Sony GTK-XB90 High-Power Portable Party Speaker System

Tried using this as a karaoke speaker at my house using a 16 channel mixer plugged into the mic input. Worked fine. Got very loud, ok bass (do not expect to hear the extra low freq though, like the super low bass drops you hear in a lot of current pop or dance music) decent thump & definitely enhances standard bass tones. Our biggest complaint is it sounded very monaural. I know it is a mono speaker but I hoped/expected a clearer sound. I’m very picky about sound so for the average person, this is a great speaker. Great for a big party to blast some music at high or low volumes. It just wasn’t for me & I will be exchanging it for another.

When i bought this speaker I plugged it in right away and played it inside my home full blast I remember thinking to my self hmm this doesnt sound very good. I didn't realize it the time that maybe being 3 feet in front of a loud speaker may make it seem like it has poor sound. So I pulled the speaker outside and OMG this thing performs well outside, the sound just carries. I take this to my Softball games and at 3/4 volume I can put the speaker at one homerun the left field foul pole then stand at the right field homerun foul pole and I am still able to here not just the beat an rhythm of the song but the words of the songs as well.

The sound is good,it's not great but I'm very picky. what I was looking was a portable speaker that's rechargeable and loud this fit exactly that, it's got great punch , battery last a long time and the sound is very good for what you're getting ,I expected the lights to project a little more in the room, also I didn't care for The recommended apps. But my DJ app worked great. I was hoping to buy a custom carry bag from Sony since it was sold to be portable, but they do not sell one. There is only 2 other speakers on the market that will give a punch and are battery powered and they are more money. I'm very happy with my decision.
