Pricey but great soundbar.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I replace an old Polk Audio 2.1 sound bar with the Sony A5000. The Polk was connected using the optical out. There was a noticeable lag with the TV sound on at the same time as the Polk soundbar. I wanted a soundbar that would work along with the Sony Bravia XR55A80L. The A5000 works perfectly with the TV now. It comes on when the TV comes on and works in sync with the TV's built in speakers. It sounds great. I did watch some videos on how to tailor the sound to my taste. I suggest doing that as there are some settings not readily apparent. When I first started using it right out of the box I had to turn it up to about 30 for the volume. After the tweaking I usually have it set at around 20 now. The bass is good for a soundbar alone but not as good as the Polk soundbar which I had 2 Polk subwoofers connected to. I will eventually get a subwoofer to go with the A5000. The presence in the room while watching TV is better than just the TV alone. That is saying something because the sound of the A80L TV is very good. I'm expecting delivery of Sony SA-RS5 rear speakers tomorrow. I'm looking forward to adding them to the A5000.

Posted .Hi wang2,
This is not the experience that we want you to have. This isn't normally the case with the HTA5000. If the unit is not turning on, make sure that the AC power cord (mains lead) is connected securely. Disconnect the AC power cord (mains lead) from the wall outlet (mains), and then reconnect after several minutes.

Beast of a soundbar
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have had a variety of soundbars through the years as well as having a full blown traditional theater set-up with a standalone receiver etc. So while I am not audiophile I have a broad range of experience with the different options that are available on the market. I am using this with a 65" LG OLED with all the Dolby Atmos and Dolby Vision bells and whistles. I am upgrading from a Samsung HW-Q70R which at the time was a solid Dolby Atmos equipped system, but this new Sony set-up embarrasses it. Unboxing and set-up was easy and straight forward, though the soundbar itself is a beast compared to most others I've ever had my hands on. Its longer than my old samsung and definitely heavier. I would imagine this being a result of how many additional higher quality speakers it has but also it doesn't have an external power brick so the power supply is located internal on the soundbar. I am using this with the eARC output on my LG OLED and it works fantastic. This soundbar also has an extra HDMI port built in so it can passthrough media up to 4K/120hz or 8K, so it'll work with your PS5 or xbox Series X. I am not using the passthrough functionality and it still always recognizes Dolby Atmos/Vision content and appropriately changes settings. Sound quality is fantastic with this and is hands down the best soundbar experience ive ever had. This thing supports Hi-Res audio if you subscribe to Tidal or Amazon Music Premium, as well as Dolby Atmos and DTS:X. It does some trick stuff with the speakers, which generally just seems like a gimmick but genuinely seems to work in this sound bar. They have upward firing speakers, speakers that fire out the sides, and it has its own subwoofer. From there you can even add an external subwoofer and rear speakers (which I have) for an even better surround sound experience. Out of the box its still a solid package with plenty of punch, I generally only listen to it around 1/4 volume, sounds great on everything from Netflix to gaming on my PS5. If you are looking for a high quality experience right out of the box with easy connectivity and minimal set-up this is a great option. Soundbars have come a long ways since they originally started popping up on the market and this is the first unit at this price point that actually seems "worth it". So for those that are still using the built in speakers on their TV and are looking for a premium sound experience that can be upgraded with external subwoofer and wireless rear speakers all with extremely friendly set-up then this is a great option for you to consider.

Posted .Hi Alex,
Amazing! We're glad that you like the sound quality of the soundbar and had an easy time setting it up. The HT-A5000 has 5.1.2 channels and X-Balanced speaker units minimize distortion while the up-firing speakers and beam tweeters fill the room to give an ultra-immersive listening experience. Built-in subwoofers provide an additional boost to low end frequencies. Vertical Surround Engine and S-Force Pro Front Surround creates immersive sound from all around, while Dolby Atmos® and DTS:X® lend a more realistic, multi-dimensional sound to your content. Thanks for choosing Sony!

HUGE AUDIO ENHANCEMENT
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The HT-A5000 Sounder was a MASSIVE upgrade that continuously has blown me away (all pun intended). After learning that I had the opportunity to review this soundbar, I immediately went to best buy to purchase a brand new Sony Bravia XR X90J TV which I used to review. Since this isn't a review for the TV I will just say this....the TV is amazing and I think you should go and buy it. The unboxing experience/setup experience. Unboxing the soundbar was extremely easy and seamless to unbox. Everything was well packaged and organized. It took me roughly 5 minutes to unbox and plug/setup the soundbar. The thing that impressed me the most was actually how quickly the soundbar paired to my Sony Bravia TV. It immediately recognized it and started the pairing process and spatial audio process. I plugged in my rear speakers and subwoofer and the Bravia software immediately recognized each product and included these in set up. This was incredible to me and worked exceptionally well. The other thing that I really love about the pairing; The soundbar will switch from TV output to soundbar output immediately upon turn on and its extremely easy to switch back to the TV. The software is intelligent enough to tell you at the bottom of the screen that it is doing so...I love that. The Sound: The sound that this product offers is amazing. It can get exceptionally loud and will not sound tiny. When watching a Dolby Atmos movie the sound quality is impressive. It is a massive upgrade for anyones viewing experience. I love how well the rear speakers and subwoofer pair with the soundbar and the experience is multiplied. I do have one minor complaint with the soundbar (and it may be because I haven't figured out how to do it yet). The soundbar will not indicate when Atmos is being utilized. Overall: I would rate the soundbar a 9.5/10. It really is amazing and I think it is a must buy for anyone who wants to enhance their TV viewing experience.

