🔊 Sony SRS-XB33: Ultimate Portable Speaker with EXTRA BASS, IP67 Waterproof, 24-Hour Battery, Bluetooth, Built-In Mic for Phone Calls - Black Review

This speaker is bigger and much heavier than the 41, but it really doesn't matter. Bluetooth is great and easily plays music from two devices without having to manually switch. Live mode has improved a lot and overall you can hear mjch's voice clearer than 41. The charging speed is much faster so overall very happy with this speaker.

The sound quality of this speaker is good , flashing lights are nice touch. However, it's not nearly loud enough for my purpose. At full volume with my phone set to maximum, the speaker just fills the 12x10 interior. As it is intended to be used in PWC where it needs to overcome engine noise I'm not sure it will be loud enough. I suspected this would happen when Sony refused to discuss specs like SPL or performance and compare them to the competition. Unfortunately I have waited over a week for

Decided to try the XB43. Man I wasn't disappointed. It has good sound quality, great bass (even my friends praised the bass for a portable speaker), and amazing battery life. A plus. The lighting effects are very cool. I also saw a built in party mode and stereo speaker options (had no idea when I first bought it). Well, I decided to bite the bullet and get another one. Not disappointed. general. I set both up in stereo speaker mode. And together they really create a stereo feel - better than…

First, I ordered an XB43 exclusively for the upcoming trip. I originally wanted to buy the JBL Charge series for portability but stumbled upon the XB33 which led me to this beast. I took a chance and pre-ordered it instead of going with JBL (always didn't find the sound of their gear what I was looking for). I have to say this is exactly what I wanted - a solid, tight bass and EQ mix control to help bring out whatever style of music you might be into (I play mostly rock and EDM, my wife loves…

So I've been looking for my all-in-one BT speaker for a while without spending too much and of the ones I've had, the Sony SRS-XB33 is the clear winner. Scroll down for a direct Sony speaker review. I used to have an Oontz Angle 3 Ultra and briefly a Tribit Maxsound Plus and a JBL Charge 4. I still have the Oontz speakers (two in a pair of stereos) and they are excellent value for money, especially as a pair of stereos . For me, this would be a clear winner for less than $100 (for both!)…
