Seamless Uninterrupted Music
WiFi offers higher resolution audio and a longer wireless range
up to 30m (100ft) than Bluetooth, giving you seamless lossless
music around the house.
With WiFi onboard, you can listen to your favorite tracks
anywhere in your home. Music is streamed directly online
without tethering to a phone – so the music goes on even when
there’s a call, or after you leave the house. Get uninterrupted
access to millions of songs from Spotify, Tidal, Napster, or
iHeartRadio.
Multi-Room, Multi-User
When you connect multiple Omni speakers around the home,
you can choose to play the same song in every room, or
different songs in each room.
Whether you’re streaming music to one speaker, a stereo pair,
or multiple speakers, you can control them without moving a
step using the Sound Blaster InterConnect mobile app.
Plus, every speaker can be controlled by more than one user,
so you and your family can listen to your favorite tracks no
matter which room you go to.
Smart Speaker
Talk to Siri or Google Now voice assistant with a single press
of a button! Simply connect your phone via Bluetooth, and
you can send emails, get recipes or order a pizza using just
your voice. A discreet omnidirectional microphone inside the
Omni ensures your voice is heard clearly. The Omni can also
be used for hands-free calls.
KEY FEATURES
Splashproof
Hold a pool party or have bathroom karaoke sessions
everyday with the IPX4-certified splashproof Omni.
