The XG8T ($379.99) and the XG2T ($79.99) are available to purchase today at LG.com and select LG-authorized retailers. Built To Last The XG8T and XG2T speakers have passed seven military standard tests, withstanding high temperatures, rain, salt fog, dust, and even water immersion and shock1. Plus, with an IP67 dust and water resistance rating2, the speakers can withstand the elements, making them the perfect choice for pool parties and nights around the campfire. Rechargeable lithium-ion batteries mean both speakers can keep up the beat; the XG2T packs an impressive up to 10 hours of continuous playback3, while the XG8T keeps the party going with up to 15 hours of playback4. From the beach to the mountains, the XG8T and XG2T are built to be enjoyed almost anywhere. Weighing just 0.7 pounds, the ultra-light XG2T features a fully adjustable cord that can securely fasten the speaker to backpacks, bike handles or even tent poles. The larger XG8T comes equipped with a versatile and adjustable hybrid strap made of soft but durable fabric for carrying comfort. It can be used as a shoulder strap for longer journeys to the beach or as a shorter handheld strap for easy transport. No matter where your adventure takes you, the XG8T and XG2T are built for entertainment on the go. The XG8T features a full-range woofer and two tweeters that work in harmony to balance different frequencies. With up to 120W of power, the XG8T puts strength behind punchy beats along with bass enhancement algorithms, letting users hear and feel each note. LG's Sound Boost EQ mode amplifies sound performance, filling the room – or outdoor space – with enhanced bass at the touch of a button on the XG8T or XG2T. Ready to Party The XG8T features multi-color LED lights, customizable with the XBOOM App, allowing users to select from a wide range of colors that enhance each song and mood for an enriched audio experience.
