This speaker comes equipped with a set of party LED lights that, by default, flash, change color, and pulsate to the beat of whatever you play on the speaker. But now and then, you may not wish to have a party atmosphere in your room, like when you want to play the speaker while drifting off to sleep or during the day in a bright area, where you can’t see the lights anyhow. So we show here how to turn off the Sony XB30 lights for just these situations.
To turn off the party lights, you need to find the Extra Bass-LIGHT button. We find this control on the top of the speaker.
It’s the large first button on the left, as we see in the last picture.
The lights shut off immediately upon pressing the LIGHT button.
These lamps, which light the outer border on the front of the unit, are set to display their party patterns by default.
They work either when fresh out of the box, or after a factory reset. You can turn them off as follows…
Then when you want to turn them back ON, simply do again what you did above. I.e. Press and hold the Extra Bass-LIGHT button. Then the party lamps will return to their usual pulsing and fading color changes.
Power up the speaker and pair it with your mobile device.
Tap the app’s icon on your home screen.
The Home page for the XB30 then appears.
Next, swipe up until you see the Settings item at the bottom of the screen.
Then touch that item. This brings up the Settings page for the 30.
Next, find the Illumination option as we see in the last picture.
Doing so brings up the Illumination page for our test speaker.
Note that the Lighting Mode option is set to DELIGHTFUL, which is the name of one of numerous light show patterns the 30 is capable of displaying.
Tapping that link brings up the Lighting Mode screen for the XB30, as we see next.
Next, find the LIGHT OFF option, near the top of the list of lighting patterns.
Doing this moves the brown check mark from the DELIGHTFUL option to the LIGHT OFF option, as we see in the next shot.
Find the Done item near the top right corner of the screen.
Doing this sends the command to turn the party lights OFF to the speaker, and the lights should immediately go dark.
Then the app takes you back to the Illumination page.
Note that the Lighting Mode option value is now set to LIGHT OFF.
You now know how to turn off the party lights on this speaker using either the Light button on the speaker itself, or doing it in the Sony Music Center app.
