    Love this thing. It worked great out camping. Louder sound when plugged in, but it's pretty loud without it. Just wish it didn't need to be powered on to charge phones.

      Hi Api06,

      Thank you for the purchase and we're glad to hear that you love 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.

      With Omnidirectional Party Sound provided by the X-Balanced Speaker Unit and the front and rear high-efficiency tweeter, it sends out rich, clear sound in all directions. It’s perfect for parties, inside or outside the home, and has plenty of battery life, and has an easy-to-use handle for moving from one party to the next. You can also optimize audio settings, control music, choose lighting patterns and manage your devices right from your phone using the Sony | Music Center and You can also access fun features like making party playlists, karaoke, and so much more with the Fiestable. Thank you for choosing Sony!

      Hi Jldgold, thank you so much for your review.

      We are pleased to hear you are satisfied with the overall sound quality of our XP500. We are sorry if its maximum volume did not meet your expectations.

      We want to make sure you are getting the most out of your speaker. Please make sure you have downloaded the Sony Music Center app. There you will find all sorts of tools like an equalizer to fine-tune your SRSXP500 and maximize the volume to your liking.

      You may also find different devices will perform better than others, as will different apps due to different audio compression and transmission types.

      For additional troubleshooting, please refer to the following article:
