Hi 3dGuru,

Thank you for telling us about your experience with your SA-RS3S Sony rear speakers. We're happy that you like the easy pairing with your soundbar. The SA-RS3S wireless rear speakers were built specifically for Sony's HT-A7000/A5000/A3000 Soundbar, making setup quick and easy. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the surround effect. To ensure sound is being output from both the speaker system and the optional rear speakers, press the IMMERSIVE AE to turn on the Immersive Audio Enhancement function, the speaker system upmixes audio signals, and sound is output from all speakers.

If you feel the volume level from the rear speaker is too low, follow the steps from the link below to troubleshoot this issue.

Note: The Rear speaker plays surround sound as part of the multi-channel sound or processed from the 2-channel sound. However, because of the characteristics of the rear speaker, the sound may be low depending on the playback source.

You can also set the speaker distance from your listening position and their output level, etc. to obtain the best possible surround sound.

Hi IrishCrusader, Thank you for taking the time to write such an in-depth review of your experience with your SA-RS3S wireless rear speakers. Your assessment is spot on!

Please note that the Rear speaker plays surround sound as part of the multi-channel sound or processed from the 2-channel sound.

Hi JoshuaS, We're happy you like most of the features of your SA-RS3S. We're so sorry if you find the rear speakers doesn't get very loud. If no sound or only a very low-level sound is heard from the optional speaker, please follow the troubleshooting steps on the link below to resolve this issue:
https://helpguide.sony.net/ht/a5000/v1/en/contents/TP1000429368.html

To ensure sound is being output from both the speaker system and the optional rear speakers, press the IMMERSIVE AE to turn on the Immersive Audio Enhancement function, the speaker system upmixes audio signals, and sound is output from all speakers. Depending on the combination of the setting of SOUND FIELD and input signal, surround sound processing may not work effectively. The surround effect may be subtle, depending on the program or disc.

To play multi-channel audio, check the digital audio output setting on the device connected to the speaker system. For details, refer to the operating instructions of the connected device. You can also set the speaker distance from your listening position and their output level, etc. to obtain the best possible surround sound.

Take movies, shows, sports, and music to the next level by adding to your cinematic surround sound atmosphere. These rear speakers automatically connect to your HT-A700, HT-A5000, or HT-A3000 soundbar right out of the box, bringing crystal-clear, room-filling sound into any home theater environment.
