There's no separate subwoofer and no ability to add one later
Which means it can sometimes sound thinner than system with a true sub. Occasionally dialogue can also sound less intelligible than other sound bars at this price
Sony's HT-XT1 is an attractive, well-made and feature-packed affair with a crisp, attacking sound, but sonic flaws deny it a place at the soundbase top table. Next, check out our pick of the Best Surround Sound Systems...
Great build and design, Well featured, Large soundfield, Punchy, exciting sound
Hard edge to treble, Midrange could be better integrated

Clear, present sound, Loaded with features and inputs, Elegant design, Intuitive interface, Great price

Sony's HT-XT1 sound stand is packed with features, looks sleek, and sounds great, making it a no-brainer upgrade over your TV's built-in speakers....
The Sony HT-XT1 offers 3 HDMI inputs and 1 output which is highly unusual in this price range. Its incorporation of Bluetooth Near Field Connectivity (NFC) simplifies the bluetooth pairing process. The XT1 also displays good mid-range and handles higher
The XT1 could make do with a couple of analog audio inputs. The inclusion of a subwoofer output for those of us who like a little more bass would have been appreciated. Speaking of bass, the HT-XT1 could use a little more punch,
The Sony HT-XT1 is a well-rounded speaker. It looks great, has good clarity and has just enough bass to enliven most movies and music. The XT1 also gives you a nice variety of connectivity options highlighted by its 3 HDMI inputs. There are other sound ba...

L'écran en façade, Le Bluetooth et le NFC, La connectique filaire complète, Le prix plutôt attractif
