If you've got $400 you should get 2 W-King T9s lol I just upgraded from the D9 and I love it.
I know I'm old school, but I like how it still has an aux jack. Yes bluetooth 5.2 is pretty great, but nothing beats the ease and quality of a cable plugged into anything from a laptop, to a 40 year old Walkman. The aux cable needs more love.
Ain’t no school like old school. And u right nothing beats the quality of direct contact. Nothing!
AUX always! true quality!
Yes, had this speaker (SONY) for a few days now, incredible deal , couldn’t be happier. Just charged and plugged in my old iPod 📱, can’t beat it. Great reviews!
I'm a farmer and after completing different works every day , evening I spent some time with my Sony XB43 & I have bought 2 of them to stereo pair on my bedroom & I have my custom EQ , which makes me feel more relaxed & refreshing, I don't use the lights of speaker . The sound from it is more balanced which feels really good & I spent hours listening to it & I'm happy with it.
I just got the sony srs xg-300. I don't have anything to compare it to because this is the first quality Bluetooth speaker I've owned. I have had high quality house sterio systems with full suzed speakers. I definitely know quality when i see and hear it With that said, i love this speaker. I'm not looking to piss my neighbors off. I've outgrown that.
While I don't own a JBL, but I do have a friend with a very large JBL speaker, not priced too differently than the XG300, I do own the XG300, and without tweaking any of the default audio profiles, the JBL was just punchier than the Sony.
Once I went into the audio settings and upped the bass and the mid it was very close between the two. I think that's one aspect of these devices that gets overlooked in these reviews. I get the whole trying to be neutral in the reviews, but I think it's something people should be made more aware of.
So if you don't like the default sound profile for the Sony, just remember it does have an EQ in the Music app that let's you find what works best for you and your style of listening.
exactly
I have used both jbl and sony speakers for years and I have noticed one thing that the first impression of a jbl is wow ...it has great bass and treble is so clear and sony will be like oh it sounds good but nothing outstanding... but wait after listening them for a long hours you will realize that bass on jbl is good but that sibilance is just so annoying. That's why I gave up on jbl . That's my personal opinion , nothing against jbl fans . So don't bother replying with abusive comments
You nailed it. I always love the JBL spind at first, but after a short time, I get listening fatigue. With any Sony speaker I can go for hours without a problem.
I am absolutely getting one of these Sony XG300s. I like the design, the features, and the sound quality from what I have seen across many reviews.
You posted your comment 7 months ago. I hope you got the xg-300. While the app has a 3 band eq, if you have a Samsung galaxy series or, i believe any Android phone, it has, i believe a 9 band eq. You can really spend some time and tweak it to near personal perfection. I just got mine yesterday. While this is my first Bluetooth speaker, i do have decades of sterio quality experience and enjoyment. This xg-300 is very impressive.
@@Godric_71if you have to tweak the eq using 9 bands, the device is moot. The point of high wuality audio devices is that they are optimal out of the box. If the device cannot produce the quality that was intended by the creator, the device is not good enough. Facts.
Comparison is the thief of all joy - I like that quote...speaks volumes honestly
Llkp
Thanks for this review. I'm glad I bought this now!
Agree! 😂 The design is the one thing that makes you addicted about it. This speaker is really great and beautiful on its own. Just dont compare it to JBL, then you will really appreciate it much more ♥️
that smile is the best advertisement. I found a guy selling his for $150 because he wants the JBL. He works at a best buy. lol. I'm stoked
Yes! Just because a speaker isn't the best, doesn't mean it's a bad speaker which I think some people miss in comparison videos. I have Harmon Kardon go play, Studio 4, Studio 5, Urbanears Ralis, Braven XL, Tronsmart T6 Max and the One More Bluetooth speaker and I love them all even though they have different sound signatures. I think some speakerphiles get offended too easily. So while you're doing comparison videos, also do videos focused on one speaker and it's best features. It might help if you had a rating system (like an 8 out of 10) to let people see a speaker can be good even though it's not the best. Good video!!
This is a really level-headed take on these types of speakers (or anything at all). I'm completely fine that it's not "the best". I just love nice music and that's all I really care about. These speakers bring it out.
I bought this last 2 days ago.
I charged it because is says "low battery", I charged it and waited for 10 mins, I found it weird because it said "battery is at 40%" and after I waited for 53 minutes, it's still says "battery is at 40%"..
I'm not sure what's the problem is because it keeps saying "battery is at 40%", it's not saying the exact battery percentage of the speaker 😢.
