This or the JBL exteme3?

With all due respect Sony Support, I don't think they were looking for your opinion as it's clearly biased. I can tell you I've owned 3 JBL extremes, 2 of them I had to return due to poor battery and it's plagued the product for years. The last one I bought I thought they fixed their issues but alas they have not. Battery did not fully charge after only 3 months of use. For that reason alone I will not buy a JBL product ever again. I can only hope Sony batteries are not crap like JBL's. Don't take my word for it either. It's well documented all over the Internet.

From the Sony Japan product page (for some reason power output not listed on the US site): Practical maximum output When power cord is connected: 35W + 35W When driven by built-in rechargeable battery: 30W + 30W

Hi Mashuu, Thank you for reaching out us. We're sorry to hear some issues that you are experiencing with your XG3000 speaker. Allow us to help make this a better experience. The sound quality may vary depending on the source, device, connection, and music you are playing. You can use the speaker without connecting to the app. However, connecting the Music Center app provides additional functionality and customization options. The Music Center app allows you to control various settings and features including sound quality setting and equalizer adjustment. If you are experiencing lack of sound quality when the speaker is not connected to the app, you may check the sound settings of the connected device and make sure that the speaker is connected properly, whether it's via Bluetooth or a wired connection. May we contact you to help? If so, please contact us by sending an email Sony E-support that you can find on Sony’s official website.

Is the bass adjustable?

Hello, thanks for your question. No, but you can enable/disable the Mega Bass effect by either pressing the MEGA BASS button on the speaker or by accessing the Sony | Music Center app on your smartphone. With the 25 hours of battery life and IP67 water and dust resistance of the XG300 wireless speaker, you can enjoy a whole day of party from the beach, to the park, and to the pool. Stream anywhere and get things booming with Party Connect where you can combine up to 100 compatible X-series wireless speakers with BLUETOOTH technology and sync your music so everyone dances to the same beat. Make sure to download the Sony | Music Center app to Optimize audio settings, select playlist, cue the next song, and control Party Connect. You may visit our Support site for more information. Hope this helps. ~Earl
