    Very clean sound. Definitely happy with purchase. Was sceptical about ability to actually be loud enough in a open area, was told it was "too loud".

      Thank you for your review, Jose!

      We're glad to hear that you find the SRS-XV500 to be a good speaker that sounds pretty nice and does the job for small spaces.

      We appreciate your honest feedback that it wasn't as loud as you anticipated. We designed the XV500 to be a versatile and portable party speaker, and while it delivers powerful sound, we understand that for some users looking to fill larger, open areas, more volume may be desired. Your input is valuable as we continue to balance size, portability, and maximum output in our product line.

      Thank you again for choosing Sony!
