Sony HT-X8500 2.1Ch Soundbar With Dolby Atmos And Built In Powerful Subwoofer, Simulated 7.1.2 Surround Sound, Slim And Elegant, 1 Year Warranty

This sound bar comes with the ARC HDMI port that perfectly connects with the ARC HDMI cable. The ARC HDMI comes along with this sound bar. The vertical sound is magic and quite powerful. Also, since it comes with inbuilt subwoofers making this a one piece sound system for your room. I use this for my bedroom tv and it works well in a smaller room. For its price and the fact I own a Sony 4K Smart TV, this sound-bar is worth it.

good but sound is not top quality for the claims made..looks ok

Very good value for money. TV sounds will never be the same again. Modes work and change the sound profile as expected. Like the Voice mode which makes dialogues easy to listen to. Only downside is that you the visual feedback (combination of LED lights) when a mode is selected is confusing. Instead you will have to rely on your ears to confirm a mode is activated. Otherwise, the product is amazing.

When you write the words "Powerful Subwoofer" in the product Title and Description, a trusting consumer would either assume this comes with one (subwoofer) or at least the built in Low frequency speaker "covers" the sub bass frequency. Unfortunately, neither is true. The Sound bar isn't powerful, does not include a separate Subwoofer not does it offer the built in frequency to compensate. It's average, mid sound levels. The controls, build quality and features (BT etc..) are fine though, hence the 3 stars

Love the sound out put. Good for an average sized living room. If your TV support eARC over HDMI and Dolby Atmos, then this Soundbar delivers a high quality surround sound effects. The vertical surround option is superb. Got this on a promotion from Amazon.

Best in this price range. Does amazing job for TV and movies, the virtual vertical surround is amazing. Pretty powerful in a small room (30 sq.m). Bass is good. The only set back is that in high volume the bass gets lost a bit. Can connect to an Alexa device. ARC and Dolby are there as well. Overall a great product by Sony and unmatched in that price range, especially discounted for White Friday. Giving it a 4 star to note that if you want a deeper bass, a subwoofer may be needed.

So after having this item for a week and putting it through the works, I have concluded that this speaker is over rated!!! It is not what I expected, it is loud but not clear, the sound is muffled no matter what settings you put it on, there is bass and quite a lot of it coming from an all in 1 soundbar, but I noticed there is no dedicated tweeter, but it is 2 way speaker on each side and 2 subs in the center. I have an HT-S100F and it sounds much better and it is 50% cheaper. Don't get me wrong it does try and do a good job at mimicking Atmos but it just doesn't sound right. Sorry Sony, you tried with this one, but unfortunately it doesn't work.

Some sound bars are overly complicated with lots of features that you never use. I wanted one that would sit under my 75" Hisense TV with no display and this is perfect. Great sound, I just leave it in 'Auto Sound' mode and my Galaxy Note10+ connects for Spotify playback

Good things: Sleek, does nit look cheap. Easy to connect and install. Bluetooth connectivity makes it your go to speaker at home which you can connect with your phone, iPad, computer, TV etc. Several sound modes. A good remote with lots of buttons for almost every function. It’s performance improves if connected to newer TVs supporting Dolby audio, Dolby Atmos etc. Ensure your TV or device connected to soundbar is able to transmit his highest Audio format to enjoy this sound bar sound. Bad: Sounds boxy. Bass too heavy with medium and extra bass. Treble is terrible and one does miss clarity of sound especially with dialogues at times. Music sounds awful on this soundbar. It is hard to imagine a 5.1 or Atmos sound with this his sound bar but certainly it attempts to provide a surround-ish sound rather than coming just from front. What could have been better: Mids and Treble. Clarity.
