EAN: 027242922471

Enjoy virtual surround sound for nearly everything you watch with the Sony HT-A5000 450W Virtual 3.0.2-Channel Soundbar. Its ability to decode multichannel audio formats like Dolby Atmos and DTS:X adds a height dimension to your compatible media. Onboard processing technologies along with driver directionality augment stereo sources to virtual surround sound to provide a more immersive experience for all your media.

The soundbar has Bluetooth connectivity built in, allowing wireless pairing with your compatible smart device for wireless audio streaming. Its wired connections include HDMI, optical, and a USB port for media playback from suitable drives. The HDMI output is eARC- and ARC-compatible, so you can hear audio from your smart TV`s built-in apps like Netflix and YouTube.

Experience Sound from Above

Thanks to Sony`s virtual surround technology, the soundbar can position sound in vertical space, so you can experience 3D audio without the need for in-ceiling speakers. As well as Dolby Atmos and DTS:X, Vertical Surround Engine technology lends a more realistic, multi-dimensional sound to other formats too.

Surround Made Simple

Using only the front speakers, Sony`s digital sound field processing technology virtually reproduces the surround sound field, with audio coming at you from both sides. You can enjoy rich, cinematic surround sound without cluttering your living space.

Sophisticated Speaker Technology

Sit back and enjoy room-filling acoustics with two up-firing drivers for overhead sound, two beam tweeters, and five front speakers for wider surround, plus two woofers for deep bass.

• Up-firing drivers reflect sound off the ceiling for immersive overhead audio. Combined with Vertical Surround Engine technology, these give you an even more atmospheric overhead sound experience.
• Beam tweeters bounce sound off the side walls and expand surround sound to give you an immersive experience that goes beyond the size of your TV. They combine with S-Force PRO Front Surround technology for even wider surround sound.
• Dual passive radiators deliver high-sound pressure for clear, deep bass.
• Front speakers provide high-quality sound with less distortion and high vocal clarity from an X-Balanced Speaker Unit.

X-Balanced Speaker Unit

The up-firing drivers, woofers, and front speaker feature an X-Balanced Speaker Unit. The unique rectangular shape of these speakers maximizes the diaphragm area for more punchy bass. It also reduces driver excursion while maintaining sound pressure, resulting in less distortion and greater vocal clarity.

Movies and Games Feel Real

With 8K UHD, 4K UHD/120, and Dolby Vision pass-through support, your favorite movies and games are even more thrilling.

Enjoy an Immersive Gaming and Movie Experience

Enjoy immersive gaming and movie watching with optimized picture settings by Auto HDR Tone Mapping and Auto Genre Picture Mode when connecting BRAVIA XR TVs and PlayStation 5 (via a future firmware update).

Real-Time Restoration of All Your Compressed Files

Using Edge-AI (Artificial Intelligence), DSEE Extreme (Digital Sound Enhancement Engine) technology upscales compressed digital music files in real time. Dynamically recognizing instrumentation, musical genres, and individual elements of each song, such as vocals or interludes, it restores the high-range sound lost in compression for a richer, more complete listening experience.

Immerse Yourself in Supreme Music Quality

Enjoy music the way the artists truly intended with High-Resolution Audio for crystal-clear precision. Or discover a new way of listening with 360 Reality Audio for a truly immersive live concert or studio session experience.

Sound Field Optimization

No need to precisely place speakers. The HT-A5000 has built-in microphones that do it all for you, intelligently measuring the position of each speaker, vertically and horizontally, and optimizing sound to your room. The HT-A5000 lets you enjoy Sound Field Optimization with or without optional speakers. Activate via the initial settings or the home menu.

Omnidirectional Block Design

The HT-A5000 has been designed under the Omnidirectional Block concept. Its sophisticated rounded edges represent a single solid block providing wide-spreading sound. The combination of rich material textures emphasizes an affinity with any living room environment.
