Excellent Rear Speakers for True Surround Sound
KIMBERLY Posted
The Sony BRAVIA Rear Speakers are a great addition for anyone looking to create a more immersive home theater experience. They deliver clear surround effects, helping movies, shows, and games feel more engaging and realistic. Setup is straightforward when paired with compatible BRAVIA theater systems, and the wireless design keeps cable clutter to a minimum. While they perform best in small to medium-sized rooms, the sound quality is impressive, with good detail and balanced audio. Overall, they're a solid upgrade for users who want true surround sound without a complicated installation.

Bravia rear speakers
Cheryl Posted
These speakers are a game changer. We bought a Sony soundbar and sub woofer last year. We weren’t very happy with it, just wasn’t loud enough, seemed underpowered. We went to BestBuy to check out some other speakers and the salesman showed us these rear speakers that go with our soundbar and subwoofer. They sounded really good in the store so we bought them. WOW, what a difference it made.

Sony Bravia Rear Speakers
Blondeambition Posted
Maybe a bit pricey, but so easy to set up and the sound is terrific, so perhaps worth the price. I added this to an existing Bravia soundbar.

Winkanimus Posted
These work great with my Sony soundbar. The clarity and distance of noise is excellent. The set up of these speakers was incredibly easy; plug it in, connect to your tv/soundbar, run auto calibration, and enjoy your speakers.

SusanS Posted
This was a Xmas present to myself. I already had the Bravia 8 soundbar and woofer, but I really wanted the rear speakers. I scored an open box pair at a great price, which were in pristine condition. Setup was easy, and they really fill out the sound. I thought I saw other people complaining about the volume, but it's adjustable on the TV so I'm not sure what their issue was. In fact I've even turned them up too loud at times. Sometimes I forget they're there, and a sound comes out of them and scares the heck out of me, not being used to sounds coming from behind me :). For speakers as small as they are, they really put out a good sound. I'm very pleased with my purchase.

Once the calibration is run these speakers do a great job making the sound seem real and coming from places that aren't actual speakers

Sony is definitely an underrated brand that keeps surprising me with every purchase I make. Went to the store to get a sonos or Samsung soundbar and walked out with the whole theater set. I recommend 1000%, not the loudest, but crispy clean sound

Connectivity issues
JerryS Posted
So far I am very pleased with the sound quality and performance. However, for some unknown reason it has been repeatedly dropping its connection with a Sony straz3000es receiver that I previously owned. I have since ordered the Sony straz5000es which I hope it will work wit and remain connected.

Great quality!
Mixcoatl Posted
I recently added these rear speakers to my home surround sound setup, and I’m really impressed with the quality! The sound is rich, balanced, and fills the room beautifully, making movie nights feel like being in a theater. The build quality is solid, and the wireless connection is reliable with no noticeable lag or dropouts. My only small wish is that the instructions include more precise guidance on how to integrate the speakers into an existing surround sound system. It took a bit of trial and error to get everything perfectly synced, but once set up, they performed flawlessly. Overall, this is an excellent addition for anyone looking to upgrade their home audio experience.
