Review on Sony SRS-XB43 Extra Bass Wireless Portable Bluetooth Speaker - Blue (Renewed) by Devaraja Devaraja ᠌

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Not even the worst quality I've ever seen, it's a disappointment.

A complete disappointment. I returned this marketing hyped junk to the seller. The column is not worth the money even with the discount. I wanted to buy a speaker with high-quality sound, but I got a boombox for youngsters. To get acceptable sound quality for Hi-Res audio lovers, you will have to choose a speaker with WiFi to eliminate the use of buggy BT with its useless codecs in conjunction with WiFi. I definitely recommend passing this product to those for whom sound quality is important, and not stupid light music.

Pros
  • Traditional SONY presence of NFC
Cons
  • The bass is unreasonably much, it cannot be called high-quality, it simply clogs the rest of the sound. The speaker performs medium and especially high frequencies extremely poorly. High frequencies are almost inaudible, despite listening to FLAC files with the LDAC 990 kbps codec. You have to turn the equalizer. Moreover, in some tracks, for example, singing Tibetan bowls, the speaker produces a real squeak instead of a high-frequency sound. Those. acoustics are not able to lose it - just tin! It is not possible to listen to music via BT using the LDAC 990 kbps codec and at the same time use WiFi on the transmitting device, the sound is interrupted. And this became especially noticeable after ating the speaker firmware to version 3700. This happens for one simple reason, because the source uses one chip for WiFi and Bluetooth, and obviously it cannot cope with the load. You have to use the mobile Internet at this time if you transmit sound from a smartphone in order to exclude sound interruptions. Which for many will limit the use of streaming HiFi services in the absence of unlimited mobile Internet on the tariff. Also, the disadvantages include a cheap sticker sticker with the SONY logo.
