LG's RP4 might not look like a speaker, but it sure sounds like one.
Hidden in the felt-covered top section of the RP4 is a large compression horn tweeter that again is designed to disperse its high sounds in a 360-degree splay. Its high rigidity helps it produce unexpectedly clear treble sounds too; in fact, it can vibrate at 10kHz without the tweeter material being damaged.
At the same time, though, it’s not nearly as absurdly huge as some of the most egregious ‘party speakers’ around these days. In fact, having lived with it for a few days I’d say its size is pretty much perfectly pitched to make it a genuine crossover product, capable of handling both outdoor party and indoor personal use.
The RP4 doesn’t ship with its own remote control, but a set of touch controls has been built into its top edge. Most people, though, will control the RP4 using LG’s Xboom app for iPhone or Android. This recognises the presence of the RP4 once Bluetooth connection has been established and provides a custom set of controls that includes easy selection of the different lighting modes, and the opportunity to pick an EQ setting from a range of themed audio presets.
The RP4 actually presents a very balanced sound, where bass is certainly very much present but functions, correctly, as a mere foundation to a track rather than the only thing that matters. The mid-range is surprisingly open and dynamic too, providing ample room for vocals of all ranges and tones to breathe and find their place without becoming artificially exposed on the one hand, or overwhelmed by other mid-range instrumentation on the other.
Another pleasant surprise is how much detail the speaker manages to pull out, despite having what is in some ways such a simple speaker arrangement at its disposal. Subtle vocal inflections and breathing are all present, as well as even the most subtle percussive effects. And apart from when you’re using the Classical preset, such details don’t stand out more than they ought to.
If your music tastes extend to weird stuff not covered by any of the presets, you can also set up your own custom EQ mode.
