Partnership with global superstar Post Malone

Sony has partnered with global superstar Post Malone for the launch of the new ULT POWER SOUND Series as part of Sony’s “For The Music” audio brand campaign. As one of the most influential and genre-defying artists of his generation, Post Malone embodies the spirit of authenticity, creativity, and connection—values that lie at the core of Sony’s approach to audio innovation. “I’ve always wanted the music to feel personal, and this partnership with Sony is a chance to create something that brings people closer to the music in a real way,” said Post Malone. “This ULT POWER SOUND Series is insane, everyone should really experience this.” The collaboration kicks off this month with the launch of Sony’s new ULT POWER SOUND Series. Additional details of the partnership will be announced in the next few months.

Feel the massive bass and stronger sound with the ULT TOWER 9 and ULT TOWER 9AC

The ULT TOWER 9 and ULT TOWER 9AC offers massive bass and powerful unrivalled sound pressure in the party speaker models. Users can take the party to every corner of the room with 360° Party Sound. The ULT TOWER 9 and ULT TOWER 9AC feature four tweeters that deliver clear sound to both the front and rear of the speaker, with two mid-range speakers for vocal clarity. The speaker also includes Sony’s X-Balanced Speaker Unit to ensure clear audio and powerful sound. Hitting the ULT button gives access to two exciting bass modes – ULT1 for deeper, lower frequency bass and ULT2 for powerful punchy bass. This speaker ensures the sound spreads regardless of where listeners are in the space and feel the full power of the music.

The party never has to stop thanks to the ULT TOWER 9’s up to 25-hour battery life1, while the ULT TOWER 9AC uses an AC connection without a built-in battery, delivering more powerful sound pressure. The easy-to-carry handle makes it simple to carry or lift and the stable castors help easily pull the speaker so listeners’ favorite tunes can follow wherever they go.

The ULT TOWER 9 and ULT TOWER 9AC do more than just play music — they transform a space into a full-on party experience. The 360° Party Lights create a synchronized lighting display2 that can link up to 100 compatible speakers, syncing both music and lighting seamlessly – filling any space with the ultimate party atmosphere.

The ULT TOWER 9 and ULT TOWER 9AC are also equipped with fun and convenient features, such as karaoke and guitar inputs, as well as the unique TV Sound Booster function that enhances the audio–visual sound experience, while watching everything from live performance videos to movies.

Bring the music anywhere with the ULT FIELD 5 and ULT FIELD 3

Enjoy the beat with the ULT FIELD 5 and ULT FIELD 3, featuring a new shoulder strap for easy on-the-go tunes.3 

The ULT FIELD 5 offers a superior music experience with boosted bass, while the ULT FIELD 3 delivers powerful bass from a compact body.

Experience the immersive ULT POWER SOUND with the ULT FIELD 5 and ULT FIELD 3, engineered to deliver enhanced bass that pulls listeners deeper into every track by hitting the ULT button.

The technology in the ULT FIELD 5 works in harmony for better sound quality. The X-Balanced Speaker Unit produces a clear and powerful sound with a tweeter providing a crisp and spacious sound for high frequencies. The passive radiators are optimized to enhance bass sound.

The ULT FIELD 3 offers power that doesn’t compromise clarity. The speaker delivers powerful sound and crystal-clear vocals from the two-way active driver design, incorporating a dedicated woofer and tweeter. Plus, the layout of the side passive radiators has been optimized to enhance bass sound.

The detachable shoulder strap is perfect for life on the move. The shoulder straps offer multiple carrying options that perfectly project sound wherever needed. This makes it ideal for outdoor adventures3. With the ULT FIELD 5 and ULT FIELD 3, listeners can choose the color that matches their look, from Black and Off White, and an additional Forest Gray colorway with the ULT FIELD 3.

Keep the energy going all night with the ULT FIELD 5’s impressive up to 25-hour battery life1, while the ULT FIELD 3 offers up to 24 hours4 of non-stop power.

With IP66 and IP67 waterproof and dustproof rating5, the ULT FIELD 5 and ULT FIELD 3 are ready for listening wherever users like – and there’s no problem rinsing them off either6. The speakers are also salt-water resistant, which makes them the perfect beach companion.

