Awesome video.

[@BA-rh5hy]

Great review and video. Thanks for showcasing this really cool speaker. I would def consider this for the man cave.

[@jasonthomas7880]

Don't buy this.. look at the JBL 310..party box

[@OJG-ho7jo]

I have it love it its loud & bass hit hard vibes

[@DeneF]

Thanks Mr OB.

[@ITStechy]

I got the XP500s (x2) on a deal for $200 each. $400 pr for stereo that will sound much much better at a little more than half the cost. Get a optical converter for a few extra bucks with an elevated speaker stand system and you have the best of “features” that will elevate any party up to 25 people just fine. After that, ya better dig deeper and go for JBLs - Party of 75-150 ish , go for the JBL 1000s!!!

[@Pupp3tmaster-uq3yz]

everyone who's going to get this speaker is going get it for it's loudness and bass.

[@marchevensiacor4596]

Can this be used while charging?

[@robertdepesci3418]

does it run without battery in? like does it run on AC power?

[@johnm7882]

Awsome speaker. I like all the different options it has. The only downside is the price. But other than that it's great.

[@ericB3444]

More than that the radio is BIG, SONNYBALL. SHE IS BIGGER THAN OUR APPLEHEAD GUY.

[@santinobardz7398]

older sony like early 00s 90s where the best when it comes to sound quality. but people nowadays only cares about the loudness, more bass and lights. more lights the better.

[@LukeR1M]

Correct. And that's why JBL Partyboxes are the most popular. Checks all these boxes.

Can you pair two for stereo or surround output? (Sorry if I missed that).

[@firestar_1291]

Yes you can (around 9:05 ), in fact up to 100 speakers

No you can only play one at a time, just way too complicated for software 🙄

Not gonna lie, I thought that was a giant soda can with the SONY branding on it 😂

[@ln2deep]

I got this because I was offered a super good discount ($250) on it and otherwise wouldn't have got a party speaker. I just wanted a bluetooth speaker at home.
It's actually a really nice bluetooth speaker for the home (though pretty large of course). I just keep it at 10-15% volume and the sound is very pure and the base is so smooth and well defined. I can't stress enough how pleasing the bass is. With the battery life and all the other options it is super versatile and just feels like a really good product.

[@KingBlade76]

Is it 800 watts?

[@kinanalhawat6753]

Its costs 500 now

[@JaysStraightUpReviews]

IMO, anybody considering this speaker should also look at the Sony XP700, which is very similar, but only $398 compared to the $648 priced XV800. The XP700 is the older model, but again, very similar in most ways. Neither one of those are as impressive as the JBL Partybox 310, which is currently $550, but just recently came off a weeks long price cut that had it at $480.

[@pablocervantes7264]

I had two sony xp500
Paired as stereo
And I was very impressed with the sound quality very detailed natural and balanced for a bluetooth speaker
The only problem is that to perform their best they need to be plugged in to the power
I watched a lot of TH-cam videos and reviews on the internet and everyone seemed to agree that the jbl110 was better I went to the store and demoed the 110 and I pull the trigger and bought two
I Pair them the as stereo LR
And what a disappointment 😞
Jbl is only focused on bass yes a lot of bass and treble
The midrange non existing no details in the music
And one thing I notice is that the jbls perform better than the sony in single mode
As stereo the sony killed the jbl completely

[@kellyaustin7487]

I probably wouldn't buy a "party speaker" for audio files and sound quality. I'm thinking loud volumes with deep bass as it is called a party speaker.

[@ien2023]

You care compare to a pro sound speaker. No XLR input. This is made for the average consumer and not for professional gig.

[@killasic]

They need to lose the lights. A more classier, refined look would appeal to a whole other clientele.

[@kellyaustin7487]

Good speaker but definitely overpriced.

[@EdwardCheek]

Cute gray shorts

[@ericB3444]

Thanks they are actually not grey. They are elephant. Please respect all elephants. This is they color, sonnyball.
