Immersive Surround Sound From A 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 dual 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
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
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
Front Speakers
Provide high-quality sound with less distortion and high vocal clarity from an X-Balanced Speaker Unit
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)
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 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
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
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
