Pros and cons

According to our soundbar expert

Thanks to the subwoofer's deep bass, you can listen to a room-filling sound.
The soundbar has both an HDMI and an optical connector to connect the bar to the TV.
When you connect the soundbar with an HDMI cable, you can control it with your TV remote.
You can't connect the speaker to your television via Bluetooth.

Description

With the Sony HT-CT290, you'll be able to enjoy powerful TV audio in your living room or bedroom. This 2.1-channel soundbar has an output capacity of 300 watts and when combined with the subwoofer, it'll produce room-filling sound with a deep bass. The virtual surround technology produces wide audio dispersion, which will give your movie soundtrack an extra-spacious feel. If you prefer listening to music, simply use Bluetooth to connect a smartphone to the soundbar, allowing you to stream songs to the speaker wirelessly.

Review is 8,0 out of 10.

Nice product, but I'm going for a more expensive model.

Easy installation
Beautiful design
Wireless Subwoofer
Sounds very shrill

Nice product, easy to hang and install, but unfortunately disappointing sound.

The bass is too quiet, it is only there when you turn it up loud, but then the soundbar itself sounds very shrill. The different modes (voice/music/movie/..) offer no solution for this.

A good upgrade compared to TV speakers, but for room-filling sound with deep bass you still need a more expensive product.

Wireless Subwoofer
No aux connection

Very nice soundbar to use. The operation feels natural, the illuminated letters quickly make it clear which mode the soundbar is in.

Connecting is easy, the wireless subwoofer makes for easy placement. I've had the subwoofer next to the couch, but I personally think it sounds better when the subwoofer is closer to the soundbar.

Before this I had the more expensive LG SJ4, I immediately brought it back to the store because the sound was really worthless compared to this Sony CT290. In addition, the Sony subwoofer also seems to have a better range.

The sound is very clear, all tones come out well. The subwoofer connects without delay, so that all "kicks" come out well and tight. Voices are very well intelligible without high volume, unlike the LG SJ4, for example.

The different equalizer modes are a nice addition. Music and Cinema live up to their name and really add to the experience.

Too bad it doesn't have a 3.5mm jack connection. This forced me to purchase a coax to optical adapter. This of course improves the quality.

Highly recommended! I am considering buying a second one for a different room. Unfortunately no multiroom support, but in my situation I do not intend to play the same audio in all rooms.
