Pros and cons

According to our soundbar expert

With this bundle, you hear sound all around you and enjoy a more powerful bass.
You don't have any extra cables in the living room, because you connect the speakers wirelessly.
Thanks to the 4 upward-facing speakers, you also hear sound from above and experience your movies more realistically.
Because you connect the rear speakers to the power grid, you can't place them wherever you want.

Description

You can enjoy spatial audio and a strong bass with the Sony BRAVIA Theatre Bar 8 Home Cinema Set. You place the speakers behind you, so you also hear the sound from the back. This way, you immerse yourself in the sound of the movie. You can wirelessly connect them to the soundbar, so you don't have any extra cables in your room. With the subwoofer, you hear a strong bass. As a result, your movies and series have more depth. This way, the explosion in the movie sounds more realistic. Thanks to True Dolby Atmos and the 2 upwards facing speakers, the sound is reflected to where you're sitting via the ceiling. You also hear the sound from above you. This adds an extra dimension, which makes the movie sound even more realistic.

Great soundbar, but could be better

Design
General noise
Connection with Sony TV
Dolby atmosphere

I was able to test this soundbar together with the new Sony Bravia TV. When I unpacked this soundbar, I immediately thought the design was beautiful. Fits perfectly under this TV. But when setting it up I immediately encountered a problem. This is not possible without instructions. Perhaps this is why my test in the first week was disappointing. At first I didn't like the sound at all. I corrected it several times but it did not improve. Only after resetting did I get completely different settings and, for example, I was also asked whether I wanted to connect the soundbar to the TV so that TV sound also becomes part of the sound. I think the sound is good on normal mode. But I find the surround effect a bit disappointing. You hear the sound becoming broad, but not as in pictures you have to believe that because of the Spacial sound it also comes from "behind". This is really not the case. This also applies to Atmos sound. In the best tests via YouTube you can hear it, but in many films I barely hear it. Anyway, the sound in general is fine.
I think the bass from the soundbar is really good. A subwoofer is not necessary. The remote control is a bit poor. The disadvantage is that with bass you cannot see which setting it is in, not even via the Bravia app. This app is useful, but could be better. Connecting the app to the soundbar sometimes takes quite a while! The combination TV and soundbar is really a positive thing, it makes it one whole! This soundbar has almost all surround types, this is done automatically. And this works great! Still, I think if you place background speakers the sound will be much better. But I expected it without these boxes and this is a shame. In short, a nice soundbar, but in combination with a new Sony Bravia TV!
