Sony announces three speakers

Not sure how Sony portable bluetooth speakers made Audiogon, but hey, I guess audiophiles go poolside just like everyone else ….

Look at the 10 discussions the OP has started since February. That will tell you all you need to know.

I bought my son a "lifestyle" Sony speaker similar to these things on this post this past Christmas for his dorm room.  As compared to what I had when I was a kid his age in the 1980's, these little speaker "pills" are incredible.  While nowhere near our audiophile standards, my son's Sony is loud and reasonably accurate in audio reproduction for a $250 toy speaker.

He had a $150 Altec Lansing speaker that was stolen prior to the Sony that I gifted him.  That $150 Altec simply cranked and had a ton of bass for what it was.  I'm pretty skeptical on these cheap toys, but these aren't bad if you need portable audio that is not for critical listening.

For listening that is not "critical", I have a Klipsch "The One" bluetooth speaker. It is surprising how good it can sound in the right room.
