Sony unveiled its new EXTRA BASS wireless speaker lineup today, consisting of new SRS-XB43, SRS-XB33 and SRS-XB23 models.

"Customers expect best-in-class sound when they purchase any Sony audio product, and these new wireless speakers are no exception," said Mike Fasulo, president and chief operating officer, Sony Electronics North America. "This new lineup offers peak performance by creating clear, full sound with new colors and a compact, stylish design."

New Lineup Highlights:
● EXTRA BASS Sound: Enjoy deep, punchy bass anywhere with Sony's latest EXTRA BASS wireless speakers. The layout of the speakers' side passive radiators is optimized to reproduce clear bass while a rigid and lightweight Mica Reinforced Cellular (MRC) cone and dust cap contribute to the sound quality.
● X-Balanced Speaker Unit: Sony's newly developed X-Balanced Speaker Unit achieves high-quality audio and powerful sound pressure for a richer and deeper listening experience. The unit's non-circular shape maximizes the speaker diaphragm area, increasing sound pressure for punchier bass. It also reduces driver excursion while maintaining the same sound pressure, resulting in less distortion. For example, XB33's level of sound pressure has increased by around 30 percent and its distortion rate has decreased by around 25 percent, when compared to its predecessor XB32.

Unlike the circular diaphragm in a conventional speaker unit, the X-Balanced Speaker Unit in the XB43 features an almost rectangular diaphragm. Its 2-way speaker system combines a woofer for low-to-mid frequencies with a dedicated tweeter for higher range frequencies. The result is powerful sound, deep punchy bass and exceptional vocal clarity.

Additionally, the X-Balanced speaker unit in the XB33 and XB23 features a newly developed non-circular diaphragm and off-center design. The new design maximizes the speaker diaphragm to create more sound pressure in a compact size.
