Not a “smart” tv install ….
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound bar continues to fail. The unit has power, and all indicators reflect it is the default audio output, but it frequently goes absolutely dead …. as it is right now. Very frustrating. Clearly a bad setup between the Sony “smart TV” and my Apple TV 4K.

Geek squad 3rd party installer incompetent.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had Sony TV and Sony Sound bar delivered and installed. The technician did not know the TV feet were adjustable and said I would need to put a block of wood under the feet so the soundbar did not block the screen. After I helped him figure out the feet did adjust, he could not get the sound bar to sync to the TV. So I needed to return it to Best buy. He said even though he delivered it I would have to return the sound bar myself. I have COPD so this was a hardship for me. Nice customer service!!!

Home Theatre-not Soundbar
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The tech that was sent wasn’t trained in home theatre so he could do nothing towards resolving our service ticket. Now we’re being rescheduled another three weeks out! Unacceptable!

Buyer Beware
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Initial setup was fine but I'm finding issues as I use the item. For instance, hitting pause on the remote disconnects the sound and getting it back takes some playing with the item controls.

Don't Trust the Geek Squad to Do the Job Correctly
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.There were 2 Geek Squad members. One was very rude and rushed through the job. She rushed so much that she did not install my TV correctly and left me with a dysfunctional TV and sound bar. I had to call a technician from another company to come and correct her many, many mistakes. He found she not only install the TV and sound bar incorrectly, she also broke the cable box which had to be replaced. I will not trust the Geek Squad for any job in the future.

Disappointing
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I ordered this on 12/24/24, it did not get delivered until mid March ‘25 due to a variety of excuses. Then, the installers did not set up the rear speakers. I just returned the item, waste of time.