Any advice? Or any ideas why this thing is happening? 😢
You are such a cool guy bru, love your videos
I totally agree with you
Bass +3 is sweet spot for Sony speaker
That's a pretty sony thing 😉
You have to spend a little bit time with it, customize it or adapt to it and then sometimes you can get some great deals with Sony products which are pretty fun in most cases.
However some had bad firmware support or bugs/missing features that got never fixed 😌
But Sony bluetooth speakers are great, I use them since I changed my old JBL Extreme against a pair of XB-41s. In Stereomode it was a pretty nice feeling and with some EQing it also sounded great 👍
Like the t-shirt and great review. Going to Best Buy today.
When talking and fawning over the handle, it's the small things that make something great. It's the details that pull everything together.
I found one in Target the other day and in my opinion this speaker sounds better than my brother’s $700 Bose speaker. I’ve never liked the way JBL speakers sound, Sony just sounds cleaner, warmer, richer bass, honestly don’t know what people are talking about saying the bass isn’t impressive.
They haven’t had real world use in most cases I find
thanks for the vidéo. did you use in with a bluetooth TV ?
Love the shirt bro
If you use tbe app to adjust eq. Then later connect to the speaker with a different phone that doenst have the app at all does the speaker still have that custom eq stored in it? Or does it revert back to the nasty sound?
Just bought the sony I was so impressed with the sound I bought another one to get stereo, I love the JBL speaker but the sony is as you say so much better to use in the house 😀
Do you know if the Sony SRS-XG300B works while charging, so that you don't have the surprise of running out of battery and you can immediately put it on charge and it will continue to work.
my only problem with this is the volume sometimes go down automatically by itself.
maybe because of low battery of overheating?
is there a setting to turn this off?
I just got this refurbed from EBay 129.00 in gray love it it very nice yo javelin to use custom mode and crank up the eq and I went into Spotify and boosted their eq now the speaker is awesome I love the carrying handle it’s lighter than the XB 43 the design of the xg300 is awesome love it great design and sound it’s much better then the xe200/300 bump up the eq and you got a great speaker
Did it come out good? Was thinking about doing the same but seems too good to be true
@@scarface817funkytown it’s more robust I use it in my pool class does a great job I have two of them even better it like the xb43 but easier to transport with the built it handle sometimes they go for 109.00 you get the charging plug with it for that price you can’t go wrong the lights are hard to see the XB line had great lights
@@billdepalma161 nice thank you. No issues with it being refurbished?
@@scarface817funkytown nope it looks brand new mine are perfect in looks and performance comes in a generic box is the only difference between new and refurbished
Just got this for €166, best purchase ever!
great video! i got jbl, soundcore boom plus, tribit blast BUT? i always grab my sony xg500s for some crazy reason. i like the the sg300. it reminds me of a little brother.lmao!! i guess i just like the spaceage look of the sonys!!!!
The jbl is louder but the sony is more clear and crisp.
does anyone know the rms watts of the Sony xg300 Lowe's home improvement website list it having 70 watts ...and another you tuber told me it has 75 watts Sony doesn't say on their website does anyone know for sure what it is ??? thanks anyone
Still waiting on Stormbox Blast. A $200 champ!
Trust me, you won’t regret
I had this speaker but returned it. Its not a bad speaker but the bass is not puchy enough even after tweaking. I also had the JBL extreme 3 but even though it has more punchy bass the overall sound profile doesnt suit hip hop music. Listen to Aint no Fun by Snoop Dogg and you will know what I mean. The best speaker in this category I found was the Motion boom plus by Soundcore. However its to big just to put in your hand luggage. Its hard to strike the right balance with these speakers. I will stick with the bose flex for the time being. Good little speaker
I'm surprised you enjoy the portability that much, the size of the speaker would make it a pain for me. I own an Xtreme 2 and carrying it around the house is a bit tiresome
1:56 I noticed it after uploading. 🤣 oh well. 🤦🏾♂️
As far as the portability, that just shows how much of a difference the handle makes over having a strap. It's night and day.
Tribit Stormbox blast
Sony xg300 or jbl charge 5, what speaker should I buy? I would like to use the speaker for some indoor partys. I wonder if Jbl charge 5 is capable of providing enough sound for 30 people party.
I'm sorry, but the Charge 5 and XG300 are not big enough for a 30 person party. It's best to consider the BoomBox 3 or X500. You can find the XG500 at discounted prices, and it's recently had an update that makes it sound GREAT!
Is it as loud as the Sony xb43
what do you do for a day job sir? just curious cause your house looks great
Thank you. This IS my main job.
