Fanboy? Yes.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought these a few days before Christmas, can say I've never been let down by Sony audio products. My first introduction to the Sony product product line was through my first walkman, loved it. Their products are just as good now as they were back then. It takes tweaking the settings on this speaker a little bit but once you set it to your liking it's awesome. Worth the price.

Sounds great, don’t buy it.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was disappointed not seeing an aux input on this speaker. That was not my main gripe however the volume of the speaker for the size was disappointing when my tiny jbl speaker is louder that was a hey I’m going to return this. But even though all of that I did really like the relatively natural sound profile that Sony went for with this speaker. But for the price go for the altec lansing brand. I found that their speakers are great in terms of quality to price.

Posted .Hi LintLicker24, we are really sorry if our XB33 did not meet your expectations. Aux out: We do currently have a similarly sized speaker with Aux-in. The SRS-XB31 Portable BLUETOOTH® Speaker. You may check out its full features and specifications on this link https://www.sony.com/electronics/wireless-speakers/srs-xb31. The XB33 was designed to be a very balanced speaker with a focus on both vocal clarity & the Extra Bass you know and love as a Sony customer.
If you haven't, to get the most out of your speaker, please make sure you have downloaded the Sony Music Center app. There you will find all sorts of tools to fine-tune your XB33 and maximize the volume to your liking. There is even an EQ.
Please make sure you fully charge the speaker, especially after it has gone below 10%, and hit the auto volume limiter (designed to keep your speaker battery healthy & safe).
Then Increase the volume level of the wireless speaker and source devices. You may also find different devices will perform better than others, as will different apps due to different types of audio compression and transmission.
If this does not help, please email us at socialsupport@am.sony.com with the following details so we can better assist you.

Good mid-size portable speaker
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've only had this for a short time, but so far it has proven to be a very good mid-size portable speaker. Bluetooth connecting is very fast, and while not for audiophiles, I'm satisfied with the sound quality for what this is. I'm not gaga over the lighting effects but they are kind of fun. The grille wraps around the entire unit and feels like some sort of woven fabric; it is already starting to trap dust, lint and other small particles, and is not removeable. I have some concern that it will be difficult to keep clean over the long term.
