Compact and tidily finished,Wireless subwoofer offers extra convenience (and wallop),Far more dynamic and direct a listen than virtually every TV
Soundbar and subwoofer aren't on great terms,Tonality is skewed - with high frequencies in particular quite hard work,Doesn't make good on claims of Atmos-style surround sound
Despite being behind some of the most effective and convincing Dolby Atmos-aping soundbars around, Sony seems to have overplayed its hand somewhat where the HT-G700 is concerned.It's short of tonal unity, the soundbar and its subwoofer are rather estrange...

Big, weighty sound, Impressive Atmos effect, Solid and stylish,
Lack of crispness and clarity, No streaming functionality,
The Sony HT-G700 is a completely different proposition to the similarly-priced Sonos Beam. Whereas the Sonos is really a multi-room speaker shaped into a bar and given an HDMI socket, the Sony is a dedicated bit of home cinema kit. Which approach is right...
Atmos for a compact space, Vertical Surround Engine is clever, Tight, punchy bass, Enjoyable music performance, Suited to compact spaces,
Overcomplicated menu system, Claims of virtual surround sound is overstated, Squashed aspect to the sound at times,
If you don't have the space for a full surround sound system, the HT-G700 is a smart way of bringing Atmos to the home with a smaller footprint. It isn't the surround sound experience Sony suggests it is, but the Vertical Surround Engine works brilliantly...

Remarkable spatial sound,Great audio quality overall,No-effort setup,4K HDMI passthrough,Suitable for 43-inch TVs and up,
Not good with music, Not as dynamic as fancier soundbars, Not real surround and height,
The Sony HT-G700 delivers a cinematic experience that's hard to pull yourself away from, no matter the source. It's the best mid-price soundbar available right now, and is well-designed and thought-out, too.Reasons to buy+Remarkable spatial sound+Great au...
Lacks Wi-Fi connectivity, Not quite as immersive as true surround sound
Yes. There may be a better Dolby Atmos bar out there for the money, but by effectively simulating that sound, the Sony HT-G700 stays competitive with a more compact system.Editors' RecommendationsSony's HT-G700 could be the ultimate Dolby Atmos soundbar o...

Compact Atmos/DTS:X bar, Immersive AE for lesser signals, Bluetooth for TV and music
No dedicated height/surround drivers, Height/surround claims overstated
So this is an enjoyable, sound-widening bar and subwoofer pair for movies and TV, if not our first pick for music. The promise of vertical and surround effects are simply overstated.While we accept the possibilities of wall-bouncing surround created by se...
