    Very loud. My husband loves it because it’s loud and portable. Me on the other hand, I agree it works great but sometimes it’s too loud.

    I picked this up because there was an open box item available for what seemed like a very good price. Based on its size and MSRP, I thought I'd be blown away by the quality of this speaker. I wasn't. The speaker has great bass, and the high frequencies are present without being harsh. There, however, is where what I liked about the speaker ended. Even though the speaker can be oriented vertically or horizontally, I found the sound stage in every configuration to be rather narrow. You basically have to be standing directly in front of it in order to tell that the sound is stereo. For a spwaker of its size and weight, the volume wasn't very loud, either. Things got a bit louder when I plugged it into electricity, but I don't want to have to plug this thing in by the poolside. Ultimately, I returned the speaker and replaced it with something which is far more portable, far louder, and which has a far wider sound stage. Pros: Good Base, cool lights Cons: Not very loud for its size, narrow sound stage, far too large and heavy for its size, performs far below expectations for its price point

    Good speakers, very heavy, and Battery doesn’t last long when there is alot of bass in music. Connectivity to other like speakers ideal. Would have given it five stars, if the battery would last longer.

      Hi TitusH!
      It is truly wonderful to know that you find the SRS-XP700 to be a great speaker, and we certainly appreciate your honest comments regarding the weight and, specifically, the battery performance when the bass is maximized.

      To help improve your battery life while still enjoying that deep bass, we recommend switching the MEGA BASS feature off in the Sony | Music Center app, or lowering the volume slightly. This small adjustment can significantly extend your playback time.

      Thank you for choosing Sony. We appreciate your feedback!
      Best regards,
      Estefany Sony_US

    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.
