Smooth Bass
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this as an anniversary gift to my fiancé and he absolutely loved it! We live in a small apartment so it's just perfect for movie nights, music for hangouts, convenient for listening to podcasts while cleaning, etc. Def worth the investment!

Decent but lacking
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Decent speaker. Good bass level if you live in apartments. However highs leave a lot to be desired. Ended up using tv speaker to get the higher frequencies. Which is a pain having to deal with two separate volumes.

Posted .Hi Mjp15,
Thank you for sharing your feedback on the Sony - HTS400. We're very glad to hear you're enjoying the bass performance, but we understand your concern about the high frequencies and the challenge of managing two separate volumes.
If you'd like to enhance the highs on your soundbar, we recommend checking whether your TV has a built-in equalizer. Adjusting or tuning the equalizer to boost the high frequencies can also improve how the highs sound through the HTS400, which may help create a more balanced listening experience.
We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and for considering Sony products!
Best regards,
Dominick

Sound on a budget
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We moved our entertainment center to a small room and didn’t need a powerful reciever. I opted for a sound bar with 2.1. This paired without issues with our smaller LG 43 in TV. Optical, HDMI(ARC) and Bluetooth all working great as well as sounding great in our 10x10 room!

Simple soundbar for 55in TV or smaller
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy Bravia sync with Sony TV. No preset sound modes. 1 surround option, front facing speakers bring solid Dolby Digital crisp clarity. Comes with an optical cable. Bluetooth communication is good and does not disconnect to subwoofer. The sale price of $200 at time of purchase was very resonable for the performance.

Good Value Soundbar
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a decent soundbar for the money. I like that the subwoofer is wireless, allowing me to place it anywhere in the room I want. My only gripe (a minor one) is it could be a bit more powerful. But the sound is good, dialogue is clear when watching tv.

Great for the price!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this primarily because of the price, but I am amazed at how well it sounds. I didn't need anything loud because my room is small. This fits the bill perfect and the remote is very handy to adjust the bass and volume. Installation is a breeze....

Great for small spaces.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This item is great for small spaces or bedrooms. If you were thinking home theater, look elsewhere. However, if you appreciate clarity and decent bass, this is perfect setup.

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
