    Great speaker, gets super loud with clean bass. The app that’s used for multiple speakers is hit or miss.

    Its a nice sound balance and the bass is good but can definitely be better. I brought this and the JBL PB310 home to compare the two and overall the Sony fell short.

    My 80w Marshall Tufton portable speaker sounds way better and is near as loud and is 1/5 the size. Yes this has more features. But imo is just under-whelming for an 800w fairly expensive unit. Ended up returning it. If you're considering over $700 out the door on a speaker, there are better option for way less money.

    If you can afford this, it is an excellent speaker. It would be great for karaoke nights or for wedding reception and camping as well. I do believe is water resistant although at the time I couldn’t really afford it so I did return it when I am able to afford it again. I will re-purchase. I had it for about a week but it is a great speaker they were out of the JBL ones which made me go Sony.

      Hi, PatrickS,

      Thanks for the review and the 5-stars rating! It is truly wonderful to hear how much you are enjoying your Sony Portable Party Speaker! With its unique rectangular design, the 2 X-Balanced speaker diaphragm has a larger surface area compared to conventional speaker units, and the 6.7-inch x 6.7-inch woofer unit enhances both power and clarity for distortion-free bass.

      Thanks for choosing Sony, have an amazing day!
