Sony Bravia Theatre Bar 9 Soundbar (HT-A9000)

Taking sound above and beyond

Sony's top-of-the-range soundbar features 360 Spatial Sound Mapping with 13 speaker units, a new generation of surround technology for immersive, cinematic sound.

Rewriting the rules of surround sound

Go beyond conventional surround sound. Combining physical and phantom speakers, BRAVIA Theatre Bar 9 creates a wider surround sound field for outstanding immersion.

Sony Theatre Bar 9

Ultimate surround with 360 Spatial Sound Mapping

Experience the ultimate in home surround. 360 Spatial Sound Mapping technology creates 5 phantom speakers in front of you and reflects sound off the ceiling and walls, enabling cinema-style surround sound from a single soundbar.

Enjoy wider surround sound coverage

Now more people can enjoy the same immersive surround experience. By using phantom speakers, 360 Spatial Sound Mapping technology achieves wider coverage than conventional virtual surround systems.

Sony Theatre Bar 9

Unleash the full potential of 360 Spatial Sound Mapping

Add optional wireless rear speakers for an even more expansive sound stage. Working with the rear speakers, the Bar 9 creates up to 11 phantom speakers, including speakers behind you for that authentic cinema feel.

Sound straight from cinema

Bring authentic cinema surround sound quality to your living room. BRAVIA Theatre Bar 9 not only supports industry-standard formats including Dolby Atmos® and DTS:X®, but also has IMAX® Enhanced certification.

Sony Theatre Bar 9

Upmix stereo content to surround sound

Sony's new upmixer delivers rich surround sound even from stereo content. Its innovative algorithm extracts and redistributes individual audio objects to immerse you in 3D sound. While upmixing, AI Sound Separation processing detects human voices and makes them sound clearer.

Makes everywhere the best seat

It doesn’t matter which seat you’re in. It doesn’t even matter what your room’s acoustics are like. Sound Field Optimization lets everyone experience movie theatre surround sound.

Sony Theatre Bar 9

Optimised sound for maximum enjoyment

Sony have made surround sound simple. Sound Field Optimization not only calibrates sound based on speaker position, it also takes your room’s acoustics into account, and your listening position too.

Speaker placement made simple

Adding rear speakers? Don’t worry about finding the perfect position. Sound Field Optimization calibrates sound based on their location and uses phantom speakers to fill any gaps in the surround stage.

Calibrated to suit your room

No need to remodel your home to get movie theatre acoustics. Sound Field Optimization analyses your room's acoustic characteristics, then uses advanced signal processing to overwrite them with those of a movie theatre.

Sony Theatre Bar 9

The best seat is where you are

Enjoy quality surround sound wherever you're sitting. Just run calibration with the smartphone app, BRAVIA Connect, and BRAVIA Theatre Bar 9 will detect your position in the room and optimise sound to suit.

Sony Theatre Bar 9

Innovative acoustic design with 13 speaker units

There’s more to great surround sound than signal processing alone. Your physical speakers need to deliver exceptional acoustic performance too – and BRAVIA Theatre Bar 9 doesn’t disappoint.

Sony Theatre Bar 9

New 2-way speaker

Discover clear, wide surround sound from a single soundbar. The Bar 9 features a new 2-way speaker with added tweeters for front and centre, delivering wider surround sound and a precise sound image.

Sony Theatre Bar 9

Quad woofer and passive radiators deliver deep bass

Don’t be fooled by the slimline design. Thanks to built-in quad woofers and passive radiators, the Bar 9 generates the type of deep, resonant bass you’d expect from much larger speakers.

Sony Theatre Bar 9

Side speakers and beam tweeters for expansive sound

For added atmosphere, side speakers fill your living space with wide directional sound while beam tweeters expand the sound stage by reflecting directional high frequency sound off the walls.

Sony Theatre Bar 9

Hear sound from overhead

Up-firing speakers reflect sound off the ceiling for immersive overhead audio. 360 Spatial Sound Mapping creates phantom ceiling speakers for even more atmospheric sound.

Environment in mind

Sony’s home audio products are designed not only for excellent sound experience but also with the environment in mind. Sony are committed to using less virgin plastic in Sony products and packaging.

Sony Theatre Bar 9

Serious about sound and the environment

Sony Home Audio products utilise recycled plastics to reduce the amount of virgin plastic used. The choice of material affects sound quality in particular, so Sony have spent years developing a unique recycled plastic that is both environmentally conscious and conducive to creating high-quality audio products.

Sony Theatre Bar 9

Developing recycled plastic

Sony's recycled plastic is recovered from discs and water cooler bottles. The reclaimed plastic is removed of any films or coatings, and then used as a base material. Aiming for uncompromising audio quality, Sony tested a wide variety of combinations to determine the best possible solution for audio products.

Recycled fabric

The fabric used in Sony products, such as the BRAVIA Theatre Bar 9 and BRAVIA Theatre Quad, is recycled from PET bottles. The material was carefully selected for optimum sound quality, design, texture, and colour.

Sony Theatre Bar 9

Eco-conscious packaging

Sony are working to reduce the amount of plastic used in packaging by utilising recycled paper materials for cushioning and inserts, and by using paper-based handles.

Sony Theatre Bar 9

Reduction of virgin plastic in new soundbar cartons

The packaging carton for the new soundbar uses 95% less virgin plastic than the previous model2. Sony also reduced the amount of printing, resulting in a 60% reduction in the amount of ink used. The aim is for packaging that is both environmentally conscious, durable, and beautifully designed without compromising functionality.
