||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Bravia Theater Quad is an upgrade to the Sony HT-A9. It has a greater frequency response and exceptional build quality. Though, if you are planning to upgrade, I would wait for a price drop.

BROKE THE MOLD
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great system, much better than its predecessor. It’s everything the A9 should have been at launch. BUT if you can wait for a sale, I would do just that as it’s really expensive.

Out of the box speaker won't connect.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Right front speaker won't connect! Instead of returning it to the store I sent it to Sony to get repaired. Over a month later they just sent it back to me with the same problem. It cannot be set up and Sony's customer service has been giving me the run around and now I am stuck with an over priced system that I have never got to use.

Outstanding sound from a unique design!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The SONY Bravia Theatre Quad, the follow-on to the "HT-A9" series, offers a seriously impressive sound experience with a new physical design. While continuing the central transmitter to wireless speaker architecture, the circular speakers have been replaced with a slightly smaller, "pancake" format that makes their placement more like conventional speakers, although in a much slimmer package. In spite of that smaller size each of the four speakers includes 4 drivers and that translates into some serious punch! The unpacking and setup were straight forward. The only assembly required is the attachment of your preferred mounting hardware. The box contains both a circular foot for mounting on a stand or table top and wall brackets. So, you can even mix-and-match if that best meets your needs! Your initial concerns about might be how it would affect the sound field but that is where the SONY magic starts! Somehow SONY has figured out a system where you can truly place the speakers just about anywhere (within reason) and it will figure out how to adjust the sound from each speaker to create an amazingly enveloping surround experience. My room is a torture case for most soundbar like solutions - vaulted ceilings, irregularly shaped and only enclosed on three sides! Yet, the Quad system has managed to create a very convincing bubble to my listening position! I have watched movies True HD, DTS-X, several Dolby Atmos modes, 5.1, 7.1 and even some older movies in stereo and all have been impressive. I also watched a variety of streaming content with compressed audio modes and the Quad does a very good job. I have listened to several sample HD audio music pieces (Dolby, FLAC, LCPM, Stereo) and the system sounds very good. The unit creates a very good, enveloping, sound with convincing virtual channels and has plenty of volume for my listening need. Replacing my soundbar with the single "attachment" transmitter box also gives a much cleaner and more compact look to my TV area. The unit only includes two HDMI connections and one of those is for the eARC connection so I did lose one connection compared to my previous setup but I was able to rework my connections so that everything I need still has a place to connect. As for the downsides, there are a few. The virtual center channel is not quite as robust as I would like and there is really no detailed way to tweak the individual channels. There is no equalizer capability, only a "Sound field" toggle, a "Voice" enhancement feature and a "Night" mode. These effects are effective if a bit subtle. The provided remote is extremely small, lightweight and is not back-lit. The app is straight forward but adds little additional functionality. I am hoping future FW updates may add some additional features. Finally. although the speakers do deliver a decent amount of bass, the unit would definitely benefit from the addition of a sub woofer. Unfortunately SONY chose to make that an additional purchase which seems a bit odd at this price point. All said, the Quad's abilities outweigh the negatives and I will be retiring my old premium soundbar for this one! It is definitely worth including on your short list but DO plan on spending the extra money for one of SONY's wireless subs!
