Posted .Hi AngelR,
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the SRS-XP700! We are very glad to hear that it's reliable, your go-to speaker for events and that the compatibility with other Sony speakers is coming in handy.
We also appreciate your honest note about the bass performance at maximum volume. To enhance the low end, you can try toggling the MEGA BASS feature directly on the speaker or through the Sony | Music Center app, which is specifically designed to boost the bass response and make it punchier for party life.
Thank you for choosing Sony!
Best regards,
Estefany

Speaker Volume on 11
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this speaker because I work in a loud factory. On weekends we are allowed to listen to music. This speaker can be heard 1/2 of the way across the plant with the machines running, or the whole plant with the machines off. This thing explodes music into the stratosphere I swear to god. If you get more than one they can sync up together and play the same music from one source!
