Customer Ratings & Reviews

The price was a little high, but it is exactly what I wanted

This big beefy machine is a great party speaker and has provided some great karaoke nights for me and the boys. This is a party must have. Pair this with the Sony microphones and have a great time.

Good sound and battery life. The sound is clear and nice.

Lovr it really worth the money good sound system too

Excellent great indoor and outdoor. Hooks up to other bluetooth speakers for the ultimate experience. Great for movie night at home

The speaker has option to add a mic as a mini-mixer. The quality is nice and is hefty but the sound quality is lack luster compared to the JBL, high end is not as clear, low end is muddy and not as pronounced

I love it. everything I want in a speaker. it ess great customer service. everyone was very friendly.

Just had an event worked perfectly so issues with product

It did not have the um USB channels couldn't change the channels

Very good did not disappoint me worth every penny and recommend it

This is the ultimate speaker for bringing the party to anywhere. First off, it is very big, and weights close to 75 lbs. Even though it is large, the wheels make it easy to move around and the top has easy to grip handles. Setup was as easy as plugging it in and begins charging right away. The instructions have a QR code to download the Sound Connect application. This app gives an easy to view status and configuration of the speaker. After a short update, it was ready to go, and the buttons are clearly labeled and easy to control. The lights are bright and can be set to go to the beat of the music. When you turn on the ULT button the difference is remarkable. The base is incredible and can actually feel the music even with the sound turned down. This makes this very unique in that you can get a very immersive experience with having to turn the music up very loud. You can get up to 25 hours on a full charge and I have been using it for hours and the battery has only gone down 15%. There are plenty of connections for connecting other devices such as a guitar or microphones. The only thing that would have made it better if it were waterproof. I plan to get a waterproof cover so I can haul on the back of my pickup truck.

Great sound but if it had better wheels it would be better . That way it could be moved around a lot easier. If they locked it would be a safer way to move it and keep it in one place.

Good looking, very impressive lights looking super nice on party…. Sony says 24 hour battery life sorry Sony let me tell you you wrong I used on two different parties first party was 8 1\2 hours battery life, 2d 7:45 no way so embarrassing I tell everyone we have music for all nite long. Sony to much money for that Beaty full body. Karaoke was horrible i spect a crystal clear sound no recoméndate. Don’t waste your almost $900 dollar. Why laying to much Sony?

Barely put the volume up on this speaker and had me amazed with how much power it holds!

Customer service was knowledgeable and knew what he was doing. Well come back

Awesome its better than I expected it to be. Very good

I love the speaker i just wish it was a little bit louder

The speaker is pretty good wait for it go on sale though

I must warn you up front - this speaker is huge. It comes with a built in dolly handle for transportation and weighs over 65 pounds! I intended to use this to replace an older bluetooth speaker that I used at parties not realizing that this one is probably 5x the size. As I titled the review, this could easily be used by itself (or paired via the "connect" feature) to provide the music and lights for an event with a DJ, perhaps even a wedding. There are 2 microphone inputs including one that can be set to "guitar mode" to handle a live music setup as well. The lights that pulse and change with the music are fun, but there's the option to turn them off if they get too distracting or obnoxious. SOUND QUALITY: - The sound quality is superb. I tried connecting this to a television with an optical output. I watched a YouTube music video only to realize that I had configured the speaker incorrectly. By default, it will run in "TV Sound Booster" mode which means that it acts almost like a supplemental subwoofer (with a few mid range additions too). My TV isn't able to simulataneously output to its speakers and the optical out, so I had to switch TV Sound Booster off. But I imagine you could easily use this to augment an existing setup, especially if you're lacking low-end sound. Once I switched off that mode, the full sound came through crisply and loudly. I barely had the volume up to 20% before the family deemed it as too loud for our home (wall rattling). There are three options under the "ULT" button for how expansive the bass is. When it was off, I had to strain to hear bass that wasn't from a bass drum. At ULT1, I found a good mix of bass guitar, other mid range drums, along with the rest of the band setup. ULT2 was almost too muddy of a mix for a guitar-based band video - but it pulsed perfectly for dance music. When I took the speaker outside, I didn't have to turn the volume up much beyond 40% to clearly hear everything well - even with traffic noise (we live near an expressway). MICROPHONE/GUITAR SUPPORT: - This was somewhat unexpected. I plugged in my bass guitar and I swear this is my new favorite way to practice or jam along with music. I could adjust my guitar to a loud enough level over the music so that I could hear myself playing. This brings a whole new dynamic to playing along with videos online. I don't have a microphone to test with, but I imagine this would work really well along with it. The box suggests for karaoke, which I could totally see as well, and it has microphone holders that retract on the side to hold them inbetween sessions. MISCELLANEOUS: - There's an option for Bluetooth to prioritize between sound quality and stable connection. I love this because all too often I've had to deal with sound cutting out because I'm streaming from the phone in my pocket and I walk away, proverbially ruining the party. When I set the stable connection option, I didn't notice any degradation in sound quality, but I also didn't find that I could go farther away - I wasn't able to lose a connection within my own house in either mode. I suspect that's because both my phone and this device use a very modern version of Bluetooth. - I did also pair with a very old Bluetooth device and found something interesting. I had to set its volume to the max to even hear sound come out of the speaker, which was a sharp contrast to newer devices who allowed for syncing of volume levels (i.e. you could control the volume from the device streaming to the speaker or from the speaker itself and they were the same). - The app has some confusing language choices here and there. It's pretty clear to me that it's still being worked on, as there were some counter-intuitive flows in order to change settings. The app is required if you want to update the speaker. As soon as I installed the app and connected it, the speaker already had an update. I'm not sure how often these will happen, but I wouldn't be surprised to find that even this speaker will require updates like everything else technology-related in our lives. - I wasn't able to fully test the "25 hour" capacity of the speaker, but I definitely used it after a full charge for more than 18 hours straight at varying volumes. I'm pretty sure you'd be able to fully charge it and use it for a lengthy event without issue. - One nit-pick - this comes with a USB A port which can be used to charge a device. Majority of new devices use USB-C, so it would have made more sense to have a newer port. But it also outputs power and such a slow rate that newer phones won't be able to charge off of it. I think the real intent of the port was to be able to plugin a USB storage device with music on it.

A little bit a lagging, might be the internet. But its a great speaker.
