      Thank you for your feedback on the K55XR80, JoeyD! We appreciate your input regarding sound quality.

      For enhanced audio experiences, adding a soundbar is a great option. Soundbars not only provide superior sound quality compared to built-in TV speakers, but they also offer a more immersive experience, especially for movies and music.

      The BRAVIA 8 offers a variety of connection options, including HDMI (eARC/ARC), optical, and Bluetooth. For more detailed information about these connections, please visit:

      Once again, thank you for your review and for choosing Sony!

    They were purchased at retail, in Greece, NY. I self-installed (existing wall mount) and set the TV and audio system up. The product works well, with strong endorsements from my family and Consumer Reports.
