Pulse Elevate Wireless Speakers – PlayStation’s First Step Into Desktop 3D Audio

Sony surprised everyone by announcing the Pulse Elevate Wireless Speakers, its first-ever wireless desktop speakers designed specifically for gaming. They expand the Pulse family (which already includes the Pulse Elite headset and Pulse Explore earbuds) into a new form factor that blends console, PC, and mobile ecosystems.

Key Features

3D Audio Integration: Built with planar magnetic drivers and built-in woofers, the Elevate delivers lifelike sound across the spectrum. On PS5, they fully support Tempest 3D AudioTech, positioning in-game cues with pinpoint accuracy.
PlayStation Link Connectivity: Ultra-low latency, lossless wireless audio via PlayStation Link, with simultaneous Bluetooth support for mixing in music or calls.
AI-Enhanced Mic: A microphone is integrated into the right speaker, using AI noise rejection for clear, headset-free voice chat.
Portable + Docked Modes: Designed for both desktop setups and on-the-go use with PlayStation Portal or mobile devices. Each unit comes with a charging dock for seamless transitions.
Customization: Players can tweak EQ, sidetone, and mic settings directly from PS5 or PC menus.
Design: Available in Midnight Black and Classic White, with a minimalist look meant to frame a 27–32” monitor.

Why It Matters

This isn’t just another accessory—it’s Sony signaling a bigger push into PC and hybrid gaming setups. By offering a speaker solution that rivals headsets in immersion, PlayStation is broadening its audio ecosystem beyond the living room.

The Elevate also reflects a trend: Sony is no longer designing hardware only for the console faithful. Instead, it’s building a cross-platform lifestyle brand, where PS5, PC, and even mobile players can share in the same premium audio experience.
