[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I tried out the Sony Bravia Theater Quad, I was impressed with how immersive it made my movie nights feel. The four thin, wall-mountable speakers were simple to set up and didn't take over the room. Theres a real sense of depth, as if sound was coming from all around me. Even without a center speaker, dialogue was crisp and clear because the system synced up with my Bravia TV's speakers.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These speakers are just phenomenal, the surround sound performance is out of this world. It immerses you into your media and the app allows to extract more audio from any source, even Netflix, HBO, etc. I was able to easily connect the system together and manage it all on the app. The Bluetooth connection and Spotify works well. The clarity in the sound is amazing.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The sound is amazing. Honestly, we did not know what to expect, but this was one of the best technologies we have implemented into our home. We have been using this nonstop for movie nights and even when casting music or medication sounds from our phones. Definitely worth the price if you are looking to upgrade your home and cast movies/music often.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall was very pleased with the easy installation and setup. Husband had no problems setting it up within few minutes and Sony app was simple to use as well. The 360 Sound quality was amazing for watching movies! Only con is the wires do require some work to hide if you decide to mount them to the wall like we did.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the best Sony quad home theater speakers! Literally just WOW!! The TV sounds so pure, the speakers are so stylish and connectivity was so easy they are compact has a lot of features!\nIt's a great speaker set for parties or in case family and friends come over, great value!

Like the headline says, this is far and away the best home theater sound system I've ever owned. Setup is a cinch, it sounds great out of the box and it looks great. No center channel was a big selling point for me. I can keep the space on my entertainment center clean and clear.

Thoroughly impressed with sound this unit produces, easily one of the best "sound Bar" systems I have ever owned. Easy set-up, easy installation and east room calibration features. DEFINETLY recommend this Sony subwoofer add on for that thumping BASS!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very cool!!! I was amazed at the sound quality makes movie night 1000 times better! I feel like the product is also aesthetically pleasing as well. All speakers connect well together.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband finally made some time to connect these speakers. It was a bit of a hassle having to download the app/create login but the setup was fairly simpler after that. The app easily located speakers via Bluetooth and synced up after few tries. We are interested in purchasing the subwoofer/bass that goes with this for more of a theater like sound effect in the near future. Speakers look very sleek! It hasn't replaced our current beloved soundbar but hoping once we get the bass setup, we will primarily use as our only surround sound. Would recommend anyone looking for modern looking, clear sounding speakers to try out

Great theatre sound system for Dolby Atmos and others.

Rewelacja

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm quite satisfied. The sound quality is excellent, clear and crisp. However, I find the bass lacking depth, which I was expecting. Other than that, the design is stylish and the setup was easy. A great choice for those who appreciate quality sound, but not ideal for deep bass enthusiasts.

Great fluidity and expert setup. I was wondering if i can connect 2 saw-5 sub woofers. Need official guidance pls

