Sony HT-A5000 5.1.2 Channel Dolby Atmos® / DTS:X® Soundbar - Open Box
The Sony HT-A5000 has 5.1.2 channels, which include two up-firing speakers for overhead sound, two beam tweeters, and three front speakers for a broader surround sound, as well as a built-in twin subwoofer for deep bass. It creates virtual surround sound from all around you with Vertical Surround Engine and S-Force PRO Front Surround, so you can truly appreciate the excitement 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.

Want to try the immersive sound of Sony HT-A5000 on your favourite devices? We recommend slipping on your headphones for a thrilling virtual surround experience.
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.
X-Balanced Speaker Unit
The up-firing speakers, built-in dual 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 dialogue 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 Sony HT-A5000 uses Sony’s unique signal processing technology to deliver dynamic extended bass, at any volume level (B).
