I knew this speaker was big but the pictures didn’t do it justice, this speaker is large and heavy, it is just over 2 feet wide and a 1 foot high when set horizontally and weighs over 26 pounds. This isn’t your typical small and light bluetooth speaker but with the built in carry handles it isn’t too hard to move it around.
The front has the speakers and lighting behind a metal grill and the bass port front and center. Strobes sit just to the left and right of the woofers just outside the grill but within the handle opening. Overall everything seems to be pretty well protected.
The speaker will operate either vertically or horizontally and has 3 tweeters in the different corners that automatically switch to whichever 2 tweeters are upright. The bottom and left sides (depending on speaker orientation) both have nice rubber feet to help keep the speaker still and protect surfaces that it is sitting on.
The right or top side (depending on speaker orientation) has the controls. You get power, volume up and down, extra bass, and function buttons along with a built in NFC tag for bluetooth pairing. Indicator wise there are LEDs for input and extra bass selection. Around the back on the same side as the controls you have the rear I/O panel. You have power in, audio in and out via RCA style jacks, speaker add and party chain buttons along with LED indicators, a single USB port that puts out 2.1A, and a cooling fan mounted just under the panel. You can connect multiple units together via bluetooth or the RCA cables to add some more sound to your environment. You can even connect it to other types of devices via the RCA inputs, I have had it connected to a Chromecast audio and the line out from my home theater receiver and it has worked well.
The speaker is able to play .mp3 and .wma file extensions from the USB port. You can do this from a phone or from a USB stick. The speaker doesn’t have a screen or playback controls but the included remote does have playback controls and basic lighting controls. In order to get the most out of the speaker you really need to be using the SongPal app that is available for Android and IOS devices. The app gives you more control and visibility of USB playback, sound EQ modes, lighting adjustment, and other settings. The lighting does change with the music and you can use the app to select the best lighting for the type of music that you are playing.
When I first played the speaker my initial impression was it sounds really good but not amazing. The speaker can get very loud and still sound good. After playing with the speaker for a while and in different places I have come to realize this wasn’t meant to sound amazing, it isn’t for the critical analytic listener, it is meant to be dropped down somewhere and provide good sounding background music. It is the perfect speaker for dropping down in a room when you have friends over for drinks, at an outdoor party or cookout, out in the garage, or even camping. The only drawback is that the speaker is AC powered only so you need to have available AC power. I was able to use the speaker on a portable inverter with no problem so you can still use it where a regular AC outlet isn’t readily available.
Overall I really like and would recommend this speaker. It has grown on me and I know that I will be using it for years to come for many different parties and events where I want to have music and easily just come in and drop this speaker down and have a good time.
Update 1/5/2017: I caught these speakers when the price was lowered for a bit so I picked up another one since I liked mine so much. It was pretty easy to add to the other speaker to make one the left and one the right.
Needless to say when one of my daughters loved it when she heard it, so this year I bought both of my daughters one for Christmas and went ahead and got an extra one for myself to put in the bedroom.
This is a durable audio system and I recommend allowing your system to break in by not cranking it up too loud for the first month or so in order to allow the speakers to flex and settle, that’s just me being over cautious though. I do the same whenever I’ve installed car speakers and subs just because whenever I hear of someone blowing their speakers I wonder if they maxed the volume while listening to the Beastie Boys on day one? I just noticed something in the back of the system. I believe there is a little cooling fan on the back to keep the electronics cool, a nice plus to keep it from overheating. I’ve purchased other audio systems in the past and Would read reviews where people would say the bass was great. When I would listen, the bass would be too flat for me- NOT with this system. The shell is also hard core and a compliment in any room.
Anyways, no regrets. The best time to grab these are during Christmas. They jump in price about $100 otherwise, so if you’re going to get one, now would be good. Sony products have never let me down, especially in the audio department. The lights on this system can be turned off if you like or adjusted so it doesn’t flash. Pairing with your phone takes a sec.
No regrets with purchasing these. All together I’ve made 4 purchases.
