    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.

    Speaker is amazing, I mainly use it for work and just to get through the day. Never really used it for parties but it is more than capable of having enough coverage for a small gathering of friends and family. If you wanna get something for bigger parties, I would go with the ult field 7 or higher. One bonus with Sony speakers if you a link multiple Sony speakers together and have it in stereo mode and they don’t even have to be the same model!! As for some down sides, if you’re looking for heavy bass, this is not the speaker u want. It’s got come kick to it but if you’re looking for heavy thumps, get a bigger speaker. Another downside is the speaker sounds best in ULT 2 mode and of course it drains the battery life. You ca get 20 hours but you’d have to take it off ULT mode entirely and turn off the lights and keep the volume low. Conclusion, I definitely recommend this speaker for a good jam while cleaning or small gathering or even work. It definitely gets very loud and you can’t go wrong with Sony. Just keep it plugged in and you won’t have any issues with dying battery! With that being said, I would snag this speaker on a deal if you could wait. $350 is a lot to ask for but you’re getting Sony reliability and performance. I got mine for around $200 on a sale and I am completely satisfied

      Hi Spaghet,

      We appreciate this thorough feedback on the ULT FIELD 5. We're glad it's "amazing" for your daily use and that you've discovered the Party Connect feature! We understand your point on the heavy bass; the ULT FIELD 7 is indeed the next step up for those looking for more powerful 'thumps.' Regarding the battery drain in ULT 2 mode, you can utilize the free Sony | Sound Connect app to create a custom 10-band EQ preset that boosts the bass less aggressively, which allows you to get an improved sound signature closer to ULT 2 while drawing less power and extending your battery life.

      Thanks for choosing Sony. Best regards,
