Q: QuestionIf I were to purchase this sound system, would I be able to add two additional Sony Speakers to it? Looking to possibly have this sound system inside and then two deck speakers?

Asked 4 months ago by Jake.

• A:Answer Hello Jake, Thank you for considering Sony products! We appreciate your question and are here to assist you. Regarding your inquiry about the HT-S60 sound system: This model is a 5.1-channel home theater system that includes a soundbar, subwoofer, and two rear speakers.

Q: QuestionWill the sub and rear speakers from this work with a Bravia 8 Model: HTA8000 sound bar?

Asked 4 months ago by TomL.

• A:Answer Hi Bravia8bar, Thank you for your question! Unfortunately, no, the subwoofer and rear speakers from the Sony BRAVIA Theater System 6 (HTS60) are not compatible with the BRAVIA Theater Bar 8 (HTA8000) soundbar. The HTS60 is an all-in-one system, and its components are proprietary to that specific model. The HTA8000 is designed to work only with its own range of optional accessories, such as the SA-SW3, SA-SW5 subwoofers, and the SA-RS5 or SA-RS3S rear speakers. We hope you find this information helpful, and thanks for considering Sony! Regards, Dominick

Q: QuestionEven though these can be wall mounted. Is there a floor stand that I can purchase that is compatible with the rear speakers? Such as SANUS Speaker Stands Pair 3.5lbs or Sanus Universal Speaker Stands 10lb? What the weight of the rear speakers?

Asked 4 months ago by Tiny.

• A:Answer Hi Tiny, Thank you for your question about suitable floor stands for the rear speakers. While the speakers are designed for wall-mounting, Sony does not offer or recommend specific third-party speaker stands, so we cannot comment on the compatibility of SANUS products. However, the official weight of each individual rear speaker for the BRAVIA Theater System 6 is approximately 0.89 kg (1 lb 16 oz), which will allow you to select a third-party stand that meets the required weight capacity. Thanks for choosing Sony. Best regards, Eliab

Q: QuestionWill this system be compatible with an Insignia smart tv?

Asked 7 months ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer Hi there, Thank you for choosing Sony! We appreciate your question and are here to assist you. Yes, the Sony HTS60 soundbar is compatible with an Insignia smart TV. Connectivity is established through several common port types, with the optimal choice depending on the specific ports available on your Insignia TV. HDMI ARC/eARC: This is the best option because it allows audio to be sent from the TV to the soundbar through a single HDMI cable, and it can also enable control of the soundbar's power and volume using your TV's remote. Optical (TOSLINK) Audio Output: This is a great alternative if your TV doesn't have an HDMI ARC port. For a detailed visual guide on these connection types and setup instructions, refer to the Sony official support page: https://helpguide.sony.net/ht/2089/v1/en/contents/011_Connecting_to_a_TV_2089.html Best regards, -Fred

Q: QuestionMy surroundings sound speakers sometimes had a single popping noise when watching tv. How do I fix this? Is this something I have to take into best buy?

Asked 1 month ago by TylenaS.

• A:Answer Hi Lena, We’re sorry to hear about the popping noise coming from your BRAVIA Theater System 6. This is often caused by wireless interference or a minor software glitch rather than a hardware defect. Before considering a return or repair, we recommend trying these steps: Update Firmware: Open the Sony | BRAVIA Connect app to ensure your system is running the latest software, which often includes fixes for audio stability. Adjust Wireless Settings: In the app, go to Settings → Wireless Speaker Connection Settings and set the Wireless Playback Quality to Priority on Stable Connection. Check for Interference: Ensure the control box is at least 5 feet away from any wireless routers and that there are no large metal objects or other electronic devices directly between the speakers and the box. Reset RF Channel: In the app settings, try toggling the RF Channel to Off and then back to On to refresh the connection. If the noise persists after these steps, please let us know so we can assist you further: https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US. Thanks for choosing Sony.

Q: Questioncan you connect a blue ray player to the Sony system 6

Asked 2 months ago by norm.

• A:Answer Hi Norm, Thank you for your question! The BRAVIA Theater System 6 is designed to receive audio directly from your television via the HDMI eARC or Optical connection. Because the system features one HDMI output dedicated to the TV, you do not connect the Blu-ray player directly to the BRAVIA Theater System 6. Instead, you should connect your Blu-ray player to an HDMI input on your TV. The TV will then "pass through" the high-quality audio signal to the BRAVIA Theater System 6. This setup ensures that you experience the full audio fidelity of your Blu-ray discs, including spatial audio formats, while allowing the BRAVIA Theater System 6 to stay perfectly synced with your display. Thank you for considering Sony! Regards, Dominick

Asked 2 months ago by Frank.

• A:Answer Hello Frank, Thank you for considering Sony products! We appreciate your inquiry about the wireless connectivity of the rear speakers in the HT-S60 system and are happy to assist you. The HT-S60 features a wireless amplifier box that connects wirelessly to the main soundbar unit, reducing cable clutter.

Q: QuestionCan i connect my components (DVD player, CD player, etc.) through my Sony STR DH-590, then with one HDMI cable to Vizio TV so that output sound flows through Bravia Theater System? Can't seem to make it work? Already using the one HDMI arc TV to Bravia.

Asked 2 months ago by UtahDave.

• A:Answer Hi UtahDave, Thank you for your question! The short answer is no, you cannot connect your components through the Sony receiver and expect the sound to flow into the BRAVIA Theater System 6. This is because both the receiver and the BRAVIA Theater System 6 are standalone audio systems. Your Vizio TV is designed to output sound to only one external audio system at a time via the HDMI-ARC/eARC port. When you have both connected, they essentially compete for control, and the TV cannot bridge the audio signal from the receiver over to the BRAVIA Theater System 6. To make this work, you must remove the STR-DH590 receiver from the setup entirely. The BRAVIA Theater System 6 is designed to be your primary sound system. You should plug your DVD player, CD player, and other components directly into the open HDMI ports on your Vizio TV. The TV will then act as the central hub, taking the audio from those devices and sending it down the single HDMI-ARC cable to your BRAVIA Theater System 6. We hope you find this information helpful, and thanks for considering Sony! Regards, Dominick
