Good but not for the price.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The speaker is nice and well made but honestly for the money ot should be much louder. Now the software is good and the connectivity is very good and simple but again for the money it should be much louder.

Thank you for your time writing this review. While we are glad you like the XP500 speaker, we're sorry to hear if your experience is not that great when using the speaker for an outdoor activity. Sony values customers opinion as we always strive to deliver the best experience possible.
To get the most out of the SRSXP-500 volume, make sure that the speaker is charged sufficiently. 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 and turn up the volume of the speaker and the connected device.