Let me start started that we purchased this to address frequent sound dropouts from the HT-A9 (which admittedly got better once we deactivated the 160 MHz channel on our WiFi router, but still persisted at over once per hour) - which we otherwise loved for the surreal ‘bubble of sound’ in its Dolby Atmos content rendering, but was just ok for music playback. Below are my thoughts as a home theater/dolby atmos enthusiast/ardent music consumer. \n\nAppearance: The new speaker look is highly polarizing, judging from internet AVS forums. Sony tried to come up with a more modern option and veer away from the traditional bland speaker look, and landed with boxy speakers that not everybody is enamored with. I think they look ok and they’re somewhat modern and innovative-looking. But perhaps Sony should consider consulting / hiring hardware designers to work with their engineers, so their products can look a bit more polished and pleasing to the eye. (May I suggest LoveFrom?) But right now, it is what it is, and your only options are to take it or leave it. \n7/10\n\nSet-up: Unlike the A9, you now need to download and sign up for the Sony Bravia Connect app, if you want to use your system. Of note (unlike some other reviewers have mentioned), you do not need to agree to all marketing prompts from the app to continue with set up - selecting no will still allow you to proceed to the next step. So setting up the four speakers that came with the box was pretty straightforward, until I tried to hook up the Sony SA-SW5 subwoofer we already owned with our A9. Despite factory resetting it and restarting it several times, the app would just not recognize it was available for about half a dozen restarts and re-set up attempts of the entire Quad. This was a several hours-long exercise in frustration, and the PDF manual (not included in the box) provides only generic information (‘if everything fails, reset to factory settings and restart’). Somehow, it was able to finally recognize the subwoofer on the 7th attempt, and it has remained connected to the system since. I do hope that Sony will get their act together and address these set up issues with a software update, and ensure in the future existing hardware is already updated and able to recognize and work with their new releases. \n3/10\n\nApp: Probably one of the worse apps you have ever installed on your phone. Even after the initial painstaking set up, for the first 36 hours of usage, it failed to connect to the system every time I turned it on, asking for a re-set up (thankfully it only asked to connect to the phone & the Wifi, instead of setting up and optimizing each speaker from scratch). Sadly, you can’t make any adjustments to the system without the app (the new remote has very limited functionality - you can probably put it in a drawer and forget it exists). And the only way to verify what type of audio content you are getting (Atmos vs Dolby Audio vs LCPM and how many channels) is through the app. Sony, if you are reading this, please consider showing this on the box’s screen. Thankfully, things just magically started working on day two of usage, without changing anything from our end - likely a server-side software update (have the automatic updates to on). \n3/10\n\nCenter channel sync: Unlike the HT-A9 which was able to do this wirelessly with compatible Sony Bravia TVs, this version now requires a cord (provided). I did connect it to try the sound with and without it, and I would say that it has almost no effect on the sound. Not sure it’s worth bothering with. Although, as stated earlier, it appears that our Sony A80J has not yet been updated with software to make it recognize the Quad. So who knows? Maybe it will sound better after it does. But for now, it neither improves nor worsens the center channel sound.\n5/10\n\nApple AirPlay/Spotify Connect: Just like the connection to the Wifi and the Bravia Connect app that didn’t work for the first day and a half, the Quad wouldn’t appear on the list of available AirPlay speakers on our iPhones. And then, without us having done anything different, it just started working. We haven’t been as lucky with Spotify Connect. The Quad still doesn’t appear in our Spotify accounts, unlike all other compatible speakers from Bose & Sonos we have in the house… \n5/10 \n\nOverall Sound: Overall, it sounds a little better than the HT-A9. Calibration and the 360 sound mapping worked as described, and ended up creating an even wider, more open, crisper, and more engaging sound bubble. And it should, as each speaker enclosure now comes with one additional tweeter, for a total of 4 (rather than just 3 in the HT-A9). Fidelity is up a notch. The sound feels more robust, with more presence, and the Atmos effects seem to be more precise for a more enjoyable listening experience for movies and atmos-encoded video content. Moving sound objects are more precisely located now in space around you, and their movement feels smoother. (Tes

I've had these for over a year now, and for the life of me I can't get the system to calibrate properly. The center channel is always MUCH louder than any others. I purchased these because I could use my Bravia TV as the Acoustic S-Center speaker, and anything that goes there is about 10db louder than every other speaker, no matter the mode, setting, etc.. This would be an easy solve if the app had ANY adjustments available to the consumer, but they absolutely don't allow you to touch a single setting from speaker to speaker. What a shame.

No need for a sound bar for voices coming from the screen. I have my Quad front speakers 8’ apart and it set up its own phantom center speaker. Voices from actors voices are natural and action on screen was accurate while maintaining its left and right off screen sounds. It’s just Sony’s wizardry is all I can say. I did some research and found out that the Quad does not cut off/ or deactivate its bass when adding a Subwoofer. The previous A9 system did cutoff its bass in each of its speakers when adding the subwoofer. I added the Sony smaller subwoofer the 200w AW3 and it had plenty of bass with the setting on minus 4 with the Sony Connect App. It gives me plenty of thumping power along with the bass in each speaker left engaged. The 360 sound field was totally awesome when watching movies and regular content. Sony has added a mid tweeter in each of the Quads 4 speakers making it a total of 16 speakers. The A9 had only 12 speakers and with each bass speaker deactivated when adding a subwoofer it would go to down to 8 total. Please don’t try this system in a store it would be injustice to it. It’s not be as accurate like it would be in your home. “Buy it and you’ll love it like I do.”❤️ Read More

I recently added the Sony QUAD sound system to my setup, and it has exceeded expectations in every way. The sound quality is outstanding—clear dialogue, rich mids, and deep, controlled bass that fills the room without distortion. Whether watching movies, sports, or streaming music, the audio feels immersive and well-balanced.\nWhat truly stands out is the 360 Spatial Sound Mapping. It creates a wide, enveloping soundstage that makes you feel like you’re in the center of the action, even without rear speakers placed behind you. Dolby Atmos and DTS support add another level of realism, especially for movies and high-quality streaming content.\nThe design is sleek and modern, blending seamlessly into the room without being intrusive. Setup was straightforward, and integration with my Sony TV was seamless—everything worked together smoothly with minimal configuration.\nOverall, the Sony QUAD delivers premium sound performance that justifies its price. It significantly enhances the viewing experience and feels like a true upgrade to a home theater system. Highly recommended for anyone looking for powerful, immersive audio with Sony-level quality and refinement.

Ok. Here’s the deal. WOW! The Sony HT-A9 is an amazing system. I had been looking for a sound bar system for quite some time. I was a bit hesitant about the systems because I wasn’t really sure I wanted to commit to an actual sound bar. Then this came along. This is classed in the same group without being a conventional “sound bar.” Most of the higher end systems are not cheap. I was lucky to score a really good deal, but in all honesty after using it, I would even recommend it for a higher price. Most of the reviews I read recommended getting the subwoofer with it and it IS impressive, but even as a stand alone, it does not disappoint. So if the budget doesn’t allow for the cost right out of the box, you can always upgrade later without being disappointed about not having it (yet...LOL). Also, it was very easy to setup. I am using it with a Sony XBR55930E and I really love that model. I know there are many newer models, but I am nowhere near ready to upgrade. The point I’m trying to make here is that it connected without any problems and I’m really pleased with it. I’m sure you will be too. Oh, and by the way...did I say, “WOW?”

I could not believe how good this system sounds and how well it works. I previously had a Sony HTA-9, and ended up sending it back due to too many dropouts. This system has had 0 dropouts and sounds considerably better than the HTA-9. Of course you can get a better sounding system if you built a traditional stereo system, but this system offers room filling immersion like I’ve never heard. It really shows its muscle with Atmos content and does well with other content. What a great purchase!I could not believe how good this system sounds and how well it works.

Works great! Not one drop out, but I do need to add the sub. I have small living room and does produce okay bass but the sub will add more depth, that will be next purchase. I had a Vizio elevate sound bar and the sound separation was lacking, and the subwoofer bass was over powering for regular TV. Watching the news/local TV there was always rumbling, so you would have to turn the sub volume down to lowest and then everything was tinny sounding. This price makes it a deal for what it is. If you do not want to invest in to a full blown home theater this my be the ticket for you.

Perfect set up for home theater. Excellent quality and sound. Sony great products! I love my new home theater set up: Sony quad theater and Sony Subwoofer5. Thank you Coolbeens for the excellent price you gave me for both Sony sound systems. Highly recommend seller Coolbeens!!! Perfect set up for home theater. Excellent quality and sound.

Come on... You can't even find a decent dedicated center channel in this Quad/Soundbar to deliver accurate, crystal-clear dialogue/vocals – and like, 80% of movies and shows are all about dialogue, right? So shouldn't it be like, a basic requirement for any Soundbar or Quad to have a dedicated center channel/speaker? But nope 🙄, instead these things come with PHANTOM ("pseudo speakers"). Do we really need to "enjoy" this artificial, pseudo audio/sound/dialogue from PHANTOMS 🤪 – all illusion 😅, hypnotic 😂😂, black magic... 🤣🤣🤣

Don’t mistake my review for a bad one because it isn’t meant to be! These speakers both sound and look aesthetically pleasing to the eyes, especially for someone like me that thinks speakers add to the aesthetic of a living room space. Everyone that has come to my house has seen them mounted on my living room walls and asked me about them to get one for themselves because of how flush to the wall they sit unlike others in the market! The only reason I omitted one star is because the power cable is very clearly visible and sticks out like a sore thumb if these are mounted on the wall! Sony could have easily rectified this by providing a plate that goes below it for people that want to mount it and don’t want the cable visible but I guess someone was being lazy at Sony and couldn’t care less! Also, if this helps you to decide, mine are connected to an LG G4 and they all work harmoniously and you don’t necessarily need a Sony tv to go with them!

Everything sounds great. From music to Movies. One of the best Dolby Atmos experience you can have without ceiling mounted speakers. If you didn’t know, you would think it has 7 to 12 speakers. If you never had a dedicated Subwoofer, you might be able to get away with out adding one. Otherwise I highly recommend adding the SA-SW5 SUB. Setting it up is a breeze. Just place the speakers where you want plug the control box in, power it on.. it just sets everything up with in 5 mins.

I bought this to replace a Sony soundbar and it is an improvement. Sound quality is very good when watching content on streaming TV and such i.e. surround sound. Atmos immersion is excellent but that is limited by the content you are watching.\nSimple to set-up, the app is good.\nThe plus is I bought this on sale and an open box. UPS damaged the original item, I had to repurchase a new one and the price matched the original price - good deal!

Amazing system… it’s like the earphone with all the special effects/sound filters but for a home theater.\n\nBut first of all, if you have a 5000+ system, don’t expect this is have warmer sound or stronger bass. What the system excels in is the special effects & sound positioning. \n\nThere is nothing that’s going to touch this in the price range till the new Yamaha sound system is on the market.
