    I would say this is pretty good innovation from SONY. Creating a home theatre surround sound/spatial audio experience that can be used for mobile devices (which lets face it is now how most people consume content now) and that is portable is a great idea.

    For surround sound it depends on the source as well, some movies don't use the effects speakers as much so it won't be as loud and with typical home theater setups you may find you have to turn up the surrounds even with a wired system.

  • @movitz1579

    Its a shame this doesn’t support any kind of surround sound format. If it had wifi and tidal/apple music/amazon music integration for spatial music it would be a lot closer to being worth the price.

    The USB-C port on the HT-AX7 might connect to a SUB-C hub with an auxiliary jack. Then if the HT-AX7 has a phone app ... the possibilities could be very entertaining.

    I would love this as a soundbar. I like it and the design, but I honestly can’t see someone dragging that thing outside. The design alone looks like it’s something that belongs in the home, but if it stays in the home then there are better alternatives.

    Excellent video. Cool idea for a portable speaker, but at $500, it's a hard pass. For $200 I could get a really nice JBL portable speaker and for $300 I could get a really decent sound bar....

    • @Sabundy
      @Sabundy 9 місяців тому +11

      Except neither would do what this speaker does. How would the sound bar be portable? How could you use it for mobile devices (which this speaker is made for). And how would the JBL speaker do surround sound/ spatial audio for watching movies and tv shows? All I'm saying is that you are literally comparing different things. This is not a party speaker, nor is it meant to replace the sound bar of a TV. It's a literal portable surround sound system for mobile devices (smart phones, tablets) and neither of the two things you mentioned perform that function. And lets face it.....these days most people now consume their content on mobile devices. Most people under 30 don't even own a TV. So this is a pretty damn clever idea. This is actually a product that is addressing current trends.

      @@Sabundy Also most Bluetooth speakers don't have low latency needed when watching video. Bluetooth is still lossly and having wi-fi available for Airplay 2 and Chromecast is an improvement. 3.5mm jack would give stereo, but not surround so I can understand not including it. USB audio from a computer would be better.

    This is typical Sony. Amazing, sexy, groundbreaking products with major caveats. No Aux and no way to charge the satellite speakers separate from the center speaker are total dealbreakers

      It's down to individual use case. A couple years ago I would have had no desire for this. But now that I try to hide my tech, the thought of using this along with my Samsung frame TV, when I want a little more boost for a movie, and then I can put it away when not in use, or use it in my bedroom, or even outside, that sounds great to me!

      @@maverick85 The point is, it's supposed to be a surround solution. Multichannel sound cannot be transmitted over Bluetooth, only 2 channel. Why would this be appealing to anyone when it cannot accept a multichannel signal, especially when the other spatial audio option is from Apple with which it is incompatible with?
      Hard miss, and purely in gimmick territory.
