Q: QuestionIs Sony A9G TV supported for S-Center out? If it is, will a cable be provided and what is the length of it?
Asked by angrysharkz.
- A:Answer Hi burntrubber, thank you for your inquiry. Unfortunately, no. Currently, the BRAVIA Acoustic Center sync mode of the HT-A9 is only compatible with 2021 BRAVIA TV models such as the Z9J series, A90J series, A80J, and X95J series. However, you can still connect your A9G TV via HDMI ARC/eARC connection to output the sound from your TV to the HT-A9. Hope this helps! -Sam

Q: QuestionThe speakers come with a 6 ft power cord but I could use a longer one let's say a 8-10 ft power cord. Can I use a third party 2-Slot Non-Polarized Power Cord? I can see some 10 ft cords online that could fit the speakers, then no need for extensions.
Asked by TrustReview.
- A:Answer Hi HomeAudioFan, Thanks for reaching out. You can buy aftermarket power cords and use it with your soundbar without any issues. Regards, -Sam

Q: QuestionGiven the upward firing speaker, I suspect placing any of the speakers in a bookshelf with a shelf within inches of the top would be problematic. Can anyone confirm this?
Asked by NiceMachine.
- A:Answer Hi RacerChris, Thank you for your inquiry. For this, we recommend not to place the speakers in a shelf or right below the ceiling so as not to block the sound output from the top of the speakers. Also, do not place metal objects near the speaker system. Wireless functions may become unstable. For more information on how to properly install the HTA9, please check our help guide link: https://helpguide.sony.net/ht/a9/v1/en/contents/TP1000029207.html I hope this helps. Regards, Carl
