Good sound and uncomplicated operation

Vorneweg that Sony Soundbar evaluates the sound of a flat screen TV on significantly.
The package includes: the Soundbar with detachable power cord (115 cm long), a subwoofer with connecting cable (100 cm long), an optical digital cable for connection to your TV (95 cm long) and a remote control and a multilingual user manual.
In addition to the included optical digital cable and coaxial cables and analog cables can be used.

Connecting the soundbar to the TV succeeds without problems and is also technically less experienced persons easily accomplished. Also thanks to the precise instructions in the manual. Read short and the terminal was completed in 5 minutes. Only once, as when you first turn despite correct connection, no sound could be heard, I had once read-intensive and when I moved louder the volume keys on the remote control in the direction, and the sound from the speakers of the sound bar came.
Visually, the Sony Soundbar are rather inconspicuous. It appears their hexagonal shape because like an oversized anthracite pencil without top, just 94 cm long and with a circumference of 24 cm. Weight 1.7 kg. The Speaker often typical recesses are feeling also emphasize, but not be seen. The subwoofer is black and has dimensions of WxHxD 16,5x24x30 cm and a weight of about 2.7 kg.

The Soundbar, etc. supplied with mounted feet to sit on a rack. The feet can be disassembled for easy rolling installation (for hexagon design readily feasible) or for wall mounting (screws not included). With us, the Soundbar is about at head height in a sitting position on a stable glass shelf, the Tiefsttöner including on a shelf about 10 cm above the ground.
It is controlled via the supplied remote control in a handy format of LxWxH 10x4x1 cm. It is handy that the button battery is included. In addition to power on / off can be controlled: surround effect On / Off, Mute, volume and bass and treble separately. A Sony TV can be controlled with power on / off, volume and program.

The Soundbar has a Bluetooth function (compatible A2DP Bluetooth profile), can be connected to the example smart phones and can be used stably with us. For furthermore possible coupling with NFC technology in which the connect is made automatically by touching the Soundbar with the NFC-compatible smartphone, the compatible device but is missing me.

The pure technical data tearing a loosely speaking not just from the stool. In operation, however, the system can measure the amplifier output power of 7W + 7W to convince the sound. Both voice and music programs in the sound compared to the TV sound is significantly upgraded. One effect of charged surround sound like a 5.1 system can not be expected from this 2.1 Soundbar with separate Tiefsttöner, however, the sound, clear bass assisted by Tiefsttöner, basically clear up in higher volume regions and audible space filling when the Surround function is switched on. That also ups and downs can be regulated separately, also allows for finer tuning.

All in all, the Sony Soundbar convinced me with uncomplicated commissioning and operation and powerful sound, which clearly stands out from a pure TV sound.
