Customer Ratings & Reviews

This system packs a serious punch. Setup took a normal amount of time and he pretty much dependent on where you want to place the speakers. The subwoofer is pretty much a beast. Its bigger than I expected and has a good bit of weight to it. After hooking it up and hearing the bass, it is understandable as to why. The sound bar itself while sleek has poweful and very crisp and clear sound. The subwoofer and sound bar connect together so be sure to account for cable length. Wish the HDMI cable that comes with it was longer. Since my TV was wall mounted, I had to order a 15 foot cable to make it all work. The rear satellite speakers connect to a module and the module then plugs into a standard wall outlet. These speakers provide excellent surround sound that takes movies and sports broadcasting to a new level. You can mount the soud bar to the wall also if you wish. The rear speakers can be mounted, placed on a flat surface or you can utilize speaker stands which are not included. The 5.1 channel performs as you would expect. Very clear and concise sound. Dolby Atmos is also supported. The rear speakers provide a decent amount of slack so you can run the speakers as you see fit. This is ideal for a medium to large living space. I am impressed with this sound system. I have it connected to a new 77 inch Bravia 8 4K TV. Installing the speaker system again is straightforward and you also need to install the app. Overall I am very pleased and would highly recommended this system!

This theater system by Sony is an absolute beast! Getting set up and running was pretty straightforward, especially with the app. It walked me through every step, and I got it up and running in no time. Additionally, the rear speakers do not need to be wired to the front speakers, so there's no annoying wiring installation that needs to happen. It's really user-friendly in my opinion and 100% the way to go. The sound quality is insane. It's truly immersive and extremely satisfying. I always feel like the sound mixing for movies is horrible because the dialogue is usually hard to hear while the music and sound effects are crystal clear. That issue is remedied with the sound bar that is specifically meant for dialogue. It's so lovely and has saved me so many ear aches by not needing to turn the volume up significantly to hear dialogue. The back speakers and the subwoofer really put in the work to make it feel like you're in a theater. I can not express to you how satisfying it is to just sit down and get lost in a film with this new sound system. The only frustrating issue I have with this system is that you need a compatible Bravia TV to get the most out of the system using Voice Zoom 3. However, it's not something that's keeping me from enjoying it, just something to keep in mind if you don't have a compatible Bravia TV. Other than that, I absolutely love it. Def recommend!

I really like the sound of this sound bar. In all my years of testing out sound bars this is probably on of the best sounding ones I have ever used. Which is also why this is one of the most confounding pieces of tech I have used It's modern but also very old school and in some ways it works but in other ways it really holds it back. Let me explain by going through the setup easy while also being a bit of pain in the butt. This sound bar is wireless but also not and let me explain why. You take the system out of the box and the actual bar has no electronic components to it. all it has is one cable that connects to the subwoofer. the subwoofer is where all your connections are housed so this leads to two things. its bigger than you would normally have for this size and you have to have it relatively close to your tv so you can run your HDMI or optical cable to it. now you go ok well the sound bar and subwoofer are connected the rear have to be wireless? right? well your half right they are wireless sorta, they come with a box that the wired speakers connect to where there in lies the problem see the connections to the box from the speakers are proprietary connector so your stuck with the cable you get. this is where my problem lies as the rear of my room is open so I cannot run the cables in the back and they are not long enough to run from the front to the side of my couch. This is the biggest downside for me as the speakers are a bit in front of me and not behind. which takes away some of the effect. don't get me wrong the sound bar still sounds amazing and voices come in through clean and crisp.

Easy to setup and great sound. The base gives a movie like experience.

Sound bars have come a long way. This Sony sound bar system is more comparable to a home theater in a box than just a standard sound bar. It has the main sound bar, two satellite surround sound speakers, a subwoofer and the wireless module for the rear speakers. All these components feel very well built and have some weight to them. The look is very simple with an all black finish. Setting it up was pretty straightforward. Once everything was set up and dialed in, I tested it out with some movies. The sound for movies was alright at best. The front soundstage had a very tinny sound and didn't separate the left, center and right channels very well. The surrounds work as they should also sound very tinny. The subwoofer is decent but doesn't really impress me. The atmos effect was non existent. That was very disappointing. It's definitely better than the built in tv speakers or even a standard soundbar, but the sound quality is not there. I'd prefer an actual system with separate speakers over this., for immersive audio. For music, I used bluetooth and it sounded decent. I prefer the sound for music over the sound for home theater. I feel for this price point, it isn't worth it. This should be much cheaper. Overall, I don't think it performs as promised in the descriptions.

Great sound! Very easy to set up and sync with devices.

Couldn’t get system to link with the TV exchange. The unit at Best Buy was told the unit would be here the next day again Best Buy screwed up made commitments they couldn’t keep.
