Sony Electronics Inc. today added to its impressive portable speaker range with three new models - the SRS-XG300 with powerful and high-quality sound, and SRS-XE300 and SRS-XE200 with wider listening area from the Line-Shape Diffuser. All three models are easy to carry so users can enjoy them anywhere. Listeners need a speaker that can deliver big sound wherever they go. Thanks to Sony's unique X-Balanced Speaker Unit and Dual Passive Radiators in all three new models, these speakers do just that. They produce punchier bass with less distortion bringing high-quality sound and powerful sound pressure that will keep the energy going all night long.

The SRS-XG300 delivers deep, club-like bass and clear high frequency audio thanks to the integrated Front Tweeter and MEGA BASS features. If the listener wants to move from the club to the concert, thanks to LIVE SOUND, the SRS-XG300 can recreate that unique atmosphere and let them relive their favorite live performances over and over. For those that prefer their party with some added color, listeners can switch on the SRS-XG300's ambient illumination that synchronizes the speaker's lighting to the beat of the music.




Even sound all around
With the SRS-XE300 and SRS-XE200, sound can reach the whole party with the help of Sony's unique Line-Shape Diffuser technology.

Inspired by the audio systems used at professional concerts, Sony's unique Line-Shape Diffuser distributes sound evenly, reaching wider and further so the listener's friends in the same location can dance to the same favorite tracks being played, all while enjoying the same high sound quality.

With the recommended vertical layout on the SRS-XE300 and SRS-XE200, listeners can enjoy the full sound benefits of the Line-Shape Diffuser. In addition, the speakers can be positioned horizontally and the user can enjoy the stereo audio playback using the Sony | Music Center app.

Bring the beat anywhere and everywhere
All three speakers were built with portability in mind and the SRS-XG300 comes with a retractable handle that makes it easier than ever to carry around. Additionally, with the handle down, the speaker matches any interior.

Despite their small dimensions and weight, the SRS-XE300 and SRS-XE200 pack big sound into small frames, making them the perfect companions while exploring the outdoors. The SRS-XE200 also comes with a handy strap, so it's always there ready to play one's favorite tracks at the touch of a button.

Nothing in the way of the music
Consumers need not worry about splashes or dust thanks to an IP67 rating on all models, leaving nowhere off limits for the perfect party setting. Whether on a sandy beach or spending day to night by the pool, listeners can keep blasting their favorite songs.

It's easier to party harder than ever, with the SRS-XE300 and SRS-XE200 thanks to Sony's extensive shock testing, ensuring the speakers can withstand the inevitable knocks, bumps and scrapes that come with everyday use.

Keep the party going with long lasting battery
All three speakers boast long-lasting battery life, so a single charge will power through any party. Fully charged, the SRS-XG300 offers up to 25 hours of play, the SRS-XE300 offers up to 24 hours of play, while the SRS-XE200 offers up to 16 hours of play.

All three speakers are packed with Quick Charging, so even when short on time, the music plays on. Quick charging gives up to 70 minutes of play from just a 10-minute charge.

Thanks to the Battery Care feature on all three models, users never have to worry about over-charging, meaning the speakers will remain in optimum condition for longer. For the SRS-XE300 and SRS-XE200 this feature can be turned on through the Sony | Music Center app.

The SRS-XE300 and SRS-XE200 also offer Ambient Noise Sensing, Sony's unique mic sensing technology that analyzes the ambient noise and helps save battery when used outside.

Enjoy great calls with Echo Cancelling
All three models also offer Echo Cancelling, letting listeners enjoy great quality calls that allow two people to talk at the same time without cutting either of them off. With the help of the MIC Mute button on the SRS-XE300 and SRS XE200, listeners can also mute in an instant.

Get things booming with Party Connect and Stereo Pair
All three speakers come with Party Connect, so listeners can combine up to 100 compatible wireless speakers with BLUETOOTH technology and sync music for an epically powerful sound. With Stereo Pair, listeners can connect two speakers wirelessly for a superb stereo sound. Both features are activated in the Sony | Music Center app.

Sustainability matters
Sony designs their products to be stylish and also with the environment in mind. Recycled plastic developed especially for Sony is used in internal parts of the XE300 and XE2006.This development has required many years of research and design to ensure that the sustainable materials meet Sony's strict audio requirements. By using recycled paper for the individual packaging, including the tray, all three models comprise of no more than 5% plastic materials.

What a misleading title. My first thought was range from the source, then I thought it meant frequencyt range but no mention of that either. Now I'm just confused, what is exactly meant by 'speaker range'? I get this a PR to produce hype, but it feels more like clickbait.

They're simply expanding their wireless range of speakers with three new models.

with wider listening area
This is the only mention of the wireless range and no further mention of it, but I took that as speaker design because right after that it goes right into speaker features. No big deal, thanks for clearing that up.

MEGA BASS

Which was originally used on SONY walkmans hahaha, sounded crap then and by the looks of those X Series speakers look like trash, yes the X don't make them any better.

As for price buy some second hand speakers.

More like you throw it and your dog will go fetch it.

Hey Sony, how about letting your PS5 connect to a bluetooth speaker? You make both so why the damn PS5 says that bluetooth audio devices aren't supported.

Or even other bluetooth headphones. The argument is usually latency which is bullshit since the controller uses bluetooth for both control and audio. Although it would be anticompetitive, at least their own wireless headphones should work (bacause they can implement whatever custom low latency profile they want - they could also avoid being anticompetitive by providing the profile for others manufacturers to use) but no, you must buy more expensive and licensed gaming specific crap.
