It has been a few years since Ultimate Ears has introduced a new product, and now they make a splash with EPICBOOM.
Made of 100% post-consumer recycled polyester fabric and a minimum of 59% post-consumer recycled plastic, EPICBOOM showcases an all-new, innovative, oval design that makes loud, 360° bassy sound more portable, unleashing an unexpectedly big sound for its size.
“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.”
Designed for big sound, built for 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.
Product features
EPICBOOM is available in two sleek colourways: 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 metres. Instead of a fussy manual setup, 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.
All-new BOOM app
Through the BOOM app, which is updated as of today, you can choose between different preset EQs including Signature, Bass Boost, Game/Cinema, Podcast/Vocal, and the all-new Deep Relaxation mode. You can also customise the mids, highs, and lows of the sound based on your personal preferences. These modes optimise sound for solo and group activities including yoga, meditation, parties, beach days, and more. The fan-favourite 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.
