Awesome Speaker but............
GTK-XB7 19/07/2017 by Breston9318 (USA)
These are very nice speakers that sound pretty good. I purchased two of them and connect them together. Sometimes, the speakers will disconnect from each other OR just turn themselves off altogether. I later purchased two SRS-XB40 speakers because they advertised they would connect to a "Party Chain". When i got them home I learned the two different speakers WILL NOT connect to each other and therefor eliminating the reason for me buying them. I don't know why the four speakers can not be connected together. Please fix this issue SONY.

GTK-XB7 11/11/2020 by Mich125 (USA)
I bought this speaker back in 2017 and it worked well, at first. Sound was great, the lights were atmospheric and it made my gaming more fun! Then the glitches began but nothing that couldn't be resolved. Enter Nov 9, 2020, as I'm watching a video, the speaker turns off. I unplugged and re-plugged it in to no avail. No power. I attempted to set it back to default demo mode, still nothing. Tried to contact support. Nothing. Looked for spare parts. Nothing. Sony, if you want to keep your customers happy, offer better product support. I'm now in the possession of a oversized paperweight. Please don't give me the "You no longer offer support for that product nonsense" especially when you're dishing out re-tweaked versions of the SAME SPEAKER!!!

Great sound, but died after two years
GTKXB7BC 02/05/2020 by WRobinson (USA) Verified Purchaser Verified
I've been enjoying the product for almost three years. The sound is great. I would be extremely satisfied, however last week the product stopped in the middle of playing a song. When I checked it, the power light was off and I couldn't get to come back on. I performed the normal troubleshooting (another outlet, another power cable) and have determined through online research that perhaps its main fuse quit. Unfortunately you must be a electronics technician to take the device apart and solder a new fuse onto one of the boards. This is disappointing and should be an easier fix to replace a fuse.

Hi WRobinson, we're sorry to hear that you have an issue with your SONY unit.

Great speaker, but glitchy
GTK-XB7 15/04/2020 by WarriorCRK (USA)
The speakers by themselves sound great but I bought two of these for the speaker add function and it is rare that I can last more than an hour without the speakers going out of sync or just randomly starting to glitch, when they are working they sound great though, if It wasn’t for this annoyance it would’ve been 5 stars

Stopped working after 8 months
GTK-XB7 12/07/2019 by Scuba_Steve (USA)
Bought this on black Friday last year and it was awesome. This was the best speaker ever. It was loud, portable, just needed a simple plug. My wife and I used it on the weekends when we were working on the house. But after 8 months, it just didn't turn on. The lights came on and everything, but the power button didn't turn on. The only thing I would change would be for the lights to not be set to turn on as default, or have a button on the unit to turn the lights off instead of just the remote.

Problems
GTKXB7BC 11/01/2019 by Nate4302 (USA) Verified Purchaser Verified
Since purchasing my Sony GTK-xb7 I have had a few issues. When I pair it to multiple devices it will play about 2 or 3 songs and kick off the pairing mode. It then wants me to keep reconnecting to what ever device I'm using. My devices are always in the same room and never more than 2 or 5 feet from the speaker. Also with volume on a low to mid volume the speakers pop and sound like static. I paid 349.00 for the unit at Best Buy and this is unacceptable.

ALL YOU NEED FOR A GREAT PARTY!
GTK-XB7 03/01/2019 by TheJacksini (United Kingdom) Verified Purchaser Verified
I bought two of these speaker systems for myself as a Christmas present after doing my research into party speakers and wanting to do so for over a year. I am so glad that I finally got around to buy it. I am very weary when products come with built in light features etc. because most of the time these features make those products look cheap and ruin the overall effect. BUT NOT IN THIS CASE - it adds a great effect to the look and overall experience of the speakers, so much so that the speakers are not the same with the Party Lights feature turned off! The shades and patterns of colour and the effect of the strobe lights are phenomenal. These speakers produces mind blowing sound volume, sound effect and sound quality! One of these speaker systems are overkill in a small room as the Sub-Woofers/ Bass & Tweeters/ Treble needs a large room for the sound to come to its full effect and potential and of course to make it bearable. If you have the money I recommend buying at least two of these systems. I did buy two and actually want two more! All the features these systems offer are great: The App; Bluetooth, direct wire or USE connectivity to sound source; Party Chain (for connecting two or more speaker systems); Speaker Pairing (for wireless connectivity of two speaker systems) etc. These systems are durable and built to endure a party environment. These systems are also great for use in a large house. I have NO REGRETS!

