The Sony HT-B600 BRAVIA Theatre Bar 6 is a 3.1.2-channel soundbar system with a wireless subwoofer designed for movie and TV sound. It combines three front speakers (including a center channel for clearer dialogue) with two up-firing drivers to reproduce height effects, and supports Dolby Atmos® and DTS:X® so sound can move above and around the room. Simple TV hookup via HDMI eARC and smartphone control through the Sony app make setup straightforward — the included wireless subwoofer adds deeper low end for action scenes and music.
Key Features
- True 3.1.2-channel configuration with dedicated center channel for clearer speech and on-screen dialogue.
- Support for Dolby Atmos® and DTS:X® to deliver object-based height effects using up-firing drivers.
- S-Force PRO Front Surround and Vertical Surround Engine for broadened, multi-dimensional sound from a single bar.
- Wireless subwoofer included for impactful low frequencies without extra cables across the room.
- Easy single-cable TV connection via HDMI eARC for high-quality audio passthrough and lip-sync accuracy.
- Simple setup and control from a smartphone with Sony’s BRAVIA/companion app — adjust sound modes and levels quickly.
