Sony SRS XB41 VS XB31 :Sound Battle 

Xb31 for me.👍 "...but that's just me and sound is so subjective" ~ i remember this on your other videos.

I have the xb41 and I’ve had it for years and it still works like a champ! Great speaker.

DLX Wilington challenge from me.... Take JBL Xtreme with (and later Xtreme 2) Sony Srs xb41 and go outside just like year ago. If you agree with such an idea, leave a thumb up.

Depends on the genre & volume setting. Each has its perks. For clarity it's the 31 at 70% or lower . But for pure bass it's 41all the way. My advice do 2 x 31 & 1 x 41.

Xb31 more treble xb41 more bass. It's the first thing I noticed. U can use eq tho.

I got the XB31 for my birthday from my wife and it’s just amazing. Just enough for me , the bass the mids the highs are all right on !!!!

I got to demo the XB31 at walmart, i really like the sound quality especially in live mode and it sounded very similar to your video. Thank you. Im going to get the XB31. It just sounds better to me.

Live sound on xb41 is bad , xb31 sounds way better I agree. I have both too.

Excellent comparative, I have a Xb31 and I was lacking in desire to buy an Xb41, definitely not worth a trade already in my preferred way "live sound" did better on xb31.

I am an owner of a xb31 and I can confirm it is a pehnoemenal speaker (especially with more treble, less bass on R&B EQ)

i always write this down, you just need to f*ing tweak the xb40,41 in the songpal app. boost bass and boost treble and slight mid and it will sound awasome and non distrorted.

Listening with my Sony SRS XB41

Hey I was actually watching one of your videos and then this new one came up!

Yeah dont know if anyone is aware but there is a app to change the eq on these little guys that actually is pretty good because if you want a crap load of bass then you can adjust that or you can adjust it two whatever you like

Please next time u are going to test BASS speaker, play a hip hop, rap song

Xb31 clearer sound and louder xb41 deeper bass xb31😍

XB31 all the way.... I own one myself and the sound it produces it outstanding for this formfactor

SRS XB41 wins Thanks DLX

live sound on xb31 is amazing!

I think the Xb31 sounds alot better..I'm glad I got it on sale for $100.. I dont think I'd spend $250 on the Xb41..I'm happy with my Xb31.

I have all three, XB41, 31and 21. The bass on the XB31 is on lower volumes comparable to the 41, but on some bass-heavy songs the XB31 starts to distort a little bit (manly on LiveSound Mode and sometimes on XB-Mode). @DLX Willington: Did you hear distortions on the XB31, too?

download the right app and the Sony sounds incredibly good! Nice clean base and crisp highs. I have the xb31 and it's a fantastic speaker. The right settings and it is quite loud too for it's size. Love it!

31 is a beast

never understood how people dont like the light show accessory on speakers makes the music visual turning it into a full auditory and visual show. which is a way better experience overall. Don't feel like looking at lights turn them off. They do what lightless speakers do plus the option to have a light show. Light speakers are better hands down. Lightless speakers are like going to a concert with all the lights off.

Here's the 31 without the covers, but it still works for under $40 on eBay, definitely ordering it to attempt to fit the 48 mm speakers nside my backpack which called "SPEAKER BACKPACK" from Stealth Labs or HYPEPACK (basically one company copied the others design lol) Doing this because the Speakers it came with are a little too... weak, for my tastes.

thanks, helped me decide which to buy for my kid for xmas

Xb31 clear and deep

I like this video but I feel like using music that is more familiar would help alot. These songs are pretty dynamic though

Glad I watched this before I bought one. I was going with the xb41, but now I'll save some money and get the xb31.

Xb31 is the winner. Sound on XB41 is like those old radios with the tone button fully turn at low.

yeah 41 louder and more bass

Sony should have used separate tweeters in XB41. Bass is fine but it’s overpowering mids & highs. Reasons why Xtreme is better than XB41.

The XB31 is ready to go out of the box. The XB41 sounds muddy out of the box but with proper configuration, it wrecks the XB31.

I have a XB41 and a friend of mine has XB31. I have to say that mine sounds a lot better in every way. It makes sense, the XB41 is more pricey...

happy that my speaker is kinda epic :)

Still like my xb 41 better because I know how to use the eq setting. If you don't use them clearly it's not gonna sound as good.

