  • Great purchase
Style: Soundbar
Great sound, great purchase.

  • The Sony HT-X8500 is a great choice for a small room.
Style: Soundbar
I bought a Sony OLED TV and a Yamaha 4K Dolby Atmos receiver. Surround sound worked with the cable box but wouldn't work when streaming. I could not get the TV to pair with the receiver while streaming. My son gave me a Toshiba sound bar and I couldn't get that sound bar to pair with the TV either. I couldn't stand the poor sound quality of the TV so I decided to get a Sony sound bar and hope that I could get the TV to pair with the sound bar. I have a small fortune invested in the Yamaha receiver and Bose speakers. I was looking for a sound bar that gave me value for my money so I selected the Sony HT-X8500. I read some good reviews on Amazon. I have a small TV room and the sound quality is excellent. It was very easy to install. In ten minutes I had it hooked up and paired to the TV. The sound bar has the sub woofers built in so there is no need to find a location for a sub woofer. The remote is great. I like the news and voice function when I'm not using the cinema function. The only thing that I didn't like was that it takes about 15 seconds for the speaker to switch from streaming to cable. If you want a sound bar for a small room you can't go wrong with the Sony HT- X85OO. ... show more

  • Not surround sound, but better than TV, so 👍
Style: Soundbar
Our both our surround sound theater and our TV have "aged out", the equipment is fine, but the software cannot upgrade any longer, as the chips are too old and no longer supported by our streaming subscriptions. Therefore neither can work as our streaming source with our TV 😫. Since the industry is "stuck" with the chip shortages yada yada, it is not a good time to be replacing the entire system, so we need to limp along until the industry gets their act together. A new Roku box solved the streaming issue, but it won't send the sound through to the theater - again, age-compatibility issues - so, we needed something better for sound than the TV sound, which is pretty awful. The "promises" for sound bars is that they produce Surround Sound, without the wires and speakers everywhere, so this seemed a reasonable priced option to test that claim, and to get us by until the new system we plan to purchase is available. This came as expected, easy to install, and works. On installation, it claims that you only need the HDMI it comes with if you have an ARC HDMI on the TV. Ours did not work that way, possibly because the Roku is a separate box. If you have built in streaming on the TV, it may work, but with our configuration, even with the ARC port on the TV, it was necessary to install both the HDMI and the optic cable from the TV and HDMI from the Roku box to the speaker to get the streaming sound to the speaker. Since this only came with 1 HDMI cable, we needed to obtain an additional HDMI and an optic cable to make this work, but this configuration was shown in the instructions, and once we acquired the additional cables, it works as promised. The sound is better than the TV sound, specifically, with the TV, speech was difficult to hear and understand speech at low levels, but when we turned the sound up enough to hear the speech, the background sound was unbearably loud. The sound bar fixed that. We were able to tinker with the sound settings and now we can hear the speech without going deaf from the background sound, Yea! Is it surround sound? No. Not even close. If you are sitting VERY close, it tries, but in a normal living room setting, if you are used to 5-1 or 7-1/2 surround sound, you will be disappointed if you expect the same from this sound bar. I did not really expect that it would, so I am happy with this. It is better than the TV sound, and provides additional control for custom sound settings that the TV alone did not have, so it is a step up, which is a realistic expectation. I would buy this again. ... show more

  • Great soundbar, great performance
Style: Soundbar
Very happy with this soundbar -- I'm not an audiophile but I do appreciate the performance in our room. It helps to hear the dialog in movies (sometimes a challenge), and it enhances the sports experience when watching an event. This Sony sound bar is connected to a Sony Bravia 3 TV. Setup was especially easy -- we used the HDMI cable provided in the speaker box, and supplemented it with a fiber optic cable as well. I'm not sure whether that's a bit redundant, but it certainly doesn't hurt. I had this mounted (directly beneath the TV on an articulating wall mount) and connected and performing within an hour working alone. Using the attachment to the TV means if we move the TV based upon my viewing position in the room, the speaker moves with it and delivers the sound to our seating position. No need to pay for installation. I would definitely buy again. ... show more

  • Incredible Sound in a Sleek Design!
Style: Soundbar
The Sony HTX8500 soundbar has completely transformed my home theater experience. The Dolby Atmos and DTS:X compatibility deliver an immersive, cinematic sound that fills the room. The built-in subwoofer eliminates the need for additional speakers, yet it still provides deep, punchy bass that truly enhances movies, music, and games. Setup was a breeze, and the compact design fits perfectly under my TV without taking up much space. Despite its size, it packs a powerful punch. Whether it’s action-packed scenes or subtle dialogue, the sound quality is crystal clear and balanced. If you’re looking for an affordable, all-in-one soundbar solution with premium features, the Sony HTX8500 is a fantastic choice. Highly recommend! ... show more
