    Not the best option but for the money not a bad option. I did have to take it back as the sub would intermittently get disconnected from the sound bar and it should be a plug and play when connected to a new Sony TV.

    There's a difference between a good product and a well advertised product. Prior to my purchase, I did a quick "research" (aka Googling Best Soundbar of Insert-Year-Here) and noticed Sony doesn't even make it to the top 10 on top search results. Sony has deep rich base and doesn't lose frequency. It has really good quality build and legit Atmos effects.

    Replaced my old bulky 5.1 system that I didn’t really have room for. Now a much cleaner look under my tv. Was easy to set up and I find the dialog easier to hear. Even with all the sound adjustments my old system had, never could seem to get the dialog right. I added the rear speakers too. In my room, with the tv in a corner, just works better for me
