    Good sound quality and bass for the price. Easy to use, though quite awkward to transport. Able to amplify when outdoors with no change of sound quality either wired or via Bluetooth.

      Hi George,

      Thanks for sharing your review and experience with the SRSXP500. We're glad that you are enjoying the sound quality of the speaker.

      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. For optimum performance while using the built-in battery, charge the speaker sufficiently.

      The XP500 combines superb sound with plenty of party features to make it a fun and versatile speaker. With Powerful Party Sound by the X-Balanced Speaker Unit and the front high-efficiency tweeter, it sends out rich, clear, and high-quality sound. It is perfect for parties, inside or outside the home, has plenty of battery life, is IPX4 Water-resistant, and has an easy-to-use handle for moving from one party to the next.
