Sony Bravia Theater Bar 9
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works great and pairs easily with my Sony tv. I have it along the Sony sub and two rears but even without them it still holds really strong and provides a good 3D audio space

Bravia 8 Soundbar & Bravia 7 TV
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought the Bravia 8 soundbar to add with my Bravia 7 TV. We don't have space for lots of speakers. And my wife doesn't like booming bass. This soundbar was the perfect balance for us. Fits under the TV. And the sound quality is clean, clear vocals with enough rumble when needed.

Good soundbar no base at all
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The soundbar is great if you have a bass laying around. With all the speakers in it you would think it would have some kind of bass but it doesnt. Sound is great though for what it is just had to buy a $350 bass just to have some. Also gets 3 stars since i had to return a brand new one cause it didnt sync and best buy had to come out and check for themselves making me go 2 weeks without it. If its on a good deal buy it if not dont bother.

Posted .Hi Jeffrey, we are sorry to hear that your experience with the Sony - BRAVIA Theater Bar 8 has not been as you expected. We understand how frustrating it must've been as well having the first unit not able to sync. In regards to the bass, you do have the option to buy an additional subwoofer but the Soundbar itself comes with an integrated built-in quad woofer, and you can increase the bass level to your preference following some steps:
1- You can increase the bass by pushing the bass (+) button on the supplied remote
2- Set the Sound Field mode on, this will give you a surround sound with a sense of presence
3- If used with a TV you can go into the TV settings and look for a built-in equalizer, you can enhance the bass from there and make it more powerful on the Soundbar.
We hope these steps can help you in making your experience better. Thank you for choosing Sony! Regards, -Dominick

Sounds great but setup not so great.
|Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really love this soundbar, it sounds fantastic in my living room that is prone to echos. The setup is really simple but I do wish we weren't forced to create an account so Sony can collect data for simply wanting to use a soundbar. Once everything is setup though, the connection is a breeze.
