Exhibit 99.1

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE



INTRICON ADDED TO RUSSELL MICROCAP® INDEX

ST. PAUL, Minn.  July 2, 2008  IntriCon Corporation (NASDAQ: IIN), a designer, developer, manufacturer and distributor of body-worn medical and electronics devices, announced today that it has been added to the Russell Microcap® Index. Russell Investments reconstituted its family of U.S. indexes on June 27, 2008.

Membership in the Russell Microcap Index, which remains in place for one year, means automatic inclusion in the appropriate growth and value style indexes. Russell determines membership for its equity indexes primarily by objective, market-capitalization rankings and style attributes.

We believe that inclusion in the new Russell Microcap Index recognizes IntriCons solid performance as a company, said Mark Gorder, chief executive officer of IntriCon. Were leveraging our body-worn device expertise to drive top- and bottom-line growth, and the Russell Microcap Index is a great opportunity to enhance our visibility among both current and prospective investors.

Russell indexes are widely used by investment managers and institutional investors for index funds and as benchmarks for both passive and active investment strategies. An industry-leading $4.4 trillion in assets currently are benchmarked to them.

Annual reconstitution of Russell indexes captures the 4,000 largest U.S. stocks as of the end of May, ranking them by total market capitalization to create the Russell 3000® Index and Russell Microcap Index.
