Spread powerful sound anywhere you go and anywhere you are with the XE300 Wireless Speaker. With IP67 Waterproof, dustproof and shockproof design, this speaker is designed to thrive in any environment. With all day battery life and an impressive line shape diffuser this speaker ensures everyone at the party hears uncompromised sound quality throughout the room.
- Line Shape Diffuser: Sony's unique Line-Shape Diffuser creates line source and distributes the sound evenly, across a wide sound front, to better fill your space with audio. This spreads high-quality sound further and wider around your party, without compromising on sound quality.
- IP67 Water, dust, and shock proof: The XE300 is waterproof, so you'll have no worries by the sea or the pool side. Additionally, with an IP67 rating, your speaker is sealed against dust, so you can use it on any surface, wherever you take it.
- X-Balanced Speaker Unit: Unlike the circular diaphragm in a conventional speaker unit, the newly developed X-Balanced Speaker Unit in the XE300 features a non-circular diaphragm which realizes more sound pressure for a high-quality sound.
- Play all day on a single charge and get Battery Care protection: Keep the party going with up to 24-hours of battery life on a single charge, and USB-C quick charging gives you up to 70 minutes of playback after just 10 minutes of charge time.

- Party Connect: With the Party Connect feature, you can combine up to 100 compatible wireless speakers with BLUETOOTH technology and sync your music so everyone dances to the same beat. Or with Stereo Pair you can connect two speakers wirelessly for an epic stereo sound.
- Don’t miss a minute with Fast Pair: Just one quick tap and the Sony XE300 pairs with your Android device.

Q: Can you use the speaker without the Sony app?
A: Hi Kas, Thank you for the inquiry! Yes, you can still operate this speaker without using the Sony Music Center app. Pairing and connecting to Bluetooth can be done manually. However, to get the most out of your XE200, the Sony Music Center app allows you to customize other operations and maximize your audio experience. Please take note that some features can be done with the “Sony | Music Center” app like sound quality setting and equalizer adjustment, built-in battery level indication, switching Bluetooth codec, and many more. What you can control with “Sony | Music Center” varies depending on the connected device. Hope this helps. Regards, Jess
Q: Can this speaker be paired with the Sony XB33 speaker?
A: Yes it can
A: Hi Dutchman, Thank you for the inquiry! The Bluetooth of the speaker operates within a range of about 30 m (about 98 ft). Bring the party with you and spread sound with the XE200 Wireless speaker. A line shaped diffuser and X-balanced speakers provide a wide sound stage, with powerful bass and richer sound. Pair with IP67 Waterproof, dustproof and shockproof design, this speaker is made for even the strongest elements. -David
A: Stereo Imaging: Adding a second speaker allows for stereo sound reproduction. With two speakers, you can create a wider soundstage, where different elements of the audio can be localized and heard from different positions within the listening area. This can enhance the overall immersion and realism of the sound. Sound Distribution: Multiple speakers can help distribute the sound more evenly throughout the room. With only one speaker, the audio may be localized and concentrated in a specific area. Adding a second speaker helps to fill the room with sound and creates a more uniform listening experience.
Q: What are the Dinensions? LxW?
A: Hello, thanks for your question. The dimensions of this unit are approximately 12.52 inches for the width, 5.43 inches for the height, and 5.35 inches for the depth. Hope this helps. With the 25 hours of battery life and IP67 water and dust resistance of the XG300 wireless speaker, you can enjoy a whole day of party from the beach, to the park, and to the pool. Stream anywhere and get things booming with Party Connect where you can combine up to 100 compatible X-series wireless speakers with BLUETOOTH technology and sync your music so everyone dances to the same beat. Make sure to download the Sony | Music Center app to Optimize audio settings, select playlist, and control Party Connect. ~Earl
A: Hi jrfromffx, Thanks for the question! The Party Connect and Stereo Pair functions on Sony speakers do require the use of the Sony Music Center app for initial setup. Once you have paired the speakers using the app, you can connect them to another Bluetooth device that does not have the app and still enjoy stereo sound. However, the initial pairing and grouping must be done through the app. To use the Stereo Pair function, 2 SRS-XE300 speakers are required. By connecting 2 speakers via BLUETOOTH connection, you can enjoy more powerful sound. You can connect multiple speakers (up to 100 speakers) compatible with the Party Connect function via BLUETOOTH connections and enjoy music playback. The XE300 speaker is perfect for bringing quality sound to your party. The Line-Shape Diffuser sends a wide sound all around, without compromising on quality. Plus, with a long battery life, portable size and impressive durability, this speaker is the perfect partner for your next party, wherever that might be. Hope this helps! - Kris
