Features

• Enjoy powerful sound anywhere: Enjoy deep, punchy sound wherever you like with your EXTRA BASS™2 speaker. Dual passive radiators work together with the 2-way speaker system to enhance low-end tones, giving bass a boost.
• Sound: The SRS-XB43 has been engineered to deliver an irresistible blend of deep, resonant bass, and clear, natural vocals.
• X-Balanced Speaker Unit: Developed by Sony, the X-Balanced Speaker Unit achieves high sound quality and powerful sound pressure for a richer, deeper, more rewarding listening experience.
  • What is the X-Balanced Speaker Unit?: Unlike the circular diaphragm in a conventional speaker unit, the newly developed X-Balanced Speaker Unit in the XB43 features an almost rectangular diaphragm.
    • What does it do?: The unit’s rectangular shape not only maximizes the area of speaker diaphragm, increasing sound pressure for more punchy bass—it also reduces driver excursion while maintaining the same sound pressure, resulting in less distortion and greater vocal clarity.
• Maximising sound quality: The X-Balanced Speaker Unit isn’t the only reason the SRS-XB43 sounds so good – inside, you’ll find a range of high-performance audio technologies.
• Tweeter improves vocal clarity: The XB43’s 2-way speaker system combines a woofer for low to mid-range frequencies with a dedicated tweeter for the higher range frequencies. The result is exceptional vocal clarity.
• Hear it like it’s live: Hit the LIVE SOUND button and hear your music in a whole new way. Bring your party to life with a unique three-dimensional sound experience, creating festival vibes wherever you go.
• Totally dustproof, waterproof and washable: With an IP67 rating, you can take your speaker to the beach, the forest, the desert, or wherever you like—the SRS-XB43 will keep on playing, no matter how dusty the surface. It’s waterproof and salt water resistant too—so you’ve no worries using it by the sea or the pool—and there’s no problem washing it either4.
• Long battery life: Up to 24 hours of battery life means the SRS-XB43 can party even longer than you can. Even with the lighting on in EXTRA BASS™ mode, you can party for up to 14 hours.
• Light up the party: There’s no fun without party lights. The SRS-XB43 has a tweeter light, a speaker light, and a multi-colour line light that all flash in sync with the beat. You can even change the colour of the line light to suit your mood.
