Sony has launched the new X-Series speakers - SRS-XP500, SRS-XG500 and SRS-XP700 in the Middle East. The speakers all feature Sony’s innovative X-Balanced Speaker Units. The non-circular diaphragm gives more sound pressure and less distorted sound by maximizing the area of the speaker, which means you’ll get a richer, clearer sound no matter what style of music you’re listening to.
The XP700 has three front High-efficiency Tweeters and one rear High-efficiency Tweeter delivering Omnidirectional Party Sound with punchy and deep bass and plenty of clarity. The XP500 and XG500 have two front High-efficiency tweeters that combine to give you Powerful Party Sound. Plus the XG500 features passive radiators that are optimized to reproduce clear bass sound and all together you get a great sound worth sharing.
The MEGA BASS feature across the range allows you to dial up the bass on your speaker, providing you with deep and punchy bass. With the new X-Series speakers you can enjoy your music like its live. With LIVE SOUND mode you can recreate that unique atmosphere and re-live your favourite music experiences, over and over again.
The brand new XG500 has an IP66 water-resistant and dustproof rating that means you can enjoy powerful party sound just about anywhere. You can use it by the pool, at the park for a picnic or at the beach for a relaxing day and not have to worry about damage. The XG500 is made with durable water-repellent mesh that will keep the speaker dry and your music blasting. The XP700 and XP500 have an IPX4 water resistant rating, so you can keep your party going even if a few raindrops fall.
If you find your speakers running out of battery, there’s no need to worry with quick charging on these speakers. All 3 speakers feature Battery Care Mode, which stops your speaker reaching 100% charge to increase the lifespan of the battery. The new X-Series line-up all feature a comfortable handle that makes carrying it easy. If your speaker is in your room but you want to lay by the garden, you can simply pick up your speaker and go.
An all-new ambient lighting produces modern and subtle lighting. You can select a variety of different lighting patterns that can bring energy to parties or soothing sombre shades to a quiet night in. The speakers come with inputs for Microphone and/or Guitar, making these speakers the perfect late-night entertainment. Both the XP700 and XP500 have multiple layouts and can be positioned either horizontally or vertically. Whichever way you choose, a sensor on the XP700 will optimise the sound for that layout and provide you with great sound.
All three speakers are BLUETOOTH® compatible so you can pair the speaker directly to your BLUETOOTH® enabled device and have it streamed straight to your speaker. All three speakers come with Party Connect to allow you to connect up to 100 compatible speakers, which then sync to the music and lights. The new X-Series speakers come with USB play and USB charging to be the perfect party speaker. You can plug in and play music with a USB port to play your digital files. If your smartphone is running low on battery you can even plug it into the speaker and have it charged directly.
The new line-up is compatible with both Sony | Music Center and Fiestable apps. With Sony | Music Center you can select playlists, cue the next song, change lighting patterns and sound modes all from the dance floor. Fiestable allows you to access fun features to help create the ultimate party atmosphere, such as making a party playlist, karaoke functions including Voice Changer and Echo, plus DJ control to add sound effects.
