Title: What exactly is different in the new LM-5S-G
Post by: mickey on May 03, 2025, 09:56:19 AM

I see something about some new Hd sound but what else exactly is new?

Something I’d like to know too.  I just bought a bunch of the 4s model after inquiring if anything new was coming.  Kinda miffed that they didn’t let us know it would be obsolete.

I only learned about it because a client asked about it yesterday - It's not on the what's new page on Rings site yet, but it has replaced the LM-4S-G page already.

I'll let you know if I learn anything new.

Only reason I even heard about it was an marketing email from Ring.

One obvious difference is the LM-5S-G has 12^* outputs instead of 6 on the LM-4S-G, including 2 high power outputs.

* With caveat. If you use output 11 then input is disabled. If you use output 12 then DCC mode is disabled.
