Posted .Hi Bestbuying,
Thank you for sharing your experience with us! We're glad to know that you like your XP500 party speaker. We appreciate and taken note of your feedback with regard the sound. 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, turn off the speaker and charge the built-in battery sufficiently.
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. To play music louder, we suggest to connect the speaker to an AC outlet. For reference: https://helpguide.sony.net/speaker/srs-xp500/v1/en/contents/TP1000243112.html?search=low%20sound
