The bass bumping MHC-V7D also allows you to elevate the atmosphere on your dance floor further by projecting light patterns around the room, thanks to integrated, adjustable space illuminating party lights that synchronise with the beat of the music.

The MHC-V7D’s new Gesture Control Technology lets you effortlessly transcend the world of DJs as you control both the music and lighting at your party effortlessly with the flick of your hand.

Connect your smartphone, tablet or laptop to the speaker system via NFC™ and Bluetooth® to wirelessly stream and listen to your playlists on the MHC-V7D. Stay in full control of the music and lights, add DJ-Effects and voice playback even while mingling with your friends using Sony’s new Fiestable app. Simply download the App from the Google Play™ or App Storeand connect the MHC-V7D to your smart device, which will then act as a remote control.

This true DJ-experience is packed into a space saving one-box design. Should you however feel the need to truly wake up the neighbours you can use Party Chain Mode to hook-up and sync the MHC-V7D to other compatible High Powered Audio Systems such as the SHAKE-X3D or SHAKE-X1D.

Turn up the beat with the SHAKE-X3D & SHAKE-X1D

Whether you are hosting a celebration or just want to enjoy your favourite tracks during a lazy weekend, Sony’s new SHAKE-X3D two-way speaker system features a 2.5cm (1”) tweeter for clear high notes, while a 25cm (9.8”) woofer delivers bone shattering bass. Experience 2300W[2] of sound pressure (RMS 1200W, 114.0db SPL) thanks to the new Smart High Power Technology, bringing breath-taking beats to your living room. Sony’s sound pressure horn enhances bass strength and depth by increasing its acoustic pressure whilst DSEE™ (Digital Sound Enhancement Engine) elevates your music by restoring high-frequency signals often lost in compressed audio sources. Make the SHAKE-X3D your perfect speaker system in every situation. Thanks to the featured Party Chain Mode you can even combine multiple compatible Hi-Fi systems to the SHAKE-X3D to create an even more powerful sound.

SHAKE-X3D lets you become the star of the party as you can add DJ-typical sound effects at the press of a buttonto your favourite party-anthems or even host a Karaoke party, while integrated Speaker Lights with customizable effects bring the real club feeling to your living room.
