      Hi RichardmH,

      We are pleased to learn that your ULT FIELD 5 is delivering such a massive sound experience! Our goal with this model was to defy its portable size, so hearing that it performs like a much larger speaker is a fantastic compliment to our acoustic engineering. We are thrilled that the powerful bass tones and long-lasting battery are providing the high-energy performance you were looking for.

      That much larger sound comes from our X-Balanced Speaker Units, which feature a non-circular diaphragm. This unique shape increases sound pressure for deeper, punchier bass and clearer vocals without distortion, even at high volumes. When you combine that with the ULT button to boost your low-end frequencies, you get a cinematic, room-filling soundstage that remains crisp and vibrant for hours on end.

      Thank you for choosing Sony to bring the noise to your favorite spaces.

      Best regards,
      Dominick Sony_US

      Hi TaniaS,

      It brings us great satisfaction to hear that you are enjoying the powerful sound quality and impressive battery life of your ULT FIELD 5. We designed this speaker for those who need high-energy audio that doesn't quit; with up to 30 hours of battery life on a single charge and a quick-charging feature that gives you 3 hours of play from just a 10-minute charge, it’s built to keep the music going all weekend. We are also glad you're feeling the impact of our X-Balanced Speaker Units, which provide that deep, punchy bass and vocal clarity even at high volumes.

      Thank you for making Sony the heartbeat of your music and gatherings.

      Regards,

    Sound is much more than I had anticipated, especially compared to an old bluetooh speaker that I had been using. Fills the room and/or spreads sound through the backyard well. Looks great with the LED lighting. Seems that the bluetooth stays connected for a long distance, which is great so I can keep my phone in my pocket while not worrying about connecting to the speaker.

    The sound is really good. I like a lot. But It’s pricey. For music is quite good. For TV kind of sack.IF you are using for party loud good bass and so on. Battery volume bigger wouldn’t last for 25h. Only last for about 8 to 9h. Low volume probably last 25h. I am not so sure about it.

      Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback, SimonW.

      We are truly pleased to hear that you "like a lot" the sound quality of your SRS-ULT50 speaker, especially its performance for music, the good bass, and the volume when using it for parties!

      We also appreciate your honest feedback on the price and the battery life at high volumes. We understand that hitting party-level volume will significantly reduce runtime. While the 25-hour spec is measured under specific, lower-power conditions (volume at half, features off), your real-world experience of 8-9 hours when pushing the speaker's limits is completely accurate and valuable information.

      We value your insight regarding its use for TV audio. We understand that maximizing sound performance for various content types is important, and your feedback will be passed along to our product teams for consideration in future designs.

      Thank you again for choosing Sony and for providing such valuable, real-world experience details.

      Best regards, Gus, Sony Social Media Team sony-global

    SONY you did it again! The speaker is amazing and the way it’s packed looks top notch espectacular. The sound quality is awesome especially with those hard core bass. I love listening to reggaeton and the speaker out matches any other speakers I’ve used in the past. I just have one small issue. The battery dies so fast when the speaker is on full blast mode. I want to give it a 5 star review but my heart says no. Please make the battery life last longer. Sincerely a SONY Fan.
