Sony HT-S400
vs
Klipsch Cinema 400

l would like to share my experience after comparing and testing two soundbars – Sony HT-S400 vs Klipsch Cinema 400. The Sony HT-S400 was rated 4.4, while the Klipsch Cinema 400 has a rating 4.6.

These rivals can be compared in terms of power, 330 (overall) versus 400 (overall) according to devices. The built-in subwoofer is not implemented in any of these models. An external subwoofer connects to the HT-S400 via wireless, but Cinema 400 has wired connection type. Rate 6 out of 10 received the Sony HT-S400 for audio features and specs, but the Klipsch Cinema 400 received 5 out of 10.
