||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound is crisp, but the 6" sub-woofers are limited to what they can do. The base is clean and thumpy, but at the higher volume the two 6" subs bottom out a bit.

Posted .Hi DavidS,
Thank you for your time writing this review! While we are glad you like the crisp sound of your XP500 party speaker, we're sorry to hear if the bass sound bottoms out a bit at higher volume. For optimum performance, make sure that the software of the speaker is updated as it includes key features, applications, bug fixes, and feature improvements. Please note that the bass quality may also vary depending on the source and music being played. You can use the equalizer function of the Sony | Music Center to tailor-fit the sound quality to your needs. You may find this article link helpful with video tutorial on how you can adjust your compatible speaker’s bass, midrange, and treble to suit your mood or the type of music you are listening to:

great speaker, pairing up not so much
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.the two 5 inch speakers give a clear sound and is loud enough to fill your room. I also bought a 2nd one since it can pair up with each other. That took a little more time to get and there is not much information on how to do that easily. Which is why I gave it a 4 star.
