    I purchased these speakers to add to the existing sound bar to bring more sound into a large room. Did not work. Very little volume from the speakers. I need to explore more options to increase the sound level.

    While pricey, these pair well with the soundbar and sub. They are way overpriced, but with a Sony TV it's simple and for the room it's in it worked great for us. Wish they played a bit louder.

      Hi Jason,

      We're so glad to hear that adding this rear speakers to your Sony HT-A3000 Soundbar improves your overall home theater experience. To ensure that you are getting the most out of your HT-A3000, make sure to run Sound Field Optimization so that the soundbar can calibrate its performance to your environment, and that it sounds like it was engineered to be in your room.

      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.
      • 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.

      If there is no sound or the sound from the Rear speaker is too low, you may also find this link helpful: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/sound-bars-home-theater-systems-sound-bars-surround-speakers/sa-rs3s/articles/00274538
