love you bro.. Just recieved d speakers from amazon.. Did some horsing around with em for half n hour. You came to the rescue. So holding both d add n + was the trick. Thanks again.... Party on 🎊
The app is a hot mess. You will be on your knees pleading with Sony saying “I’ve done what you’ve asked, I forked out hundreds dollars for your products! Sony why have you forsaken me!”
Dude that was one of the best tutorials I’ve watched. You simplify it and clearly explained that process. Great job!👍I just upgraded to the XP700…thing is a beast. Not really “portable” as it weighs 38 lbs. Has a handle tho so I will have it on my deck. Thanks again for video
Unfortunately the XB-43/33/23 that uses Party Connect are not compatible with the Wireless Party Chain compatible devices which are the SRS-XB20 /SRS-XB21/SRS-XB22/SRS-XB30/SRS-XB31/SRS-XB32/SRS-XB40/SRS-XB41/GTK-XB60/GTK-XB72/GTK-XB90. For some reason, different generations such as XB20 and XB30 cannot connect in stereo mode and only Wireless Party Mode according to Sony. Otherwise, a great video on how to connect devices.
Thnx man! I was about to punch a whole in the wall myself, this was very helpful!! Though in my case when i open the sony music center app, it just messes everything!! So i just connected the party chain ur way and paired my phone to the master the conventional way and it worked!
Seriously lol thank you !!!! I downloaded the app and couldn't figure it out like a half hour!..I read the directions which just confused me more .. Kept Turning them on and off hitting "Bluetooth" "ADD"... I have XB31 and XB21 .."WPC" Is all I needed to press .. Thank you !!!!
Thank you for the video!!! Like you, I was about to get really frustrated trying to pair an XB40 with a XB41, now they work. I'm surprised Sony made it this difficult to pair them up. I've always though the company made their products really intuitive. Now that they are synced the first time, do you have any pointers on how to keep them synced up even when I leave the app and use it again in a couple of days?
How did you pair xb40 to 41? I also try to follow these steps in this vid by connecting xb30 and xb31 but still unable to connect them :( can you pls share on what you did.
Incredible video!!! I was able to pair XB60 with XB40 which was pretty much impossible! Thank you so much! Fantastic job that you found this method! Thank you for sharing
That exactly what I'm trying to do and I'm have trouble with it, what App should I use if I have a Samsung phone?? Thanks for the help. BTW. He did a great job with this video, lov it...
Hi, I’m a fan of your review. Could you please tell me how I can get my Sony srs xg 500 connect to my xb40. Would be a great help. I couldn’t figure out from your this helpful video. Thanks
I am a new subscriber, enjoying your content! Like you spending lots of time trying to pair different models, do you know if i can pair xb23 with xb12?
If you only use the old 2017 ones can you use the master to control all the other speakers volume? Or does that only work if you have a 2018 model as a master?
If you turn the volume down on the xb21 when connected to the xb31 being the master and the sound gets messed up how do you get The sound levels to sync up to the same volume level again?
Why don't 2 connected stay grouped when you turn them back on?? And the app has a power off select, why not a power on select?? Sucks you have to repair together each time you turn back on! Would be very nice if you can turn both on when you turn on BT and select XB41's and still be connected?
Please tell me if you can sync 2 xb32's in stereo mode and use Aux as an input? Everybody is testing them on Bluetooth mode but what about aux input? Thank you for your time!
Great demo. Unfortunately still can't get my XB21 and XB29 to work in WPC mode. Separately they both work phone with my phone. But when I go through the process as you've demo'd when I tap on XB21 Party Chain on the Music Centre app, I get a message "Cannot access the selected device. Please verify the power source of the device, network connection status etc.". Very frustrating!
Mate thank you so much iam about to buy the Sony SRSXB41 and you have answered all of my questions keep up the good work top job thanks. One last question can you pair my Sony SRSXB40 with a Sony GTK-XB90 just say i have the main party around one side of the house and i wanted the same music but not at an overwhelming sound can it be done.
i wish i can also pair my xb30 and xb31 on a sony store. Im about to buy a xb31 today but due to i cant connect my present xb30 to 31 so I just stick with my xb30 :( Even I made the steps here in this vid but still no luck :( First thing i did is connect my phone to xb31 and clicked the wpc then i clicked + button together with add on xb30 and when i click party chain in sony app it says no other speaker can connect
Hello, There! Thanks for the nice, informative review. Here's burning question. Can one use XB40 and XB30 as a stereo pair? One can certainly make a Party Chain out of two different models OF THE SAME LINE (20, 30, 40), but can they work as L and R channels of a stereo pair?
I have the xb41 and the xb32 and it f******king hard to pair them together!! At a party they failed me because once one of the speakers battery starts to say battery low they wont sound together. Then you have to pair them together wich takes a while.
I did pair too XB21 in stereo mode. But it is almost useless. Sound stutters almost every 3-4 minutes and in addition there is delay between speakers randomly.
Im a jbl fan but the speakers dont last. Should i get sony. Too me sony always handle thrash. I thought jbl could handle too but no it seems. I have charge 3s
I am having trable pairing 3 Srs Xb41, it doesn't work like the oldest models, pressing the ADD and + button. I can easily pair the first two but NOT the 3rd one. Can anyone help me??? Thanks
I went through the exact same thing trying to pair Sony's GTK-XB60, GTK-XB90, GTK-XB7,SRS-XB30, SRS-XB20, SRS-XB40. Sony needs a solid firmware update. Calling Sony's customer support will make you very frustrated. It's like they promote a feature that really doesn't work like Remote Play on the PS4 which only work seamlessly when sitting right in front of your PS4. I love the look and feel of Sony products but the need to support their devices too many times Sony leaves us all hanging.
