Small and good but battery not holding for ling
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice but battery does not hold 16 hour standby as advertised. Extra bass which it takes away some finesse of the sound.

Posted .Hi Suave45, Thanks for the feedback. We're sorry if your SRSXB13/ portable bluetooth speaker isn't meeting your expectations. Allow us to turn this a better experience for you. For connectivity issues, select “Priority on stable connection (SBC)” for the wireless playback quality of the speaker. Keep the speaker away from a microwave oven, Wi-Fi®, etc. Please follow this link for more details:
https://helpguide.sony.net/speaker/srs-xb13/v1/en/contents/TP1000198272.html
As for the loudness and as well as the sound quality of this speaker will depends on the source that you're playing and audio device that you are using. Also, take note that sound becomes low while in use when the rechargeable built-in battery is running low as a result of long-time use of the speaker at a loud volume even though the speaker was connected to an AC outlet by a USB AC adaptor.
Additionally, the SRS-XB13 can also be paired with another SRS-XB13 if you want an even bigger sound.
