With the X-Series, users can fill any type of space with widespread sound, whether it's indoor or outdoor. The XP700, XP500 and XG500 all feature Sony's innovative X-Balanced Speaker Units. The non-circular diaphragm gives more sound pressure with less distortion by maximizing the area of the speaker to offer a richer, clearer sound.
The XP700 has three front2 High-efficiency Tweeters and one rear High-efficiency Tweeter, delivering Omnidirectional Party Sound with punchy bass.
The XP500 and XG500 have two front High-efficiency Tweeters that combine to offer Powerful Party Sound. Plus, the XG500 features passive radiators that are optimized to reproduce clear bass sound for the ultimate listening experience.
All three speakers also feature MEGA BASS, which allows users to dial up the bass on their speaker to create a powerful soundscape.
The XG500 features an IP66 water resistance and dustproof3 rating so customers can use it by the pool, for a picnic at the park or for a relaxing day at the beach. The XG500 is made with durable water-repellent mesh that keeps the speaker dry. Additionally, the XP700 and XP500 have an IPX44 water resistance rating, to keep the music going even if a few raindrops fall.
The XG5005, XP7006 and XP5007 all feature long-lasting battery life. If the speakers begin to run out of battery power, the quick charge feature provides additional playback time for extended listening8. All three speakers also feature Battery Care Mode, which stops the speaker from reaching 100 percent charge to increase the lifespan of the battery.
The full X-Series line-up features a comfortable handle that makes carrying them easy.
All-new ambient speaker lighting creates a modern and subtle ambience. Select from a variety of different lighting patterns9 that bring either energy to parties or soothing shades for a quiet night in.

Both the XP700 and XP500 have multiple layouts and can be positioned either horizontally or vertically. No matter which layout is selected, a sensor on the XP700 will optimize the sound for that setup10. All three speakers come with Party Connect to allow users to connect up to 100 compatible speakers, which then sync to the music and lights.
The speakers are also BLUETOOTH compatible and come with USB play and USB charging. If a user's smartphone is running low on battery power, customers can plug the smartphone into the speaker and have it charge directly11.
