Dual Action Bass for a Richer, More Harmonious Audio Experience <\/strong><\/p>\n

With Meridian\u2019s advanced audio technology, XBOOM Go speakers deliver clear treble and strong bass as well as exceptionally powerful, accurate sound despite their compact sizes. The outstanding sound quality of the portable speakers is enhanced by their dual passive radiators. These act like mini bass drivers; with the Enhanced Bass technology, these speakers sound much larger and more substantial. Play music with a strong bass line on the speakers, use Enhanced Bass, turn up the volume and be moved by the clear and sonorous sound.<\/p>\n

Crisp and Clear Vocals at Any Volume<\/strong><\/p>\n

Working with Meridian, LG has designed the sounds of the XBOOM Go speakers to be exceptionally balanced so that the treble and bass do not overwhelm each other. Furthermore, the Clear Vocal mode in the PK5 and PK7 models<\/strong><\/span> enables the mid or vocal range to be clear and crisp at any volume. Additionally, the PK7 feature dual tweeters<\/strong><\/span>, which make the singing parts sound more natural as well as add enhanced clarity to the instrumentals.<\/p>\n

High-definition Bluetooth Streaming for Lossless Music <\/strong><\/p>\n

The XBOOM Go series features the first wireless speakers to support aptX\u2122 HD from Qualcomm for superb lossless 24bit\/576kbps hi-res streaming audio. This will satisfy the needs of highly demanding audiophiles who are sensitive to loss of fidelity during Bluetooth streaming. Also, these Bluetooth streaming methods allow better audio transmission with less noise in the signal. LG has incorporated the aptX\u2122into the PK3<\/strong><\/span> and aptX\u2122 HD into the PK5 and PK7<\/span><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Voice Commands to Play Your Favorite Tunes<\/strong><\/p>\n

To activate it, simply connect a smartphone to the speaker, press the voice button on the speaker and command it to play a track or even ask a question.<\/p>\n

Turn Any Place into a Party Location with the Speakers\u2019 Built-in Lighting<\/strong><\/p>\n

The PK5 and PK7 both have built-in lighting<\/strong><\/span> that can pulse in multiple colors to the beat, and hence turn any space into a dancefloor. The Bluetooth Application allows users to set the lights any way they want. Tap the screen to the beat and the lights will flash in tandem with the rhythmic taps. In addition, the PK7 features dual sparkle stripsabove and below the drivers.<\/strong><\/span> These multi-colored sparkle strips emit captivating illumination. From parks to beaches, function rooms to living halls, any space can now become a party location.<\/p>\n
