German luxury electronics brand has announced a new plate theatre system in the We Boost , a plug and diddle wireless Dolby Atmos sound system .
The We Boost is due to plunge at select Loewe stores and retail merchant in June 2025 for the total of £ 999 . That ’s less than the Samsung HW - Q990F sound system of rules and much less than Sony ’s Bravia Theatre Bar 9 ( which is only a soundbar and not a sound arrangement ) .
The We Boost patronize not justDolby Atmosspatial sound but can diddle Dolby Digital and PCM soundtrack , the 4.1.2 organization feature four wireless satellite speaker system and a subwoofer .
It ’s not acompletelywireless home movie house solution though as it connects to a TV through aHDMI eARCdongle . But there are no cables between the artificial satellite speakers and the subwoofer , make it less cumbrous to grade the speakers where you desire them in a room .
The planet speakers feature upwards - firing drivers to create the feeling of sound above you , while the We hike counts on 720 watts to deliver sinewy basso and “ crystal - clear highs ” . There ’s also plunk for forBluetooth streamingfrom a mobile machine , with a line - in and centre - out port wine for connect a centre - line verbalizer .
There ’s a remote for ascendancy that features an integratedOLED displaythat allows you to adjust bass , and triple as well as switch to other auditory sensation modes .
Home cinema still tangled by cables
The Loewe We Boost is another in a prospicient lineage of wireless speech sound systems for the plate but it ’s not really wireless .
And that ’s because it still needs a HDMI eARC connection to connect to your television receiver , but HDMI eARC is something that I conceive a mass of audio brands would like to get around it completely – but procession is boring .
HDMI eARC is useful in that it leave a solid and mostly unchanging connection between the tv set and audio organisation , but it come with subject . Lip - synching can go awry , there can be compatibility takings between various devices connected to a TV and of course , there ’s a cable to deal with as well .
Brands such as Sonos have long advocated for go altogether wireless , and some have already reach this . Samsung ’s Q Symphony and LG ’s WOWCAST technology allow a reasoned arrangement to connect to a TV over a Wi - Fi meshing , as does WiSA technology .
The problem is that both Samsung and LG ’s tech only wreak with their own TVs , while WiSA is supported by expensive ware and not affordable ones .
That whole wireless future is within each , but not for everyone , at least not yet .
