      Hi JohnR,

      We regret to hear that you were not satisfied with the speaker. Your feedback is extremely important to us and is very much appreciated. For optimum performance, it is recommended to install the latest software version of the speaker (via the Sony Music Center app). It is also recommended to charge the built-in battery sufficiently. The sound may become low in the following cases. This is not a malfunction.

      -While the speaker is running on power from the rechargeable built-in battery, the sound may become low in the event that the rechargeable built-in battery is running out of power and the CHARGE indicator flashes slowly. This, however, does not indicate a malfunction.
      -When the ambient temperature of the speaker is high.

      Additionally, you have the option to adjust the sound effects and equalizer function of the speaker to tailor-fit the sound quality to your needs. You can also use the Party Connect function and Stereo Pair function to enjoy a more powerful sound.

      Thanks again for sharing your review and we hope you will consider Sony for your future purchases.

      -Ralph Sony_US

    Not happy with this purchase. I feel the design impedes sound and for the weight, size and cost of this speaker it should be louder. I can barely hear it while bicycling with it hanging from my bars.

      Hi Mqtty72,

      We are sorry if your speaker is not loud enough for you. Please make sure to turn up the volume of the speaker and the connected device. You can also pair the speaker and the BLUETOOTH device again to isolate the issue. If still the same, you can follow other steps here to further isolate and hopefully resolve this issue: https://helpguide.sony.net/speaker/srs-xe200/v1/en/contents/TP1000611676.html.
