||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good soundbar for price. Only negative is subwoofer needs to be +3 volume to get good base on most content

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!

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Decent sound bar. Set up was very easy and pretty good sound for the price.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat for the price point!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This sound bar is an excellent value and worth every penny. Sounds come in crisp and the subwoofer provides a great punch - especially when watching movies or listening to music via the blue tooth function. If you're considering this item and have a Sony TV already - this is a no brainer. Attach the HDMI cord, and the transition is seamless between the two products.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not quite as loud as I had hoped. Great starter kit, though. Nice display. Sleek design and look. Setup up was quite easy with my Sony TV. One downside is that it seems to have difficulty syncing sound with the closed captioning/subtitles while using bluetooth. This could be app specific, but it happens enough to quite annoying. Depends upon what you are looking for, but this isn't bad. Just was hoping for more.
