Sony Portable Bluetooth Speaker Model:SRSXG500
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I would like to give it a 4.5 overall rating. I tested it against several other similar models that was available in store and this one seemed to have better sound clarity and the bass is not muddled, like you hear with some of the others. The extra bass boost gives it a little more punch, which I didn't think was necessary...…but the kids love it!
