Works very well with smart Tv and arc return feature. The sound bar fits comfortly underneath my 50 inch hisense qled tv and between the tv stands. Sound is amazing with good base for a 400 watt system and goes well with next gen gaming. The only small issue is the surround speaker wire is a little short only 6 metres so will only work in a small lounge. Other than that it is defintley a good buy.

Watching live music concerts is an eargasm. Loving this. You can tell the difference in sound where some films/series are in stereo (2.1). Otherwise, mainly use this for music.

Clear sound, excellent quality

I recently purchased the Sony HT-S20R 5.1ch Soundbar System, and Iβm really impressed with the overall sound quality. The 400W output provides clear, immersive surround sound that makes both movies and music much more enjoyable. The bass is deep, and the dialogue clarity is excellent, especially during movie scenes. Setup was quite easy, with clear instructions and minimal hassle connecting the system to my TV. The design is sleek and fits well in my living room without taking up too much space. I also love the Bluetooth functionality, which allows me to stream music from my phone effortlessly. However, I wish there were more options for fine-tuning the sound settings. That said, at this price point, it's a fantastic value for anyone looking to enhance their home entertainment experience. Overall, Iβm satisfied with this purchase and would recommend it to anyone seeking a solid, budget-friendly home cinema system.

Real surround sound and cinematic experience, the bass is also good. If you do not mind managing the wiring then this Sony system is perfect for the price point. Point to note: the rear speakers must be mounted or placed at height of approx ear level behind the seating area and distance and decibels adjusted to suit on the subwoofer using the remote. I initially mounted them too high in my living room and the sound was very faint but after moving them lower there was vast improvement in the sound.

I've been using the soundbar for almost a month and the sound is a huge improvement over the TV speakers.the setup was literally plug and play so setupwas a breeze. The surround sound is definitely worth it for the price. The length of the wired surround speakers was long enough for my medium size space so a larger area might need some out of the box thinking to make it work. I would definitely recommend π
