Pros & Cons

Pros

The built in subwoofers perform so far above expectations. It's not spectacular, but it's also not bad for about $300. Would highly recommend and buy again.

If you have two devices you'd like on the passthrough, you might want to consider an upgrade. The arc has a noticeably fuller sound. Latency on the arc is good, even though everything is run through the h9g.

Sub woofers built in so there is no need to find a location for a sub woofer. Sound bar integrates with the tv remote very well.

Sound is quite good however, it sounds just a tad boomy/boxy. Not as loud as the samsung, but the sound was clear and crisp. Sounds great, honestly expected less from this soundbar and it was actually really good.

Quality


Literally dolby atmos quality sound in a single piece of equipment.


To get surround sound quality sound out of one piece of equipment is incredible.


Music sounded overcompressed and a tad saturated.


There is no surround or separation noticeable, the ceiling effect of atmos is 0.

Price


Great value for the money-trust the quality of sony.


So, for your viewing and gaming needs, this is a darned good soundbar, especially for the price.


At $200 it might be a bit overpriced.


With this budget, it does bring out the enjoyment of the movie.

Competitiveness


1 to compare and will update if this one wins.


While the sound is “proper” compared to the tv and i’d argue it’s sufficient, if you’re buying it over a different product beca...  Read More
