    Sony's SRS-XP700 is a touch on the larger side of "mobile" speakers and while some might not have an issue with this, younger/smaller users might. I point this out right up front because it is just about the only con/downside to the speaker. Aside from that, it's an amazing device that more than makes up for this one single shortcoming. You have numerous inputs; 2x USB, 2x line in w/level adjustments, aux cable input, and you can also connect multiple SRS-XP700's together via Sony's "Party Connect" technology. It says it would allow up to 100 devices, but who has the ability to test that? I'll take their word for it. With all those connections you can use this thing as a party speaker, monitor, karaoke machine, guitar/electronic drum amp, etc etc, soooo many uses. There's your typical notch in the top to rest a phone/tablet for use during karaoke. The USB's also double as chargers so if you are out and about the SRS-XP700 acts as a mobile battery brick for other devices. A very welcome feature. Lights surround the perimeter of the handle notches found at the top and bottom of the speaker. There are numerous settings for them found in the Sony app, or you can quickly turn them on/off entirely via the "Lights" button found on the back of the SRS-XP700. As far as sound goes the SRS-XP700 is nothing short of amazing, especially for a $500 all-in-one "mobile" option. Treble is great, mids are stellar, but the bass, oh the bass. Sony has hit this part just right, even with "mega bass" activated the lows don't overpower the mix. So many other brands put such an emphasis on the low frequencies that the listener loses a lot of what's going on. Not the case here. Activate mega bass and you still have an amazing soundstage. There is also a rear-facing speaker that acts as a monitor for when singing karaoke, as you typically stand behind the speaker with it facing towards the listeners/audience, another nice touch I don't believe I've seen on any other such setups. Easy recommendation, full price or on sale, get one. Surprise your loved one's with one whether it be a birthday, Christmas, or just because...they will love it!

    The ultimate party speaker!

    I don’t even know where to begin with this speaker! First of all, this thing is a monster. Basically think of it as a combination between a large floor speaker and a portable unit. It has the power and output of a floor speaker, coupled with the portability and convenience of a portable unit. The speaker as you would assume is Bluetooth capable. I used it attached to my iPhone and iPad so far. The connection was seamless and simple. Just find it on your phone and connect to the signal. The signal is the same as the model number of the device (XP700). The speaker is huge as I mentioned before. So you would think it has to be plugged in all the time to have all that power going to it? Nope. The thing has a crazy 25 hour battery life! Maybe I have been living in a cave or something. But this is the first speaker I have owned of this size that has a battery like this. So essentially you can charge it and let it play at a day long party outside with ease. Personally, I have not tried it for more than a few hours at a time, but it works equally well plugged in or not plugged in. The sound is the most important aspect with a speaker obviously. Voices are clear as a crystal in spoken word or song. The bass punches hard and both are adjustable. To be honest, for the price I expected performance. I was not disappointed at all! It says it is water resident to splashes, but I will obviously not test that. But given the fact that it is very humid where I live that is a bonus. The last thing is something I have not tested either, since it is not my thing. But apparently the manual says that you can use this speaker as an amp for your guitar. It also has a mic input, so I think this would have some karaoke options if that is your thing. In closure, this is the ultimate party speaker. It will last longer than you will, with the long battery life. But it is not a portable unit for a book shelf. It has strong sound and lots of punch. But I would definitely recommend this thing to anyone that entertains. The quality is top tier and I really like it. You will too.

    Bought this for adding some entertainment between innings at my kids' baseball games. We had been using a JBL Extreme 3 and it was loud enough for us parents, but the kids just couldn't hear it. Was leaning toward the JBL Partybox, but this one happened to be on sale so I picked it up. This thing thumps rather well and has very little distortion. Plenty loud for the parents sitting around the area. Out in the field??? It could be louder. But then again, it can ALWAYS be a little louder, right?!? I can't really say much about the battery as we haven't really had to use it very long without being plugged in. I will say that there is a noticeable difference in volume when it's plugged in. We had zero issues playing it at full volume during warm ups and between innings for multiple games without recharging it. Overall, it was a good purchase. Now if we can get another parent or two to also purchase and link up....

      Hi DarrylP,
      Thank you so much for the 5-star rating! We're glad you like your XP700 speaker. 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. Turn up the volume of the speaker and the connected device.

    It actually took me a minute to understand what "wireless" really meant with this speaker. I am just not accustomed to seeing a speaker of this size that doesn't need to be plugged in. But this thing is essentially one of those portable bluetooth speakers everyone has seen a ton of, but in a huge party speaker size. I don't know why I haven't seen more of these. Setup is easy as any portable speaker. It has a normal power cord you'd find with most major electronic equipment so you can charge it. You can pretty easily connect to your phone via bluetooth and then you're ready to play some music. You can also download the Sony Music app and/or the Fiestable app (both of them recommended by my phone after I connected to the speaker) to fine tune some of the settings like EQ and lighting. Sound quality is quite good. Bass might even be a little too heavy. I don't ever hear our neighbors who share a wall with us in our home but I was afraid they were going to knock on our door because of the bass on this thing. Turning off Bass Boost seemed to be a little better. Both options sounded really good though. I'm not a super audiophile or anything but I tried some lossless music through Apple Music and it all sounded pretty great to me. There's a lot of connection options as well if you don't want to go the bluetooth route. There's 2 USB connections. One of them lets you just charge a device straight from there and the other one lets you play and charge at the same time. If you have a device with a 3.5mm jack, there's an input for that. There's also inputs for a microphone and/or guitar with a 1/4" jack. So you have a lot options for what you need to connect. Overall, I like this speaker. I'm surprised more of these large form battery powered speakers don't exist since they are so large and don't need to be constrained by battery size. I'm sure this isn't the first but it's the first one I really noticed and, like I stated earlier, didn't even fully realize just HOW wireless it was until reading through some of the instructions. I think the sound is good and you can basically connect any device you have so if you're in the market for a good, portable, large speaker and this one is in your budget, go for it. There

