Review on Sony SRS-XB13 Portable Compact Speaker - πŸ”Š Extra BASS, IP67 Waterproof, Bluetooth Enabled (Black, SRSXB13/B) by Tony Reid

Revainrating 5 out of 5

This little speaker is very impressive for its size.

Firstly I have an XB43. XB43 is great. Why would I buy this when I have an XB43 you ask? Well the XB43 is huge and quite a pain to carry around. The XB13 is small enough to fit in my pocket, on my belt and on a hook on my toolbox/lunchbox. It's so easy to wear I don't even notice it's on. Hell, I even attached it to the back of my SnapBack cap since we don't allow headphones at work. People complain about the volume. It's hard for me to talk to colleagues at maximum volume, so I have to turn it down. I'll use my DB meter if anyone is interested. But with a speaker this small, I'm more worried about sound quality than volume. Sounds fantastic. Even at maximum volume there is no distortion. The bass booms surprisingly. I've never had speakers this size, not even for bass. I smile when I see how small this speaker is and how spacious the sound is. Very impressive. Mid and high frequencies are clear (not tinny). The battery lasts 10 hours of work with 40% remaining battery at an average volume of 70%. If I drop this one and hit it with a forklift, I'll deliver another one on site the same day. As said, this is an impressive speaker for its size. worth your money. I've never heard a mini speaker like this, period. If you want portability with minimal loss of sound quality, this bad boy is worth your hard-earned money.

Pros
  • Just connect and stream music with bluetooth
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something
