    We got it half price, which was awesome (open box). It was very easy to install and set up. The sound is very good, and we switched from a 5.1 sound system to this sound bar. My only complaint is we have to turn the TV on, get it set, then shut it off and turn it back on in order to have sound. A minor annoyance. But it does have very good sound for our space.

    Great sound bar for my 85 in Sony Bravia and synced right in without the HDMI or any cable, both soundbar and sub are wireless gives flexibility to be placed anywhere.

    Sub cuts out/disconnects

    I have owned this for just under a year. For the price, quality is exceptional. I love the sound when it works together. Sound bar is connected via Optical. Every 2-5 minutes(no exaggeration) the subwoofer cuts out intermittently, green light blinks as an indication of attempted reconnection. I have followed Sony’s instructions to reset and ‘fix the issue’, however, does not fix the issue. Very irritating. Considering switching brands as I’ve had better experiences with less commonly known brands..

      Hi BaileyKilgore,

      Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, and we sincerely appreciate your kind words about the exceptional sound quality of the HT-S400 when it's performing as expected. We are genuinely sorry to hear about the frustrating issue you are experiencing with the intermittent subwoofer connection.

      We want to ensure you get the seamless, powerful sound you deserve. Since the basic reset has not resolved this persistent issue, we strongly recommend allowing our dedicated technical support team to conduct a more in-depth diagnostic. They have advanced tools and knowledge to explore potential wireless interference, firmware issues, or other factors that might be causing the subwoofer to drop its connection.

      Please contact our specialists through the link below so they can walk you through further, advanced troubleshooting and work towards a permanent solution:

      We value you as a customer and are committed to resolving this so you can enjoy your home theater setup without interruption.

      Thank you for considering Sony!

      Regards,

    Plenty of bass. Speech has good separation. Virtual Surround is disappointing for a Sony - but that's not what i bought it for. Configuring it through the remote, the buttons on top of the sound bard and the tiny LED readout is kind of clumsy, but once it's done it's done.

    A new sound dimension for the room

    Recently bought a Sony 55" Bravia big screen but the sound as most know has a lot to be desired. So, I knew a Sony soundbar would be a big upgrade to match the tv...and I wasn't disappointed in the results. Simply followed the instructions included and the set-up wasn't too hard to figure out and the wireless subwoofer makes a real difference for the room. Just remember to connect the skinny optical cable too.

    Great sound the difference between the sound on the bar and my new TV is amazing. I have heard people say they cannot tell the difference but when my sound bar wasn’t connected right I definitely noticed the sound is so crisp and clear on the bar..

    I am a bit of an audio snob, this soundbar does a pretty decent job to my standards at this price point, it delivers a very punchy and clear bass and it integrates perfectly with my samsung TV, using an HDMI + Optical Cable did the trick, I can control the soundbar with just the TV remote. I was a bit skeptical at the store but I have 0 regrets and I'm keeping it
