Description

A wireless subwoofer means fewer cables

The subwoofer links to the soundbar wirelessly, so it can stand next to the sofa or in a corner where it stays out of the way. Low frequencies come from a dedicated speaker, giving explosions and music more weight. The 900 mm wide soundbar is only 64 mm tall, so it usually sits in front of the TV without blocking the screen.

Who this soundbar is for

The HT-S400 suits a living room where the TV sound lacks bass and a separate subwoofer is wanted for films, without running cables across the room. Over Bluetooth the same system also plays music from your phone.
