    This speaker is amazing! We got this one to replace our Sony speaker from a few years ago that was having aggravating connectivity issues, even with no obstructions. Anyways, this model sounds much better and have had 0 connection issues and the lighting sequences really complement what you’re listening to. Highly recommend to anybody in the market for one.

    Love this speaker! Nice and rich deep sounds that smaller desk portable speakers don't provide. Excellent price for how how nice this speaker is built. It has a good heavy weight to it when you pick it up (Does not feel cheap at all). I am very impressed by all of Sony's portable speakers. I had my other tiny Sony portable bluetooh speaker for years and years and I hope this big one last just as long!
