LG has expanded its xBoom speaker lineup with three new models—Stage 501, Blast, and Mini—all featuring advanced AI capabilities. These speakers are part of an ongoing collaboration with will.i.am from the Black Eyed Peas, who serves as the ‘experimental architect’ involved in development, design, and brand marketing. The new lineup is now available, bringing intelligent audio tuning and ambient lighting to portable speakers.
AI-Driven Audio and Lighting
Each xBoom speaker includes an algorithm that automatically adjusts the EQ after analyzing the audio content and the listening environment. Many models also feature an AI algorithm for ambient lighting that synchronizes with the music being played. This integration enhances the listening experience by adapting sound and visuals in real time.