    This speaker packs a punch. It sounds fantastic with or without the Mega Bass function turned on. I prefer it with the Bass on because it doesn't have any distortion with it. The sound is crystal clear, and the omnidirectional sound means you'll hear it no matter where you are in relation to it. It pairs with your phone or mobile device in seconds. It literally could not be easier to set-up. I personally love the lighting effect with it, and pairing it with my smaller Sony speakers through the party-chain function really provides great, wide-reaching surround sound and a cool atmosphere in low-lighting. You can use it with the Fiestable app to create or join playlists and create DJ effects to your music if you like to experiment with things like that. Be aware, this speaker is portable but BIG. The carrying handles make it manageable, but it is heavy. It has connections to use a microphone for singing/Karaoke and to use as a guitar amplifier. You will not be disappointed if you are looking for big sound in a portable package.

    This is the biggest Bluetooth speaker I have ever owned, and wow it's awesome. Very simple unboxing, you get the cable and some paperwork and that's about it. The speaker itself is made from a very durable plastic with handles to move around. These handles are pretty important as the speaker weight almost 40lbs. Size wise it's around the same size as my 13 gallon trash can. The speaker does have subtle RGB lighting, so nothing to crazy if using in your home. It can be used with the included power cable or wirelessly. I am yet to kill the battery, it seems to last and last. The speaker has 2 subs and 3 tweeters and produces excellent audio. The lows are magnificent and they don't muddy the mids at all. The highs also come through really well with some good detailed sound. This speaker also connects to the Sony app allowing for adjustments. Overall this speaker is amazing. It's like having a nightclub in my backyard and my neighbors hate it lol

    Poor when unplugged

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I have had a chance to use the speaker for the last six months. Its got good sound quality if i use certain apps. For example using it with the stock phone music player, the sound is not very loud. However when i use it with my third party app called Poweramp, the sound is just crazy. When it comes to loudness, the sound is average if the speaker is not plugged in. When you plug it in is when you feel ground shaking bass and loudness. So it is basically somethin I like to use where there is power connection, if none, you will be left yearning for more. Now to the battery life, the manufacturer states 20 hours of playback with certain parameters. However in my experience, the speaker is really poor with battery, and you will be lucky to squeeze five hours from it if it is unplugged. And that is if I am listening to it with lights off, average volume and no megabass. In summary I feel disappointed in it especially with battery life.

    Just got this speaker as a gift from my wife for our first anniversary. How did she know! Well, she knows I love my music clean, clear and loud. I’m a smooth jazz and R&B guy who has been into music for years (old school) so I want to hear all the music / instruments. I absolutely love this speaker. It give me the highs, mid, and we don’t want to go there with the BASS. Wow, I don’t need the MEGA bass. This speaker provides a nice balance to all my sounds. BTW, download the music center app to your phone for the EQ controls and more. Great for the home, park or beach. Get your party on or just kick back and enjoy your smooth sounds that this speaker kicks out. You won’t be disappointed. Strongly considering adding another. I’ll go enjoy more music now…..

    Speaker sounds awesome! Just wish the battery would last a little bit longer. Pairing with other sony speakers for party connect is simple and works well for parties.

      Hi PretzforPres,
      Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us! Glad to hear you like the superb sound, easy pairing, and Party connect function of your XP500 speaker. We appreciate and taken note of your feedback with regard the built-in battery life of the unit. Actual performance time may vary to the volume, songs played, surrounding temperature, and usage conditions. You may refer to this link with information of the built-in battery life using specified music source: https://helpguide.sony.net/speaker/srs-xp500/v1/en/contents/TP1000243068.html?search=available%20operating

      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. We suggest to connect the speaker to an AC outlet. As long as the speaker is connected to an AC outlet by the supplied AC power cord (mains lead), the speaker's built-in battery is capable of charging itself even while the speaker is turned on.

      Hope this information helps and thanks again for purchasing Sony! - Kris Sony_US

    Been playing this since I got it. The illuminating lights, DJ mode and sound effects is amazing. The sound is mind blowing, the bass is definitely mega and yet clear. Battery life is going on and on and on. Took this outside to the pool area the past two days and it last forever. I played it for about 4 hours at a decent "party" level and the battery still had 85% left. Very unreal as the bass and the volume should have in my mind taken more battery, but it didn't. Build quality and handles are top level. This is a large portable speaker with incredible sound. Connects to my I phone and plays everything I threw at it. The fiesta music and Sony music center are fun as you can do some really cool mix stuff with those apps.
