Great system, strong bass, great value
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This may only be a 2.1 system, but the sound is amazing. Much better than most of the others out there that I tried. Hard to go wrong for the price.

It’s great to hear that after trying out other systems, the HT-S400 came out on top for you. We put a lot of work into our S-Force PRO Front Surround technology to make sure a 2.1 system can still deliver that immersive, amazing sound you're describing. We're glad you feel you got a great value!
Thank you for choosing Sony!

Sound Value
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the money, which is relatively low in the sound bar world, it is a good value. If you’re looking for premium sound I’d spend more. But for casual tv/movie/sports etc watching this is better than your tv built ins by far.

Amazing Sound
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the first sound bar I’ve ever purchased, but combined with my new Bravia tv it’s turned my living room into an incredible theatrical experience! The settings and features allow you to tailor your sound to be totally immersive without needing to be loud, which is nice because I’m usually watching tv after everyone in my house has gone to bed, not having to sacrifice sound quality for volume is amazing.

Worth the price
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this system for use in my garage. The sound is clear and the bass hits hard. The bass is strong enough to shake the walls and annoy my wife, which is always a plus. The soundbar is thin and the system is simple to get going right out of the box. The system is more than loud enough at 50 percent volume and maintains clarity going beyond. I'm not sure how well it works for movies, but it does a very god job for music in a home gym. I would definitely recommend.

Meets needs at a great price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I found this soundbar/subwoofer combo a decent performer and a very good value for the money. It does suffer from the lack of a separate center channel and it's overall sound volume is a bit lacking. But for the price you have to give up something and this system compensates for those lackings quite well. The subwoofer is stronger than I expected and provides very good bass sounds. Overall, it meets my needs for the price in willing to spend.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.At the price point, it doesn't get much better than this. Sony is still making top quality products that just sound fantastic to the ear. Setup in less than 5 minutes and linked my bluetooth and tv with no problems. The bass trembles the room and the mid-range and treble are crisp. This setup is incredible value for the price, would recommend to everyone.

Fantastic sound bar!
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This sound bar is amazing!! Im an automotive tech and i bought it as my sound system in the shop at work, and let me tell you…….THIS THING IS LOUD!! Sound quality is awesome! I even still have the bass at 0 if that says anything. I tried these out in the store and they blew everything away in the same price range and eveb some of the more expensive ones!! Very happy with this product!!….The only negative thing i have to say is that sometimes the subwoofer will make a sudden extra loud thump at certain times, other than that 10/10.
