I switched to the Sony soundbar added the bigger sub and smaller back channel loudspeakers and have been very happy. I was using a 2 channel with single subwoofer setup run through a Roksan analog preamp. I took the analog audio output from the television. It sounded good. I then got a bigger, newer TV with very limited analog outputs and thought I should do something. The sound, particularly dialog, is much better with the Sony soundbar, but the setup and convenience are far, far superior to the previous 2 channel movie playback. It's all wireless with automatic room optimization and I can use a single remote for all television/streaming viewing. Unless you're trying for some sort of statement multi-channel viewing experience I would highly recommend the Sony soundbar.
I have not used the Sony for music playback.
The model I got was the HT-A7000. It's being discounted right now. Could be a new model coming?
