Reviews
Sony SRS-XV500 Portable Bluetooth Party Speaker - Black is rated 4.8 out of 5 by 15.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fantastic piece of kit, great sound quality [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a fantastic piece of kit. It charges quickly, and has a long-lasting battery life, meaning it can be used literally anywhere. It's also splash proof (although I didn't test how waterproof it is!) Sound quality is amazing, and easy to connect to BlueTooth. The touch controls on the top are responsive and easy to understand. Hidden behind a rubber panel in the back are two 6mm inputs for mic/guitar, with separate volume control, USB input, and 3.5mm output. The coloured lights also look great. We've used it at home, in the garden, and in a warehouse where we were working - and the bass and depth of sound were incredible.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great but bigger than expected. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Was not too sure what to expect but I must say I was shocked at the size of the speaker, so look at measurements to avoid surprises! But must say the set up was easy and took no more than a minute or so. The sounds quality is good and if we felt like it we could put the lights on too, glad that we have the choice . Only issue I have is not with the speaker but the fact I have to set one device aside for bluetoothing as when I open another app the music stops! Nothing to do with Sony at all. This will be at its best when having a social gathering and the charge holding of the battery means that it will last as long as a garden party or BBQ.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fantastic Bluetooth Party Speaker from Sony [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This SONY SRSXV500 is a brilliant portable bluetooth speaker. Straight from unboxing it was clear this was a speaker with great build quality. It is so easy to connect with your phone and once the Sony Music Center App is downloaded its so easy to control. The Speaker looks fanstastic inside or outside, its well designed with a great control panel on top as well as a slot to put your phone in. There are minimal instructions but not really needed as its so simplistic to use. The 1st time I heard the sound i was blown away by its capabilities to produce such a complete sound from a single unit. Whether listening to Rock, Pop or Classical it handles all so well producing a rich full sound, the Mega Bass is just that...it almost makes the room vibrate. Battery life from a single charge is as described at around 25 hours. The lights on the speaker are a great addition and really bring some atmosphere in the evening..these can be adjusted or switched off. I'm looking forward to using it outside in the summer when it will bring any party to life. A number of my friends have seen and listened to the speaker and they couldn't believe the sound it produced. In summary another great Sony product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Ideal party speaker with plenty of bass. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the 1st “party speaker” that I’ve ever tried, previously I have had an old Hi-Fi system from the 80’s, ear buds, headphones, a TV sound bar and recently a mains powered 360 spatial speaker. This XV500 is designed for a whole different type of listening experience. It’s a solidly built unit and weighs in around 11 kilos which gives it a nice solid mass but also keeps it “portable” for shorter distances. There are a range of connections and inputs so if you are having a party, the best feature is that the speaker is splash proof for those spilt drinks and the odd bit of rain if you’re outside in the UK! There is a handy slot on the top to stand your tablet, iPad, mobile phone or other media players in. And, if you are “old-school” then you can even connect via the aux-in mini jack connection behind a splash-proof cover on the rear of the unit. There is also a USB port which you can use to charge a device or play music from a pen-drive. The main control panel is a range of touch controls except for the power button, which a reassuring rubber push button. You can select the input method from Bluetooth, audio-in or USB. Note that the USB, Audio in are behind a rubber cover on the rear, but there are also input ports for a microphone and guitar each with their own rotary volume controls and effect controls. Also on the top of the unit there are the volume controls, play/pause button (which doubles up as skip forward or reverse), mega bass and the light button. The LED arrays are hidden in the handles, which looks really cool when it synchs with the beat of the music. The light option does kick out a nice effect in low light conditions but I would save the battery during the day! The built in battery only takes approx. 3 hours to fully charge and can last up to 25 hours depending upon a variety of options. It obviously consumes the power more quickly if the listening volume, mega bass, and light shows are all running at the same time. There is a Stamina button that helps extend the battery life by preventing the lights and limiting the output, but for me there won’t be many situations where I would want to party for that long. If you did you can always run it directly off the mains connection. At maximum volume you do get a bit more volume on mains electricity, but personally I wouldn’t need to run it at that level. This is a good speaker for outside use or larger capacity rooms because it has a thumping bass and extra ‘Mega Bass’ available if required. I already have the Sony Music Centre and once connected that gave me further options with the lights, power, and sound. There is also another app “Fiestable” which will link to any supported mobile and allow a range of controls and displays, but probably isn’t something I intend to use. The overall sound is very good and the wide range of connectivity gave me plenty to choose from. I’ve used it in the garden, my home office, and the kitchen diner area. The only caution would be to ensure that you’re on good terms with the neighbours when using it at high volume outside!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent Party Speaker [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wonderful clear, room filling sound with excellent punchy bass. Everything from haunting acoustic vocals to deep vibrating dance tracks are projected easily around any space. Placing the speaker near the far end of the garden was like an open air concert. It’s reassuring, with the great British weather, that the speaker is water resistant. It’s easy to connect the XV500 to my XB31 speaker, allowing me to seamlessly enjoy the music in the kitchen when preparing food/drink. I’ve never really been big on karaoke, and don’t own a microphone ( no need to upset the neighbours). Therefore I’m unable to say how it performs, but I can imagine that with the powerful speakers, and also the ability to connect a guitar, it would make an ideal karaoke/busking machine. The speaker really comes “alive” when it gets dark. The lights emit a colourful, synchronised display that is quite mesmerising. Overall, an excellent, powerful speaker that will be the centre of any party, indoors or out.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A Great Addition to Sony's Party Speaker Line Up [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm a big fan of Sony's party speakers. I already have an older and slightly bigger version - the XP700. This gets nearly daily use at home and in the garden, so i was very keen to see how this newest addition stacked up. Looks Definitely a sleeker, more refined look. Its a lot less angular - much smoother and rounded overall. It does stick to the typical format of handles top and bottom, containing the various LEDs. Control buttons are still on the top for easy access. This version is a lot smaller than my previous XP700, making it even more portable and lighter. No troubles at all moving this around the house and garden. The music reactive lights are great! You have a few different modes to choose from via the app, and can even turn them off completely if you prefer. Sound Your not going to be disappointed with the sounds that come out of this speaker thats for sure. It handles all types of music well, and especially comes alive with a more dance / EDM type of music - especially with the Mega Bass feature. It rumbles!! Clarity of sound is still good too, and in terms of volume - it packs a surprising punch given its smaller size! Connectivity As usual with this series, you have bluetooth - supporting SBC, AAC and LDAC. Connection strength is good and the bluetooth audio quality is great. You also have a 3.5mm stereo input for wiring in phones, mp3 players etc. USB input, and MIC / Guitar inputs. There isnt much you cant hook up to it. Summary Overall im very happy with this speaker. Sound is good, connectivity is good. Battery life is exceptional - this will keep going longer than you will! For the price i dont think it can be beaten. Highly recommended.
