January 15, 2010 - Atlanta, GA – Hybrid Audio Technologies Inc. announces its Fiscal Year 2009 growth.

Since its inception in July 2005, Hybrid Audio Technologies has quickly become known as one of the most formidable car audio speaker system manufacturers in the world. Beyond producing the finest car audio speaker systems available today, the Company is known for its innovative dealer programs, guaranteed lifetime product value, and winning more sound quality championships in North America for the past five straight years than any other manufacturer.

Despite the gloomy economic climate, Hybrid Audio Technologies Inc., a State of Georgia Corporation, continues to show strong growth in the mid- to high-end car audio speaker system category. Today, Hybrid Audio Technologies is pleased to announce a Fiscal Year 2009 growth rate of 43.7% over Fiscal Year 2008 revenue. The growth was predominantly noted in the domestic USA dealer base, with several exceptional dealers signing on, and opting to replace other brands in favor of Hybrid Audio Technologies products in their retail stores. Dealers noted the exceptional performance of Hybrid Audio Technologies products at their respective price points, ease of installation, dealer technical support and client referrals, as well as the enthusiastic response by clientele to the lifetime guaranteed value and trade-up programs offered by the Company. In addition to the strong domestic USA growth, international trade was up significantly as well, with new Hybrid Audio Technologies distribution portals established in the European Union, Mexico, Brazil, Philippines, and Malaysia.

Scott E. Buwalda, CEO of Hybrid Audio Technologies noted “naturally, we are elated with the growth in 2009. Dealers are beginning to see the value in a truly protected brand that is innovative, looks and sounds great, is easy to sell, and that is not sold on the internet at prices just above dealer cost. It sends a message that Dealers are sick and tired of the race to zero, and furthermore, that retail clients want something more than status quo products.”

Hybrid Audio Technologies is an Atlanta, GA-based mid- to high-end speaker manufacturer. Hybrid Audio Technologies manufactures four product lines, from our budget-friendly Imagine line which retails below $250.00/two-way set, to our Clarus, Legatia, and Legatia Pro lines.
