Posted .Hi Dalia,
Thank you for the 5-star rating! We're glad to hear how your XP500 speaker works perfectly with your TV. We're sorry if the sound is not as loud when using it outdoor. To play music louder, we suggest to connect the speaker to an AC outlet. The maximum sound volume for playing music depends on whether the speaker is running on power from the connected AC outlet or from the rechargeable built-in battery. This, however, does not indicate a malfunction. Try to turn up the volume of the speaker and the connected device.

Great sound
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound. But once it gets to 75% loudness that’s the cap. 100% loudness sounds the same.

Better sound that XP500
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound ok, better than the XP500, XP700 has more power, we keep the XP500 for the easy size to take with us, the XP700 wish have wheels, (not fan to lift 38 pounds). Also the app is not that easy to connect in party mode, not sure if I'm not doing something right, but take some time to make them pair together.

Posted .Hi 240ztino,
Thanks for sharing this honest review. We're happy to hear that you like the incredible audio and very good bass sound of the speaker. We also appreciate your feedback if you find the speaker doesn't get very loud while running on power from the rechargeable built-in battery. The maximum sound volume for playing music depends on whether the speaker is running on power from the connected AC outlet or from the rechargeable built-in battery. This, however, does not indicate a malfunction. To play music louder, connect the speaker to an AC outlet. Also, 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.
If the sound becomes low while in use, follow the procedure below.
1. Turn off the speaker.
2. Charge the built-in battery sufficiently
The XP500 is a speaker that's built to help fun-loving people make the most of their life. Whether you're relaxing in your living room or partying in your garden, the XP500 will give you a superb sound and plenty of fun features. All you have to do is choose the music. Thank you for sharing your feedback and for choosing Sony! -Jess

Outdoor sound for movie nights
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This speaker bangs! We bought it to use outdoors with our projector and being that it has a 25 hour battery usage time, that works through Bluetooth it is perfect. The sync process is fast and easy. Can’t wait to get another and enjoy many fall movie nights with this in the yard.
