Portable Bluetooth Speaker

Q: how many watts is the 55

A: The specs show 30 watts. This is a bi-amped system so the woofer has an amp and the stereo speakers are also on their own amps. That 30 watts is also what's called 'music power' I suspect, what the amp/speakers are capable of on loud transient passages. I would guess that each amp has in the neighborhood of 5 watts RMS which would total 30 watts music power (3x5=15 double that for music power on transients). Confused? It is a pretty loud little speaker. You also have to take distortion into account and these are clear watts so you can use more of those watts than most speakers are capable of before they distort. There are several ways to state watts so it really depends on what method the manufacturer uses to rate their product. The Sony SRS X55 is a great driver set for music with plenty of power in it.

Q: is this product compatable with a smart phone?

A: Oh yes, I works with my wife's iPhone and my Samsung Galaxy 5.

Q: Can it be plugged to 220v?

A: Hello, thank you for your message. Before operating the speaker, be sure that the operating voltage of the speaker is identical with that of your local power supply. Operating voltage: 100 V – 240 V AC, 50 Hz/60 Hz. - Oscar.

Really good portable speaker
I had been looking into buying a wireless Bluetooth speaker for the longest time. I was particularly interested in the UE megaboom and was pretty sold because of its loudness and 360 sound. Upon further investigation I found the demo for this speaker in the store was pretty terrible, but after hooking my device to the speaker and testing its capabilities, I was immediately sold on this product. Much better quality than the megaboom and half the price. It has left and right capabilities if you buy two of them and it is reasonably priced. Battery lasts a long time. I always have the volume on the speaker turned all the way up so I have more power to control it with my phone/computer/tv, and it still lasts about as long as advertised. Very simple to use and has NFC capability although I have never used it. Mainly just Bluetooth and aux. For $150 I would rate this 5 stars. Definitely has been worth the money I spent on it. Some downsides -First down side is that the charging port is not a micro usb so you have to bring along a extra charger that is specific to the speaker if you are bringing it with you. -Mic for Bluetooth communication is worthless. Why you would want to use this to try and talk with someone through your speaker is probably the stupidest feature of the product. -No external app for the phone to better utilize the speaker. I really think Sony should beginning developing a user friendly app for their speakers like the UE products have. I think that would greatly improve the overall quality of their product.

A surprise hit for Sony
My wife was looking for a bluetooth speaker with speakerphone capabilities for her craft room. My wife always says Bose are the best. I talked her into listening to other bluetooth speaker before buying. The BestBuy employee was there to demonstrate the various speakers using his iPhone. The Bose, Beats, JBL and the other speakers were good, but the clarity of Sony surprised us. We could hear instruments and voices more clearly than others. Sure a lot of other bluetooth speakers have bigger bass sound, but they are not as clear as this Sony SRSX55. We placed in the Sony SRSX55 in her craft room. It sound wonderful. I also found out that you can pair another Sony SRSX55 with ours to get 2 channel stereo sound. Now for the other features, the NFC ability had our Sony paired to her iPhone 6 in less than 10 seconds. The speakerphone was clear on both ends of the conversation. We love this speaker. I want one for my garage, hint hint to the wife. WARNING, don't listen to the demo modes that are proved by the speaker's manufactures. Bose and Beat sounded the best with their demos but when we used my wife's and the BestBuy employee iPhones, they sounded muffed and a little flat compared to their demos. Use your bluetooth or 3.5mm hook up to hear how your device will sound on the speakers. Plus Sony demo audio needs to be up dated. They won't sell speakers with that demo. Thank God for the BestBuy employee recommending to use bluetooth or 3.5mm plug.

Beats expectations!!
This is one solid speaker. A truly excellent sounding unit with great bass. All types of music sound fantastic. I spent a couple of days reading reviews on a number of portable speakers including the Bose Soundlink III and the Sony SRS X55. After visiting the store and putting my final choices to the test with my music, the Sony was clearly the superior speaker. The volume has enough power for filling a room or working in the back yard. Battery lasts as stated and charges pretty fast. The price is one of the best values, less than others in its class and the speaker will exceed your expectations I'm sure.
