Sony has unveiled its new ULT range which highlights deep bass. Three Bluetooth speakers are thus offered, from the small nomad to the large party speaker.
More than a new speaker, Sony announced an overhaul of its range this Thursday. The Japanese manufacturer has in fact presented its new Sony ULT range, intended to replace products labeled Extra Bass (XB) with three new Bluetooth speakers on the program, accompanied by the Sony ULT Wear audio headphones.
For its new ULT range, Sony is targeting all segments and all formats, from lightweight portable speakers to sound models to add ambiance to evenings. Three speakers are being launched this Thursday by the firm, the Sony Ult Tower 10, the Sony Ult Field 7 and the Sony Ult Field 1.
A massive ULT Tower 10 speaker
From the largest to the most compact, we can already focus on the new Sony ULT Tower 10 sound speaker, a particularly high-end model which clearly aims to compete with the other reference party speaker, the JBL PartyBox Ultimate. This is a speaker with superlative dimensions of 110.6 x 42.8 x 41.8 cm and a weight of 29 kilos. Clearly, we are looking at a big baby who will move around using two wheels positioned at the back.

The speaker, however, promises superlative audio quality with a beautiful sound signature which, like all models in the ULT range, places particular emphasis on the bass. There are four tweeters positioned on either side of the speaker, two midrange speakers on the front and a large subwoofer behind the main grille.
A special feature of the new Sony ULT range, the Tower 10 is equipped with a “ULT» which allows you to switch, from a classic mode, to two modes supposed to push the bass: Deep Bass and Attack Bass.
Given its format and the high consumption of the speakers, the Sony ULT Tower 10 speaker necessarily operates on the mains. However, it allows you to recharge a smartphone using an external battery function. In terms of connectivity, there is also a jack socket for connecting a guitar or a secondary microphone. Finally, the speaker comes natively with a first microphone to liven up your evenings.
An ULT Field 7 speaker with 30 hours of battery life
In addition to this massive speaker, Sony has also unveiled a slightly more compact model, the Sony ULT Field 7. This time it is positioned opposite JBL’s Xtreme range with a relatively beefy size of 51.2 x 22 .4 x 22.2 cm and a weight of 6.3 kg. The speaker has two tweeters, two midrange drivers – all four positioned on the front – and two passive radiators for the bass, on the sides. The button “ULT» is once again there to increase the power of low frequencies.
