Sony extends its Headphone and Speaker line-up for 2018
The new SRS-XB41, SRS-XB31, and SRS-XB21 EXTRA BASS wireless speakers from Sony are announced today, so the quest to find perfect party speaker can end here. With portability, durability, EXTRA BASS sound and LIVE SOUND mode, Sony assures these speakers will provide the ultimate party wherever the user will go. With its commitment to provide premium audio technology and to address the growing demand, Sony India further enhanced its EXTRA BASS™ audio line-up for 2018.
Hear the deep and punchy bass from EXTRA BASS with new LIVE SOUND mode
The new speaker series are designed to sustain and focus on “deep bass” & “punch bass”, which perfectly exhibits bass heavy music such as the popular music genres of EDM, grime and hip-hop. One can also give the party an additional boost with the new DSP (Digital Signal Processor), which achieves a LIVE SOUND mode. Creating a three-dimensional music experience, the LIVE SOUND mode will make the user feel as if they are in the middle of a music festival with singers performing live in the room. With the LIVE SOUND mode on, one can feel the sound spreading both vertically and horizontally.
The new fabric material design which comes in up to 4 colours means the speakers are robust and washable, so the odd spillage will never be an issue. They are also waterproof and dust proof with an IP67 rating, the user can now party with speakers on the beach, at a pool party or even put them in the mud without worrying about damaging them! Additionally, the rustproof feature allows to drop speakers in the ocean without causing damage.
Enjoy your Music Non-Stop with 24 hours of Battery Life
These wireless speakers are so compact alongside a 24 hour battery life that they can be carried around in every setting. A 24 hour battery means the SRS-XB41 can party even longer than you can.
Sony speakers can now connect up to 100 different speakers together via bluetooth. One can fill a room or build a wall to create a vast EXTRA BASS™ sound experience. All speakers attribute easy, one-touch connectivity and music streaming with NFC and Bluetooth compatibility.
Give your party an extra boost with Party Booster
The speakers are enabled with ‘Party Booster’ feature which enhances every beat and gives the party an extra boost. It can be used like an instrument and can detect tapping from 5 different directions thanks to the built-in accelerometer that generates a sound and lighting reaction. This creates a uniting party experience full of interactive opportunities, all the user need to do is tap and enjoy!
Create party like ambience with lights
A great party isn’t just about the music. These speakers are equipped with multi-colour line lights and flashing strobe lights with speaker lights3. All the three models will liven up any atmosphere by adapting to the music one love and make it feel like than they are at a festival or a club.
Sony EXTRA BASS™ range has been extended with these three speakers and is better than ever, and made to be more outdoorsy and durable so they can battle the elements of day-to-day life.
