I received this sound bar and sub-woofer last Feb as a gift and I was originally very please. But as time went on the item began to fail like all other Sony products I have purchased in recent years. The sound quality was great for the price and was wonderful for movies and playing music through and the sub made a huge and wonderful impact. In the recent months the bluetooth sub has been cutting out while watching movies and completely shutting off (Power still on) while streaming music through via bluetooth, AUX adapter, provided cable, and HDMI cable. As soon as I try to adjust the volume of the sub woofer it cuts out and provides no bass from the sub. I have had no help with Sony customer service as their only suggestion was to not turn up the speaker too loud. Kind of defeats the purpose to me. I have slowly began throwing away my Sony products and replacing them with different manufacturers because the last 4 out of 4 Sony products I have purchased have failed within 6-12 months. Very disappointed, I do NOT recommend anything Sony to anyone....unless you want to throw away your money.

I'm happy with this purchase, and gave it 5 stars for a sound bar in this price range. A high-end system like Bose may sound better, but i didn't feel like spending a couple grand on this particular setup. Sounds amazing. Have had only one other sound bar which was a Samsung (roughly the same price as the Sony) and the sony blew it out of the water in sound quality/clarity/bass. A perfect compliment for your favorite concert/music channel and movies. Have had no negative issues with this product in 1.5 years of use.

Completely Satisfied!

I have had this sound bar for almost 1 month. I have been completely satisfied! My wife gave me a sound bar for Father's Day this year to accompany our new Sony Bravia. It was a Philips sound bar with wireless sub. I was impressed with the sound, but even when hooked up through HDMI ARC, the picture was never in sync with the audio and the audio sync adjustment on the sound bar could not correct it. in addition, the sub would intermittently cut out during movie or tv playback. I took it back after a week and bought the Sony. OH MY WORD AT THE DIFFERENCE! if I want, the bass will lift me up off the floor! Voices are clear, audio is in sync always, sub is constant, setup is easy & choices are abundant. I also love that there is a nighttime setting that cuts the bass down and brings out the voices clearly so as not to disturb others. Bass is still full and completes the sound field, but is not punchy. I have been very impressed with this purchase and would highly recommend this sound bar to anyone. Sony has a reputation for quality, and this seems to match the quality of the other Sony products that I own.

Better than the BOSE Sound Bar I had.

I've had two BOSE Sound bars and so far this one has outlasted both which died within a month. . Love the wireless Subwoofer. Right now the Soundbar is in front of the TV and works great in this position. The one and only problem I have ( why only 3 stars) is when I'm turning down the volume by holding the button down or clicking fast on it the Soundbar will just turn off. Not Good!

Comments about HT-CT260H Soundbar and Wireless Subwoofer Power Protection Bundle

Pros: Crisp sound, great bass, easy to install. what else can I say but a good value. Buydig was on the money with shipping and everything was as advertized. Went great with my new Samsung 46' 6350 using the optical toslink interface! Cons: None Other thoughts: Easy wall mount and for people that need a clear audiosans noise this unit is great.

Really sounds good. That said, HDMI connection takes a while to activate sound when TV starts up (Sony KDL52EX700). Communication is lost to subwoofer module at varying and intermittent intervals. Remote is woefully underpowered for even a short throw.

I bought this soundbar to synch up with my new TV and Blu-ray players - all from Sony. On top of that got an amazing deal from Target. The wireless subwoofer is neat and the right size. The sound is very good and there is a night mode which helps a lot. Blutooth is seamless with my iPhone. The only problem I have is regarding the placement. Since my TV sits on a TV stand, if I place the soundbar in front, it covers the TV base. It does not look good at all. The racks on the TV stand does not have a slot wide enough for the bar. I have the bar placed on the back of TV. Works for me and sound is still good. Just wish I could place it just below the TV set.

Great Sound

The system works great, and adds fantastic sound to the already excellent picture on my LED TV. The Bluetooth connectivity allows me to stream music from my iPhone through the system with enough volume to hear it throughout the house.
