Sony Black Sound Bar Home Theater System With Wireless Subwoofer - HTCT260

Bring your movies to life with the Sony HTCT260 soundbar. No matter how much you paid for your TV, if you have a modern flat panel HDTV, then you are probably not getting very good sound out of it. Despite incredible advances in picture and sound quality, good speakers still take up a lot of room, and there just is not room for very large speakers in a super thin HDTV.

You can get amazing sound out of a soundbar like the HTCT260, so you do not have to go through the hassle and expense of buying and installing a full surround-sound home theater audio system. The 2.1 channel stereo sound that comes from this beautiful speaker bar is designed to replicate advanced surround systems. Although the audio is not quite the same, the difference is so subtle that it is almost unnoticeable.

To produce really big sound, a larger subwoofer is included in the box. The subwoofer is what will actually make the low-pitch sounds from explosions in movies or bass parts in rock music sound great. The combination of the two speakers, when positioned well in a room, will deliver incredible sound quality.

The sound quality from these speakers is so good that you will want to use them for more than just movies. That is why Sony put a Bluetooth receiver in the main speaker. You can play music or any other audio wirelessly from your phone, tablet, computer, or other Bluetooth-enabled device. The HTCT260 really is a high-quality sound system packed into one compact little bar, and you will love the sound that you get from it.

  • 2.1 Channel; 300W Soundbar
    Bring your TV experience to life with exceptional audio marked by rich, natural sound with incredible clarity and definition in a compact, stylish design

    Delivers heart-pounding sound without having to run wires around your home

  • S-Force® PRO FRONT SURROUND

      • Home Theater
      • Larger Rooms

      I've been doing a lot of research on various sound-bar systems because, frankly, the sound quality of my Plasma TV's speakers just didn't cut it (especially if you have other external sound in the room like the A/C going on) and also because I didn't feel it is necessary to invest the time and money to get a full 5.1 or 7.1 surround system installed.

      I am so glad I ended up going with the Sony HTCT260 system for a number of reasons...price, extremely easy to set up, amazing and clear audio quality, bluetooth integration with other devices, wireless subwoofer, etc.

          If you don't have an 'optical output' on your tv, you will need to buy the rc cables. They are not included. Easy set up and delivered everything the salesman said it would. HIGHLY recommend to anyone looking for an affordable option to Bose.

          Service and delivery comments:

          The 'live chat' salesman was very helpful, informatice and applied my customer appreciation discount without hesitation. I received my soundbar within a week with the free shipping. The quality was everthing the salesman said it would be and more. We are very happy with our purchase and experience through ABT website and will be using it again! AND referring to others!

                Product was easy to set up. Bass response is user selectable to allow custom sound. The wireless remote bass unit adds lots of flexibility in locating the unit is an unobtrusive location. Main unit blends well beneath my Samsung 52-inch LCD-TV. Best was that I can control the unit with my Time Warner romote....what a plus.
