Good Value for the Money you pay.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very good sound bar for the price and for a medium-sized room. However, for the best value, I would highly recommend pairing it with the rear wireless speakers and subwoofer system.

The complete soundbar, imo.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Absolutely love this bad boy! To me..... This sony soundbar stands out as a clear winner for me cause it has the lows, mids, and highs all in 1 package. I don't even find need for a sub woofer. I only added rears for that complete surround sound.

Built-in subwoofers provide an additional boost to low end frequencies. Vertical Surround Engine and S-Force Pro Front Surround creates immersive sound from all around, while Dolby Atmos® and DTS:X® lend a more realistic, multi-dimensional sound to your content. Thanks for choosing Sony!

Great soundbar
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works great with my a80k OLED. I was sceptical with the atmos from one soundbar. This aoundbar really delivers. The bass is punchy enough on its own. The surrounds arw great as well. The option to add trhe sub amd surrounds later is a pous as well.
