Thinking of adding a soundbar to my BRAVIA 9—how do Sony’s models actually sound?

Sony soundbars match well with Bravia TVs not just because of the sound but also their menu integration that is added to your tv quick menu for easy changes. What to get will depends on your budget. Just the Bar alone with a somewhat all in one that you can upgrade later, I would say Sony HT-A5000 t

Update: Enjoying my Switch 2 as I received good news phone call from the doctor that I’m melanoma free!

For games and movies I use the Sony A5000 and the Sony SA-SW3. It thumps and has great range. It can handle anything I to row at it. I got Samsung Q990D which is a little superior in another room. However, the Sony stuff really all pairs great together.

What Soundbar will work the best in this living room size?

It delivers really good sound for such a small soundbar. I can only compare it with a Sony HT-A5000 + the Sony sub, which I bought initially. Ambeo mini with the sub sounds miles better than Sony, perhaps not that loud but for me is not a problem. As I said, the sound is cristal clear and the voices

5.1 Surround System advice

The theater bar 8 is absolutely sick and is worth the grand. But the HTA3000 is a good sound bar too if you wanted to take the Sony route

I have the HT-A5000 and had the HT-A7000. I would highly suggest at least the SW3 subwoofer for sure. It's worth the investment.

Optiq, Apple Music & ATMOS

As I type this I am streaming ATMOS and 360 encoded music from Amazon Prime Music from my Samsung phone to my Sony HT-A5000 soundbar using Bluetooth... it works perfectly!

Questions about Acoustic Center Sync

What settings are you using exactly? Same TV but the HT A5000 and ACS sounds awful. So tinny and overpowering.

Anyone have the Bravia Theatre Sub 7?

I replaced my SW3 with the SW7. Room is 4x4m and the SW3 was just too powerful. There was a great rumble and I loved it but the neighbors wouldn't have appreciated it. Always ended up having it on a very low level. Replaced it with the SW7 and while there is a noticeable difference, it suits perfect
