Great for smaller spaces!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My place isn't too big, so I was hesitant to put a soundbar in it but I'm sure glad I did. Clear audio, great quality, easy to connect and doesn't take up a lot of space. You'll love the choice you made getting this soundbar.

Sony sound bar
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I exchanged a Vizio soundbar for this one. The store employee was very helpful and didn't push. So far, this soundbar has been great, easy to hook up and the sound quality is great.

great for watching movies!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great for TV not so great for computer. Really great sound quality though. The lag when used on my computer was so bad so I only use it for watching tv and listening to music sometimes.

Sony soundbar
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I highly recommend this sound bar for a bedroom, dorm, or any small room. Has good sound with decent bass. You won't get the same level of bass that you would with a subwoofer, but its good enough if you're short on space or using it in a small room. Very happy with this purchase.

Good overall
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like the nice compact size. Good for music with the right amount of bass for an apartment. The different sound modes are nice. Unfortunately this soundbar is not so great for movies on various streaming apps. Netflix and Disney Plus seem to be the worst. Hulu works the best but even that could be better. Basically its hard to hear movie dialog. You can turn up the volume but then you'll get super loud scenes. Turning up and down the volume during movies becomes frustrating after a while. Not sure what can be done.

The greatest purchase I've ever made.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I actually purchased this for my CMV Truck since I sit for 2 days every week to reset my hours. So I stream my movies and TV shows. That being said this is by far the best 2.1 Bluetooth surround sound bar I've ever had. I love its sound in my small cab area.

Works great, bought two
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works well for our bedroom and LEGO room TV's.

Good Sound for a Small Room
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We purchased the Sony soundbar for our RV. We wanted to improve the sound when watching TV. The trailer is not large and we didn't want to take up a lot of space. This was the perfect way to accomplish our goal. The sound is good, and the device takes up very little space.

AWESOME sound
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This soundbar has great sound. Amazing . I like the fact that it has a built in sub-woofer , unlike older models that have a separate sub-woofer. Has a clear sound with all types of music and movies. A huge improvement of the speakers built into the tv set.

Best $150 soundbar
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have this sound bar mounted on to two smaller tv's in very small rooms so a seperate subwoofer would not have been practical. This little number is excellent. Great bass and great improvement over the tv speakers.

Great sound bar!!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have a good 5.1 sound set up for my main tv. I decided to set up my smaller tv in my bedroom. My other system spoiled me, besides the sound on the tv is just not great. So after looking around I decided to go with this sound bar. I hooked it up with digital optical cable to my tv, and hdmi from my tv to my little blu-ray player. My tv doesn’t have the hdmi arc in or outputs. I think that’s so you can use less remote controls. I don’t mind using the included remote to adjust volume. Really impressed with how rich and clear everything sounds! The little woofer definitely gives a theater vibe. This is the way to go if you want to improve a smaller room set up, OR even if you just want better sound for a regular set up. Highly recommend!!

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased this to hear audio better than it v speakers. It does make voice much easier to understand. It’s not a high end sound bar but it does what I want it to do. Haven’t cranked it up much but when I have it sounds just fine
