At a price of $599.99 it sits up there with some of the more pricier soundbars but does at least include a wireless subwoofer. Its 3.1CH system sounds good and its 7.1.2 virtual option is fun to play with.

If you want a tidy and discreet soundbar to bring significant extra presence to your TV sound then the HT-G700 is worth your consideration. If you're hoping for some Dolby Atmos-style immersion, though - or proper tonal balance where music is concerned - you won't consider it all that long
Compact and tidily finished; Wireless subwoofer offers extra convenience (and wallop); Far more dynamic and direct a listen than virtually every TV
Soundbar and subwoofer aren’t on great terms; Tonality is skewed - with high frequencies in particular quite hard work; Doesn’t make good on claims of Atmos-style surround sound

Great sound and soundstage; Bass is crisp; Music sounds amazing; Setup is super easy.
No ability to build out; claims of height simulation overblown
Accomplished but not really immersive
Few soundbars can simulate surround sound like the Sony HT-G700.
Impressive enveloping soundscape, clear speech.
The sub could be more linear, and dialogues lack finesse.
The Sony HT-G700 is big on sound and on value – for cinematic scale and weight, there are few better soundbars at the price
Big; weighty sound; Impressive Atmos effect; Solid and stylish
Lack of crispness and clarity; No streaming functionality
Support for virtual 3D modes from Dolby, DTS, and Sony; Crisp, punchy sound; Easy setup; Night and voice enhancer modes;
Virtual 3D modes sound harsh at times; No Wi-Fi support; Remote is tricky to use;
If you don't have the space for a full surround sound system, the HT-G700 is a smart way of bringing Atmos to the home with a smaller footprint. It isn't the surround sound experience Sony suggests it is, but the Vertical Surround Engine works brilliantly in creating height channels without the aid...
Atmos for a compact space; Vertical Surround Engine is clever; Tight; punchy bass; Enjoyable music performance; Suited to compact spaces
Overcomplicated menu system; Claims of virtual surround sound is overstated; Squashed aspect to the sound at times
The HT-G700’s $500 price tag might sound enticing given its array of 3D audio functionality, but it’s missing a huge feature: Wi-Fi connectivity.
Support for virtual 3D modes from Dolby; DTS; and Sony; Crisp; punchy sound; Easy setup; Night and voice enhancer modes
Virtual 3D modes sound harsh at times; No Wi-Fi support; Remote is tricky to use
