Needs More Power
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Set up was easy but fine tuning the sound was harder than it needed to be. Once we found the optimal setting, I found it was too soft and had to turn the volume up 3/4 of the way. I ended up returning it and purchasing the Sony HT-A5000 5.1 channel Dolby Atmos sound bar and am much happier.

SOUND- JUST OK
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound is not great! I think the TV sounds better without it. I think the biggest reason is because it does not have the full sound system- speakers and subwoofer. I would not recommend buying without the full setup.

Posted .Hi AmyM,
We are sorry to hear that the HT-A3000 didn't meet your expectations as a standalone bar. While it features a built-in dual subwoofer and Vertical Surround Engine for virtual Atmos, it is designed as a modular system that supports 360 Spatial Sound Mapping only when paired with optional wireless rear speakers (SA-RS3S or SA-RS5) and a separate subwoofer (SA-SW3 or SA-SW5) for a truly cinematic experience.
Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards,

Amazing Soundbar!
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent sound bar! I took a complete chance on this one, I knew nothing about the bar and simply picked it up from the open box area of the store hoping for the best. Didn't even know the price, but wow this bar completely upgraded my listening experience. For the price point well worth the purchase just added the 200 Watt sub they offer because I love the bar so much. All around would recommend.

New al a Carte soundbar
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased this soundbar to replace an older Sony soundbar so that I could use the "center speaker" on my new Sony TV. Whereas this soundbar with the TV was good, I'm not sure it was worth it, as it needed the Subwoofer to really provide the full range of sound that I had with the older system.

Small but powerful sound
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this small but powerful Sony Sound bar to add to my Sony 55” Oled for my bed room. No upward firing speakers but can still give that Dolby Atoms feel. Clear , crisp sound that sound true from any spot in the room I’m standing at. Will be adding rear surround speakers in the near future.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent sounds! We have never had a sound bar before. Got this to go with our new Sony Bravia TV, What a difference! Like being at the movies. Next step is to add a woofer and rear speakers. Used the soundbar as a test to see if adding speakers made a difference. Oh my did it ever!

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It was a pleasure to have owned this soundbar. I was surprised at how powerful this item delivered. I don't use the soundbar for my big screen TV but as an independent USB player for my workspace in the garage. I works beautifully. I imagine it would be equally powerful when attach to the TV.
