    i love my new Sony speaker i do a lot of back yard entertainments in the summer and we all love the deep great sound that this speaker brings to us, even one of my guess said that were truly going to purchase one for his family. I do think he just ordered a speaker for him self.

    This really is a great speaker. My husband bought one about a year ago and our 18 year son kept taking it to his room. So I decided to buy another one as a Christmas gift for the hubby. He loves it. If you want loud then is for you!! It’s Bluetooth and connects really quick. It lights up different colors when music is playing. It’s very durable and will definitely last a long time. It stays charged for a long time too! You know it’s good when we now have two in the house haha.
