Posted .Hi DouglasP, Thank you for the feedback on your experience with your SRS-XP500! We're glad you'r enjoying your new Sony speaker. Please note: 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. Hope this helps!
We also appreciate your feedback about the weight of the unit. We have noted your input and will be sure to forward this feedback to the appropriate department.
