Sony’s new party speakers have more bass, more LEDs, and more connectivity

Sony’s launch of the Ult series of party speakers, first detailed by t3.com, presents an industrial‑styled design and a sound profile described as powerful and well‑matched to the hardware. The announcement positions Sony to capture a share of the high‑energy event audio market. The devices are marketed under the Ult name, reinforcing Sony’s branding strategy.

Subsequent coverage adds context: Popular Science frames the ULT Tower as a centerpiece for upcoming raves, Gizmodo calls the output bone‑rattling, Engadget notes the ability to chain units via Sony’s Auracast system, and The Verge highlights amplified bass, integrated LED strips and expanded connectivity options. The Verge’s focus on LED integration and connectivity complements Gizmodo’s description of the output as bone‑rattling, underscoring a balance between visual flair and raw sound power. The Auracast link mentioned by Engadget provides a method for chaining devices, expanding setup options for large venues.

Current reporting confirms the speakers are available with the described features, though market response remains unreported.
