Best hearing aid for watching TV

I love these new TV speakers! I used to use the headphone type TV "ears" to help me hear better but this is so much more comfortable and light around my neck. Another great feature is if I get up and decide to walk away from my TV, I can continue hearing clearly what is going on unlike my old "ears" that just went to static if I faced away from the TV. I can also turn the volume completely off on the TV so no one else in the room has to hear it and still enjoy whatever I am watching. Thank you Sony!
Hi ReneeC, You've made an excellent choice! We are truly happy to hear your purchase went well and you are very pleased with its exceptional audio quality and overall features. Glad to know you appreciate the open-ear design as well as it immerses you in movies without disturbing others and that you can watch and listen away from your device while still being aware of what’s going on around you. Thank you so much for purchasing the BRAVIA Theater U Wearable TV Speaker and for choosing Sony! -Jess

Exactly what i was looking for - now if only i could turn down the BASS !!!!! …. No treble !!! Barely make out voices over the BASS … Please please if anyone know how to turn down the BASS ?? i saw another customer review that said there’s no BASS !! Then their headphones are broken !!! Or they are insane.. i put these on a hard surface and i can get it to “walk” across that surface .. thought there might be a app to adjust ?? Thanks

Decent audio for podcasts and tv shows, but if you’re expecting magic out of these things, don’t bother.
They’re just basic speakers with weak bass. The 3D doesn’t really work that well because the channels always seem slightly out of sync making me feel like I’m in an echo chamber instead of sound bubble.

Sounds amazing, the detail is crystal clear and surround effects work great. Can be heard by other people in the room, but provides theatre system sound without disturbing the rest of the house, perfect for using at night. It would be nice if it had more bass. I use it daily.
You made the right choice! We're glad that you like the sound quality of the neckband speaker. Thank you for choosing Sony!

Great sound. Our LG Oled tv was able to connect two headsets and it was easy to setup.
The sound is great but could be better. I'll give it a 9 out of 10 and only because it doesn't support Atmos sound. *****
We’re glad to hear you're enjoying the sound quality of the BRAVIA Theater U and that it paired so easily with your setup.
We actually have some good news for you! While the neckband itself is a stereo speaker, it does support Dolby Atmos when paired with a compatible BRAVIA TV. By using our 360 Spatial Sound Personalizer technology, it can create a virtual surround field that delivers that immersive Atmos experience right to your ears.
We’re happy it’s hitting a 9/10 for you—thanks for choosing Sony!
Best regards,
Gus Sony Social Media Team

As much sounds as I could hope for from a neck phone speaker. We use this behind the desk in our gallery while watching TV on the monitor so when people walk in it doesn't look like we're wearing headphones, and if it's playing it can't be heard by customers over the gallery music. Extremely comfortable.
Hi DanM, Thank you for your amazing review! We're thrilled to hear that the HT-AN7 is meeting your expectations. It's great to know that you find it extremely comfortable and that it provides the perfect sound experience for your gallery setting. Thanks for choosing Sony! -Sam

I've been a Sony fan for many years. With my new Bravia tv purchase, I couldn't resist this Bravia bluetooth neck piece. Easily pairs with Bravia tv as well as both Samsung phone and tablet.
The sound quality is all around you, just remarkable. The range is quite surprising, can easily go from living room to bedroom with no breakups. Charges with c power cord, same as phone and tablet. Great purchase, very pleased.
Hi UncleKev, Awesome! We are glad to hear that you are happy with your new HTAN7! Thank you for choosing Sony! -Carl

Perfect device for many reasons

This device has been perfect for several reasons. First, my hearing is somewhat compromised and this device allows me to hear everything perfectly while watching my new TV. I also like it since being wireless I can move about my condo while continuing to hear a program. Best reason this device is perfect: I had to move into a one level condo with no stairways for mobility reasons. I have someone living over me in my condo. I was very concerned with disturbing them with loud volumes from my TV. This device is very quiet away from my shoulders and I am sure does not disturb my upstairs neighbor.

Feels like I have a full surround system when I'm watching a movie. Even when the audio is fairly loud for me it's not loud for anyone else. I bought this not wanting to wear anything on my ears or head for audio and they are a perfect choice.
Thank you for sharing your fantastic review, BranM!
We are so pleased to hear that the HT-AN7 personal neckband speaker is providing the perfect audio solution for you!
It's rewarding to know that you feel like you have a full surround system when watching movies—that immersive, personal sound experience is exactly what we designed this product to achieve. We are also glad the unique design meets your specific need of not wanting to wear anything on your ears or head.
We appreciate you choosing Sony for your personal cinematic audio experience!

