Review on Sony SRS-XB12 Mini Bluetooth Speaker - Loud Extra Bass, Portable 🔊 Wireless Speaker with Bluetooth, Waterproof and Dustproof Travel Music Speaker - Red SRS-XB12/R by Ryan Nguyen

At the age of 71 I know a thing or two about music and how it comes out of a speaker should sound. I also know how it should NOT sound like. Music should sound alive and happy. Melodic and rhythmic tones shouldn't hide behind a menacing dark curtain turning it into a sloppy, muddy mess. I wanted a small portable speaker that would fit in my travel bag. The Sony SRS-XB12 got me there, but only after a long and tiring journey. YouTube is a good place to listen to speakers. Use headphones and be aware of the deplorable condition of some used home microphones. Such a small speaker has obvious limitations. I am amazed at the purity of the vocals and instruments and the natural tones of the bass. Remember that bass notes are produced by plucking the strings on a bass guitar. Even synthesized bass sounds better when it's clear and not muffled. Sony's predecessor to this speaker, the XB10, had way too much of that nasty, dirty sound. And here's another important note. Even today's young hipsters must appreciate the quality when listening to recorded noise that no one dares to call "music". When a rapper rants about it Killing cops or what drugs are the coolest, maybe his fans would benefit if they could hear the lyrics clearly. (Or maybe not). Either way, Sony engineers have mastered this little gem of a speaker. Do you prefer the gentle delight of Dean Martin? s "Magic Is the Moonlight" or a rocking knockout version of Sandy Nelson's 1962 "Let There Be Drums" by Ventures, this speaker will make it admirable. Even some crazy modern stuff that doesn't make sense actually sounds realistic and fun on this speaker! And understand this.
