    The audio level is great for this amount of money.

    Good buy, but not as easy to install as I thought. The remote has to be programed. Plug into TV required special cord.

    The sound bar stopped working after about 8 months. We contacted Sony and they had us mail it back for them to fix and then it stopped working about a month later.

    Sound is definitely an improvement from new Sony Bravia 65" but I find having to turn up near maximum volume at times. For the price I paid, it is still worth it.

    This item is not worth the money. It does not improve the sound quality or volume relative to the TV speakers. It adds a bit of bass, but does not improve the mid range or highs. Look elsewhere. I did, and bought a Yamaha sound bar for not much more money. Much better than this Sony.

    What a waste. After finally getting it to work, the TV speakers sounded better than the sound bar. Am returning it to my Best Buy local store.