The 360° Party Lights are also added to the ULT FIELD 5 to bring the party to life. Both speakers include other convenient features, such as Party Connect, Multipoint Connection, Bluetooth® Fast Pair7, and a USB charging port.8

Sing out loud with ULT MIC

The ULT MIC is also being introduced to the ULT POWER SOUND Series. Whether it’s a solo performance or a duet with a friend, take center stage with the ULT MIC and sound incredible every time. Users can sing their hearts out with crystal-clear vocals for karaoke night. Designed to pair seamlessly with our ULT POWER SOUND Series speakers, these wireless microphones instantly connect two wireless mics by inserting dongles into the quarter inch jack mic port, delivering exceptional vocal clarity.

Environment in mind

The ULT POWER SOUND Series is not only designed to deliver powerful sound but also with the environment in mind.

X-PHY Inc Unveils Real-Time Deepfake Detection Tool Ahead of RSA Conference 2025

Expanding its AI-powered security suite, X-PHY takes aim at the rising threat of AI-generated deception

SAN FRANCISCO, April 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — X-PHY Inc, a leading innovator in embedded cybersecurity technology, has announced the launch of its latest solution ahead of RSA Conference (RSAC) 2025 – Deepfake Detector – a real-time deepfake detection tool that empowers users to verify the authenticity of videos, audio, and images directly on their devices, without relying on the cloud. Live demonstrations will be held for the first time during RSAC.

The growth of deepfakes has been exponential – deepfake content on social media alone grew 550% between 2019 and 2023, and the World Economic Forum states it is a key global risk. X-PHY’s innovation is designed to combat AI-generated deception, enabling users to verify the authenticity of digital media – including videos, images, and audio – with up to 90% accuracy, in real-time. This marks X-PHY’s expansion into AI-driven content integrity solutions, bridging data protection with digital trust.

“At X-PHY, we are committed to extending our ethos of Security by Design beyond data protection,” said Camellia Chan, CEO and Co-Founder of X-PHY Inc. “The X-PHY Deepfake Detector strengthens our vision of a Community Root of Trust, where every layer – from hardware to data to content – serves as a checkpoint for authenticity and security. By combining deepfake detection with our existing hardware-embedded defences, we’re ensuring every endpoint not only protects data, but actively discerns and verifies the trustworthiness of the information flowing through it.”

On-Demand Deepfake Detection

Upon activation, the X-PHY Deepfake Detector uses multi-modal AI to analyze video, image, and audio streams in real time. By examining facial micro-expressions, voice fingerprints, and Generative Adversarial Network (GAN)-generated artifacts, it flags signs of manipulation – even across multiple video windows. Detection is performed entirely on-device, preserving privacy and functioning even without an internet connection.

This is achieved through the Deepfake Detector’s use of advanced temporal and spatial AI analysis, powered by pre-trained neural networks. These models are capable of identifying subtle inconsistencies across facial movements, audio waveforms, and image artifacts – common signs of AI-generated content.

When combined with X-PHY’s patented hardware-based protections, this forms a seamless security ecosystem, protecting both stored data and the integrity of digital communications.

Flexible Deployment, Fuss-Free Integration

Designed for seamless adoption, the Deepfake Detector offers flexible deployment options to suit varying enterprise needs. It can be installed as a lightweight software agent on personal computers and laptops running on Windows operating systems or packaged with the X-PHY Cybersecure SSD – creating a unified defense layer that spans data protection, ransomware prevention, and deepfake detection.

The solution is application-agnostic, compatible with leading platforms like Teams, Zoom, Webex, Chrome, YouTube, and Meta. Users can activate it with a single click when joining a meeting, where it runs autonomously for a preset duration and can be re-engaged as needed.

Built on Zero Trust principles, the solution adds an additional layer of authentication and verification at the device level, helping organizations strengthen their cyber resilience against AI-powered deception and reducing reliance on external validation systems that often introduce unnecessary operational complexity.

X-PHY Deepfake Detector is now available for purchase through the official X-PHY website and from authorized global channel partners. For enterprise enquiries or bulk deployments, please contact our sales team at info@x-phy.com

Experience live demonstrations at X-PHY Inc’s Booth #5368, located in the North Expo Hall of the Moscone Center, from April 28 to May 1 during RSA Conference 2025.
