LG Launches New UltraGear GP9 Gaming Speaker With Integrated Microphone
Of course, there’s RGB lighting.
Continuing to expand on its premium gaming products through the UltraGear line, South Korean tech company LG has now launched a new UltraGear GP9 gaming speaker designed for those who want to retain an immersive gaming experience while taking a break from their headphones.
Designed to be a standalone unit, the GP9 carries 3D Gaming Sound technology to provide 7.1 virtual surround sound. The speakers are Hi-Res Audio certified to make sure you’re getting the clearest sound, while its Game Genre Optimizer allows you to switch between a first-person shooter mode and a real-time strategy mode, adjusting the speakers according to your gaming needs. The ES9038PRO Hi-Fi Quad DAC inside provides more balanced sound while reducing noise, and a built-in battery can provide a playtime of roughly five hours on a single use. Rounding out the speakers are various input ports including USB-C, AUX, Bluetooth connectivity and an optical port.
For those interested, LG’s UltraGear GP9 gaming speaker will be available in September for roughly $470 USD.
Elsewhere in gaming gear, Sony’s newly revised PlayStation 5 carries a significantly smaller heatsink.
