360 Spatial Sound Mapping Dolby Atmos^®/DTS:X^® 5.1.2ch Soundbar | HT-A5000

Immersive surround sound from a premium soundbar

The HT-A5000 has 5.1.2 channels: Two up-firing speakers for overhead sound, two beam tweeters and three front speakers for wider surround, plus a built-in subwoofer for deep bass. With Vertical Surround Engine and S-Force PRO Front Surround, it creates virtual surround sound that comes from all around you, so you can fully enjoy the thrill of Dolby Atmos^® and DTS:X^®.

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 lends a more realistic, multi-dimensional sound to other formats, too.

Surround made simple

Using front speakers only, Sony's unique 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.

Sound from advanced speakers and a subwoofer

Powerful speakers work together to deliver clear, wide-ranging sound throughout your room. Two up-firing speakers for overhead sound, two beam tweeters and three front speakers for surround, and a subwoofer for rumbling bass.

Up-firing speakers

Reflect sound off the ceiling for immersive overhead audio using X-balanced speaker technology. Combines with Vertical Surround Engine to 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. Combines with S-Force PRO Front Surround for even wider surround sound.

Built-in subwoofer

Delivers high sound pressure for clear, deep bass. This has been achieved by expanding the area of the diaphragm and the size of the subwoofer (X-Balanced Speaker Unit).

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 speakers, built-in subwoofer 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.

Upscale your digital music in real time

Using Edge-AI (Artificial Intelligence), DSEE Extreme^™ (Digital Sound Enhancement Engine) 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.

Clearer voice

The deeper the bass sound, the more the speaker diaphragm moves. This can cause an effect called phase modulation distortion when a full-range diaphragm needs to simultaneously reproduce higher frequencies. Sony's unique signal processing technology compensates for this effect for clearer dialog and more localized sound. The improvements in the modulated waveform enhance clarity and help prevent vocal distortion.

Extended bass

It takes a lot of power to accurately reproduce low bass frequencies, and there's often a risk of distortion (A). To combat this, the HT-A5000 uses Sony's unique signal processing technology to deliver dynamic extended bass, at any volume level (B). This graph is for illustration purposes. 1. Level 2. Low 3. High 4. Frequency.

Rediscover your favorite music

With High-Resolution Audio, you can experience the music you love with the utmost authenticity and precision. Try 360 Reality Audio¹ for a new way to experience music that puts you at the heart of the experience, with sounds and different instruments all around.

Get a fuller, richer sound with a wireless subwoofer and rear speakers

An optional wireless subwoofer allows a built-in dual subwoofer in the soundbar to handle bass and vocals, with the optional wireless subwoofer focusing on low-range sound. For even more cinematic thrills with sound directly behind you, add our optional wireless rear speakers.

Even more immersion with BRAVIA Acoustic Center Sync

When connected to a BRAVIA TV with Acoustic Center Sync,^{2, 3} both the soundbar and the TV become the center speaker in your home theater system. Furthermore, when connecting the soundbar with optional wireless speakers⁴, the TV speaker plays the center channel role with your soundbar as part of the 360 Spatial Sound Mapping⁵ setup. This enables sound to precisely match what's on the screen for a truly immersive experience.

Sound perfectly matches action

With Acoustic Center Sync, you'll hear dialog from exactly where the character is standing in the scene. Action and sound are precisely aligned so your viewing becomes much more immersive.

Effortless control with BRAVIA

Soundbar position

If you have a BRAVIA with a multi-position stand, you can change the position of the TV stand and fit the HT-A5000 discreetly beneath the TV for a clean look.

Omnidirectional Block Design

The HT-A5000 and optional speakers have been designed under a common 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.

Excellent Sound Bar

Flying Friar, Cranston, RI: I am very happy with this product. I did purchase the Subwoofer SW3 a few weeks after the initial purchase. The subwoofer fills the room with a richer sound. This is very evident when playing music on the device. It also has an impact on certain television content like movies and live sports.Overall though though I am very happy with the performance of the sound bar.
