/

The DEGE will also provide the framework for project development to assist the committee, with confirmed activity to include the development of a local digital sales tracker with GfK and the development and execution of an education-based campaign to promote digital consumption of entertainment titles to consumers. Future projects will also be considered by the Nordic Committee board as it develops.

The committee consists of representatives from NBCUniversal, Nordisk Film, SF Studios, Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment, Warner Bros Home Entertainment Group and The Walt Disney Company, with Sony Pictures Home Entertainment participating through its membership to the British Association for Screen Entertainment as part of the UK trade body’s shared services agreement with the DEGE. That agreement will also see BASE act to facilitate the Nordic Committee across all aforementioned areas of governance and project development.

Peter Paumgardhen, Managing Director of Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment Scandinavia will chair the committee, with Johan Mannerhill, Managing Director of Warner Bros Home Entertainment Group Scandinavia and Adrian Mandrup, Nordisk Film’s President of Nordic Sales – Digital, Home Entertainment, TV & Consumer, jointly acting as deputy chair. Paumgardhen will also take a seat on the DEGE board to provide a direct route to report on the new committee’s progress.

Speaking of his appointment, Paumgardhen said: “My colleagues and I have been watching with interest as the DEGE has increasingly and proactively driven the conversation around championing the home entertainment category. Through the delivery of actionable insight, and by ensuring a clarity of collaboration and communication across a range of issues, the organization has added clear value and so it was a very easy decision to work with the DEGE Board, and to take my place on it, to develop and steer the Nordic Committee. I’m excited to move to the next phase and bring some of that admirable ethos to local businesses.”

The DEGE is registered in the UK with a remit that includes the promotion of best practise across European territories and assisting in the localization and execution of successful global initiatives. The newly created Nordic Committee will sit alongside the existing DEGE Digital Subgroup (which exists as a hub for sharing and developing best-practice promotional activity to drive the digital transactional market), with both groups feeding into and benefiting from the DEGE’s direct route to the Digital Entertainment Group.
