Great audio and great battery
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This speaker has worked great for me. Used it for many outdoor bonfires not as loud as originally hoped but battery lasts all night and makes up for it especially with the sound quality.

Posted .Hi BenjamenP, It's wonderful to hear that the audio and battery life have been great for your outdoor bonfires. While it might not be as loud as you initially expected, the sound quality and endurance certainly seem to make it a hit. 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. The XV500 features 3 sound effects depending on your needs (STAMINA, MEGA BASS, and LIVE SOUND). Enjoy your nights out and thanks for choosing Sony. -Jess

We're glad to hear that you are enjoying the sound quality of your SRS-XV500 speaker—it's designed to deliver powerful audio!
Regarding the ports: The SRS-XV500 is equipped with inputs for maximum flexibility. You should find ports for both a microphone and a guitar/bass on the rear panel of the unit, typically labeled accordingly. This allows you to use the speaker for karaoke or even plug in an instrument directly.
If you’re having trouble locating them or getting them to work, please let us know, or you can check the user manual for a diagram of the rear panel connections!
Thank you again for choosing Sony.

Open box purchase
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got an open box item. Before purchasing I had the opportunity to inspect the item. Speaker was still in excellent condition like it was never used. It was a steal. $80 off for an open box. I’m pretty happy with the speaker. Good battery life and it sounds really good. Bass hits pretty hard.