Hi DLX, I happen to audition xb31 and 41 and I think 31 has a better sound quality. Regarding the looks and feel maybe a little better than the previous but the fabric being used looks cheap.

the xb31 really does sound bad compared to the xb30 both xb31 and xb30 with extra bass sounds like an xb40 or xb41 without extra bass

Thank you ! You really help me

I ended up with two XB31's based on your reviews. Still holding out for the Beoplay A1 to come out with an upgrade (Beoplay A2?) Still too many complaints about the A1.

Live sound mode sounds better in xb 31. And I prefer balanced sound more. I wonder how xb31 will go against flip 4. I have to make a purchase decision between these two.

Beautiful top ^^

I have sony srs xb31 and xb41

Srs41 good

DLX willington I’m having a minor issue when I play a 70-85 hz test tons from 50-60 % volume on my xb41 I hear a sound that sounds really bad can you please see if it’s for all xb41’s? Edit anyone with xb41 please try and tell me if it happens when you play a 75 hertz test tone at 60 % volume

greetings from Turkey, useful video

JetAudio app on android with X-Wide sound effect has almost the same sound as the live mode on XB31.

JBL and Sony should IMPROVE their speakers...

Is it true that the Sony extra bass range, when there is little battery drastically reduces the volume? and if so, can I use an external battery to keep the battery on? Thank you

31 Sound is wayy Better Listen 1:39 But Actually Its More Live on the 41 Side cuz its like The Girl is there singing with a mic right in front of her mouth so more Live yeahh..!!

Thanks for this video! I bought Sony srs-xb31

The battery doesn't last more than 3hrs to Hitech trance music. None of the Bluetooth speakers can pass the Hitech trance test for battery life. Hahahaha! Amazing output, great sound quality, great speaker. Doesn't pass the Hitech trance test! battery life put to the real test.

I have 31 and listen 41, 31 best in live mod, 41 in standard mode have best sound

DLX Wilington, can you please let me know from which site will I get the white/silver coloured Sony SRS XB31, as white/silver option is not available in amazon. I look forward to your response. Thank you

Can the xb41 handle bass better at higher volumes than the xb31?

Xb41 better for standard and xbass, live mode xb31 is better.

Сompare xb40 and xb31, please!:)

Can you do 4 xb31 vs 2 xb41

Everybody says xb31 is better they say that because they haven’t tried the xb41 on my opinion 41 is the better of sony

İ ordered xb31 today hope it's not that muffled

I own true of this song is 31 and they sound but I would like to switch from the live sale two extra base I don’t see it in the instruction and I’m wondering how or if you can make the radio about I think it will help out a lot of people that have the same question

PLS ! When I charge loudspeaker, can I listen to it or turn it off? eg:xb30 & xb40

I think the 41 is better

Does someone know te watts of them both?

pls make xb41 vs xb33

I could upgrade for $22 to the xb41 should I do it?

Xb31 has clearity

XB 30 :)

The XB31 distorts at high volume. Big pass.

Io posseggo xb31 è una bomba

Xb41 is better

Can I pair one xb41 with two xb31

Tbh speaking off bass the xb31 next to the xb41 is like the jbl clip next to the charge lmao Dat thing sound flatt af

how long the battery lasts at maximum volume to the xb31???

The Sound of the Sony XB31 proved to be better and cleaner, Sony XB31 wins.

Hey, What is the tittle of the song ?1:30

Tengo las dos y me gusta más la xb31 la xb41 se escucha muy guanga

xb41 hv left right channel separation?

First song ??

Same as last years models...

XB 41 is better on it extra bass and Live mode.

woooow... xb 31 is a musical speaker, xb41 is... I dont know, the sound is really bad, muffled, junk

Next time you test a speaker with LDAC, Use the damn LDAC with FLAC Files, Not low quality MP3 crap files.

Xb31 wins i have it

The tuning on these speakers is so weird

I do agree, the 41 sounds worse, but anyway no sony for me, they have flashing lights, I hate that.

Xb 41 has only bass

2x xb31 with 1x xb41 (stereo mod) vs 2x xb30 with 1x xb40 (stereo mod) pls!!

Xb 31 wins

i like the xb31 more, the 41 sounds like from a sealed box

Xb 41 is won

When its available in india... please tell me

I like xb31 best

sony xb31 is the best

this rating of 20-20000 hz is a joke

Please come out from Sony zone!!
