Upmix stereo content to surround sound - Sony's unique upmixer delivers rich surround sound even from stereo content. Its innovative algorithm extracts and redistributes individual audio objects to immerse you in 3D sound.

Powerful and well-balanced bass - This wireless subwoofer delivers well-balanced, detailed, and powerful low end that enhances both movies and music—and with simple wireless connection, where you place it is up to you.

Clear dialogue

Don't miss dialogue. Don't miss scenes. - Hear dialogue as it was meant to be. With a center speaker for precise voice placement and Voice mode for easy speech boost, conversations stay clear no matter the scene.

Center speaker for clear dialogue - A dedicated center speaker ensures crystal-clear voice reproduction in every scene. From intense conversations to hushed whispers, you'll catch every word with precision, enhancing your viewing experience across all types of content.

Clear voice and precise sound image - Using a single speaker unit to reproduce a wide frequency range from bass to treble simultaneously can cause distortion and result in a muffled and unclear sound image. Our unique signal processing technology suppresses this distortion for clear dialogue and precise imaging.

Sync with BRAVIA

With BRAVIA, home becomes cinema - Bring the emotion and excitement of a movie theater home. Pair BRAVIA Theater Bar 5 with a BRAVIA TV for an unmatched audio-visual experience, immersing you in every scene as never before.

Crystal clear voice. Precise dialogue. - No more muffled voices. Combined with compatible BRAVIA, our new Voice Zoom 3™ powered by AI machine learning recognizes human voices and amplifies or reduces their volume so even faint dialogue sounds loud and clear.

Effortless control with BRAVIA - Control surround sound easily with your BRAVIA TV remote. Sound settings automatically appear on the BRAVIA Quick Settings menu for easy control of features, like Sound Field and volume.

The perfect partner for your BRAVIA TV - If you have a BRAVIA with a multi-position stand, you can adjust the stand to fit the BRAVIA Theater Bar 5 neatly in front of the TV for a clean, elegant look.

Easy setup and operation

So easy to use - BRAVIA Theater Bar 5 makes surround sound simple. Everything from setup to control is easily done with your smartphone. The app guides you step by step, leaving you ready to enjoy true cinematic immersion.

Do it all with BRAVIA Connect - The BRAVIA Connect smartphone app, when connected to compatible our home audio products, guides you through initial settings, assists with troubleshooting, and lets you control volume, sound field and more. It also notifies you about software updates and allows control of a compatible TV.

Simple remote, intuitive control - Comfort and simplicity at your fingertips. Our remote's hand-fit design and easy volume and sound controls keep your experience effortless.

Control at your fingertips—volume, bass, sound modes - Enjoy instant control over your audio with multiple sound modes, including Night Mode, Voice Mode, Bass Adjustment, and more. This remote makes it easy to fine-tune your sound for any occasion.

Bluetooth® connection - Stream audio content wirelessly. Bluetooth® technology makes it easy to enjoy music, podcasts and more from your smartphone, tablet or laptop.

Give your favorite music a boost - When an original music source is compressed, it loses the high-frequency elements that give detail and richness to a track. Our Digital Sound Enhancement Engine (DSEE) faithfully restores these to produce high-quality sound that’s closer to the original recording.

Environment and Accessibility

Environment in mind - Sony’s home audio products are designed not only for excellent sound experiences but also with the environment in mind. We are committed to using less virgin plastic in our packaging. Approximately 64%7 of the packaging is made from recycled paper and paper-based materials to minimize the use of virgin plastic.

Love the planet, smart for all - BRAVIA is designed to harmonize with people’s needs while respecting natural resources. We're accelerating our accessibility initiatives, enabling people who are blind or deaf to use Sony’s devices, and expanding our environmental initiatives by incorporating recycled plastic into our products. Entertainment becomes more inclusive and enjoyable for all.

Accessible for all - To help people who are vision impaired set up their subwoofer, a raised square frame guides users to a QR code for the web help guide, which offers screen reader support.
