    Ugly Subwoofer and Underperforming Sound bar

    If you're looking to splurge on a brand name that once enjoyed great popularity but has since faded from its former glory, consider this Sony soundbar. Despite its prestigious label, the sound quality leaves much to be desired, characterized by mediocre audio performance. The accompanying subwoofer, which has a bulky and outdated design, adds to the disappointment with its lackluster bass response and strained treble. Overall, this setup may not deliver the immersive sound experience you hope for, leaving you with a product that feels more nostalgic than practical.

    Speaker and sub are ok. The voices are hard to hear unless volume is turned up and then the bass is almost too much. Was damaged in shipping and was not given very good options.

    Subwoofer started sounding distorted and wasn’t working very well after a month of purchase. I would not recommend this. I may have purchased a device that was defective but honestly you can find better.

    • Brand response from SonyListens
      Posted .

      Hello BREANAC,

      Thank you for considering Sony products.

      We sincerely apologize that you're experiencing issues with the subwoofer on your HT-S400 soundbar. That's definitely not the quality experience we want you to have, and we're here to help get it resolved.

      To help fix this, please try the following:

      1. Check your firmware version:

      Make sure your soundbar is updated to Version 1.188. You can check and download it here: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/sound-bars-home-theater-systems-sound-bars-surround-speakers/ht-s400/software/00278020

      2. Reset and re-link your subwoofer:

      Hold the power and volume (–) buttons on the soundbar for 5+ seconds until you see “[RESET]” on the display. Then unplug and plug back in the power cord.

      After that, manually re-link the subwoofer by following the steps in the manual here:
      https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/res/manuals/5034/7831498f50f2674a02356156810c655a/50347731M.pdf

      If you encounter any recurring issues after completing the steps provided, please be aware that your unit is protected by a 1-year limited manufacturer's warranty.

    Good soundbar. But does not standard modes. This causes us to tweak sound manually.
