Sony SA-RS5 Wireless Surround Speaker for HT-A7000/5000 and 3000 Soundbars, Pair

2025-04-06T20:00:00

The sound projected around us is very impressive. I have bought a pair of 3rd party speaker stands to optimise their position.

Linked to the 5000 soundbar also with a sub woofer. Even with their volume setting on full they barely emit much sound. when playing the 360 demo they are great, but who can afford to subscribe to that.

Best "Bang" for your investment. Matched up to my Sony 65" X93L TV, Bar 8 Soundbar, SW3 Subwoofer, it takes the sound to an entire new level. Called Sony tech support with a couple questions, Michelle was amazing, very knowledgeable and helpful.

I highly recommend it. Everything is as expected. I suggest to set it up with sound bar and subwoofer. Step up and installation is soo easy

I bought this product in October 2024 & I'm absolutely bursting with joy & happiness. As usual Sony have knocked it out of the park with this premium item. I have been a loyal Sony customer for over 30 years because Sony are the very best at what they do. These speakers take your entertainment & enjoyment to the next level & more. I'm so glad that I purchased them to add to my system which includes the Bravia Theatre Bar 8000 Soundbar & SA-SW5 Wireless Subwoofer, the whole package of audio systems that is supercalifragilisticexpialidocious that create an extremely amazing experience that is absolutely second to none. Don't short change or deprive yourself from getting the very very best, you will join the ranks of an exclusive group of people who own these Sony Products. Remember if you want the BEST the very BEST buy Sony equipment.

Sound quality is brilliant although a lot quieter than I would expect, had to manually change all the sound levels to be able to hear them properly, once the sound levels had been changed they really add to the experience of the other Sony products i use

I bought them in October 2024 & they are truly amazing little pods of joy, especially when you are watching something that utilises their power. An absolutely super fantastic product indeed.

I recently brought these with the bar9 and sw5 sub. It's the perfect combination. A true home cinema experience. I love it and would highly recommend. They have been around a few years now but not really sure how they would improve them as they are so good and loud

Bought them as rear speakers for a 5.2.2 set up using a SONY AN1000 Receiver. Did not want to run cables to the rear of our family room. Everything worked out of the box and after using the auto calibration it simply sounds amazing. Apple Music tracks with Dolby Atmos (via Apple TV 4K) also sounds fantastic with these. Great buy.

Enjoyed my Sony A3000 soundbar immensely, despite it only being 3.1, but didn't feel it really filled the room, however adding a pair of Sony SA-RS5 wireless speakers to the setup changed everything. Although the effect is quite subtle, in that the extra sound doesn't punch you In the ears, it somehow delivers a decidedly cinema experience with relevant sounds occurring around and above, leaving no empty sound space in the room. Although quite expensive I can recommend this addition unreservedly.

I started out with the rs3 Speakers and I really like them. But I decided to move them into the bedroom and order the RS5 for the living room. The 360° spatial sound mapping makes such an incredible difference. The immersive audio is everything I expected it to be from Sony. So glad I made this purchase.! Way to go again, Sony, nothing but the best!

Apprehensive to buy these at first, thought they were expensive. But when they were connected what a difference and maybe worth the money, so easy to set up as the sound bar did all the connecting I also like the battery power speaker as I can place them in place when I need them. (The wife does not like then on show this is the compromise I had to make, I'm sure there will be a time when I can place them permanently)

I bought the product on July 2023. But the right speaker stopped working within few months. When I looked for Sony service, there was nothing nearby to my address and I was forced by Sony to bear the transportation and shipping cost. Importantly, they haven't repaired my product yet. Totally unacceptable. They charge a premium amount from the customers but they provide very poor build quality and worst service.

Bought these SA-RS5 rear surrounds to add to the HT-A3000 soundbar and X90L TV. I am honestly blown away at the performance these speakers have when combined with the HT-A3000 Soundbar and X90L. This makes the Soundbar a 5.1.2 with the RS5s added and it does not disappoint. It has a nice design to them I personally enjoy the rounded look these have. They offer multiple ways to mount or just stand alone which, is how I have mine. They also have a built-in battery which allows for even greater mounting positions, cord free. Way cool. Me personally I use them plugged in as they then automatically turn on and off with the entire system. TV included. Literally just one button turns everything on. The sound reproduction also does not disappoint. These produce a nice full loud surround effect when called for. Literally feels as if people are walking behind me or their voices go from left to right when they are walking, or if the camera is facing them then faces another person the voices go from in front of you to behind you. Awesome. Watching scary movies literally made me look in the kitchen as I swear, I heard noises from in the kitchen. It was the speakers accurately reproducing sounds in multiple directions. This is the first time I actually feel surround systems work as intended. I really recommend adding these to your HT line of soundbars. Nice full rounded sound. Speaking of sound music also sounds fantastic on these. I have had surround systems and when music is played through them you didn't hear the surrounds much. Not the case with these. Every song, I can hear some sort of surround sound from them, and they are not buried out from the other speakers. Wait till you experience 360 audio from them, spot on. I am very happy with the purchase of these and watching movies is on another level. I will be adding the bigger of the two sub woofers to this set up. Excellent Sony, keep them coming.

Great product and they give you so much flexibility as to where they can be located as they are wireless.

The SA-RS5 Speakers have performed very well. I bought them because I needed a set of rear speakers for my Sony HTA5000 Sound Bar, and Sony SASW3 Subwoofer and Sony XR65A90JK OLED TV to complete my Home Theater System. They seem to be solidly built with the quality you expect from Sony. I tried the SARS3 speakers but they just did not produce enough sound to match the output of the other components. The SA-RS5 speakers integrated perfectly with the other components and enhanced them with crisp, clear sound. They are not overwhelmingly powerful but I didn't need it with size of the room. That said, with the right movie sound track produce a strong enough output to fill in the rear sound and don't get overpowered by soundbar or subwoofer to bring out the full "surround sound" effect. I keep the speakers plugged in during normal use so I have not tested the battery life thoroughly, but it seems to hold up well during times I have used on battery only. Volume level seems to have a significant impact on battery life as one would expect. One thing to note is when the speakers are plugged-in, once they are fully charged there is no trickle charge to keep them at full power. They will discharge by roughly 30% and then will start to recharge. Once they begin to recharge again you may see an indication on your TV or sound bar of "Right (and/or Left) Rear speaker is connected". This seems to indicate the speaker(s) is/are starting to recharge. I have not noticed any speaker sound loss or drop-out. I would recommend this product.

I bought these speakers a month ago and set them up as Sony specified. They are used and connected to a AG9 Master Series TV and an HT3000 Soundbar. The TV output sound is brilliant. The sounbar is connected via the TV's eARC output. And the whole set up is as Sony recommends. With speakers to the rear and optimized to each other and soundbar and on stands etc. The HT3000 Sounbar output is OK but the sound output from these new speakers is very and I mean very weak. I had to put my ears to each speaker to see if they were actually breathing, I mean I thought they were dead. I await a Sony reply but at present thinking of sending them back. Goes without saying I therefore shouldn't by the matching woofer. Where are you. Sony experts. Darryl.

When you spend this much on a speaker you expect the best. With this unit, you get just that. Lovely build quality snd easy to configure. Impressive.