An immersive sound
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.TV: Sony XBR-75X850D Wireless Rear Speaker: RS3S Soundbar: Sony HTA5000 Wireless Subwoofer: SW3 Apple TV 4K 2021 Let me start by explaining my previous set up. I have a 4 or 5 years old Sony Bravia 4K TV that’s connected to Yamaha 5.1 channel system. This model allowed me to place the rear speakers in the front, and supposedly created the 5.1 surround system. It was not. So when I start setting up this soundbar, I really have no baseline standard. But let me start by saying that setting up this soundbar is very easy. Maybe the fact that I also have a Sony TV helps. Originally, I connected the soundbar to TV HDMI ARC and connected Apple TV 4K 2021 model directly to my TV. This is a not an ideal set up because I learned that I needed an eARC HDMI connection to take advantage of Apple TV Dolby Atmos/Dolby Vision feature, which unfortunately, my old TV doesn’t have. Reading the manual again, I figured out that it is possible to connect my Apple TV directly to the soundbar to take the full advantage of the speaker. Unfortunately, the soundbar only has one more extra HDMI, which left me with no choice except to connect my 4K player directly to the TV – again, not ideal. I really wish this soundbar has more than one extra HDMI so I can connect more devices directly into it. So let’s dive in to the sound itself. The soundbar is equipped with up firing speakers and beam tweeters, together with built-in subwoofer. Trying out the dolby vision and the 360 reality audio (made specifically by Sony) for the first time directly from the speaker, I could hear the sound being projected all around me. It was a very impressive, big sound from a soundbar measuring at 47 ¾ x 2 ¾ and 5 5/8 inch. However, adding Sony SW3 subwoofer and 2 Sony wireless RS3S rear speakers create an even bigger, all-encompassing surround sound that you don’t usually get from a soundbar. Playing Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom scene where the dinosaurs were running away from the volcano eruption was quite an immersive experience. I also enjoyed the sound of racing cars coming from my left and right during the racing scene in Ford v Ferrari. And to be honest, even when playing out the scene from Interstellar from the 4K player connected directly to the TV, I could feel my heart racing and still jumped at several “scary” scenes involving explosion and space travels. This is a “small” speaker that is ready to compete with “big” speakers. Listening and watching these movies put me right at the center of the action itself. And that’s probably the best way to describe it. It’s like you are in this enclosed space where the sound is coming at you from all directions. It’s pretty impressed. I also got the chance to try out Amazon 360 reality audio. While impressive in sound, I am more impressed with the HD sound from the likes of Taylor Swift and The Weeknd album (which is supposed to be playing in Dolby Atmos- not 360 reality audio). Playing Marjorie from Evermore album, I could feel my hair standing up because it felt like I was “inside” the song. All the instruments and her voice were all around me. It was quite impressive. Unfortunately, this sound is only available if you have Amazon HD, Deezer, Nugs.Net and Tidal. No Apple Music, although you can still use Airplay with this speaker. You also have Bluetooth and WIFi options to connect multiple devices to this soundbar. You can connect to Google or Alexa devices to this speaker to control your home devices. The speaker is also able to connect to Apple devices using Airplay2. While airplay connection is necessary for people who have Apple products, playing music from Amazon HD (if you have that subscription) is the way to go to fully experience the HD or 360 sounds. While the soundbar itself maybe enough to experience a full immersive sound, consider at least getting subwoofer and possible the rear speaker. Because of the room where we place our TV, which is not enclosed in 4 walls, adding the additional subwoofer and rear speakers really elevate the sound even more. But if budget is one of the factors, the soundbar by itself will give you an impressive sound for your home entertainment. 4 Stars for the limited direct HDMI connections to the subwoofer.

Good Sound, Not Great
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not great sound, but good. I don't mean this negatively either. SETUP: Plug in your HDMI cable, then plug in the power cord, then plug in your television. Turn on your tv and follow the onscreen prompts. Set up appears on the tv screen which makes things easier. When all is done, you will want to make sure the little LCD on the soundbar says "TV." The little LCD is in the front so you can easily see it. I say the sound is only good because it is. I simply don't go for soundbars by themselves. Back in the day, LCD tvs had terrible sound, so a soundbar alone made sense. But now, TV sound is fine and I don't see much difference between the soundbar and tv sound. It's noticeable, but not worth writing home about. That's why it's good and not great. It's good, because it still does what it's supposed to do. My previous soundbar produces better soundbar sound, but that's okay because that is only for the soundbar. Also, the soundbar's Bluetooth pairs easily. That's a plus. I paired my ipod to it. One thing that is annoying about this soundbar, but not worth losing a star, is that volume up and down has such a slow and laggy response. Sheesh! Also, I have to turn the volume way up halfway just to hear sound at a normal level, BUT that might also have to do with my tv (also a Sony). You can buy the matching rear speakers and subwoofer, each separately for great sound, which is what I suggest! I recommend the soundbar, but ONLY with the rears and sub as well. I do NOT recommend it on its own.

Posted .Hi tripplesix,
Thanks for sharing your review and experience with the HTA5000 soundbar. We're glad that you were able to setup the soundbar properly. Your feedback about the sound quality, responsiveness, and volume is greatly appreciated.
When using the supplied remote, make sure to point it at the remote control sensor on the bar speaker. Remove any obstacles in the path between the remote control and the speaker system. Replace both batteries in the remote control with new ones if they are weak.
Volume may vary depending on your source content. Make sure to try multiple sources. Check that the night mode function is turned off. Press the NIGHT button on the remote. The setting does not appear on the TV screen while the TV input is selected. In this case, you can check the setting in the front panel display. You can also make dialogs clearer by pressing the VOICE button on the remote.
Aside from adding the optional subwoofer and rear speakers, you can use the sound field function of the soundbar to tailor-fit the sound quality to your needs. You may refer to this link for more information:
