Features

Breathtaking surround sound from our flagship soundbar

Utilizing a combination of technology such as Vertical Surround Engine and S-Force Pro Front Surround, the HT-A7000 provides a wider sweet spot, enabling everyone to have the best seat in the house during a movie. Dolby Atmos®, DTS:X®, lend a more realistic, multi-dimensional sound to your content.

Perfect for any room

Sound Field Optimization calibrates the HT-A7000 to your room environment to provide the best sound. Even if you move the soundbar from the main room to a bedroom, the HT-A7000 will personalize the sound for you.

High Quality Audio

HT-A7000 is packed with class leading technology for the best sound experience. X-Balanced speaker units minimize distortion while the up-firing speakers and beam tweeters fill the room to give an ultra-immersive listening experience. Built-in subwoofers provide an additional boost to low end frequencies.

High quality video passthrough

HT-A7000 is equipped with 8K 1 and 4K/120p2 passthrough to support the latest video formats including Dolby Vision. From vivid visuals to fast-paced video game play, HT-A7000 has you covered.

Customize your ultimate sound

Two subwoofer choices (SA-SW3 and SA-SW5) and a set of rear speakers (SA-RS3S) are optional equipment designed to help you enhance the immersion of your content. The subwoofer and rear speaker accessories take out any guesswork of connecting, as they automatically pair to the HT-A7000 once they are powered on.

Effortless control and immersion with BRAVIA

With an integrated UI, home theater system settings automatically appear on the BRAVIA Quick Settings menu for easy control of sound modes, sound field and volume.4 When connected to a BRAVIA TV with Acoustic Center Sync using the supplied cable, both the soundbar and the TV become the center speaker in your home cinema system4. This enables sound to precisely match what’s on the screen for a truly immersive experience.
