SRS-XG500 play it again Sam
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This unit was quite a surprise when I decided to purchase Sony's SRS-XG500. This was my second choice to the JBL top rated unit and the Sony unit offered more flexibility of App control and additional inputs on for source connections in my opinion. I took this unit on vacation and when I first played this indoors at louder volumes music was really good with slight muffle, still really good sound. I took this unit to the beach and the presentation was a big and fabulous sound at loud volumes.....a real party animal. And when you want to relax, the SRS-XG500 plays wonderful at low volume.

Sony Portable Bluetooth speaker
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall this is the best portable speaker i have ever owned. Always listen to it on mega base mode though. The quality of sound that comes from the speaker is A+. I can finally listen and understand all the words of all my songs with this Sony portable Bluetooth speaker. The speaker is much bigger than shown in speakers. This speaker will not fit in a backpack. But this speaker can boom.
