    It’s everything I was looking for. Great sound and love the bass. It’s not too heavy or too big. I thought it would be bigger but I’m glad it is how it is.

    This speaker is everything. On God!!! Worst the penny... which was for less than the original price. Best Buy Outlet is the way to go. You get a warranty so why not. This speaker is greatfor your truck if your speakers aren't workingor you do t have Bluetooth in your vehicle. Carry anywhere...the sound pumps. Not a big head turner pumping machine. But it does justice to an open room. Works great on the TV too.

    Great speaker but not enough bass for my taste. Beautiful miss and highs though. If bass isn’t your thing I think this is a great choice. Ended up returning and going with the JBL 320 on sale for $399 at the time. The thing I miss the most about the Sony is the optical input on the Sony.
