Sony presents perfect soundbar for PS5 and XSX with spicy price

Sony is one of the manufacturers we look to when we want to buy something related to sound and quality. And so it is confirmed again with the presentation of the new soundbar (soundbar) HT-A7000.

According to Sony, this “enables you to discover a whole new level of immersion”. For that you can count on “7.1.2 channels, two speakers facing up for superior sound, two beam tweeters and five front speakers for wider surround and a built-in dual subwoofer for deep bass”.

Sony HT-A700 supports HDMI 2.1, 8K resolution and 4K gaming at 120Hz

The best part is that this easily becomes the perfect soundbar for anyone with a PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X. This is because it has two HDMI 2.1 ports, with support for 8K, 4K gaming at 120Hz and even eARC or Dolby Vision.  

“Paired with the Vertical Surround Engine and S-Force PRO Front Surround, the HT-A7000 creates virtual surround sound from all directions so you can get the most out of the excitement of Dolby Atmos and DTS:X,” says Sony .

It's important to note that you can listen to music with 360 Reality Audio through the streaming services Amazon Music HD, Deezer, nugs.net and TIDAL. It also has DSEE Extreme technology that restores “all your compressed digital music files in real time to recover the high-end sound lost in compression”.

You can “easily access all major streaming music services like Spotify” and all your “favorite albums and playlists via Chromecast, Spotify Connect or Apple AirPlay 2”. It is even possible to listen to music “streaming, wirelessly, from the smartphone with Bluetooth technology” or through the “integrated Wi-Fi”.

 Sony HT-A7000 supports Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa

It's even compatible with devices that have Google Assistant, built-in Chromecast and Amazon Alexa. You can add the HT-A7000 to your speaker group with the Google Home app and start adjusting all parameters with just your voice.

“The HT-A7000 is practically ready to use right out of the box. Just plug it in, connect it to your TV via the HDMI eARC connection and press the power button. With USB, optical and analog auditory inputs, as well as HDMI input and output (eARC) and S-CENTER OUT for compatible BRAVIA models,” says Sony.

Sony HT-A7000 will be priced at approximately €1300, plus optional speakers and subwoofer

However, you should bear in mind that with great quality comes an associated 'salty' price. The Sony HT-A7000 will be accessible from September 2021 for an approximate price of €1300.

The optional SA-RS3S rear speakers will cost around €500, and the optional SA-SW5 subwoofer will cost between €700 to €800. The SW-SW3, also optional, will cost approximately 500 €. All of these will also be available from September.
