Excellent Bluetooth speaker. Great sound, ample loudness, and ability to connect multiple speakers together. I have used it for house parties, tailgating, and even working in the yard. I bought a second one because it is soo awesome!

Great product! Had the 400 series 1st then traded for the 700. 400 lost volume when unplugged but did sound slightly better in small area. This one fills a larger area with great sound but closer up it does not seperate as well... 700 is also not as portable as it weighs and is much bigger. I do recommend this product for larger and louder events for sure.
Hi RobC, Thank you for the 5-star rating! Were so glad you like the incredible audio quality and overall features of your XP700. Your assessment is spot on. The XP700 is built for venue-filling sound. With Omnidirectional Party Sound provided by the X-Balanced Speaker Unit and the front and rear High-efficiency Tweeters, it sends out rich, clear sound in all directions. It’s perfect for indoor or outdoor parties—with plenty of battery life, IPX4 water resistance and a convenient handle for moving from one party to the next. Thank you for choosing Sony! -Jess

This is my honest review after 2 weeks with it. The battery is great, lasts longer then i expected at basically full blast. The sound quality is awesome and seems to sound best outputing from an ipad. Just sounds cleaner. But my samsung s22 and ive connected a iphone 13 to it and it works great. It is on the heavier side and having wheels would have made this a 5 star product. The light show is very simple. Not very bright or much to brag about. The bass on it is very good. I tried it in the yard and can clearly hear it from the street. Pros: volume, bass, loud. Cons: no real EQ, no wheels and lights arent very big.
Thanks for commenting! We are extremely pleased to hear your satisfaction with the long-lasting battery life and exceptional sound quality, especially the loudness & Bass sound of the SRS-XP700. We truly appreciate your feedback with the design and lighting of the speaker. For the equalizer, this can be adjusted through the Sony | Music Center app. To set the equalizer setting of the speaker to your preference, check out the following link: https://helpguide.sony.net/speaker/srs-xp500/v1/en/contents/TP1000243087.html?search=equalizer

Great speaker! I can't complain about anything other than I need a bigger one. This is good for a small home not as much for a 2-story home where I want to feel it through out the house. I will be buying the biggest version soon.

My Sony XP700 sounds great. Have it nestled in my master bathroom and it thumps perfectly while I shave or shower. Sounds just as great when moving speaker to my bedroom. Tunes are amazing regardless of the genre of music. Sony XP700 is definitely worth its weight in Gold.
