No experience with it, but it's basically a very high mid-tier soundbar at a budget soundbar price point. Good deal.

Worth noting the premium atmos rears that are truely wireless you can get for right now around $300 ymmv https://www.bestbuy.com/product/s...ku/6502033

Otherwise the cheaper rears that are still excellent SA-RS3S are often open box or on eBay for $150-$175 just not atm

Best Buy open box deals are always a crap shoot. I bought this exact model open box excellent condition, opened it up at home, and noticed that the packaging for the soundbar itself had been tampered with but the remote control and power cord were still sealed. Suspicious but I still hooked it up and yup, it was dead. Luckily I had no issues returning it. I ordered it from somewhere else and that one worked out of the box.

Sound wise, I'm not an audiophile so I can't make educated commentary other than it sounds pretty good. I have a TCL soundbar on my other TV and you can at least tell the Sony is higher quality.

RSL speedwoofer 10e is what I have. Pop of the small cover near the rear ports, and the sub and rear wired ports are there. You don't need the matching Sony wireless stuff
