By John Kasha, Chief Executive Officer of KAI Technology Inc. We all hear sound differently. Maybe it's background noise, or just enjoying the artist's creativity either with their instruments or voice. Sometimes, we struggle to hear some- thing creative in the mix we like and raise the volume up to hear it, but it doesn't help. Introducing the m.e.™, a small device that boosts, expands and takes your listening experience to a whole new dimension in sound. Here's how it works. The m.e. brings all the hidden details of a song to life so you can hear everything. It's like being in the recording studio. It's an immersive experience. You really feel like you are actually there, on stage, with the musicians. The m.e. gives your music depth, dimension and definition making your listening experience the best it can be. For example, you're listening to a great song you have heard hundreds of times, but since the instruments or back- ground vocals have been compromised for MP3, you don't even realize you are missing out on half the music. m.e. revives your music so you now hear more of the song's original arrangements. Instruments suddenly appear in the mix, vocals pop, the music sounds alive. m.e. can be used on every piece of audio equipment in your life. From head- sets to car stereos, home entertainment to in-flight infotainment, the m.e. will change the way you hear sound forever. For more information, go to www .getmeaudio.com.
