Super nice speaker
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pretty nice speaker. It’s smaller than the 700 version but it still packs of punch. I’m absolutely thrilled with the base button as I can alter how much base there is if I’m watching TV compared to when I am listening to music.

Good but not ideal sound
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Absolutely! Here's the updated review: Pros * Powerful, room-filling sound: The XP700 delivers big audio ideal for parties and gatherings. * Long battery life: Enjoy up to 25 hours of music on a single charge. * Water-resistant design: IPX4 rating means it can handle splashes and spills. Cons: * Heavy and bulky: Not the most portable speaker for frequent travel. * Pricey: It's an investment compared to smaller, more budget-friendly Bluetooth speakers. * Some sound distortion at max volume: Audio quality can suffer slightly when pushed to its limits. Review The Sony XP700 is a party powerhouse! If you're looking for a speaker that can fill a room with loud, punchy sound (especially booming bass) and keep the music going all night, this is a great option. However, high frequencies aren't the most distinctive, and it's both large and on the expensive side, so it may not be the best choice for everyone.

It's an okay speaker
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this as my new tailgating speaker. Sound quality is fantastic, volume - when plugged in - is incredible. Once it's unplugged and running on battery, the max volume drops significantly. It's still pretty loud, but it was just a touch louder than my jbl extreme it was replacing. Ultimately returned.

Perfect Christmas gift for the wife
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I saw this speaker while roaming through BestBuy and heard music coming from one of three speakers which where all the Sony XP series. the sound quality was very nice, but I was thinking what I would need it gigantic speaker for. Two Christmas parties this with my wife being the life of the party I knew that this would make the perfect gift for her. I search online looking for a good quality karaoke machine but then realized that "party speaker" was what I needed to search for. Review of the speaker. Like I said earlier the sound quality is amazing, I can connect via Bluetooth and there is even a Sony app that allows you to download your music library. I had to purchase microphones to use for karaoke. this machine is light and easy to move around unlike the xp900. This speaker is also very loud with nice base. the only downside would be that you can't put this on a pole tripod.

Awesome BT Speaker!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great speaker for out by the pool for our Sunday Funday parties every week. Very clear audio and good base for what it is. Definitely keep it plugged up when using if possible as it is a good bit louder when you do.

Great sound
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound is awesome!! The only thing stopping it for a 5 is that in an open area like at a baseball game it is not loud. If you plug it into an outlet it gets louder but compared to other speakers it’s not that loud enough.

Posted .Hi RobertpO,
Thank you for your time writing this review. We're glad to hear that you like the amazing sound quality of your SRSXP500. However, we're sorry if your feel that the sound is not loud when using the speaker on an open area. Allow us to help make this a better experience.
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. If the sound is low, please check the following:
Charge the built-in battery sufficiently.
To play music louder, connect the speaker to an AC outlet.
Turn up the volume of the speaker and the connected device.
Check that the connected device is playing.

Good, but not the XV-500
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good little speaker. Has a great battery life. I own two XV-800 which has far more features including echo control. I purchased this thinking it would’ve been the same, but got the incorrect model. I should’ve done my homework and got the XV-500.
