    Haven’t had the product that long, but love the fact that it’s got a wireless sub. That’s one of the reasons why I bought this over others (also helps that it’s a Sony). Looking forward to getting some better sound instead of poorly designed flat screen tv’s which shoot the sound out of the back.

    Bought it for 160 .. simple installation .. Good sound quality .. Satisfied .. what could have been better is a small display which tells us the bass and volume of the speaker. 4.5 star is my rating.

    Easy to install and very compact but the outside case scratched up way too easy and now looks very warned. Still cant complain because sound is great.

    This set up was purchased to replace a JVC surround sound system and so far im pretty happy with it. Its very compact, easy to set up and produces pretty decent sound. Great bang for your buck!

    My biggest concern with getting this soundbar was having it be compatible with Universal remotes. It works wonderfully with my Sony 4k TV remote! Oh, and it sounds great! Bluetooth is cool as well allowing me to switch over to my cell phone when cleaning the house to listen to tunes.

    We love our sound bar. Works really good, and sound is great. However be careful because if your neighbors have wireless sound bars too then you might be listening to their music too lol.

    Found this on a great deal before the holidays, and it has a lot of power for the great price. Hooked up so easy to our new Sony TV too. Only need the TV remote to operate. Haven't used the Bluetooth yet, only movie nights and I felt the vibration during intense battle scenes.

    I recently purchased a LG 4K television just before we moved. The home we purchased had four surround sound speakers attached to the walls. I met with a Best Buy audio expert explained the option of a sound bar. Best Buy was advertising a LG 2.1 sound bar for a good price and I planned on buying it. The saleslady pointed out the Sony 2.1 sound bar and demo'd both for me. The Sony was cleaner looking as the LG had open uncovered sound ports on its face. The Sony had a cleaner look with no visible holes on the face of the sound bar and it was on sale too. I am very pleased with the quality and sound of my new sound bar.

    I purchased this product to help clarify the sound off my TV which only has 10 watt speakers. The Sony soundbar does this very well. If you are looking for a lot of heavy bass, then search elsewhere. This Sony Soundbar makes the sound very clear and is great for watching the news, sports, reality tv and other live events. Movies are great too, but don't expect a heavy thumping bass for explosions, etc. The soundbar does integrate well with my LG QLED. It was quite simple to setup after reading through the instructions and there are sound options to use both the TV speakers and the soundbar. I opted for just the soundbar as it sounds significantly better this way. The one drawback is that one cannot see the volume bar on the TV. You only see if you are increasing or decreasing the volume from a little +/- indicator. I can live with this though. Overall, the Sony soundbar was worth it for me and I very much enjoying the quality of the sound it provides as someone who is partially deaf; so it works well for me and I recommend it to anyone who is looking for clarity and reality of sound.

    The sound for me did not have the base I like in my movies, it does have a good sound, but this was an open box special which may have been the problem. Not sure. Return the item.

    I bought this item for a friend as a gift. I was a little nervous that the product since I got it at a really low price on sale would be less than adequate, but once I set it up for my friend it was really excellent. The sound quality was far better than even my own really expensive unit and it had far more user friendly controls. The unit set up in a few minutes with no hassle. It put out a rich deep base sounds and very clear upper range even at high volume without distortion. Even on all music channels the sound separation was spectacular for such a small unit.

    Was overwhelmed when we went to Best Buy about what sound bar to get, because we didn't want to spend a ton of money. This one happened to be on sale at the time, and was mid priced, not super expensive, but not really cheap either. Figured its in a bedroom so it doesn't have to be super loud, but the sound quality is great! Its very clear, can be louder if you want for a movie, or just overall good sound when watching tv. Glad we made the choice we did and even if we weren't happy with it, I knew that Best Buy has good customer service and would have taken care of us if we weren't satisfied.

    I have not yet worked out all the things that this sound bar is capable of. I know it has a blue tooth feature an I have not yet used that. Provides good sound for TV and movies.

    I purchased this soundbar as a compliment to my new Sony TV. I know soundbars now a day can get pricey so I did as much research as I could to try and stay within my budget. I truly wasn't expecting a whole lot since I didn't spend too much on this product, needless to say I was impressed! It surpassed my expectations as the subwoofer is very nice! I love football and I feel like I'm immersed in the field. With the wireless subwoofer u can move it and set it in any corner you'd like. Whenever I have friends come over I put on pandora and it sounds amazing very easy wireless connectivity. It's also quite simple to set up.

    This system is easy to set up. Not a lot of bass out of this thing. If you are looking for that boom I would go elsewhere. This is a great setup for a small living room

    I've been wanting to get a soundbar for sometime, but didn't want to spend a lot of money and wanted quality product. I found a great deal and have been enjoying my soundbar since. Great product and easy to connect with Sony products. Only need one cord.

    I was in the market for a Soundbar to go with my 4K TV, and there were plenty of high-end ones but I wanted to start with an entry-level to see how the price to performance was going to be. The sound is crisp and clear and the low end leaves room for improvement. Overall a decent experience for the money, personally I'll upgrade to 5.1 surround system but this will hold me over until then.
