||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have always had good experiences with Sony audio electronics. Do your homework when setting up and pairing. Charge it to full first. Only gripe is having to locate 2 speakers within 3 feet for stereo, doesn’t make sense for true stereo separation

Great! We're glad that you are enjoying the sound quality of the speaker. Deep, resonant sound elevates your favorite music with the XB43 wireless speaker. The newly designed X Balanced Speaker Unit gives the EXTRA BASS™ power of the XB43 a crisper, fuller sound and two new tweeters for clearer vocals. The IP67 waterproof, rustproof and dustproof design means you can listen anywhere, indoors or out, with up to 24 hours of battery life. Thanks for choosing Sony!

Posted .Hi Belle, Thank you for this amazing review! We're glad you like the sound quality and lighting effects of the speaker. We appreciate your feedback about the weight of the unit. The weight is due to the all-new X-Balance speaker design, and 2 new tweeters. We also kept the speaker waterproof and dustproof like the XB41, but the XB43 is shockproof as well. Oh, and even though we added more speakers your XB43 still has up to 24hours of battery life. All of these things add up to our best sounding portable speaker to date, that can basically go anywhere you want to go. Thanks for choosing Sony! -Sam
