Sony’s ULT Field 7 speaker has decent sound quality and some useful special features, but the size and price are too high for some people. Sony’s Bluetooth speaker lineup is quite extensive. There’s the wheeled speaker SRS-XV900, which delivers thunderous omnidirectional sound. Spatial audio enthusiasts can opt for the lavish SRS-RA5000, which delivers room-scale 3D sound with 360 Reality Audio. Budget-conscious buyers can even opt for the SRS-XB100, a fantastic compact speaker that has excellent bass for its size and is one of the best cheap Bluetooth speakers.
With so many great options, Sony leaned in to launch another speaker line under the recently announced ULT Power Sound series. Three new speaker models were introduced: the entry-level ULT Field 1, the chunky midrange ULT Field 7, and the flagship ULT Field 10. There’s also a pair of ULT Wear headphones in the series. All products are designed to emphasize bass levels with the ULT button that boosts audio output. Sony’s Bluetooth speaker lineup is quite extensive.

All products are designed to emphasize bass levels with the ULT button that boosts audio output. Bass is Sony’s forte, and there’s enough bass to satisfy most listening environments. The X-Balanced speaker units, combined with a passive radiator and two tweeters, produce a loud, spacious sound that doesn’t compromise on frequency range, at least not when the special modes are disabled. Audio performance is best when sound field optimization is turned on in the companion app. This automatically scans your environment for ambient noise and adjusts the sound on the fly, and it works surprisingly well. I placed the speaker on a balcony, where there are all kinds of incidental noises (such as air conditioning units, landscaping, fountains splashing), and this feature improved clarity. Sony ULT FIELD 7 review: Control app and special features In settings, you’ll find lighting, power, and sound modes. Lighting has 10 selectable lighting sequences. Power options offer a variety of choices for extending battery life. Two ULT modes can be toggled in the sound effects field, along with custom EQ and sound field optimization. When streaming, there’s the option to prioritize sound quality or connectivity. DJs can use the isolator and flanger settings to create mixes, although neither setting adds much to the listening experience.
The home page has a battery level indicator, a volume slider, and shortcuts to popular streaming platforms. You can access your personal music catalog in My Music Library. Audio-in and USB let you control playback on plugged-in devices. Finally, you can group other ULT Field 7 speakers together for true stereo sound, or connect up to 100 compatible speakers to sync music (and lights) via Party Connect.
Sony ULT FIELD 7 Review: Bluetooth Speakers Sony
Battery Life
Sony ULT Field 7 poolside with reviewer Alex Bracetti Sony rates the Sony ULT Field 7 battery life at 30 hours. That means the ULT Field 7 outlasts other bass-heavy behemoths, like the JBL PartyBox Stage 320 (18 hours) and UE Hyperboom (24 hours), while offering the same playtime as some smaller speakers, like the Tribit Stormbox Flow. There’s a caveat, though: Volume must be kept at around 25 percent, with both the LED and ULT mode disabled. Enabling the latter may reduce Bluetooth Speakers Sony life to around 7 hours.
After testing, this speaker lasted about 15 hours, taking into account the special features and volume levels. That’s enough for two weekend parties (4-5 hours per day) and charging a smartphone. There are two power saving modes – Battery Care, which curbs the charge to 90%, and Stamina, which optimizes settings to curb power consumption – each of which can provide
2 hours of additional use. The auto-standby function puts the speaker into sleep mode after 15 minutes of inactivity. 10 minutes of charging will get you 3 hours of playback time. Sony ULT FIELD 7 Review: Conclusion
You can get loud, wide sound from any reasonably priced Bluetooth speaker, especially one with the Sony logo. Why should you consider the ULT Field 7? Versatility.
The powerful sound quality and deep bass will surely appeal to brand lovers. The design is heavy, but very rugged, providing a high level of protection during pool parties and outdoor gatherings. However, it’s the party features and portable charging capabilities that turn the speaker into an enjoyable and maintainable ecosystem, and make the ULT Field 7 a great portable speaker, even if it’s expensive.
