- Number of Channels: 3.1 (The number of discrete channels of sound output. This can be a single number or multiple numbers separated by decimal(s). The first number is the primary, horizontally directed audio channels. The number after the first decimal, if applicable, is the number of subwoofer outputs or channels. The number after the second decimal, if applicable, is the number of height or atmospheric channels designed to immerse the listener by producing overhead sound effects.)
- Surround Sound Supported: DTS, DTS 96/24, DTS Virtual:X, DTS-ES, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio, DTS-HD Master Audio, DTS:X, Dolby Atmos, Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD (Surround sound systems use multiple audio channels and speakers to create an immersive sound experience for the listener. There are also various proprietary technologies that imitate this kind of sound via a device's built-in speakers or soundbar.)
- High Resolution Audio: true (Hear music the way musicians and sound technicians intended it to be heard. Products that support hi-res audio deliver audio signals with a dynamic range and bandwidth far greater than that of a standard CD so you'll be able to enjoy pure music with outstanding sound quality. The device supports high-resolution audio signals, which more closely resemble the quality of music as it was originally recorded, with more texture and detail than can be heard via typical music streaming services or CDs.)
- Peak Power Handling: 400 watts (The maximum amount of power an electronic device, like a speaker, can handle without damage. This refers to short bursts of power, while root mean square (RMS) power handling indicates the amount of continuous power a device can sustain. Higher levels of distortion can also occur at peak power levels when the device is powered beyond its recommended usage.)

A: As long as the Sound Bar is plugged into the ARC HDMI on your TV you can plug all your devices into your TV and they will still use the sound bar. I have PS4, XBOX, Apple TV, and Nintendo all plugged into TV and my sound bar plugged into the HDMI that say ARC and all devices play through sound bar. Hope this helps
A: I actually got it resolved. It turns out even the HDMI cables supplied with the bar are not adequate. I purchased some 48 gbps HDMI 2.1 cables from Amazon, and, after I hooked up the bar using those, everything has been working fine now. No more audio drops, DV titles on Netflix and D+ all play perfectly. Not sure why this made a difference, as the cables work on my other 5.1.2 system with my Yamaha RX-A1080. Those same cables do not work with the soundbar however. My guess is it's something to do with the HDCP handshake on your G700. Either way, it's working now.
Q: Whats the main difference between this one and HTZ9F 3.1 Sony soundbar?
A: The htz9f you can add speakers.this sound bar you can't.
Q: Does dolby atmos work via bluetooth? or do you have to use hdmi?
A: Hi there, Thank you for your inquiry! Unfortunately, no. For the Dolby Atmos feature, you will need to connect the HT-G700 using eARC. The eARC allows transfer of the signals of the object audio content, such as Dolby Atmos - Dolby TrueHD and DTS:X, or multichannel LPCM content using an HDMI cable by connecting the system and a TV compatible with eARC. For best results, please make sure to enable eARC of the TV and the Soundbar. I hope this helps! -Carl
Q: Can this sound bar be placed on a table that is 28 inches wide? Is wall mounting preferred?
A: It could but would hang over about 4 1/2 inches on either side. If that’s all I had I’d get a cheap wall mount and do that. It would look better to me.
Q: can I hook this up to a 4 k tv
A: Yes, via an HDMI or HDMI ARC port on your television.
Q: Can you hook up additional speakers to this soundbar?
A: No you cannot.
Q: Can hdmi cable hook up with hdmi arc to hdmi earc
A: Hi Ck2, thank you for your question. Yes, you can hook up the soundbar's HDMI EARC to HDMI ARC which will give sound. However, the bandwidth restrictions of ARC will mean you won't be able to experience the high bitrate audio that eARC can provide. EARC can be switched on/off for this unit. ~Earl
