    This sound bar was an upgrade over the basic 2.1 but the Dolby Atmos label is a little deceiving. You would have to buy the separate rear speakers to get more out of Atmos.

      Hi Audreykate,
      Thank you for your time writing this review. We're glad you like the HTA3000 soundbar. However, we are sorry if the DolbyAtmos sound did not live up to your expectations. You can enjoy object audio content, such as Dolby Atmos - Dolby TrueHD and DTS:X or multi-channel LPCM content that cannot be transmitted with ARC by connecting this soundbar and TV compatible with eARC using a high speed HDMI cable. Also, the content, source or playback device must support Dolby Atmos format. You may find this link helpful on playing Dolby Atmos using a soundbar: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/sound-bars-home-theater-systems-sound-bars-surround-speakers/ht-a3000/articles/00194917

      Adding the optional speakers is also great! With optional rear speakers added (sold separately), 360 Spatial Sound Mapping technology creates a sound field optimized for your unique space enveloping you in sound from multiple phantom speakers. And with and a wide listening area, everyone gets the same sound experience.

    Happy with this soundbar. Paired it with an SA-SWS Sony subwoofer. The soundbar sounded good on it's own but I felt it needed the subwoofer to give me the bass I like. Easy to install. I would recommend it.

    Easy set up. It paired well with my new LG TV. I noticed that there was a break in period. After a week it sounded better, otherwise it's sounded good right out of the box. It paired with the Apple TV remote eliminating the need for multiple remotes.

    Good sound and easy to pair with your Sony TV but if you want to use it in a big room you definitely need to buy other pricey components like rear speakers and subwoofer and if you want to enjoy the full Atmos experience you will need to add those components. The sound bar by itself, and if you are going to use it in a small room is ok . I ended up returning it.

    It works well with the X90K TV, but is a bit quiet on its own. Definitely needs to be paired with a subwoofer and possibly satellite speakers to take full advantage.