Since you review lots of speaker. What speaker company does comes with pairing code blootooth? I don't like anyone could pair with the speaker
I love mine my fav even over my JBL boombox
Does this speaker have the live sound and how does it sound?
yes, its sounds quite good on certain tracks, especially indoors at moderate volumes.
I have 6 JBL speakers and bought the big mama Sony X500 for $169. That thing rocks. I have to turn down the bass
Are you kiddinge?? XG 500 is worth 450$.. it could be on sale for 400 or 380.. and how the hell were able to purchased it for only 169$?
@@meliangalgo1952 it was refurbished
@@meliangalgo1952 they are still selling them on eBay for that price 8/8/22
@@meliangalgo1952 They have it on ebay refurbished but they look brand new.
Its about sound, honestly which sounds best ?-
Target has them on deal in store only for 104.00
does the sound go down automatically when battery is under 50%? because my friend has sony xb-33 and the sound goes down when battery is under 50%... thats annoying
Mine also does
@@darrenwipf9868 is urs XG300?
@@TuanLVT no the xb33
@@TuanLVT I'd say the bass decreases not so much the volume. Is the sony xg300 a lot louder then the xb33?
@@darrenwipf9868 oh my friend have that one u got and it lowers the sound when battery is under 50%
Cool shirt
I'd buy a boombox 3 over xg500 any day and I'd buy the xg300 over the extreme any day boom box 3 destoys the xg500 in sound quality xg500 is muffled and muddy from resonance and the xg300 sound quality is slightly better then the extreme but it's alot cheap can find it on sale for $200 alot of times
The Sony has a list of $350 but is available everywhere (including Sony's site) for $300.

the only problem I seem to have with mine is the back flap keeps working itself open do u have that problem with yours ?? I'm always pushing it closed
Mine doesn't have that issue.
@@NewStuffTV1 hmm ok thanks for replying back I don't know why mine does doesn't look like there's anything wrong with it ..but flap works loose
@@NewStuffTV1 by the way love your vids honest and entertaining just like the rest of us a everyday guy ps it's hot as hell here in Ms to 😂
I somewhat agree with yoyr comments. Sony has been criticised for their lights, which I get and understand, but I'm not bothered by them. Yes aesthetically it's a nice speaker. But here's the thing, the sound tuning. Sony just has not got this right, so therefore in no way is it a $350 speaker.
In the uk it's been dropped to £199/$220 ish. That's it's pricepoint. Perhaps even a little cheaper.
Sony need to get the tuning sorted, imo it's a marginally worse sounding speaker than the XB43, which is where the XG300 problem lies. It has the base to be something very good, and a good burn in does help, but Sony needs the brighten up the sound a little.
There's too much competition out there now for it to sound the way it does. Get the tuning sorted and yes it becomes a great speaker. As it is, it isn't.
hey mate im looking to get a speaker. got about a £250 budget. what do you recommend? ive been looking at the XG300 , pulse 5 , extreme 3. im open to opinions
In my counry the sony is like 65 dollars cheaper than the jbl.And i like the design so much and my friend already has xb 43 so we can pair them up.No brainer sony ftw.
Can I custom EQ the srs xg300 within the Sony app?
Yes
@@NewStuffTV1 sweet. Just want to let you know that I appreciate your fast reply!
Do you think two XG300s would sound better than a single XG500?
Absolutely!
This speaker need more agresive bass....
It would of been a better video if you played them comparing the 2 4 the viewers.
I will save you 10 min if you grab this speaker for 200 bucks its totally worth it, buy it and you won't regret it.
Anker all the way (value for money, period)
$146 Renewed on Amazon.
I went to buy a xb43 on sale, but I saw the gx300 and used the demo and feel like if I bought the xb I'd always be regretting not buy the gx. My use is my car sound system upgraded from xb33.
Sony XG300 is like it’s all beauty with less talent

Xg300 is weak on max volume. It’s predecessors were much louder. What gives?

The Sony is now $200
Go play classic music and vocals, sony wins by far
Hell no. CHANGE THE SETTINGS! +10 bass, +8mids, -4 treble....but I like my old school rap music...once you do that it sounds bascially the same as the jbl but louder...that clearaudio+ setting is garbage and that's why it's sounds so much worse on this video... sony XG300 is equal if not better afterwards
😁😁😁👍👍👍🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
I hate all things JBL. I've never listened to them, but the reason I don't is that they're over priced and are a bad value compared to what you can buy elsewhere . For the same reason I won't buy a Mercedes Benz or a BMW. They're bad value for what you pay. I just don't buy them or want to own one.
JBL tramp stamp 😂