Really good sound quality and battery. I would still choose a sound bar and surround sound speakers over this for its price. Overall I'm content with my purchase. I would recommend this for anyone living in an apartment or has roommates.
Hi Chris, Thank you for your feedback on the BRAVIA Theater U Wearable TV Speaker! We're thrilled you love the sound quality and battery life. We understand the price may not suit everyone, and we appreciate your suggestion for apartment dwellers. Thank you for choosing Sony! - Romeo

The Sony Bravia Theatre U is an amazing speaker, that allows you to have a more personalize experience. I've been using this speaker for about 5 weeks and its been an amazing experience for listening to content without disturbing others around me at lower volume without the need of earbuds.
You made the right choice! We're thrilled that you like the sound quality of the neckband speaker. Thank you for choosing Sony!

Game Changing Audio

I bought these on a whim. I have my own personal office space that I use for work and gaming. I’ve had desk speakers but the audio just wasn’t quite right. I made the decision to get this “neck set” and it’s so much of a better option. You can have great audio that won’t disturb everyone around you. Even at a more than normal sound volume you can still hear the environment if necessary. I no longer get fussed out by family (wife lol) to turn the audio down I can enjoy surround sound Dolby Atmos quality. It is refreshing. I don’t think I could go back in this kind of format.
It is a bit on the pricey side but if you have the funds to get it don’t even question it. Especially if you’re using a newer Sony television. I personally changed from a monitor to a LG C4 OLED for my desk space and the picture quality with this audio is amazing.
Plus you can also take calls from it (it will stop audio from input) but once you’re done it will resume.
Hi AlanM! Thanks for sharing your feedback with us! It is most rewarding to hear that your new neckband speaker is working out so well for your late-night movie marathons.
We appreciate you choosing Sony! Best regards, Estefany

A Best Buy associate let us listen as we were buying a TV and we ended up walking out with this as well. Surprisingly great sound that surrounds you without cutting you off from ambient sound. Barely audible to others even when you have it turned up. You need to experience it — much nicer than wearing ear buds.
Hi TomS, That's great! It's wonderful to learn that you love the exceptional audio and overall performance of your Sony HT-AN7 neckband speaker. Your assessment is spot on! With an open-ear design you can watch and listen away from your device while still being aware of what’s going on around you. Thank you so much for offering a fantastic rating on the product! -Jess

So we got this on sale for $200. We thought it was just for fun and didnt really need it since we have the sony surround sound already. Boy was I wrong....that is exctly why we needed it. Wife complains I watch movies to loud. And I complain she plays video games to loud. This solves all that. I forget I have it on sometimes and think it is just our surround sound. Great addition to our home theater
We are thrilled to hear that the BRAVIA Theater U has become such a great addition to your home! It’s wonderful that the immersive sound helps you both enjoy your movies and games at the perfect volume without any complaints.
Thanks for choosing Sony.

Greatest idea for people who aren’t comfortable wearing a device over your ears. Sometimes headphones might increase your body temperatures. Some people have specific size ears and they might be too sensitive to wear headphones that are in-ear. This design gives the user to hear it all, while giving the surroundings minimal disturbances.
It brings us great joy to hear you're enjoying your HTAN7! We worked hard to create a comfortable and innovative listening experience for those who prefer not to use traditional in-ear or over-ear headphones. It's wonderful to know that our design is making a difference for you and providing a solution that works with your body's temperature and ear sensitivity.
Best regards, -Fred

Good sound, works as advertised. Great alternative to headphones when you're not feeling like wearing them. Sounds can be heard if you're in the same room, but drops quickly with distance. Bass could be a bit more punchy, but great detail in the sound.
Hi CCtv, Thank you for your positive feedback on the BRAVIA Theater U Wearable TV Speaker! We're glad to hear that you enjoyed the personalized surround sound and great sound quality. We understand your decision to return it. By downloading the Sony Sound Connect app, you will find all sorts of tools to fine-tune the neckband speaker using the built-in EQ to ensure optimal listening experience.
