Sony India today unveiled its latest A-Series Home Theatre Systems, including the HT-A5000 and HT-A3000 soundbars. These provide a multi-dimensional sound experience with Dolby Atmos and DTS:X. The soundbar works well with devices that support Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa. It comes with 360-degree Spatial Sound Mapping and Sound Field Optimization Technology.
The new HT-A5000 and HT-A3000 home theatre systems will be available on Amazon.in on December 12th, 2022, and in all Sony Centers, www.shopatsc.com, and major electronics retailers across India on December 14.
In terms of design minimalist Omnidirectional Block design of the Sony HT-A5000 features beautiful rounded edges. The Omnidirectional Block concept is also used in the design of the HT-A3000 and optional speakers. The HDMI eARC, optical-in, and USB ports make installation of the soundbars a breeze.
Both soundbars include Sound Field Optimization, which cleverly measures the relative height and position of the soundbar and rear speakers to provide an even more personalised and immersive sound experience. It then synthesises sound waves to produce several phantom speakers based on the positional information.
The HT-A5000 also has S-Force PRO Front Surround, which creates a broader horizontal sound field. When connected to Sony’s wireless rear speakers SA-RS5 and SA-RS3S, the HT-A5000 and HT-A3000 provide access to Sony’s breakthrough 360 Spatial Sound Mapping technology.
The HT-A5000 5.1.2 channel soundbar has a dual subwoofer built in for deep bass and two up-firing speakers that reflect sound off the ceiling for immersive overhead music. The HT-A3000 has 3.1 channels, three front speakers, one of which is dedicated to clear conversation, and a built-in dual subwoofer for deep bass. It also has two side beam tweeters, which bounce sound off the side walls and augment surround sound to provide an immersive experience.
Sony’s X-Balanced Speaker Unit is used in the up-firing speakers, built-in dual subwoofer, and front speakers. The HT-A5000 and HT-A3000 are equipped with Sony’s Vertical Surround Sound Engine technology, which allows viewers a theatre like experience at home by supporting audio formats such as Dolby Atmos and DTS:X.
The front speakers and up-firing speakers, together with Sony’s proprietary signal processing, generate “vertical” music, allowing the soundbar to position sound vertically. Now you can enjoy realistic, multi-dimensional sound without the need for in-ceiling speakers.
360 Reality Audio is available on Amazon Music HD, Deezer, nugs.net, and TIDAL. DSEE Extreme use Edge-AI to upscale compressed digital files in real-time, restoring lost high-frequency sound for a richer, more compelling listening experience. When used in conjunction with compatible BRAVIA TVs, it enhances the immersive audio-visual experience. The soundbar and TV become one with the BRAVIA Acoustic Center sync. The TV becomes the centre speaker in the home theatre system, ensuring that action and sound are perfectly matched for complete immersion. Furthermore, BRAVIA Acoustic Center Sync collaborates with the 360 Spatial Sound Mapping setup to give a more immersive viewing experience and clearer speech.
The HT-A5000 supports Spotify Connect, Chromecast built-in, Apple Airplay 2, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi, making it simple to listen to music. You get all the connections you need to enjoy a breathtaking surround sound experience, with USB, optical in, HDMI out (eARC), and S-CENTER OUT for compatible BRAVIA TVs. The soundbar is compatible with voice assistants, such as Google Assistant with built-in Chromecast or Amazon Alexa-enabled devices. Simply connect the soundbar to the speaker group using the Google Home app to begin playing music, changing the volume, or doing a variety of other tasks with your voice.
