    The Sony ULT TOWER 9 comes with chest-thumping bass. You can move it to the backyard, inside the house, or anywhere you need audio that demands attention. I like that you can set the pitch adjustment from low to high key.

    So far so great! The sound is clean. The bass in the ult 1 & ult 2 id more than enough. The battery life is very accurate; but all depends on how loud you listen. To be honest, I can’t turn it more than 30% because it’s loud and clear enough for me. We’ve been singing karaoke out from the thing for 2 plus hours every now and then. I like it a lot and glad didn’t go with the 520 Partybox; too much bass.

      Thanks for that 5-star review, SonyvsJbl!

      We are pleased to hear that the ULT TOWER 9 has been working great and that you find the bass in our previous units, the ULT 1 and ULT 2, to be more than enough.

      Thank you for highlighting the accurate battery life. Our development team worked hard to provide a party unit capable of playing all day long with no problems at all, and we are so happy to know we achieved that goal.

      The ULT TOWER 9 is designed to deliver high-quality sound even at high volume levels. It's great to hear that 30% volume was enough for you to enjoy your music and that the karaoke session was a complete success!

      Thank you so much for choosing Sony for your karaoke parties. We hope you continue to enjoy your music!

    Like what the title say. You can't really get better sound quality for the price. I've had JBL, bose and other home theater equipment for comparison and the Sony one is a league above in terms of music quality and impact. It gives you the feel of a much higher quality dedicated tower speakers with amplifiers. Bass is surprising for its size. Added bonus for mic inputs and optical.

    I have so many bluetooth speakers. but this is the best sounding one that I have heard in long long time. Very immerseful. Fills up the room from wall to wall. They won't say what the wattage is on this speaker, but i'm sure it's in the hundreds. And that doesn't really matter anyway. It sounds great , and has plenty of power. Bass sounds great. But it's not overwhelming. Still allows you to hear the instrument separation. I bought the a c version because I didn't want a battery. A speaker this big doesn't need to be moved around anyway.

    I have only bought Sony products over the years, they are always reliable and I have never been disappointed Sony never ceases to impress, unless space is an issue due to it being quite “bulky”, I highly recommend this product, I currently owned the XP 700 and I’ve had it for the past two years and loved it, But this Ult Tower 9 is on a whole other level! The bass is impressive “it will Definitely will shake the walls in your house” mids and highs are very clear and pronounced at any volume & can handle any genre of music you throw at it! And it sounds even better when paired with my XP700…… I highly recommend this product… definitely worth the money!!

      We are absolutely thrilled to hear that your experience with Sony products has spanned years of reliability, and we sincerely appreciate you making us your consistent choice for home audio. Your loyalty means the world to us!

      It's wonderful to hear how much the new SRS-ULT900 ULT TOWER 9 has impressed you, even coming from an owner of the beloved XP700. To know you consider it "on a whole other level" is a massive compliment to our engineering team.

      We designed the ULT TOWER 9 to deliver precisely the kind of powerful audio you describe—the impressive bass that "will definitely shake the walls" and the clear, pronounced mids and highs that handle any music genre. We're also delighted you discovered how incredible it sounds when paired with your XP700!

      We appreciate your honest note about its size, and we're glad that despite being "bulky," you still highly recommend it and find it to be "definitely worth the money."

      Thank you again for your strong recommendation and for being such a valued Sony customer!
