SALT LAKE CITY, July 30, 2009 -- ClearOne (http://www.clearone.com) (NASDAQ: CLRO), the leading global provider of high performance audio conferencing solutions, was recently named Best New Audioconferencing Product for its MAX IP Conference Phone. The recognition came as part of the rAVe 2009 Best of InfoComm Awards from rAVe ProAV Edition.

MAX IP conferencing phones bring unrivaled audio clarity and room coverage to organizations with SIP-based VoIP phone systems. MAX IP is unique in the conferencing industry, providing the ability to daisy-chain multiple phones together. With MAXAttach IP, users can connect up to four phones, providing multiple speakers, microphones, and dial pads, distributed throughout the room for much better audio coverage, control and flexibility. MAX IP is completely full-duplex and contains HDConference™, the suite of high-performance audio technologies found in ClearOne's professional conferencing systems, including Distributed Echo Cancellation™, noise reduction, first microphone priority, automatic gain and level controls, and ClearEffect™.

"We are pleased that rAVe has recognized the MAX IP as one of the best products at InfoComm 2009," said Mark Child, Director of Product Marketing – Telephony, at ClearOne. "MAX IP is the industry's first fully expandable tabletop conference phone, allowing users to daisy-chain up to four complete phones together for long or u-shaped conference tables. We welcome the award from rAVe as it confirms not only the quality of our phone but also the increasing trend towards high definition audio products for VoIP."

rAVe is a newsletter and website dedicated to the AV industry. The editors and publishers of rAVe eagerly tout the fact that they not only report the news and new product stories of the ProAV industry, but they fill the articles with their opinions. The editors do not allow manufacturers to submit products to be considered for this award and keep the names of the award winners a secret until the news is released. In the July 23rd issue of the newsletter, Gary Kayye, CTS at rAVE, said, "The rAVe Best of InfoComm Awards come from us - rAVe. rAVe has, since it's inception, CLEARLY stated our position: We are biased. We call it like we see it. If we like something, we write about it. If we don't, we will either tell you we don't or not write about it at all."
