Dear Ms. Dicker:

This letter is in response to the supplemented comments of the Division of Corporation Finance staff (the “Staff”) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) with respect to the above-referenced filings of Spatializer Audio Laboratories, Inc. (the “Company”) as set forth in your letter dated April 14, 2009 (the “Current Comment Letter”). This response is prepared on behalf of Jay Gottlieb, the Company’s Principal Executive Officer, and Greg Schneider, the Company’s Principal Financial Officer (“current management”), as well as the members of the Company’s Board of Directors, respectively Mr. Gottlieb, Mr. Schneider and Michael C. Pearce (the “Board”).

As discussed with undersigned outside counsel, Carl N. Duncan, current and former management consummated acquisition transactions shortly after a March 31, 2008 filing with the Commission of its Form 10-K Annual Report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 (the “Annual Report”). In connection with those April 2008 transactions (as described in more detail in our January 26, 2009 response letter), the Company experienced a change of control and the Company's prior sole officer, who prepared and signed the Annual Report, resigned.

In that context, the Company and its current management hereby responds to each of the Staff’s outstanding Comments. For the convenience of the Staff, we have reproduced the Staff’s comments from the Current Comment Letter in Italics. The responses to those Comments immediately follow the reproduced Staff comments. In addition to submitting this letter simultaneously herewith, we are sending you via messenger two (2) copies of this letter being filed overnight as Correspondence on EDGAR. The supplemental material referred to herein (the associated Form 10-K/A Annual Report and Forms 10-Q/A Quarterly Reports) is being filed concurrently on EDGAR.

We note from page 8 of your draft amendment that you continue to report “revenues,” “cost of revenues,” “gross profit,” etc. from continuing operations for each reporting period presented within your selected financial data. Even though you added the line items entitled “loss from continuing operations” and “gain(loss) from discontinued operations” within your selected financial data table for each reporting period presented, it does not appear that you have revised your statement of operation information reported within this table for each reporting period presented to reflect the sale of your assets to DTS, Inc. in fiscal 2007 as discontinued operations in accordance with paragraph 43 of SFAS 144. Additionally, it does not appear that the selected financial data agrees to your audited financial statements on page 19 of your draft amendment. Please revise or advise.

Response to Comment 1: The presentation of selected financial data has been expanded to clarify which line items relate to continuing and discontinued operations, as indicated on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and in Note 11.

Please revise or advise.
