Sony HT-S400 specifications and features
Sony’s new soundbar is not too large, and has a 2.1-channel configuration with a separate wireless subwoofer. The speaker system is made up of a bar speaker with two drivers rated at 200W in total, along with a 130W subwoofer. The subwoofer weighs 7.3kg and only supports wireless connectivity with the 2.4kg bar speaker, with the latter serving as a master device and handling connectivity with external devices. Each component must be connected to a separate power socket.
Connectivity options on the Sony HT-S400 include HDMI ARC, Optical (Toslink), and Bluetooth 5 with support for the SBC Bluetooth codec. There is an included remote which can be used to control the HT-S400, including adjusting the volume of the system or the subwoofer separately. HDMI CEC is supported, so the HT-S400 can be controlled by a compatible source device such as a TV or home theatre receiver.
It features support for only the Dolby Audio format — no advanced audio formats are supported on the Sony HT-S400. The soundbar from Sony is available in just a single Black colour option, and has touch buttons at the top for basic controls including power, volume, and source selection. When used with a compatible Sony Bravia television, the soundbar can be connected wirelessly, without disabling separate Bluetooth connectivity.
