      Hi DianeB,

      We are thrilled to hear that your husband is so happy with the BRAVIA Theater Bar 8! By using our 360 Spatial Sound Mapping technology and 11 dedicated speaker units, we designed this bar to create immersive "phantom speakers" throughout your room for a true cinematic experience. It is wonderful to know that the combination of clear dialogue and overhead effects is providing the high-quality sound he was looking for.

      Thanks for choosing Sony.

    At my age and having multiple surround sound set ups, I was looking for something that was very clear and I could hear more detail. The salesman suggested this first and I absolutely love it. It does exactly what I want: it is very clear, no distortion, no overwhelming bass and easy to use with the app. It’s the first set up my wife has ever approved.

    We upgraded out TV and decided to upgrade the sound too. We were used to having surround sound and bought this along with a subwoofer when we purchased the TV. It is doing really well for us, we also have the subwoofer and added rear speakers. Sound is really nice, my husband is a sound man and has training operating sound systems. He has mentioned several times how good the sound is.
