Great design/sound, POOR AirPlay performance

By lukemac77

from Philadelphia, PA

Comments about Sony SA-NS500 Portable Wi-Fi Speaker with AirPlay:

I was eagerly awaiting the release of this speaker because I liked the design and the possibility of using it as an AirPlay device. The speaker looks great and is nice and compact. It definitely fills the room with nice quality sound, but does not get very loud (which is sometimes useful, i.e. party). When placed on the floor, the bass is actually pretty good! HOWEVER, and this is a big however, unless you actually have something physically plugged into it via a stereo cable, this speaker is useless! It is constantly dropping the sound and/or disconnecting from the network. AirPlay works for 5-15 minutes and then drops out. There is a known issues with iPhone 4S and AirPlay sound dropping, however, a similar issues occurs when streaming directly from a computer with iTunes, albeit after about 30 minutes. Hence, this speaker cannot be recommended as a wireless/AirPlay device. I do like the way it looks and sounds, but unless Sony fixes the firmware, I have no choice but to return it.

Beautiful but full of bugs

By BBOO

from San Diego, CA

Comments about Sony SA-NS500 Portable Wi-Fi Speaker with AirPlay:

Have been trying to set this up with Mac for hours now -- unable too. The speaker will work for a couple of minutes, bring my entire network down, and then stop working. Tried setting it up via Windows Machine with the same result. Beautiful design, great sound (when it works), and excellent features (when they work) but the firmware is BUGGY. Fees rushed -- Sony: Please push a firmware update soon or this bad boy is going back to your store

      Hello, thanks for your question. Since this device is a standalone device it should be no problem using it in party mode with your other airplay devices.
