The Sony HT-B500 is a 3.1-channel soundbar with a built-in subwoofer and Dolby Atmos decoding. Its main draw is a one-box setup: no separate sub to place, and a single HDMI eARC cable handles TV sound and remote control. It suits small and medium rooms where a full 5.1 system is impractical. Against rivals like the Sonos Beam and Bose Smart Soundbar, it trades rear-channel expansion and room calibration for simplicity and a punchier built-in low end.

Owners generally like the clean one-box setup and the bass the built-in sub delivers for its size. Most criticism centers on the surround effect, which stays in front of the listener, and on the bass running out of depth at high volume.
