Sound is great. I have it paired with a Sony Bravia X90L TV plus their wireless subwoofer (SA-SW5) and the wireless rear speakers (SA-RS5) which takes everything to another level. I like the acoustic center sync option which lets you use your TV as an additional cener chanel. I got an open box version which looked brand new. I upgraded from the HT-S2000 and i’m not disappointed. It all works flawlessly, is controllable from the TV menus, sounds great, and looks great. Unless you need something bigger for your space (mine is all in my bedroom) then I don’t think you’ll be disappointed. I gave it 4 stars because sometimes after startup it takes a while to connect to the TV. I’ve found it I turn it on first THEN the TV, it’s much less tempramental.

I got this soundbar to pair with a Sony X85K TV. Easy to set up with the eArc HDMI to the TV. The sound is crisp and clear. The setup is in a small bedroom and it has more than enough sound to fill the room. It does lack low-end bass, but an added subwoofer would help complete the setup. This was purchased with a really good deal when buying a TV and soundbar together. This soundbar had a total of $300 off.

I have been skeptical of Sony sound over the years but have been blow away by my a7000, I can’t say enough about it. So i needed another smaller bar for my office but not as big as the a5000 or a7000, not breaking the bank, and with atmos. Went on a limb with the a3000 and I can say I’m also impressed. By itself it does give the allusion of a wide sound field to make you feel there is more speakers than the bar. The bass is just the right amount for a small room. And have the ability to add on a choice of surrounds and subs. I pair them with the SR5 atmos surrounds which gave the 360 dome effect which can be amazing ( depending on the content). I am truly impressed by Sony with their line of atmos soundbars, I went through a jbl 9.1, Vizio elevate, and my older Vizio 5.1.4 bar before settling with Sony. My only con is it can be expensive. I can say if you have the room go for the A5000 ( 5.1.2 by itself rather than 3.1)
