    • And now the party-- the flashing LED lights, and app support are unique, interesting features you wouldn't typically find in Sony-- and yes, if you aren't interested in the LED party beat stuff you can turn it off
    • The LED lights aren't as impressive as I thought as there are only a few settings like pulsating, strobe or simple pattern.
    • However, I expect longer life now that I have seen all the lighting modes I need to see and have disabled the lighting
    • Despite its relatively short battery life, considerably shorter than advertised, I really love these speakers -- light, wonderful sound, easy to use
    • I found the lighting and party features annoying but easy to turn off
    • In Party mode the speaker flashes some strobes and has a cool light stripe that runs the front of the speaker top bottom and side that changes colors as the music is playing
    • The LED lights added some cool effects but were more effective indoors or at night.
    • The lights are fun--but they don't seem to sync with the sound coming out of the speaker.
    • In addition, the speaker cones glow with a cool white light, which not only pulses in response to the various bands of sound (highs, mids, lows), but the illumination from the cones also change their intensity, based on what the music is doing
    • It looks good and offers some led lights for visual stimulation

    • water and dirt proof/resistant), and enhanced lights
    • , app allows a lot of customizationThe Bad: Is very bass-heavy even when tuned, Default lighting can be annoying, Nonsensical “feature” for tapping on sidesThe Bottom Line: This speaker is a very good party speaker - it is very loud and the lighting is pretty cool
    • If you're looking strictly for a wireless speaker, this is ok, especially if you're in different environments and it's waterproof with nice lights (that can be turned off
    • Good volume, easy to connect and a nice light show
    • The cloth surface hasn’t seemed to pick up any stains or dirt in my time with it, the lights are pretty cool when you change them to your liking, it sounds pretty good overall with the ability to tune it, and the waterproofing means I can take it into the shower or bath without worrying about it
    • But a couple that more to my taste as I don’t like the strobe effect or fast moving lights, I just like the lights
    • Really nice sound, love the lights
    • so I don't think it's the TV.The LED lights are a cute feature and tend to keep up with the beat
    • We use it everyday, the sound quality is outstanding and the lights are fun to watch as they move along to the songs
    • This speaker is really pretty, and elegant, all white with pretty lights radiating from the outer body, and corresponding to music.
    • The sound it gives for such a portable device is nice; the lights are a fun (if frivolous) addition; and it has a very good battery life
    • The lights are cool or annoying depending on who you ask
    • We turned off the stupid lights--a bug to us olds, but you might like them
    • Instead of just on the ends, like the XB30, the lights are now a colorful strip that runs around the unit, including the sides
    • While the flashing lights are great for when I have guests, personally I enjoy the lights when I'm home alone too because I just love a bit of a light show any old time
    • The lights are super fun and aren't distracting at all.
    • The lights are super fun and aren't distracting at all.
    • It is made of durable construction and contains multiple LED strip light with smaller round LED strobe lights
    • The lighting is slick and you can tinker with it if you use the app or just stick with the settings.
    • The lights are so cool
    • I prefer my Polk speakers, which offer better sound quality, IMHO, but don’t have fancy flashing lights or “PartyBooster” sound effects, though they do cost a bit more than this Sony
    • Also, multicolored LED strobe lights will add some swank to your party
    • I like that you have the option to have a "calm" color (their term for the ones that maintain a steady light) if you want the light, but not the flashing.
    • The lights are cool and the battery lasts a long time
    • This is a nice speaker with amazing bass sounds and cool lights
    • The lights give it that extra party flair
    • The lights are cool even if they don't synch with the music
    • The app controls everything from the LED lights, EQ enhancements, and sync settings
    • The two white LED strobe lights are interesting to watch
    • Also the lights are a little silly, too
    • Programmable LED lights (that syncs with the music)- Water
    • Hopefully they'll update the app to let you totally disable the strobe lights (like, really, they're an actual health issue for some people)
    • I like the lights and the sound.
    • Very clear and heavy bass, Cool lights and long battery
    • Sony has attempted to make this a 'party' speaker, with things such as music-reactive LED lighting and the Fiestable App, which allows you to physically tap on the speaker and add cymbal, snare or bass drum hits into the music you are playing.
    • The integrated light bar and the two white LED strobe lights are great visual fun and interesting to watch
    • They might enjoy the lights and the tapping feature
    • There’s a lot of cool lights that display when it’s in use
    • I like that its water and dust proof and the lights are cool
    • The LED lights are bright and music sensitive, so they'll react to the tracks you play in subtle or not so subtle ways
    • 20 Hz–20,000 Hz (44.1 kHz sampling)Overall, I would indeed recommend this if being waterproof, dustproof, and rustproof are important to you, or if you feel the need for the gimmicky lights and PartyBooster sounds
    • The lights are pretty mesmerizing
    • The ever blinking lights might be cool in a dorm room late at night, but I don't really care for them in the middle of the day
    • The lights are great and a fun way to listen to music when you turn the lights down
    • When I had a phone that was not an iPhone, it would often disconnect from the speaker and it was a little more difficult to get to do what I want (like turn off the lights)
    • The lights are fun and bright.
    • Those lights are really cool
    • The lights are fun.
    • You can also set the lighting to "calm" with 5 different color settings, which uses a steady color scheme for the surrounding LEDs without flashing the strobes
    • This speaker has a lot going for it:++ a wonderful form factor, very easy to carry around++ a full bodied sound, neither too bright nor too muddy++ excellent volume - no need to strain to hear even in a loud room++ a great textured fabric covering, which is awesome to the touch++ stellar lights that pulse in time to the music and add a whole new level of engagement (yes, I might be tacky)++ an awesome waterproof feature ... which I probably won't test unless by accident++ options to connect another unit (to get a L-R pair as with traditional stereo)++ ...and battery powered ... so need to tether it to a
    • On top of it all, the system had these amazing lights to it
    • Subsequently, many of my friends, upon hearing the TDK A33 said, "Wow, where the h
