Amplify Your Summer with Ultimate Ears MEGABLAST and BLAST Portable Speakers

Summer is half order but there is still plenty of time to enjoy summer as Ultimate Ears announced new updates for MEGABLAST and BLAST portable speakers to help them get smarter and better over time. There is nothing that beats great sound especially when you are poolside, hanging outside or just relaxing indoors. Look at some of the new experiences for MEGABLAST and BLAST include:

• Enhanced controls on the Ultimate Ears app: Now you can control volume remotely from the app! If you are an app driven junky like many of us, this is especially useful if you have your music cranked up loud and want to use Alexa. You can also check battery status in two ways, either through the app, or right from the speaker by pressing the “+/-” volume buttons simultaneously! This past May saw a new feature of being able to personalize your sound for any artist or music genre with the custom equalizer (EQ). Now that is pretty cool! 

• Voice control on Spotify and more is coming soon:  You will be able to just ask “Alexa, play my Discover Weekly” or any music from Spotify on MEGABLAST and BLAST. Spotify will soon be joining other Amazon Alexa supported music services such as Amazon Music, Deezer and TuneIn globally; and Pandora, iHeartRadio and SiriusXM in the U.S. -- Being able to use your voice to control music from these streaming services over Wi-Fi is awesome! On Bluetooth, you can enjoy music from any of your favorite music services.

• A better way to listen with Spotify Connect is also coming soon: MEGABLAST and BLAST will be the first Ultimate Ears speakers to integrate Spotify Connect. When on Wi-Fi, simply open the Spotify app on your phone and play music directly to our speakers (under “Devices Available”) without the need to pair through Bluetooth. I prefer that as sometimes I have had issues pairing up with Bluetooth. Music fans can also stream the highest quality sound possible from Spotify. With Spotify Connect, text message or make calls without interrupting the music and save your phone's battery. That is another cool feature as so many apps make you interrupt what you are doing to respond to calls and texts.

• New grouping experience for smart speakers is coming soon: You can group up to eight MEGABLAST and BLAST speakers on Bluetooth and Wi-Fi! Stereo mode is supported when you connect two MEGABLAST or BLAST speakers. Optimized to take advantage of the speakers’ built-in Wi-Fi capability, you will experience greater range for grouped speakers and improved connection reliability. Grouping is expected to be available later this year. For those with large houses or outdoor areas, this is great news having such flexibility to move around listening to your favorite songs.
