    I got this for my mother to use in her car that does not have the ability to connect her cell phone to the stereo system. She uses it for hearing her GPS. It works just great for this. I tried to convince her to get a new car, but at 90 she just wasn't interested. LOL

      Hi Qwerty, thank you so much for the 4 Star rating! We are so happy to hear you are satisfied with the superb performance of our XB13- especially when using it in a gathering like a graduation party.

      Hi Computing,

      Thank you for the review. We're glad you like the sound quality. When the source does not contain much of bass sound, the bass sound may not be audible. We recommend two SRSXB13 and using the stereo sound function for more powerful sound.
