    The sound bar is an enhancement to the TV's audio output. Nothing jaw dropping, but quite competent.

      Hi ShowMe2020, we're glad you like our product. The 2.1 channel Dolby Atmos/DTS:X soundbar with Vertical Sound Engine, our latest surround technology, lets you enjoy the thrill of Dolby Atmos from a single slim unit. No matter what type of room you’re in, two front speakers reproduce “vertical” audio, creating virtual surround sound that seems to come from all around you. Thank you for choosing SONY. ~Earl Sony_US

    Can’t beat the sound quality for the price. The sound fills the room with overwhelming you. The clarity of sound provided by the sound and the boom of the subwoofer is idea.

    My virgin ears cannot differentiate much difference between the 2.1 channel system and next upgraded model. Absolutely superb audio quality and excellent for movies and games.

    Wasted hours of my life trying to love this. I even bought two different ones! Same problem- audio noticeably lags behind the video. The user manual addresses how to fix this.... but you can only delay it more, not go the other way like I needed. And I actually plugged the thing in with a physical cord to the tv! On a positive note, the sound quality is pretty good for playing music through Bluetooth and booming for how small the speaker is... but! The surround sound mode literally sounds GROSS like you’re at a movie theater that’s falling apart. Ugh. I don’t understand how technology is supposedly so great and yet everything is more and more difficult to set up and use. I know that I sound like I’m 90, but I’m not. I’m 34 and pretty darn savvy. I just don’t have the patience for this exhausting Sony life. Ps. Don’t even bother falling the support line unless you have a Sony tv as well. They know nothing and will ask you to listen to see if the audio is synced correctly and then KEEP TALKING repeatedly.

    Got this when I bought my 65" Sony X900F TV. I didn't really expect it to be this good. A perfect combo! Early Black Friday prices made it a no-brainer.

    Sound bar not really great sounding for money. My son got a sound bar for much less and it sounds much better. Very difficult to set up. Sony expert at Best Buy gave misinformation about setup. Had to call Sony directly for assistance. Still not sure it is set up correctly as sound in my opinion for price of this sound bar should be magnificant and it isn’t.

    To be transparent, I ordered an open box - excellent condition version of this sound bar. The bar did not come with a remote, so that meant I couldn't set it up via their instructions. Luckily, I own a Sony TV and could use the TV for some setup. The sound is very very low and is worse than our 85X900H Sony TV. I was hoping the bass would save this, but even at maximum values for bass, you don't hear bass that complements movie sound. I wasn't expecting anything mind-blowing, but do not buy a bar with two speakers expecting decent vocal and movie sound.
