    This soundbar works seamlessly with Sony TV's, especially when using the S-Center Out to link up with your TV speakers. This works very well with wireless Sony speakers and wireless Sony subwoofers. The bass in this soundbar is really good, but a dedicated wireless subwoofer completes the sound profile. I would recommend adding a sub before adding rear speakers if you are on a budget. As the rear speakers help, but the sub makes more of a difference.
