Key Features
X-Balanced Speaker Unit
The built-in dual subwoofer and front speakers feature an X-Balanced Speaker Unit. The unique rectangular shape of these speakers maximises the diaphragm area for more punchy bass. It also reduces driver excursion while maintaining sound pressure, resulting in less distortion and greater vocal clarity.
SA-SW5 optional subwoofer
300W of deep, rich bass from a 180mm driver with passive radiator.
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 recognising 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. A = Expanded audio dynamics (strings and whisper-quiet subtleties) B = Restored high frequencies (acoustic and vocal instrument realism)
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.
SA-RS3S optional rear speakers
Total 100W of wider surround sound.
SA-RS5 optional rear speakers
Total 180W of wider surround sound with up-firing speakers.
SA-SW3 optional subwoofer
200W of sound from a compact bass reflex subwoofer with a 160mm driver.

Even more immersion with BRAVIA Acoustic Center Sync
When connected to a BRAVIA TV with Acoustic Center Sync, both the soundbar and the TV become the centre speaker in your home cinema system. Furthermore, connecting the soundbar with optional wireless rear speakers, the TV speaker plays the centre channel role with your soundbar as part of the 360 Spatial Sound Mapping setup. This enables sound to precisely match what's on the screen for clearer dialogue and a more immersive experience.

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.
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.
So immersive. So real.
Discover a new way of listening with 360 Reality Audio for a truly immersive live concert or studio session experience.
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 or up-firing speakers. As well as Dolby Atmos and DTS:X, Vertical Surround Engine lends a more realistic, multi-dimensional sound to other formats too.
Built-in dual subwoofer for deep bass sound
The soundbar has a powerful built-in dual subwoofer in the centre - so you can enjoy deep bass sound with minimal equipment cluttering up your living space.
Centre speaker for clear dialogue
A dedicated centre speaker ensures that voice sounds can be clearly heard, whether it's quick-fire dialogue in your favourite TV show or whispered lines in a movie. It's great for music too, ensuring a richly detailed listening experience.
Sound from advanced speakers and a subwoofer
Powerful speakers - three front speakers for surround and a built-in dual subwoofer for rumbling bass - work together to deliver clear, wide-ranging sound throughout your room.
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 soundbar 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
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 dialogue and more localised sound. The improvements in the modulated waveform enhance clarity and help prevent vocal distortion. This graph is for illustration purposes. 1. Voice waveform 2. Bass waveform 3. Modulated waveform
