Bang for buck.
Great little unit if your neighbours don’t mind the noise. It’s a little useless on lower volumes and feels like it was created by Chris Nolan, but it’s great once you crank it past 50%

At a glance
The Sony HTS400 is a straightforward 2.1 channel soundbar with a wireless subwoofer, built for people who want better TV sound, clearer dialogue and stronger bass without a complicated setup. It suits small to medium living rooms and everyday movie, sport and music use. Its biggest strengths are ease of use, compact size and solid bass performance. The main limitation is that it lacks the more immersive surround formats found on premium models.

Things to consider
It is a strong everyday sound upgrade, but it does not deliver the more expansive surround effects or advanced audio format support you would get from premium Dolby Atmos soundbars.
Tv compatibility score
9/10 - HDMI ARC and optical input make it easy to pair with most modern and many older TVs.
Movie night suitability
8/10 - strong bass, clearer dialogue and Dolby Digital make it a solid choice for regular movie viewing.
Music playback quality
7/10 - Bluetooth streaming and the wireless subwoofer make casual music listening enjoyable, though it is tuned more for TV use than hi-fi detail.
Room size suitability
Best for small to medium living rooms
Installation ease
9/10 - simple setup, included remote and straightforward TV connections make it easy for most households to install.
Key benefits
- 330W Total Output: Delivers a noticeable step up from built-in TV speakers for fuller room-filling sound.
- 2.1 Channel Audio: Gives you clearer vocal focus plus dedicated bass support for more balanced everyday listening.
- Wireless Subwoofer: Adds deeper low-end impact without needing a cable run from the bar to the subwoofer.
- X-Balanced Speaker Unit: Helps improve speech clarity and keeps dialogue easier to follow in movies, news and shows.
- Bluetooth 5.0: Lets you stream music wirelessly from a compatible phone or tablet with a stable modern connection.
- Hdmi arc: Simplifies connection to compatible TVs and can reduce cable clutter in your entertainment setup.
- Dolby Digital Support: Enhances movie and TV audio with more cinematic sound than standard TV speakers alone.
- Compact Soundbar Design: Fits neatly under most TVs and suits smaller entertainment units and lounge spaces.
Q: Can I use my TV remote with the HTS400 soundbar?
A: Yes. With a compatible TV over HDMI ARC, the Sony HTS400 can usually follow TV power and volume from the TV remote. If you connect by optical instead, you will generally use the soundbar remote for audio control.
Q: Does this soundbar give true surround sound for movies?
A: No. Sony HTS400 is a 2.1 channel soundbar with a wireless subwoofer, so it does not provide true rear-speaker surround. Dolby Digital and S-Force PRO can widen the presentation, but they do not replace separate surround channels.
Q: What TV connections work with the HTS400 soundbar?
A: Sony HTS400 connects to a TV by HDMI ARC or optical input. HDMI ARC is the simpler option when the TV supports it, because audio and some control can run through one cable, while optical carries sound only.
Q: Where should the wireless subwoofer sit in a small lounge?
A: The wireless subwoofer is easier to place than a wired one because it does not need a cable back to the soundbar. It still needs its own power point, and it works best at the front of the room rather than behind the seating area.
Q: Can it stream music from my phone without the TV on?
A: Yes. The Sony HTS400 can play music directly from a phone or tablet over Bluetooth 5.0, so the TV does not need to be on. It is designed for Bluetooth streaming, not app-based Wi-Fi music services or multi-room audio.
Q: Does the Sony HTS400 need an app to set up?
A: No. Sony HTS400 is designed for simple setup using HDMI ARC or optical and the included remote. Bluetooth is there for music playback from a phone or tablet, but soundbar setup and daily control do not depend on a dedicated app.
