The XB32 Sony Bluetooth speaker is a small to medium power, desktop style unit with plenty of music watts to fill a typical room with full sounding tunes.
But what do the watts a Bluetooth speaker has, tell you about it? Firstly, the watt is a measure of how much power the speaker consumes or outputs. Plus, this metric is a handy comparison measure. E.g. Generally speaking, speakers with more watts output tend to play louder than those with less. They cost more, have bigger batteries and chargers, along with larger drivers. They offer greater dynamic range, have a deeper bass response, and stereo versions and offer typically a bigger soundstage to listeners.
Thus in general, the more powerful the speaker, the better it sounds, even at lower volume. You get better clarity due to higher accuracy reproduction of the bass, midrange, and treble content of the music. More available power could mean less clipping distortion too. So, the speaker’s watts output is a primary indicator of speaker quality and performance, and as such, is of great interest to audiophiles and novice listeners alike.
In this case, the Sony XB32, as a portable BT speaker, is a decently beefy model for its size. Its tens of watts can fill a small to medium size room with clear music. See below for details on its power output.
