So much better battery than I expected
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wanted to share my experience with this speaker system. We lost our power form a tree falling on the lines and were without power for 2 days. While this was not a first for us, it was so much better due to the Sony XP700! Without power I was able to turn on the music and listen to my favorites for most of the time we were without power, in addition it charged our cell phones when we needed, and it went the entire 2 days playing for at least 12 hours each day and still had 40% battery when the power came back on. Now to be fair I turned off the lighting effects and we had the volume at about 20% but it was plenty and it really made a terrible situation bearable for us!

This thing rocks!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this to replace my outdoor wired speakers that went kaput. The bass is way deeper and the midrange is so clear. I ended up buying two for stereophonic sound. Awesome!

Dynamic Sound
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was skeptical at first, but I bought this I bought an open box speaker this thing is large. It is loud and the sound is exceptionally clear even at the highest settings. I would definitely recommend purchasing this. If you’re on the fence my plan is to go back and obtain another one. I really like the speaker I needed something for outside we do a lot of entertaining and it seems like we’re always struggling for sound take it from me. You’re definitely going to appreciate getting the speaker. The only thing I really wished that they would sell is a nice quality stand. That could hold this. It is heavy, but that’s really the only downside of it.

Absolutely Worth the Buy
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The wife bought a cheap tailgate speaker which lasted for years and has finally broke on us. This was her Christmas gift 2022 and it is Amazballs. The only downfall of it is the sheer size, the thing is bloody massive and not really a speaker to move and take with you on the go. The sound is top notch and better than the other speakers I saw at the store of this size. Also for the price it is so worth it the sound quality truly is amazing. Worth the buy, and if you are looking for a something a bit smaller there is a smaller version available with a bit more reasonable price. These units are not where the rest of the speakers are located and you will have to look around the store to find them but so worth it, a diamond in the rough.

Great sound.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review. We use the speaker for outdoor use.  It works well on the tennis court or for mobile outdoor locations.  I’ve used the 500 and 700 series and find them to be very similar.
