The multi award-winning UE
BOOM by Ultimate Ears has helped transform how you experience music
out in the world, and today UE announced its next step in evolving the
way you enjoy music. Teaming with semiconductor company CSR
pIc, UE is delivering enhanced connectivity to its existing and
future users, allowing you to connect more than 10 of its popular UE
BOOM and/or new UE
MEGABOOM speakers together at once. The feature is expected to be
available in Summer 2015 and is being demoed this week at the 2015
International CES® in Las Vegas, Nev.
“Our mission is to transform the way people experience their music,
together, out in the world,” said Rory Dooley, general manager of
Ultimate Ears. “That’s why, on top of a design that looks and sounds
great, and can go anywhere, we designed these speakers to frequently
update with new features. We are committed to helping you fit your music
into your lifestyle, and all the features we’ve introduced – and plan to
introduce – are available to anyone, no matter when you purchased your
speaker, and come together to give you a mobile music experience like no
other.”
Since 2013, UE has been pushing the mobile speaker category forward with
industry-first features delivered as software updates available to every
speaker purchased since the launch of UE BOOM, including Double Up,
alarm functionality and remote On/Off. UE is also the first to introduce
over-the-air updates for Bluetooth® speakers, making updating your
speaker easier than ever before. Now, UE is giving you an easy way to
create an even bigger ad hoc speaker system anywhere you want, whether
camping with friends, throwing an impromptu party on campus or hitting
the ski slopes.
“As an industry pioneer for Bluetooth streaming audio, CSR has been
continuously pushing every boundary to deliver high quality wireless
audio along with innovative features that can transform the consumer
experience,” said Anthony Murray, SVP Business Group for CSR. "The
multi-share speaker technology that we have developed enables consumers
to truly unleash their audio in ways never before possible, and we're
delighted to collaborate with Ultimate Ears to unveil the demo
experience of our technology.”
To take advantage of the new feature once it’s available, simply
download the free app for iOS® or Android™ for your respective speaker,
open it and upgrade your speaker’s software in the settings menu.
