Sounds good
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This sound bar / subwoofer combo sounds good in our basement. Big improvement over the older soundbar we had from Bose. If you have a Sony Bravia TV then you’re gonna be really happy because everything integrates with your TV and remote. Recommend using a HDMI cable and not the optical cable provided for the best experience.

Humble option for modest taste
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.bought this JBL Soundbar for home , but unfortunately, my husband didn’t like it and so I returned it. While the sound was decent, he found it lacking in bass and overall depth compared to what he was expecting. It’s a good budget option if you’re looking for basic sound improvement, but for someone who really loves great sound quality, it didn’t quite cut it. The return was easy, though, so no issues there.

Good value
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the money I think it’s a great. Subwoofer is more than enough (tucked into the corner of the room for added effect). Soundbar could be better in terms of sound output but for the price it’s okay(I know the wattage is low).

Solid product, works as advertised
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought as an open box, great item for the price but i feel like the sound bar iteslf lacks a little with bass and lower sounds compared to my older LG sound bar. Sub makes up for that a bit. Only small complaint but overall we are happy.

Posted .Hi Kyle,
We’re happy to hear you’re enjoying your new soundbar! To improve those lower frequencies, please ensure "Night Mode" is turned off and use the BASS buttons on your remote to boost the output. Experimenting with different "Sound Field" settings can also help deliver the richer, deeper audio profile you're looking for.
Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards,
Eliab

Posted .Hi MargaretA!
Thanks for your feedback regarding the HT-S400.
It brings us great satisfaction to hear that you’re enjoying the high quality sound of your setup.
Regarding the sync issue, it sounds like the HDMI-CEC might just need a quick refresh. We recommend checking that "Control for HDMI" is turned on in your soundbar settings.
You can find all the step-by-step details in the manual: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/res/manuals/5034/7831498f50f2674a02356156810c655a/50347731M.pdf
You might also try a quick power reset by unplugging them from the wall for two minutes to get everything back in sync.
If further assistance is needed, you can get in contact with our support team https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US&category=ht

Sony HT S400 soundbar
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ive had this soundbar for a little under a year now and its awesome, i love it. Sure it doesnt have all the features that some of the other soundbars have but it has HDMI ARC, optical and bluetooth and thats all i need. Sound quality is good and while im not an audiophile i do like good sound quality and this has it. I got mine on a black friday sale for $149.99. At the time of writing this (11/13/2023) its on sale for $199.99. It may be a little high but Sony is known for their home entertainment products. I mainly use mine for watching TV and listening to music. Sometimes when im watching TV it sounds like the sound is coming from straight in front of me. (TV and soundbar are offset). Of course thats a placement thing. Overall, awesome 2.1 soundbar that works great in a bedroom
I would recommend this to a friend Great choice

Glad i bought it
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound is lower than the television I purchased, but the sound is clearer, crispier than the TV. If i used the original TV sound it would echo in my room, this really cleaned that up, and the bass really makes me feel like i am in the theater(small room)
