Q: How do I switch the flash light in the "off" mode?

A: Simply depress the "Extra Bass" button for three seconds and that terminate the flash light feature. Depress "Extra Bass" for three seconds again to activate the flash light feature.

Q: Does this speaker connect with a laptop and also I read that it said it could sync with other speakers can it sync with the same one if you buy two??

A: The speaker can connect to a laptop and yes it can sync with another model of the same... in fact I have two

Q: What is the difference between this model and the SRSXB20 ($99.99)? The only feature I can see is the battery life, 24 hrs/ 12 hours. I have the XB20 but was wondering if the XB30 puts out the same sound or is it louder?

A: Hi, Hc201022, They are almost the same in terms of the sound quality. They differ in design and SRSXB30BLK has a supplied AC Power Adaptor. For the full specifications, please visit this links: https://docs.sony.com/release//SPECS/SRSXB20BLK_mksp.pdf https://docs.sony.com/release//SPECS/SRSXB30BLK_mksp.pdf Thanks, Vincent

Q: Can this speaker both charge and play at the same time? Also, does it charges with a regular USB cable?

A: Hi Nito, Yes, you can use and charge the unit at the same time. For charging, you'll be using the supplied ac adaptor. You may refer to the link below for more information about the unit: https://docs.sony.com/release//Help_4694130112.pdf ~Ralph

Q: Are the flashing lights constantly changing colors or can it be set to just one solid color on the XB30? Is it similar to the XB40 with using an app to hold a certain led color?

A: Yes, as mentioned, the lights are adjustable through the free downloadable SongPal app. Only it's now called (Sony) Music Center app. You'll have a bunch of options with the lights. Turning off is the first one. You can also adjust an equalizer through the app. I downloaded the app through Google's "Play Store".

Q: Does the Sony XB30 have an equalizer? What is the difference between the XB20 and XB30? Would it just be best to get 2 of the XB20 speakers for the price of 1 XB30? I am looking for good sound quality that is loud and but clean.

A: The XB30 has an equalizer, allthough it is hidden inside the deepest of settings in the songpal app! So yes, there is an equalizer but you have to have the songpal app to change it!

Q: Does this support RCA and mini jack?

A: Hi leelarupa, It does have a stereo mini jack, but no RCA terminal available. Here is the link to its specification. https://docs.sony.com/release//SPECS/SRSXB30BLK_mksp.pdf -Jerome

Q: So I went to plug my speaker in the other day and the cord is a little loose but never been jerked on. I use it for work almost daily, with the lights turned off and the extra bass generally on. When I plugged it in it wouldn't charge. Any suggestions??

A: Hi Red9706, make sure that the charger is firmly connected. If problem still persists, try using a different charging cable to isolate this issue. I hope it helps. Regards, ^Ron
