QuestionSo these are considered "battery powered" and come with a charger/adapter...my question is does it come with TWO adapters for those of us who really don't care about the battery operation of these speakers. I just want to mount them and not think of them.
Asked 3 years ago by Timmy.
- Answer 2 adapters. One for each speaker. You can leave them plugged in all the time if you wish.

Questionnot very loud, how can you turn up sound ?
Asked 3 years ago by EmmettD.
- Answer Most soundbars that support pairing with this speaker have a "REAR" label on one of the three volume controls. You can use this to turn the audio up on specifically the rear speakers if they are enabled in the listening mode you currently have enabled. If they seem really, really quiet, you may have to perform Sound Optimization (on most Sony soundbars) with them paired, even if you already did Sound Optimization once before. Unfortunately, paired with my HT-A7000 soundbar, even on maximum volume these speakers are very quiet, however, so if you've already maxed the volume and performed optimization, they may just be too quiet for your tastes. Sony optimizes them to just help fill the room; not for a nice surround experience.

QuestionHas said ‘Coming Soon’ for a while now.. but when exactly? Also, says not available for online order & refers to Magnolia center but already talked to 2 different Magnolia locations & they know nothing. Sony Direct & even Amazon have these avail rn…
Asked 3 years ago by John.
- Answer Same boat here. The Magnolia guy I talked to said you should probably just buy it from Amazon. Not helpful because I have a bunch of expiring BestBuy certificates I want to put towards these rear surrounds! I noticed that in the past hour or two they started showing as SOLD OUT instead of COMING SOON.

QuestionAre these speakers atoms enabled not just 3d audio
Asked 2 months ago by Onkyo.
- Answer Hi Riviera, We appreciate your question. We're happy to clarify that information for you! The SA-RS5 speakers do have upward-firing speakers meant for Dolby Atmos and DTS:X content. They also take advantage of our 360 Spatial Sound Mapping technology and aid the sound bar in the process of creating a 3D sound stage in your room. For your convenience, you can find the unit's manual at the following link: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/res/manuals/5034/61411f8c33e85939b6d780f1380ab18d/50345001M.pdf Thank you for making Sony part of your purchasing consideration! Best regards, Estefany
