The 43 is a nice looking speaker, I got another one instead of buying a hifi to get a stereo image in my living room and they look cool standing upright, placed far apart.. about 12 feet.. they produce an acceptable stereo sound if you are not too picky and if they are crashing the price on them I would have to say if you can get two XB43s for 200bucks you are getting a very decent stereo sound at home AND a two rugged outdoor speakers!.. VALUE FOR MONEY.

I got XG300 two weeks ago. Clearance $99!. What a bargain! Sounds great in real life. I always avoided bluetooh. I used aux or rca inputs. I have to say Sony's LDAC is legit, it holds 30 to 75% more data, and more data gives you the extra music that is usally lost. Amazing.

just bought a second Sony XB43 to run as a stereo pair with my Sony X950H tv and much say amazing .....but what Sony needs to do is make a wireless subwoofer that compatible with party connect as well as bring Dolby Atmos to the table considering that format has enough for 64 channels of audio thats would be amazing if that happens eventually. 🇨🇦😉🍿🍀

I got the Sony SRS XB43 for $140 around 1,5 year ago and it haven't seen much use. Posistioned right its decent at low volymen but as soon as you turn it up it sounds forced, aggressive & harsh... I get sound fatigued so fast and it has to do with the lvl of distortion. I'm just looking for a better Bluetooth speaker with better audiophile representation, a warmer more natural sound that can play louder w.o distorting. Have anyone done a comparison btw the audio from the SRS XB-43 and the W-King X10? It seems that the XB43 is a bit heavy 4 what it performs when it comes to loud, so what's better than it around 3-6 kg blutooth speakers?

xg 300 sounds louder but a bit hollow? like a chamber or something.

@Jason75913 7 ай бұрын

XG300 has a bigger problem with excess resonances inside of itself. Typically, cheap speakers lack material inside to reduce the excess resonances, which causes that hollow/boxy sound. Excess resonances, if extreme enough, can cause everything to sound very veiled and unnatural, plus it reduces audio fidelity and excess resonances even reduce how much fine nuance of the music that the speakers can reproduce. The same happens with closed-back headphones, too.

Had an XB43 and really wanted to like it but it had a few issues that made me sell it. 1) Wasn’t as loud as I expected but did sound good imo. 2) I HATED that once the battery hit 70% the volume went down. This was my biggest gripe because it basically meant that I couldn’t listen to the speaker at full volume most of the time and it was already too quiet at full volume. Very stupid on Sony’s part. 3) Idk about you guys but the bass was sooo lacking. Extra Bass did absolutely nothing, i kept switching back and forth and didnt notice a difference. I ended up getting a XG500 that while it isnt as loud as I expected, it has the bass i want and is still decently loud and soooo good looking. I also got it certified refurb on ebay for $200 with a 2yr warranty and sold the XB for $100 meaning i got the XG500 for around $110! Good video man!

If mega bass didn't do any difference then either you had a defective piece or a fake . Megs bass just transforms the speaker into a beast .

@JohnsonPBX Жыл бұрын

I really have to disagree with you in the XB43 part. I had two of them and their sound was superb. While I agree that one would expect it to be much louder given how big and heavy it is, its sound is still very good. As the other person commenting mentions, turning Mega Bass on or off really does a huge difference. If you didn't notice it, most likely you got a defective speaker or a fake Zony hahaha. Additionally, what you mention about the volume is not true. In fact, the XB43 was the first one that did not reduce its volume at all when about to discharge. You do hear the voice that says "Please charge", but it never reduces its volume. It just stays full volume until you either plug it in or it just shuts down when the battery is discharged. If yours reduced its volume at 70% battery, you were ripped off witha Sorny unit hahaha.
