    Much better than our old 3/1 sound bar. Would like to add the subwoofer later.

      Hi BCDC. We're glad to hear that you are enjoying your current soundbar. Adding a subwoofer can significantly enhance your audio experience by providing deeper bass and improving overall sound quality. Thanks for choosing Sony!. -Milton Sony_US

    I bought this to replace the HT-S7000 and accompanying subwoofer. I should have returned it when I had the chance. The remote is worthless. There is no display on this like most of its predecessors at this price point. They force you to use their Bravia app. It continuously disconnects from my bar/woofer and refuses to reconnect. Sad. Genuinely sad. The HT-S7000 still sounded better. Even without Atmos.

    It's expensive for what you get. It doesn't sound any better than my $139 LG soundbar that came with a wireless subwoofer. It is 10 times the price and doesn't come with a subwoofer which is another $350 or $550.
