    Not bad for 2.1 but needed more Bass

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I got this because of a persuasive salesman. For a 2.1 system this sound bar is not bad. I was looking for a little more depth and bass. I am guessing my brand of TV was not as great as what was on display at the store. I am giving 3 stars because for the price and options it is not bad if you are looking for something that will not totally blow you away. I had to return and go with the 5.1 sound bar systems I was originally going to get.

    This soundbar did not meet my expectations

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This soundbar hasn't met my expectations. The audio from the TV is not far from that of this soundbar. In an effort to extend/increase my audio experience I have to increase the volume significantly. In addition, the bass output is subpar. In addition, to my expectations and experience I've had with this soundbar, I've compared it to another soundbar I have where the sound & bass quality is superior to this one. Therefore, I cannot see myself purchasing another Sony soundbar.

    Great products and the technicians were very professional. They took the time to educate me on the use and support of these products.

    Bar was quiet / no bass noticable.

    The bar produced some decent sound. It was also wasy to connect. However, the bass produced basically nothing even on media I know is capable of a nice bassy sound. Not worth the money.

    Poor. The ups and downs of the volume is unbearable. And the bass sounds like thunder no matter the bass level.

      Hi MichaelH,

      Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We are sorry to hear that you are experiencing inconsistent volume levels and overwhelming bass with your HT-S400 soundbar. We would like to provide a few steps to help balance your audio experience:

      1. Check Sound Modes: The "Night" and "Voice" functions can significantly alter how volume is perceived. Press the NIGHT button on your remote to ensure this mode is OFF, as it is designed to compress the dynamic range (making quiet sounds louder and loud sounds quieter), which may be causing the fluctuations you're hearing.

      2. Perform a System Reset: If the audio remains unbalanced, a reset can restore the soundbar to its factory default settings. To do this, press and hold the (Power) and – (Volume Down) buttons on the soundbar for more than 5 seconds. After this, disconnect the AC power and then reconnect it again.

      If these steps do not resolve the issue, we encourage you to contact our technical support team directly for further assistance: https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US&category=ht

      Thank you for considering Sony!

      Regards,
      Dominick Sony_US

    We treated ourselves to a new Smart TV and after shopping around found the Sony soundbar. Works wonderful! We are very pleased.
