Combo with Sony TV
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So i ended getting this soundbar to match the Sony TV i recently bought, easy plug and play. The price point 200 off originally price also sold me with the combo deal of tv and soundbar. The soundbar quality is ok. Not the best i ever heard. You do have to fiddle with it depending on what kind of movie, gaming console, or music you are listening to. On the PS5 it sounds super clean with 3d audio. Movies i tend to fiddle with it to get to sound clean. Regular Music sounds awesome on it.

Disappointed

Potentially usefully addition to TV
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound bar is great for music, but dialog is a bit difficult with my hearing aids (I'll blame my hearing issue as the likely culprit). There is, however, one unexplained problem - PBS News Hour interview segments have volume issues, i.e., sudden bursts of high volume. This only occurs on the apparently taped segments, and only on the PBS NH. This issue might be in their control room, not the sound bar as it doesn't occur on other channels.

It’s a Sony!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased this unit to match up with my new Sony 65x90j TV. They match up well together, a nice feature is you can adjust the sound bar to suit your preference. You can’t go wrong with Sony, at least that’s my choice.

Sound bar
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good quality and sound. Would sound better in a larger room. I wish the sound bar was a little thinner to allow it to sit under the TV edge.

Open Box Problems and more
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this product in an "Open Box" situation which came with significant savings. The box was not actually open, but had been by a previous buyer who returned it, I imagine. It was resealed with Best Buy tape and was labelled as "missing documentation". It was not actually missing documentation, but was missing the factory remote. Irritating as this was, I then spent a half hour waiting on their automated phone system only to be told that they couldn't help me. Their phone system is not connected to the local store so I would have to GO BACK to the store to see what they would do. Aside from the drive, the store was helpful but could only give me an account credit, not the missing remote. One other slightly irritating thing ... I bought this to link it with my SONY 55" TV. This sound bar is the SONY suggested match for my TV model. Anyway, it takes a rather long time for the sound to come on when the system is turned on ... And once or twice, the sound has not come on at all and I had to switch to the TV speakers and try again later. This is WHY I chose a SONY sound bar ... so I would NOT have any such issues. On the whole, the sound is very good, however. I just expected better product coordination ...

Posted .Hi Soundbar, We are sorry to hear that you are experiencing issues with your HT-G700 Soundbar missing its remote and the soundbar loses its connection with your TV. We'd love to troubleshoot the issue and make this a better experience for you. In the meantime, please try these steps to isolate and troubleshoot the issue that you are having with your soundbar.
First, please make sure that the soundbar is up to date with the firmware (version 1.055) as this will improve the overall performance of the soundbar. You may check this link for more information on how to install the software update to your HT-G700. https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/home-theater-sound-bars-home-theater-systems/ht-g700/downloads/00017093
Unplug the Soundbar power cord and plug it back in
1. Turn off the soundbar.
2. Unplug the power cable from the wall outlet.
3. After one minute, replug the power cable back to the wall outlet.
4. Turn on the soundbar.
Verify if this resolves the issue.
- 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
