Sony - SA-RS3S Wireless Rear Speaker - Black

Great satelite speakers that are compatible with the HT-A3000, 5000, and 7000. So pretty versital and connects almost instantly. Great sound and havt had any issues with them cutting out or losing connection. These ARE WIRELESS, but undestand what that means - they dont directly connect to the main unit, thus they wirelessly (wifi/bluetooth) connect to the main bar. They do have a power cord. So you can place them anywhere in your room. My only gripe is that i cant control them to always play music or “surround “ if the channel that is coming through isnt supporting surround capabilities. So unless im playing a dolby movie, or music that suports surround sound, they dont play anything or play at a very low volume even with the volume at max

I recently bought a Sony A5000 soundbar to go with my Sony Bravia A80J big screen. The sound bar was a big improvement over my old one but I wanted to get true surround sound. I read a lot of reviews about the two options for this system (the RS3S and the RS5S) and opted for the smaller pair as the surround sound in this system is such that not everything comes through the back speakers. While testing that was apparent. Sometimes nothing happens with the rear set. But man, when something uses the rears these smaller speakers pack a punch. And it depends on how the Dolby Atmos is coded. For example, in The Batman the rears are used for mood and you hear a lot of music and ambient noise through the rears as opposed to explosions. Oppenheimer used it for explosions, yes, but also for weather. And these smaller speakers handle these tasks incredibly well. I did turn the rears to full volume and would recommend purchasers do the same so you can enjoy the immersive effect when they are used. And the best part of this is that I was able to buy these as an open box-excellent item. If you are in the market for rear speakers for the A3000/5000/7000 don’t hesitate buying these smaller rear speakers—especially if you can get an open box deal!

Get these if you want decent sound and value wireless connectivity with your sony soundbar or receiver. I have an AN1000 and they pair perfectly with it for rear surround duty.

Great speakers sound, On the rear for my ,7000 soundbar. I will recommend who loves ❤️ Sony

A must buy with with any a series sound bar. I am using it with ht-a3000 and made a lot of difference compared to the sound bar alone as I was about to return it. Also purchased a subwoofer to complete the system. Movies, music and ps5 games sounds great. Easy to set up.
