Great Product
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this after my old sound system wasn’t working, it’s been amazing after upgrading to this sound system. It was easy to set up, and it sounds great.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat buy!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great soundbar with wireless subwoofer! Gets really loud with very little limiting. Is the perfect size for a 55 in TV fits right in between the stand legs but blocks the remote sensor which is kind of an annoyance. Overall, great product!
I would recommend this to a friendMuch better than TV speakers once it was setup
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sounds great once I got it working. I have a 2017 Sony Bravia tv that has an HDMI/ARC port but it took a lot of playing with settings to get it to work right and I still had to connect the optical connection. But now I can control the soundbar and the tv with just the tv remote. One big challenge was to reduce the audio latency so it was not noticeable, which again took a lot of playing with settings. I think this is the problem with my older tv, not the soundbar, although I have seen reviews where the latency on this model is not great. One really great surprise feature is that there is an IR blaster built in, which is a good thing since the soundbar blocks the IR receiver on the tv. I might have gone with the Roku pro soundbar, that was my second choice.

Posted .Thank you for sharing your feedback on the HT-S400, Rj25. We're pleased to hear you find it a good value for the price.
Regarding your observation about the subwoofer: subwoofers are designed to reproduce low-frequency bass sounds, which can sometimes be less pronounced depending on the type of content played and individual room acoustics. It's not uncommon for users to adjust the subwoofer volume to a higher setting, such as +3, to achieve their preferred level of bass—especially with content that doesn't emphasize low frequencies by default.
If you find you consistently need to increase the subwoofer to +3 for satisfactory bass, that's within normal use parameters, and many listeners tweak this setting to match their preferences and listening environment. For optimal bass performance, also make sure the subwoofer is placed in an open space, away from obstacles like walls or large furniture, as these can affect bass perception.
If you ever notice sudden drops in bass or have difficulty hearing low frequencies even at higher subwoofer levels, checking the connection and ensuring the subwoofer is not in standby mode can help maintain consistent performance.
We appreciate your input and are glad you're enjoying the soundbar overall!
Thank you for choosing Sony!

Amazing sound bar
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the price I was blown away with hiw simple it was to set up, how good it looked with my system and how amazing it sounded
I would recommend this to a friendGreat Sound Bar
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The setup was very easy, but I am a techie. For the price I think the sound is very good and the bass really adds the boom. I like that it shuts off the sound bar and the subwoofer from the remote. I have watched a few movies now and it really adds to the movie experience.
