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.

It seems you all didn't try quads and Sub or Bar 9+RS5 + Sub. You wouldn't say Sony is not top notch for soundbars.

Why not Bar 9? Paired with SW7, SW3, SW5 and RS5? RS5 makes the difference!

I bought it and it sounds good enough for my room. If you don't need huge boomy basses to shake your entire house you should definitely check SW3 or SW7. I thought SW7 would lack power but I have to say that I am surprised (for the price its really a good value). The Sony tax is too big on SW5 I think. The Bar9 itself is already quite powerful. The Sub brings more depth but that's the rear speakers RS5 that really make the difference and bring the Sony bubble. Hope it helps.

I had the Bar9 alone for a year first and I have to say that it has already good basses on its own. But of course not very boomy and it will not shake your house but it was already quite good. Why not buy the Theater Sub 7? It brings a bite more boom Hitout shaking everything and it's not very expansive (at least here in Belgium).

Q990 serie is louder but I still think Bar 9 is cleaner. In the shop the Sony sound mapping isn't working good. At home the sound mapping really makes the difference. The Samsung has good speakers throwing sound to you while the Sony has a great algorithm. And I can assure you that music sounds great on the Bar 9. RS5 are also great rear speakers. The SW5 works better with Bar 9 compared to S2000 which is a bad soudbar. Sound is not just about how deep a Sub goes you know... Of course Samsung wins the value for price but Bar9+Sub+RS5 sounds gorgeous with music and movie.

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

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.

I have 85 Bravia 9 with Theatre Bar 9 the wirelesss rears and bigger sub. Whilst I have posted often about the TV upgrade being a case of diminishing returns, I can't fault my sound set up. Obviously it's not a true 5.1 or even 2.1 system but it does sound incredible and for a plug and play option does what it's supposed to perfectly, although it is on the pricier end of soundbar set ups.

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

This is the way. I have these and the sound bar 9. It definitely makes a huge difference overall. And watching movies is amazing to me. But that’s my personal opinion

Hola, yo tengo la Sony Bravia 8A con el sistema de sonido Bar 9 con el SA-SW5 y los  SA-RS5. Llevo 1 año con el sistema de sonido con otra tele Sony bravia antigua y sinceramente volveria a comprarlo, sin duda alguna. Obviamente si compras un sonido de una marca más especializada en sonido, sera mucho mejor pero mucho más caro.

the bar 9 setup you have is more than enough. yes it can get better, but you're at the place where getting a bit better is much more expensive.

I got a Sony Theatre Bar 9 because I like Sony integration. I like it. Got it on sale.

I have a Bravia 7 with Sony Theatre Bar 9 and mine sounds good. Have the same settings as you too. Weird.
