    I added the rear speakers to the set which helps. Not great at vertical sound (Dolby atmos), and I have had trouble with the sound bar disconnecting from the tv over eARC hdmi. I’ll try upgrading the hdmi cable and see if that helps. Bought as a bundle with a Sony TV - so the price was right.

    This was a great addition to the Sony 900 series 75” TV. The sound bar dramatically improves the sound from sports and movies while the sub woofer adds that theater like thump. It has great functionality for using the blue tooth technology like using headphones or streaming something from your phone. I’m debating about adding the rear speakers, as well.

    Bestbuy didn’t provide the wall mounting brackets or an hdmi cable. There was also styrofoam EVERYWHERE and had to clean it before use. Great soundbar so far though, very impressed with the Sony part of it.

    I like the sound bar - it does the job. However it isn't as spectacular as the in store display was. The volume has to be turned up to loud on the TV for all 4 of the speakers to come on. If you want the volume soft, it doesn't give the full range of sounds.
