Great speaker
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bass doesn’t hit as hard as the JBL party box 310, but still an amazing speaker. I like the light aesthetics on this. I also got a good deal on this since it was an open box

Big Speaker, Bigger Sound!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First off, I did not realize that this speaker was going to be this large in size but, I am not disappointed at all. I can keep it upright in a corner or somewhere else unobtrusive, or put it on its side in order to make it fit somewhere else out of the way. Most of my experience to this point has been outside in my backyard so it really hasn’t mattered. During a gathering we had with several children and adults, we could definitely hear the music from the speaker and when someone (young ones) turned it up, it was enough to disturb a conversation and had to be put back down a bit. Everyone likes the lights on the front and using the Music Center App, there are several options to turn them on, change colors or turn them completely off if you prefer. The other app that you can use with it is called Fiestable. I haven’t had much time with that one but it gives you additional options with using the microphone and doing Karaoke, mixing your music like a DJ, etc. The sound from this speaker is top-notch. Sony has several products or varying sizes from handhelds medium and large like this one. They have done a great job with this one. The out of the box “ClearAudio+” setting is great but you can also adjust the equalizer manually if you prefer. The tones are really crisp and the bass is deep and without distortion when you want to really crank it up. On the back of the unit, there is a rubber form-fitting cover that hides the ports and controls for when you use a microphone and/or a guitar, two USB ports, auxiliary input, and the power connection. When using it without anything attached and the cover is in place, it is water-resistant which means it can withstand a bit of rain or splashes from the pool. Excellent not to have to worry all the time about your speaker getting wet. The controls on top are easy to use and what you normally see on a speaker these days. It has the power button, Bluetooth, volume, and the play/pause button that is also used to skip or replay a song. The speaker was charged at about 60% out of the box and I was able to use it right away. It lasted about 10 hours I’d estimate and then it told me that the battery needed to be charged. It took about 2 and a ½ hours to get to 90% charge which is how it is configured to help the battery last longer. Essentially, you don’t charge all the way to 100 nor do you go all the way to zero which helps the battery have a longer lifespan. I’m really happy with this speaker. It has great sound and enough flexibility for me and my use. You won’t be disappointed!
