I set it up thru ARC to my new Sony XBR-55X850, thinking the package would work great together. It did for one day, then the soundbar would not give any sound the next day. I spent several hours online with Sony support and called and spoke with a live person 3 times. To no avail, they would just basically read the same thing as what was on Sony e support. I finally called BestBuy and they said to return it because it could of been a bad batch! After reading all the reviews, at least I am not alone, but $500 (using a $200 deal) is too much for something that doesn't work properly. I am majorly disappointed, because it did sound good (not as loud as I would expect in TV mode), but for Bluetooth you could really hear the 400 watts. I will be returning this tomorrow and I am looking for something compatible and better than this sound bar.

Very Dissapointing

I love Sony! I've always purchased their products so I though the soundbar would be a sound purchase. I've never been so wrong. This is quite possibly the worst sounding soundbar on the market. Bestbuy demonstrates it with Bluetooth Audio and it sounds great, but once you try to broadcast TV audio, it's anything but loud. I had to crank it to the max to even hear the TV, 80 out of 100. Unacceptable! Needless to say I took it back and was told by the BB Associate that all soundbars sounded the same. Absolute BS. Bought Bose and have enjoyed EVERYTHING ABOUT IT! Don't buy this system, you'll regret it!

Sony's stock answers!

It cracks me up that Sony's support does not even read your comments and provides it stock answers. They said they were sorry that your headphones did not meet your expectations when you purchased a soundbar!
