Sony has been well known for its home entertainment products; Playstation, TVs, and home theatre sounds systems. The HT-A9 is a reasonably robust system that doesn’t replace a full-fledged speaker setup, but when you need something simple, easy, and performs almost as well, you should check this out!

Deals for Days. Big home savings are happening now.
£1600 for the speakers and £600 for the sub, no thanks.
Starting to wonder: Why don't the cables to the speakers have a ground prong? My rear speakers aren't outputting sound via bluetooth, and very quiet on hdmi. When I leaned in to listen my earrings got zapped… might be partly due to the cold, dry weather. Hopefully, the static buildup isn't frying parts.
Linus Linus. Please do a 1 year follow up review.
Not me watching a year later when this thing caused the entire wifi network to break.
5:40 pivot, pivot! PIVOT!!
1) This is not a soundbar and should not be called so
2) This costs ~2.5x of Samsung hw q990b, which is a big.
Stupid video…😒
After the "pivot" friends reference I was hoping they'd do the Joey-Chandler couch too. Hehe
What is the demo video you are watching 13:39?
Except it's $2k without a sub…
I wonder how this stacks up against a full sonos arc + sub and one SL's for rears setup, as this is my setup, but if better I'm very interested in getting this paired with their recent QD OLED for a centre speaker too.
What do you guys think between this and the AT-7000 with sub and rear speakers?
Is linus Canadian ?
Should ignore the recommendation as this video is sponsored by Sony… These speakers have so many problems… Linus is doing his fans a great disservice
I never trust when a reviewer is given stuff for their home.
Nice – Sony HT-A9 still not available in Australia 🙁
Just curious. Can you pair this with the Sony a7000?
8:50 yup downstairs we saw the box lmao
So, has VRR been rolled out to it yet?
GOD Jake's laugh is the best thing ever
thats true surround not virtuel exept the center plus it has height speakers on top of the surround module virtuel center on stuff like that is amazing woofer and tweeter on surronds thats amazing so a top full range driver nice the rears are not virtual just the center its still true atmos only streaming lthat is stereo is fake atmos like on smartphones or any upmixing or home theaters with ony 2 towers and dolby atmos moduluels jus t two of them ore nice tvs with two speokers that say dolby atmos are what i call virtual the center is virtual in this though just not the rears i guarenteed if you put your ears up to the rears on a dolby atmos mix there will be no vocals bleeding thorugh on the moviee game tv show etc its actually sad such a great place was going out of buisness
3000+ for a sound system. People think everyone is rich af
Love the Friends reference with "Pivot" 😀
One big limitation I see is that even with SW500, I am not able to pump up all the wattage at 80% volume.
I have many songs with good lower base, and i am also using the equaliser in the Amazon music to max the base. But even then, I can see max 30% utilisation of the woofer.
I think in the next firmware update, the amplification factor for the base should be increased by 3x.
is there a totally bluetooth speaker system or soundbar that you you can just power with outlet anywhere and just bluetooth it?
is this totally wireless ? I don't want to have wire going to tv or wires from tv to speakers I know iI have to power speakers but can put then in different outlets for that with short power cord .Will this work for me ? I didn't catch if any wires needed to be connected
Linus: "I definitely hear something over there, but there's nothing over there."
If Linus having these impressions, what more of me who is a less techy guy. I would definitely mind blown here. Wow!
Linus Drop Tips
Bout 5k for a TV with speakers. Nice
The only thing I thought during the moving of the couche:
PIVOT!
Yeah with headphone this video doesnt sound like anything but mono except their voices eh
can i use a big bluetooth speaker with aux input as center channel by connecting it to the S-center out port on the A9 control module??
im seeing the comparison to a soundbar. If something cost 2000 bucks before subwoofer I'd expect a better comparison. This item better be lightyears better than a soundbar. lets compare shelby mustangs to scooters?
Nice promo. Now checking out Sonos lol
Couches.
small speakers? nah. enough for utube yes
I bought the HTA9 system a few months back and it’s an amazing system. Far better than the flagship Samsung Harman/Kardon soundbar that I was using before. I’t like night and day. Feels like a 12 speaker setup. Just close your eyes and listen. Amazing!
How does this compare to the SVS system linus has now?
What was playing at 15:08?
Where I can find that demo video?
As i dont own a tv is there a chance to listen to those on my laptop without losing sourround sound??
0:22 I love that Linus considers his employees as just friends. Must be a great boss.
Why does he keep calling his wife Ivan?
Would be cool to be able to add wired sub. I already have a sub and it sucks that you have to buy a wireless sub that will stand right next to the box anyway. If they let you add a wired center speaker why don’t they let you add a wired sub?
Yea for 2 grand it better service me afterward.
I thought they were going to try with the TV as centre
