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

Q: QuestionAte the rear speakers wireless
Asked 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. However, the rear speakers themselves are not fully wireless—they connect to the amplifier box using speaker wires. This design offers a balance between convenience and high-quality audio performance.

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 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

Q: QuestionVolume button lag on remote over eARC. How did you fix this issue? My TV is also BRAVIA.
Asked by JohnHood.
- A:Answer Thank you for bringing this up, Pepelepu! We’re sorry to hear you're experiencing volume lag on your HT-S60 over eARC. This can sometimes happen due to how the TV and soundbar communicate via HDMI-CEC. We recommend performing a power reset by unplugging both the TV and soundbar for two minutes before plugging them back in to refresh the HDMI connection. You should also ensure both devices are updated to the latest firmware. On your BRAVIA TV, you can also try going to Settings > Display & Sound > Audio Output and ensuring eARC Mode and Pass-through mode are both set to Auto. If the lag persists, please reach out to our support specialists here so we can help you find a permanent fix: https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US&category=tv Thank you for choosing Sony.

Q: QuestionWhat kind of port is required in the TV for connectivity?
Asked by KathyL.
- A:Answer Hello Kl, Thank you for considering Sony products! We’re happy to assist you. The Sony HT-S60 soundbar connects to your TV primarily via the HDMI port labeled "eARC" or "ARC" (Audio Return Channel). This connection delivers high-quality audio and allows you to control the soundbar’s volume with your TV remote. If your TV lacks an HDMI eARC/ARC port, you can also use an optical digital audio cable, depending on your TV’s available ports.

Q: QuestionDoes this pair with a Roku tv?
Asked by John.
- A:Answer Thank you for contacting Sony, John. Yes, the HT-S60 is compatible with your Roku TV. Since it uses industry-standard connections, it’s designed to work with almost any modern smart TV brand. For the best experience, we recommend using an HDMI cable to connect the HDMI OUT (eARC/ARC) port on the soundbar to the HDMI ARC port on your Roku TV. This simple wired connection allows you to use your existing Roku remote to control the soundbar's volume and power. Just be sure to enable the CEC settings in your Roku TV menu. We appreciate your interest in Sony products.

Q: QuestionIf I use this sound bar with my new Bravia 8 can the TV remote control the volume so I just use 1 remote? How far away can I mount the surround speakers? Can I use the subwoofer mounted sideways (pointing to the tv) on the shelf that the TV sits?
Asked by BigTup.
- A:Answer Thank you for contacting Sony, BigTup. Yes! When you connect your HT-S60 to your BRAVIA 8 using the HDMI (eARC/ARC) port, the Bravia Sync (HDMI-CEC) feature allows your TV remote to automatically control the soundbar volume and power. It makes for a very seamless, one-remote experience. Regarding the surround speakers, they connect wirelessly to the main bar, and for the best performance, we generally recommend placing them within about 16 to 23 feet (5 to 7 meters) of the soundbar to ensure a stable connection and proper audio timing. As for the subwoofer, while it is physically possible to lay it on its side, we strongly recommend keeping it in its vertical, upright position. The subwoofer is designed with internal components and porting intended for vertical use; laying it sideways could impact the sound quality and potentially cause unwanted vibrations on your TV shelf. For the best "punch," placing it on the floor near the TV is usually the way to go! We appreciate your interest in Sony products.

Q: QuestionHow do I connect this soundbar to both a 2yr old Brava 75in TV and a Sony 8000? BluRay player for control through the soundbar?
Asked by Bruce.
- A:Answer Hi Bruce, Thank you for your question! The feature that allows your Sony devices to be controlled together is called HDMI CEC or Control for HDMI. This function uses the HDMI cable connection to interlock your soundbar, Blu-ray player, and TV so they operate as one system. Connection Steps: To use this feature, you must connect your Sony Blu-ray Player and the BRAVIA Theater System 6 both via HDMI to your Sony BRAVIA TV. Important Note: For seamless operation, the Control for HDMI setting must be actively enabled on all three devices. We strongly recommend contacting our technical support team for specific guidance on enabling this setting for your particular models: https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US&category=tv Thank you for considering Sony products!

Q: QuestionCan the rear speakers be mounted in a down firing position on the ceiling?
Asked by Tee.
- A:Answer Hi Tee, Thank you for your question! The rear speakers for the Sony BRAVIA Theatre System 6 (HT-S60) are designed for wall mounting or placement on speaker stands/shelves. Mounting them on the ceiling in a down-firing position is not recommended. This is because the drivers in these speakers are front-firing, meaning they are intended to project sound horizontally across the room to create the immersive surround field. Directing the sound straight down from the ceiling would compromise the intended acoustic effect and spatial accuracy of the surround sound experience. For a Sony home theater system that features built-in up-firing speakers necessary for height effects in formats like Dolby Atmos and DTS:X, we recommend the BRAVIA Theatre Bar 6 with the model number HT-B600. This model is a 3.1.2-channel soundbar which includes two dedicated up-firing drivers integrated into the main unit. These drivers are specifically engineered to reflect sound off the ceiling and back down to the listening area, creating the powerful 3D audio effect. Alternatively, other premium option with this capability is the BRAVIA Theatre Bar 9 (HT-B900). We hope you find this information helpful, and thanks for considering Sony! Regards, Dominick

Q: QuestionCan I connect to a tcl tv
Asked by Awesome.
- A:Answer Hello Jr, Thank you for considering Sony products! We are excited that you are looking at the HT-S60 soundbar. We want to assure you that connecting the HT-S60 to your existing TCL TV will be very simple and offer a significant audio upgrade. You will have two excellent options for connection, depending on your TV model: 1. Recommended: HDMI ARC (Best Experience) If your TCL TV has an HDMI port labeled ARC (Audio Return Channel), this is the connection we highly recommend. Benefit: The HDMI ARC connection allows for the highest quality audio and lets you control the soundbar's volume using just your standard TCL TV remote—no extra remote needed! 2. Alternative: Optical Digital Connection If your TV does not support HDMI ARC, the optical port is a robust, high-quality digital alternative. Please check the back of your specific TCL model to confirm you have either an HDMI ARC or an Optical port. With either one, you are all set to enjoy immersive sound! For a visual walkthrough of the connection process, you can view our detailed guide here: https://helpguide.sony.net/ht/2089/v1/en/contents/011_Connecting_to_a_TV_2089.html We look forward to welcoming you to the Sony family!
