AI Calibration enables the speakers to detect their surroundings and optimize sound, ensuring clear, powerful audio in any environment. Users can also enhance their audio experience with the on-device LE Audio Auracast™ feature which connects multiple xboom units for a synchronized audio output.
Additionally, for the first time ever, LG xboom speakers will feature a dedicated button that allows users to instantly connect to will.i.am’s RAiDiO.FYI platform.
