Logitech has announced that Ultimate Ears’s EPICBOOM is now available for purchase in the United States, Europe, and Asia Pacific for USD $349.99 (€379.99, GBP £339.99). Made of 100% post-consumer recycled polyester fabric and a minimum of 59% post-consumer recycled plastic, this is a new portable Bluetooth speaker from Logitech’s audio brand that packs high-fidelity sound in a compact design, featuring a 4.6-inch woofer, IP67 rating, and internal microphone for dynamically adjusting EQ. Battery life is advertised as being 17 hours.
“We design our products with our customers and their lifestyles in mind,” said Jonah Staw, general manager of Ultimate Ears. “Customers want huge sound in a conveniently portable package and that’s what we have delivered with EPICBOOM. This speaker boasts our signature Ultimate Ears high-fidelity sound while delivering plenty of volume. We’re excited to add EPICBOOM to our product portfolio. This speaker will no doubt be a part of life’s epic moments.”
EPICBOOM’s oval design creates an impressive internal acoustic volume, and is coupled with a 4.6” woofer for bass clarity and immersive sound. With an IP67 rating, EPICBOOM is waterproof, dustproof, and floatable, making it the perfect companion for epic moments at home and outdoors. When you want to move a party from indoors to outdoors, EPICBOOM’s internal microphone dynamically adjusts EQ and balances the sound accordingly, so you never miss a beat.
EPICBOOM is available in two sleek colorways: Cotton White + Lipstick Red and Charcoal Black + Lime. The speaker allows for up to 17 hours of playtime and has a Bluetooth range of 55 meters. Instead of a fussy manual set-up, the speaker has a one-touch NFC feature available for NFC-compatible smartphones with Android 8.0 or later. The sensor establishes a Bluetooth shortcut that allows users to simply power on, pair, connect, and play, also making it easy to switch between multiple people’s playlists within seconds. Additional EPICBOOM features include an LED battery indicator and a USB-C connector.
Through the BOOM app, which is updated as of today, you can choose between different pre-set EQs including Signature, Bass Boost, Game/Cinema, Podcast/Vocal, and the all-new Deep Relaxation mode. You can also customize the mids, highs, and lows of the sound based on your personal preferences. These modes optimize sound for solo and group activities including yoga, meditation, parties, beach days, and more. The fan-favorite feature on the BOOM app, PartyUp, lets you pair multiple Ultimate Ears speakers together so you can kick your parties up a notch. Wirelessly connect EPICBOOM, BOOM, BOOM 2, BOOM 3, MEGABOOM, MEGABOOM 3 and HYPERBOOM speakers for the ultimate sound experience. And to get the party going in larger spaces, Outdoor Boost cranks up the bass even further.
