The sound of the Soundbar is really great, I have decided consciously for this model, as my Sony Bravia LED eh only 2 HDMI ports which are dauerbelgt Sky box and PS4, I did not want to connect via HDMI. The variant of the optical audio cable was therefore first choice for me. For this reason I have decided to entrust the cheaper version instead H430 H450 to buy. Why pay more for an HDMI connection which I do not need? The sound modes offered cover for me everything necessary from (Voice, Music, Standard, Cinema, Sport). The sound of the soundbar and the subwoofer is truly outstanding, very rich sound. I recommend this soundbar bendenkenlos.
