Sony - Theater Bar 9 with Speakers + Bass Module

Sony bar 9 sounds amazing!

If you want to avoid compatibility problems and still have a great soundbar take Bar 9 +RS5+Sub. Also you will get some new menus on-screen. If you want a great soundbar with the best value for the price take Samsung q990 serie. But you may experience some connection issues and you won't get some new on-screen menus. Both sound great.

Not me but but I have read so many stories about connection issues with Sony TV and other brand soundbars. I also don't get why people want to mix brands expect for the price. OK Sony is expansive but Bar9 sounds great with Bravia 7 (my config as well).

Accoustic Sync makes almost no difference for the sound (I own Bravia 7 and Bar 9+rears). It makes sense for good integration. Same remote control, settings on TV screen and no problem of connexion. Everything works perfectly together. But for the sound it doesn't bring much, really.

Bye the way Bar 9 sounds great, not sure Sonos (which has a shit app) or Samsung sound better... I think they all sound great.

Sony Bar 9. Very clear dialogues as well.

Sony Bar 9 +RS5 would complete the set up! It sounds great.

Sony Bar 9 is great you know 😉

Bar 9 sounds great to me. Clear and clean. Without Sub the bass is quite good from the Bar I think. Accoustic Synd doesn't bring much (but I still have it on ON all the time) and RS5 sound also really good and bring a lot to the surround sound (of course). Also you will get extra on-screen menus with Bar9. Then you don't need the app all the time. It's just a pity that Sony's products are so expansive. But Bar9 sounds really good 😉

Theater Bar9+RS5 (paired with Bravia 7) here. I tried Samsung q990c and it was very good (of course for the price...) but don't forget Samsung is shit company that has bricked their own Bar with an update... Ask these people if it was good value for the price they paid... Sonos is also in deep shit with their app now. Sony sounds great and fits well with Sony TV. The only problem is that there is the Sony tax. But if you can get Bar9 with a discount I would choose it. The sound is clean and clear! Surround and atmos sound great as well with RS5. And music sounds also good for a Bar. I don't know why but rtings is wrong with some notes. Some testing are just irrelevant and don't match with the reality.

Bar 9 with the mode DTS neural-X sounds great for music! Very impressive I think. It makes a kind of surround sound with stereo music.

What about the Samsung 990 did you not prefer? I got a Sony Bar 8 and SW3 sub and was really let down with the 8’s boxy mid range character and the SW3’s punchy bass that really kicked in on loud sources which made it sound like there was a huge dip in the low-mids with the sub not “riding the lows” throughout the source. Then I replaced that setup with a Bar 9 and SW5 (Best Buy had a sale on all these models). Noticeably fuller sound from the 9 and the SW5 has a more graceful bass presence. The dialogue is *crisp* and there was a dramatic lack of that hollow boxy midrange, maybe due to the larger bar enclosure - my soundbar experience has been to expect it to sound like it’s a plastic rectangle no matter the brand. Ppl seem to love the Samsung 990D but that bundle is more than I paid for the Sony on sale and I don’t think it’s going to blow my mind…

I bought the Bar 8 and SW3 - the bar sounded so thin and hollow, the sub only kicked in at what seemed like a certain threshold so there was always what sounded like a huge gap in the freq response of no low mids, then a boom or rumble during louder instances. The ppl who like that sub call it “punchy” but I call it uneven. Got the Bar 9 and SW5. Much better. The sub is way more even and more natural across the lows. The actual bar is decent. Returned the 8 and SW3 and kept the higher models. $600 off on sale otherwise I wouldn’t have. I didn’t like the look of the Samsung at all, but that was important enough to me to not consider it. I thought the Sonos sounded the best, so full just on its own and then the sub added to it, while the Sony bars are so anemic and *require* a sub. I primarily game on my Bravia 8 so I opted to keep it in the Sony ecosystem and have that extra 2.1 port since all my HDMIs are used now - just couldn’t do that conveniently with the Sonos. No real customization of the settings but I’m happy with it. Hope that helps a little, at least knocking the 8 out the list.

Sorry but q990d or sony theater bar 9 with surrounds and sub is the best. Ofcourse you get like nakamitchi dragon but it'll be an overkill and you won't like it 3 days later. It'll be a dead in vestment. So, q990d or q930d is the best you can actually get for the price. Don't worry about the bass it's an 8 inch sub with perfect balance. It'll shake and break your house glasses. It's still number 1 and can't go wrong with it. If you budget is in millions tho then I suggest polk of klipsch individual components and av receivers. Or those house sized stereo pair of column speakers from the likes of kharma or nautilus.

I buy Sony Bar 9 with rears and sub should come next week 1300€🥹

But it was a very good deal in germany by HEIMKINORAUM now its 1999€….

Samsung q990c I have this and it's very good in atmos. After seeing the prices at JBL or Sonos too... Sony bar 9 can be

From my experience of owning a bar 9, at that value you cannot beat it. You will want to get the sw5 subwoofer if you want good bass. By itself the bass is okay. In the future for surrounds definitely go for the rs5. While it may seem like I’m just only recommending the best they have you really lose out on a lot by not matching up the their best bar with the upgraded components.

550 for the Sony is a good price. You can upgrade it in the future with a sub and rears.

Theatre Bar 9 mate, I have it and it's a beast and works seamlessly with my Bravia 9. Add in the wireless subs and rears and it is a fantastic plug and play system which is 'relatively' cheap. Going for a Sony SB will also allow you to use the Centre Sync too which admittedly is sometimes a bit off depending on contact but still good when it works properly.

Ja Sony är fina grejer! A7000 är utgående modell så finns bara på Amazon vad jag sett. Annars är det Theatre bar 9 som är deras flagship nu 👍

The Bar 9 and SW5 will run circles around a couple HomePods
