Upgrade with Sony home theatre speakers and TVs and take home entertainment to a whole new level. You’ll be impressed with how immersed you become in the newest movies, that you’ll want to rediscover all of your old favourites again. In this contest we are giving away the sleek Sony HT-S400 sound bar with subwoofer. Slide it under your television for instant sensational audio.

How easy is it to add a sound bar to your home theatre

There are many reasons why people choose a sound bar but often it’s to improve on the audio emanating from just the television and not wanting the expense of a full home audio system or the challenges of setting up a receiver and multiple speakers. Sound bars, especially the one we are giving away in this contest are quick and easy to connect. Read the review article done by Andy Baryer to learn just how simple the Sony HT-S400 is to connect and use. Put the sound bar under your TV and the subwoofer in a nearby corner, then connect the sound bar using either one HDMI or one optical cable; or, you can connect wirelessly via Bluetooth. The sound bar and subwoofer automatically connect to each other which is a bonus.

It’s even easier to connect if you have a new Sony TV, which will simply and wirelessly connect and stream its audio to the sound bar. I think the ultimate experience would be to pair this sound bar with the new Sony BRAVIA XR X95K 75″ 4K UHD Mini-LED TV that we just reviewed on the blog. Did you know it’s Sony’s first Mini-LED TV (and the first we reviewed on the blog!)? And savvy blog readers may be wondering what I plan to do with that Mini-LED sample that was just reviewed. Here is a pretty strong hint: the sound bar we are giving away in this contest is the sample that was reviewed on the blog.

You’ll be eager to watch your old favourites all over again

Great audio brings the films we love to life. Many of us are getting less than the best audio from the devices on which we choose to watch content. Streaming services are awesome and we can watch almost anything we want anywhere. However, in many cases, we are watching on our phones or tablets, and listening to the audio with simple earbuds or headphones. For example, I binge watched the first set of episodes of the new “Stranger Things” on Netflix on my smart phone and can’t wait to see the season ending episodes which just came out this month. I sure wish I had a better TV with a great sound bar like this contest’s prize to watch the whole season from start to finish on: in my opinion this is the best season yet!

Rediscover the shows you love. There are some very good reasons to rewatch the best of the content you’ve seen. I know many people who routinely watch earlier versions of shows before going to the theatre to see a sequel. There was likely a surge of viewers to the original Jurassic Park just as the new movie arrived recently. With a new Sony sound bar, you will be able to get more enjoyment and feel more immersed as you rewatch older movies, or shows that you streamed on your phone but can’t wait to see again.

  1. The best reason to get a sound bar for my home is because the sound of my tv speakers is not very good….finding that as tv’s become thinner and thinner, sound quality suffers. One thing that I like about the Sony HT-S400 is the different and easy ways it can connect to your tv!

  2. Question:
    What you think is the best reason to get a sound bar for your home? My husband and I just recently visited our son and he had a sound bar and we noticed the difference it made in our tv audio experience. When we returned home my husband said, “maybe we sound look into getting a sound bar” and I agreed. Then I saw this contest and thought maybe I can win it for him!
    One thing you like about the Sony HT-S400 we are giving away? I’m not great with electronics, so I like that the Sony HT-S400 is “simple remote control for effortless operation”. The other comments about the Sony HT-S400 sound wonderful, but to technical for me, my husband takes care of all of the electronics in our home.

  3. Sound is becoming an ever more important part of my tv and movie experience. It’s becoming a big part of how the stories are told as well – Wandavision had sound clues to the plot, Ms Marvel has a killer soundtrack. To live the best viewing life, you need good sound and that comes from a soundbar.

  4. i think a soundbar would be the simplest way to upgrade the sound from my TVs speakers. The Bluetooth connectivity is nice too.

  5. Our current TV has a great picture but really gotta crank up the sound to get decent sound. Want to try a soundbar to get great sound and better movie experience.

  6. The best reason to get a sound bar is to enhance the quality of the audio of my tv. I like that the Sony HT-S400 has wireless connectivity.

  7. The sound bar would improve the audio experience watching TV or streaming music. I love that you just can slide it under your existing TV – great space saver!

  8. I’m obsessed with movie soundtracks (especially Hans Zimmer!) so the best reason to get a soundbar for me is to hear the incredible music as it’s supposed to be heard and become truly immersed in the effect the soundtrack adds. I love that this connects wirelessly through bluetooth, and that the subwoofer connects automatically. I have a dog who loves to chew wires, so not having them would be ideal!

  9. the best reason is to get theatre quality sound at home, more needed than ever now that we stream everything! I love that this soundbar has wireless bluetooth capabilities so we can use it for parties too!

  11. The best reason to get a sound bar is the increased fidelity that you will get. It is also the best way to go if you are on a limited budget and or lack of space. I kind that this Sony sound bar connects wirelessly via Bluetooth to compatible devices.

  12. The best thing about a soundbar is that TV manufacturers must just expect that you will get one. The factory speakers are always inadequate. I like the bluetooth feature.

  13. This would offer much better sound than my built in TFV speakers and I love that it has a subwoofer ands can connect wirelessly.

  14. A few years ago a friend of mine had a sound bar. I used to think they were useless until i saw it in action. Ever since I have wanted a sound bar but had to spend my money on more practical things. NOw I am moving and this would be the perfect addition to my new home!

  15. For me, a soundbar would be the simplest way to upgrade my sound from my TV’s in built speakers. The Bluetooth connectivity would be great too.

  16. Besides the ease of connectivity, I need to feel the jets flying over when I watch the new Top Gun movie.

  17. For better television enjoyment! Better sound means being more in depth with what you’re watching

  18. I think the best reason for getting a soundbar is the easy setup. I like the esthetics of the Sony HT-S400. It looks awesome.

  19. I have a spare room with just a T.V, so having a sound bar would make it sound so much better.

  20. The best reason to get a sound bar for my home is to do away with all the wiring that comes with having an old home theater system. It’s much simpler and cleaner with a soundbar+subwoofer. The one thing you like about the Sony HT-S400 is the ability to connect via Bluetooth.

  21. To enhance the audio during movies and sports, and I like how the sound bar and subwoofer connect to one another authomatically.

  22. This one will replace my old Bose sound system it just doesn’t sound like it use to and reading the facts about the Sony HT S400 sound bar it looks like I’ll be listening to the best sound system of today.

  23. A sundar is the best. But make a good choice, no two sound bars are alike. This one seems great!!!

  24. When I’m binging a show on the Netflix or watching really good movie, I want the best sound quality. It brings a whole difference experience to your entertainment system. I would love nothing more than a excellent sound bar in my living room.
