    No Base.... sounds clear, but even with the base boost activated there is not enough base coming from the unit. I wouldn't recommend for those who like a little thump and bump in their music.

      Hi Miguel, thank you for sharing your feedback and we're sorry if the bass did not meet your expectations. This is definitely not the experience we'd like you to have. Allow us to help and turn this experience around.

      You can enjoy more dynamic sound (MEGA BASS effect). You can take either of the following procedures for setup.

      At the time of purchase, the MEGA BASS sound effect is activated.

      On “Sony | Music Center,” tap [SRS-XG300] - [Settings] - [Sound] - [Sound Effect] - [MEGA BASS].

      Press the MEGA BASS button on the speaker.
      Each time you press the button, the MEGA BASS sound effect is activated or deactivated.

      Hi FrankyH, We're truly glad you appreciate most of the features of this speaker and you like the excellent audio. The XE300 is designed more around portability rather than trying to get sound all around the speaker uniformly. Both of the XE3300s speakers are facing the same direction so you can get true Left/Right separation like the artist intended. And with the Line-Shape Diffuser, the sound spreads further to the front area of the speaker, allowing you to enjoy the same sound quality whether at the front or to the side of the speaker. This means everyone in your venue can dance to the same music, feeling the same sound quality. Thank you for choosing Sony! -Jess Sony_US

Plus, with a portable size and handy carry strap, you can take it anywhere you go with ease. Thank you for choosing Sony! - Marco 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.

      Hi Sergio,

      Thanks for sharing your review and experience with the XG300. Your feedback about the volume is greatly appreciated. For optimum performance, make sure that the software version of the speaker is up-to-date. Please refer to this link for more information:

      https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/speakers-wireless-speakers/srs-xg300/software/00283954

      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.

      It is recommended to charge the built-in battery sufficiently.

      You also have the option to adjust the sound settings of the speaker to tailor-fit the sound quality to your needs. You may find this link helpful:

      https://helpguide.sony.net/speaker/srs-xg300/v1/en/contents/TP1000669923.html

      Additionally, you can use the Party Connect function and Stereo Pair function to enjoy a more powerful sound. You may refer to these links for more information:
