Sound setup simplification
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought these speakers to go with our new tv. We simplified our set up by eliminating 4 speakers, center speaker, sub woofer and receiver than ran all the sound. Just as good as so much simpler. Quick easy set up. No regrets, would purchase again….

Good wireless speaker
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound. Wireless connect can sometimes be a bit buggy. Subwoofer packs a punch. Surround is a bit weak but passable. Nice minimal layout.

Good.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got it used from open box sale. It’s alright, I wasn’t blown away. Had to replace a speaker so all three worked. But now having issues where it’s really quiet. I need to turn the volume up to higher levels in order to hear anything. Where that wasn’t issue before.

Great soundbar and good value
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We had a higher-end LG soundbar, but so happy with this one - it enhances sound enough, and is not too long or big for the set, and overall has a great connection with our set. So happy we went for this for our family.

Very good quality sound.

Good overall
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound is pretty good, but you need to set it up correctly. Read all instructions on the manual of the sound system, and look through the TV/device/program settings you are using so that the settings are all consistent and compatible with each other. Bass could be slightly more prominent, but that's a personal preference. The remote is not very intuitive, and requires some getting-used-to. Otherwise if you're not looking to spend thousands on a sound system and your room is not huge, this is a strong choice.

Great Sound - Reasonable Price - SONY Quality
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Scored this as part of a bundle with a TV. NOT disappointed at all...I've been a Sony user for many years now, and I'm always going back for the quality and dependability in their products. As far as sound goes, this also is VERY good at a reasonable price. I've heard other more expensive soundbars, and can say to me, this one sounds every bit as good. A vast improvement over built-in speakers

Amazing

Posted .Hi MichaelS, we're glad you like the sound quality of our product. We understand your feedback regarding the subwoofer. The subwoofer is designed for playback of bass or low frequency sound. When the input source does not contain much bass sound, such as in TV programs, the bass sound from the subwoofer may be difficult to hear. You can adjust the subwoofer volume by pressing SW buttons on the remote control.

Not worth the stress
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound bar is absolute garbage, way overpriced for poor performance. Subwoofer would cut out, soundbar would randomly stop communicating with tv and sometimes wouldn’t turn off or on. When it worked was great but too many hassles especially for the price. Went with a jbl now that was half the price with same functionality and same sound. Outside consoles I always have problems with Sony products idk why.

Posted .Hi BarryK, Thank you so much for choosing Sony! While we are glad to hear that you are happy with your new HTG700! If your subwoofer isn’t adjacent to a wall in the corner, we recommend placing the subwoofer there to improve your bass performance. Please keep in mind that if the input sources contain very little bass sound components (i.e., a TV broadcast), the sound from the subwoofer may be difficult to hear.

It looks sleek and fits right under our tv perfectly. The sub box is clean looking as well. We've had no issues with the wireless connecting. This makes movie nights the best.

Good Sound Quality, Iffy Connectivity
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound seems good when the soundbar is actually working. I have had multiple instances where the soundbar fails to produce any sound. I'm still unsure of what got the sound working again, but it may have been power cycling the product. I should note that I have not tried to update the firmware yet. I plan to try it, though I don't look forward to loading the update onto a USB drive and transferring it to the soundbar. It seems to me that there should be a way for the smart tv to handle that.

Posted .Hi Instantchef, Thank you for the positive rating! Glad to hear that you are happy with the overall performance of the soundbar. For the firmware update, you may check on this link for more information on how to update the soundbar. https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/home-theater-sound-bars-home-theater-systems/ht-g700/downloads/00017093 (version 1.055). Also, please try these steps to troubleshoot the audio cut out issues.
- Disconnect the HDMI cable or the optical digital cable and then reconnect it
- Disconnect the cable from the soundbar and playback device and then reconnect the cable.
If the issue is resolved, the issue may have been caused by a faulty connection with the cable.
- If there is a device nearby that generates electromagnetic waves, such as a wireless LAN or a microwave oven in use, locate the system apart from it.
- If there is an obstacle between the bar speaker and the subwoofer, move or remove it.
- Do not cover the top of the bar speaker with metal objects such as TV frame, etc. Wireless functions may become unstable.
- Locate the bar speaker and the subwoofer as close as possible
