Our Verdict
Sony HT-S350
Sony HT-G700
The Sony HT-G700 is better than the Sony HT-S350. The HT-G700 is a 3.1 setup that supports Dolby Atmos content and comes with a Full HDMI In port, unlike the HT-S350. It also has better center and surround performances, and it reproduces a more extended low-bass. That said, the 2.1 HT-S350 has a better stereo soundstage.
