Re: SRS Labs, Inc. Amended and Restated

Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel for SRS Labs, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the SRS Labs, Inc. Amended and
Restated 1996 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "Amended 1996 Plan"). We have
examined such documents, records, and matters of law as we have deemed necessary
for purposes of this opinion, and based thereupon we are of the opinion that the
shares of the Company's common stock, $.001 par value per share (the "Common
Stock"), which are to be registered under the Registration Statement
(hereinafter defined) and that may be issued and sold pursuant to the Amended
1996 Plan will be, when issued and sold in accordance with the Amended 1996
Plan, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as Exhibit 5
to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 to be filed by the Company on or about
June 13, 1997, to effect registration of the shares of Common Stock to be issued
and sold pursuant to the Amended 1996 Plan under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Registration Statement").
Very truly yours,
/s/ Paul, Hastings, Janofsky & Walker LLP
