      @@lifeevent88 just received my A9 the other day. It sounds very good, definitely made for movies and it’s OK for music. This is a great system, even without the subwoofer. I prefer black as well, but the color nice, looks elegant in person. No one would listen to this system and walk away disappointed. Have a full Kef atmos system, the Kef is obviously better, but not in every way, the A9 does a much better job with the surround & Atmos effects. Bigger speakers usually sound better if all else is equal, and one area all these sound bar speaker systems lack is in the mid level. The ease of the A9 makes it a no brainer for anyone that cares more about the content then just buying better equipment.

    Hi, I have a question about rear speakers position. I have a large room in a shape of letter L that combines living room, dining room and a kitchen. How important it is to for the rear speakers to be at the same distance from the TV? Currently one is in the middle of the room, right behind the sofa, let say 3,5 meters from TV, and the other is further away, in a corner 7 meters away from the TV. Is that a problem? And if so, it better to put both of them at the middle of the room and create the sound bubble just arount sofa, or to put them both furher back?

    For the projector setup I will connect the box opposite to the wall where film's are projected.
    I will use an HDMI switch matrix to mux all sources (SAT/TV/BR/Fire stick) to the A9.
    Will it be ok without using eARC? No sound lag over the video?
    For the speakers, Is it ok if they stand over a sofa? is that ok if not on a hard surface?

    • @SonySupportUSA
      @SonySupportUSA  2 роки тому +2

      Hi Alexandre Esquenet, thank you for reaching out to us. The speaker system is compatible with both eARC and ARC. ARC is the function that sends TV sound to an AV device such as the speaker system from the TV’s HDMI jack. eARC is an extension of ARC and enables transmission of the object audio and multi-channel LPCM content that cannot be transmitted with ARC. In case the sound from this speaker system lags behind the image, we recommend following these steps:
      - Set the adjustment value of the delay between the picture and sound to 0 msec if it is set to the range between 25 msec and 300 msec. A time gap between the sound and picture may occur depending on the sound source.
      - If your TV has a function that delays the image, use it for adjustment. For details, refer to the operating instructions of your TV.
      Do not place the speaker system near heat sources or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, or mechanical shock. Also, use caution when placing the speaker system on a surface that has been specially treated (with wax, oil, polish, etc.), as staining or discoloration of the surface may result.
      Please check the manual for more details: support.am.sony.com/release/Manual_5025229121.pdf

      I hope this helps.

    You'd have a lot more customers if you patched the system so that you can link to any brand wireless sub.
    Imagine this linked to a REL S510 via their wireless add on.
    For me the system looks great, but the subs are not quite there to my taste, I need tighter bass with more extension with a much faster response.
    The option of a separate centre channel would be great also.

    • @SonySupportUSA
      @SonySupportUSA  2 роки тому +1

      Hi Jim, Good question! The HT-A9 features 360 Spatial Sound Mapping that adapts to your environment and Sound Field Optimization that calibrates the sound to your room for a listening environment which seems to expand beyond the walls. So, it should not have any effect when placed in a room with a slightly vaulted ceiling. Hope this helps! -Sam

The hdmi 2.1 cable into Projectors HDMI (eARC) port. Will this give me full access to Dolby atmos and other audio formats?

      Hi
      Robert S,
      Thank you for the inquiry! The HT-A9 supports object-based audio formats such as Dolby Atmos and DTS:X as well as HDR video formats such as HDR10, HLG, and Dolby Vision. If the projector is compatible with eARC, you can
      output the high quality sound by connecting an AV device to the HDMI IN jack on the projector. In this case, enable the eARC function of the projector. See page 18 from this link for more details.

    Hey I'm not sure about the positioning of the 4 speakers.
    I put the two front speakers close to the TV. Or should I put them in the corners of the room, so further away from the TV?
    And for the rear speakers: My bed is on the wall, so they are basically just 10 centimeters behind my head. Should they be closer to my head or further apart?
    Should all 4 speakers perfectly face me (so, rotate them slightly in) or should the right speakers face each other and the left speakers face each other?

    • @SonySupportUSA
      @SonySupportUSA  2 роки тому

      Hi Kortesch,
      Thank you for the inquiry! Bring the speakers closer if the speakers are installed at a distance far away from each other. Install the speakers with a distance of more than 50 cm (19 3/4 in). If the distance between speakers is too close, Sound Field Optimization cannot be performed properly. You may find these links helpful for the recommended installation position of the speakers.

    • @SonySupportUSA
      @SonySupportUSA  2 роки тому +1

      Hi Tafhim, thanks for your inquiry! When you set the Link Mode of your HTA9 to AUTO, the SA-SW5 should automatically connect to the home theater system when you press the power button.

      You can also perform a manual connection. Using the remote control of your HTA9, please refer to the steps below:

      1. Press HOME
      2. Select [Setup] - [Advanced Settings] on the home menu.
      3. Select [Speaker Settings] - [Wireless Speaker Settings] - [Start manual linking]. The [Start manual linking] screen appears on the
      TV screen.
      4. Press LINK on the subwoofer. The power indicator of the subwoofer that had LINK pressed flashes twice repeatedly in green.
      5. Select [Start]. The manual connection starts. The connecting process appears on the TV screen. To cancel the manual connection, select [Cancel].
      6. When [Subwoofer] display [Connected], select [Finish].
      7. Press (enter). The manual connection is established and the power indicator of the subwoofer lights in green

      For more details, please refer to this link: www.sony.com/electronics/support/res/manuals/5027/39fd6e129f40f54ddd7e93d0ac626ee7/50273451M.pdf

      And with regard to speaker position, surround sound can be experienced more effectively by installing the 4 speakers to surround your listening position and installing the front speakers on both sides of the TV. There is also a Sound Field Optimization feature which is part of the initial setup that will analyze the correct sound measurement between the speaker and the user. For more information about the speaker installation, please refer to the link below:

      yes it can, but you may experience drop outs depending on the exact positioning. The best way would be to try it out and see how it goes, there are a few variable's that can affect the connection. Such as being to close to the wireless router.

    what does 2:40 mean exactly? connect another HDMI device like a blu ray player or a game console to the control box. how does the TV receive video from such devices if said devices are connected to the HT A9 control box? PS5 has only 1 HDMI port.

Many users around the world hv voices out this issue in their product review section. The conclusion is the system work okay for a while. Then the problem arise back. Then need to do recalibration, reset RF again.
    Currently I believe Sony has stopped production for a while. That's why no stock everywhere include big nation like US, Canada, India.

I have them and they work fantastically well thanks. Worth every cent I paid for them. They are literally a new type of speaker/sound system. Teething problems are to be expected with new tech. Hardly unusual. As are higher prices (think OLED and their high prices and burn in problems). So long as any problems are addressed, acknowledged (hence the purpose of this video) and anyone can return or exchange a product not working then it's not the end of the world.

      the control box is capable of passing through video (upto 8k 60Hz) so it sends the audio to HT A9 speakers and the video to the destination device (tv, projector, monitor).
      Hope this helps.
