ENGLEWOOD CLIFFS, N.J., Dec. 31, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — LG Electronics, in collaboration with global innovator will.i.am, is set to unveil an expanded lineup of its xboom audio products at CES 2026. Building on the success of the previous year’s models, including the Stage 301 and the original Bounce and Grab, the new collection features four models designed for both indoor parties and outdoor adventures. The lineup emphasizes powerful sound combined with AI-driven personalization and versatile designs, aiming to transform how users experience audio.
The new xboom speakers, including the Stage 501, Blast, Mini, and Rock, integrate advanced technology aimed at personalizing the listening experience. They promise a well-balanced signature sound with rich bass, enhanced by the FYI.RAiDiO system, which allows users to interact with ten AI personas and DJs via two-way conversations. The MY Button or FYI.RAiDiO app enables real-time curation and location-aware personalization, adapting to varied contexts and moments.
The xboom Stage 501 stands out as a party-focused model, featuring an AI Karaoke Master that can manipulate vocals from over 10,000 songs, allowing users to sing along without needing special files or subscriptions. With a robust battery offering up to 25 hours of playback and a powerful output of 220W when plugged in, the Stage 501 is designed for sustained musical enjoyment. Its unique five-sided cabinet design allows for multiple configurations—vertical, horizontal, tilted, or tripod-mounted—while dual woofers and Peerless tweeters ensure vibrant sound quality.
For outdoor enthusiasts, the xboom Blast offers exceptional durability and battery life, providing up to 35 hours of playback and 220W output. Its rugged design includes edge bumpers and military-standard durability testing, making it suitable for adventurous outings. The speaker also features passive radiators to enhance sound dispersion, and its thoughtful side rope handle enables easier navigation in crowded spaces.
The xboom Mini is aimed at users seeking versatility in a compact form. This speaker delivers up to 10 hours of playback, making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor settings. Despite its small size, the Mini offers clear sound with Sound Field Enhance technology, while its IP67 water and dust resistance ensures reliability in diverse environments. The speaker’s cube design, along with a built-in tripod mount, enhances its practicality for various listening scenarios.
Completing the lineup, the xboom Rock is designed for rugged adventures, ensuring reliability through rigorous military standard testing. It also offers up to 10 hours of playback and enhanced audio performance, with a power output of 6W. The Rock features Sound Field Enhance for expansive audio quality and supports LE Audio Auracast, allowing for easy music sharing across multiple speakers. Its smart button enables quick app control, making the Rock a suitable companion for outdoor excursions.
“We are turning sound into a living, learning experience,” said will.i.am, highlighting the innovative integration of AI technology in the xboom speakers. “These enhancements will bring people closer and connect through a shared passion for music and creativity.” Lee Jeong-seok, head of LG’s Media Entertainment Solution Company’s Audio Business, emphasized the ongoing collaboration with will.i.am to further their vision of intelligent sound solutions.
The expanded xboom product line will be showcased at CES 2026, taking place from January 6 to 9 at the Las Vegas Convention Center, booth #15004.
