LG xboom Power Series flagship party speaker

The LG xboom Power 9000 is the flagship model in LG’s new Power Series party speaker lineup.

LG Electronics has introduced the LG xboom Power 9000, the flagship model of a new xboom Power Series built to turn casual get-togethers into full-scale parties. The lineup launches alongside two smaller siblings, the Power 7000 and Power 5000, giving LG a tiered range of tower-style party speakers aimed squarely at outdoor gatherings and living-room celebrations alike.

  • AI Karaoke Master and Auracast Connectivity

A Three-Model Power Series

The LG xboom Power 9000 tops the new range with 440 watts of output, followed by the Power 7000 at 340 watts and the Power 5000 at 260 watts, giving buyers a choice of scale depending on room size or venue. All three models share the same design language and feature set, with the flagship model aimed at larger outdoor events where headroom and low-end extension matter most. LG positions the series as a direct answer to the growing demand for portable speakers that can credibly replace a small PA system at a backyard party or block celebration, and each model in the range is built around the same modular control layout and carry handles for easier transport between venues.

AI Karaoke Master and Auracast Connectivity

Beyond raw output, the LG xboom Power 9000 leans heavily on software features built around LG’s AI Karaoke Master mode, which is designed to shape vocals and backing tracks for group singing sessions without external mixing gear. It’s paired with AI Sound, a room-adaptive tuning system, and Space Calibration Pro, which analyzes the surrounding environment to optimize frequency response on the fly. The speaker also supports Auracast broadcast audio, LG’s implementation of the Bluetooth LE Audio standard that lets multiple compatible speakers or headphones sync to the same stream — useful for spreading sound across a larger outdoor space or linking several units together for a bigger, more immersive party setup.

“With the xboom Power Series, we wanted to create speakers that don’t just play loud, but adapt intelligently to how and where people are celebrating,” said Lee Jeong-seok, head of LG’s Audio/Video Business Unit. The emphasis on AI-driven calibration and karaoke functionality signals LG’s push to differentiate its new flagship from more conventional Bluetooth party speakers, a category that has grown crowded as manufacturers chase louder, smarter outdoor audio gear.

Pricing and availability

LG has not disclosed pricing for the LG xboom Power 9000, noting that availability, pricing and exact model specifications may vary by region. The Power Series began rolling out from August 17, 2026, with the Power 9000, Power 7000 and Power 5000 expected to reach markets progressively through local LG distributors. Full regional details are expected to follow via LG’s official press release.

Built for Bigger Gatherings

The LG xboom Power 9000’s tower form factor and tiered wattage options place it in a category increasingly populated by lifestyle-oriented, high-output portable speakers that blur the line between consumer audio and light PA equipment. By combining that output with AI-assisted tuning and karaoke-specific processing, LG is betting that party speakers need software smarts as much as raw power to stand out. It follows a broader shift toward premium portable audio from name brands outside traditional hi-fi, a trend also visible in Fender’s recent move into the category with its ELIE portable speakers.

Whether the flagship model can match its studio presentation with real-world performance at volume will become clearer once regional pricing and independent listening impressions arrive in the coming months.

Publisher

Marco Lisi is the publisher of Best of High End, part of AV Concepts BV. His path into audio started early: as a teenager he was drawn into the world of free radio, presenting shows and living immersed in music every day. In his early twenties he ran his own production studio for five years, creating jingles and commercials — hands-on training in sound design, pro-audio workflows, and critical listening through studio monitors that still shapes how he evaluates gear today. He also spent years DJing in clubs before moving into publishing, first at two earlier online magazines before founding Best of High End. His hi-fi and home cinema passion was inherited from his father, an inveterate system-swapper. Marco's first setup — a confirmation gift — paired AKAI separates with entry-level Bowers & Wilkins speakers, a brand he stayed loyal to for years as his system grew from stereo into full surround and home cinema. Like many enthusiasts, he went through an extended "audiophile" phase chasing the next upgrade, before settling into a more grounded view: gear as a means to enjoy music and film, not an end in itself. Years of critical listening have given him a well-trained ear — the ability to characterize a system or pinpoint a change in the chain quickly and accurately. Just as important, his teaching background (a Belgian "regent" degree in Dutch language) gives him the tools to translate those listening impressions into clear, readable writing.