Fantastic sound and value
GTKXB7BC 25/12/2018 by Brente (USA) Verified Purchaser Verified
I received my GTKXB7BC system today and ran it through its paces. It has what I would call a typical Sony sound to it but maybe a little more accurate than I was expecting. The sound is big and full even at lower volumes. Bass is strong and adjustable. The pairing was straight forward and easy. The sound options in the mobile application are easy too and work well. I was able to turn off the lights which great for me. Per the product dimensions the unit is a bit big. But I can still move it comfortably enough with the dual handles. I spent a lot of time researching an outdoor portable unit (requires ac power) and couldn't be happier with the product. By far the best product I could find in this price range. Five Stars!

GTK-XB7 31/07/2018 by Anita78 (USA)
I received this speaker as a gift for Christmas 2016, the manufacturer date was September 2016, from day 1 it was put on a shelf in our garage so that it wouldn't get damaged, I went to turn it on a couple days ago and it wouldn't even turn on, no lights, no power, nothing. Since it's up on a shelf I always used the remote and at first I thought the batteries might have died, so I changed the batteries, but still nothing, I plugged into 3 different outlets with the same result. I called Sony today and they're refusing to do anything. I would think a $200 speaker would last more than 18 months! Very dissapointed! At least it sounded great while it was working....

WAY BETTER THAN I EVER EXPECTED
GTK-XB7 12/06/2018 by Pineapplemojo (USA)
I have bought 3 of these so far! One for work and two for my house. The one I bought for work has survived light rain, beer, and being shipped across the ocean several times. It gets loud enough to fill a large aircraft hangar, or cover about half a football field outdoors. The only thing I would change is that the power jack should be recessed more because if it falls on its back the jack will break. I actually had to solder the power cord directly to the PCB on my work one because it broke the jack. That’s why I took two stars off the design. I could fix it, but the average person could not. It also doesn’t have an 1/8” aux jack which is inconvenient at times (-1 on features).

Several Problems & Extremely Poor Customer Service
GTK-XB7 07/12/2017 by Panther32 (USA)
I bought two of these units less than a year ago. The sound and lights are great when the speakers work. One of the units quit working completely at the 10 month point. When I called for warranty service the rep was VERY rude. She made me feel like it was a true inconvenience for her to provide me support. Practically every portion of the internal workings was replaced, but they didn’t replace the unit. Now my second speaker’s Bluetooth light indicator has quit working. All within 10 months of purchasing the speakers. My gut feeling Is that the repaired speaker will go out again and it’ll be out of warranty. Extremely disappointed in the NEW Sony quality and even more dissatisfied with the poor customer service.

Great Speaker

I was looking for a good speaker that sounded good at high volume. This is just the perfect one for me. I love the lights and the sound quality is just perfect.
Enormous potential - lacks decent EQ on app
GTK-XB7 14/11/2017 by ChipU (USA)
Love the concept and for many types of music (EDM, House, Techno), the sound is awesome BUT for anything else like rock, country, much pop, the sound (highs and mids) gets muddy quick to where it's not enjoyable to listen to, even at moderate to lower volumes. I was hoping the Sony Music Center app would have a proper 7 or even 5 band EQ to fix this, but it doesn't. The speakers are much more capable than we are allowed to hear. LG's FH6 is a much better choice for sound, not even close and it's because *all* music generes sound amazing in the high/mids frequencies...IF Sony would add a proper EQ to the app and an optical input, they would be back on top of the party speaker niche as it is more portable.

Had the speaker for a year now. No problems. Wish this was around when I was younger. I always buy Sony products. This speaker rocks.

Love the Sound but...
GTK-XB7 25/09/2017 by Kanavi (USA)
The speakers definitely rocked my room with extra bass & I own 2 of these...But the lights work independently despite my multiple tries to sync them with the app & remote independently. The app only supports the lead speaker A lights instead of both speakers on Bluetooth mode which is what I use most. On the plus side one remote works for both speakers but a backlight on the remote would help at night. You can't also just turn the center led light on like a led light but only works as a strobe light which could be added to the app since the led lights in the center is the brightest. Sony please fix the deficiencies to your app & add the features to your app I mentioned above. Overall love the speakers.

Great speaker but MAJOR problems with Songpal app
GTK-XB7 04/09/2017 by Mihai1704 (USA)
The speaker itself is great but there are a lot of problems with the SongPal app for iPhone and unfortunately you cannot use the speaker by itself without the SongPal app. When trying to play music via USB drive, the speaker is disconnecting a lot, the song list is not displayed properly and most of the time is not displayed at all, you cannot set Shuffle All or repeat all or any other similar function. You need to close the app and connect again to the speaker in order to gain access to the USB drive.
