Overview
Ultimate surround with 360 Spatial Sound Mapping - Experience the ultimate in home surround. 360 Spatial Sound Mapping technology creates 5 phantom speakers in front of you and reflects sound off the ceiling and walls, enabling cinema-style surround sound from a single soundbar.
Enjoy wider surround sound coverage - Now more people can enjoy the same immersive surround experience. By using phantom speakers, 360 Spatial Sound Mapping technology achieves wider coverage than conventional virtual surround systems.
Unleash the full potential of 360 Spatial Sound Mapping - Add optional wireless rear speakers for an even more expansive sound stage. Working with the rear speakers, the Bar 8 creates up to 11 phantom speakers, including speakers behind you for that authentic cinema feel.
Upmix stereo content to surround sound - Sony's new upmixer delivers rich surround sound even from stereo content. Its innovative algorithm extracts and redistributes individual audio objects to immerse you in 3D sound. While upmixing, AI Sound Separation processing detects human voices and makes them sound clearer.
Speaker placement made simple - Adding rear speakers? Don’t worry about finding the perfect position. Sound Field Optimization calibrates sound based on their location and uses phantom speakers to fill any gaps in the surround stage. No need to remodel your home to get movie theatre acoustics. Sound Field Optimization analyses your room's acoustic characteristics, then uses advanced signal processing to overwrite them with those of a movie theatre.
The best seat is where you are - Enjoy quality surround sound wherever you're sitting. Just run calibration with our smartphone app, BRAVIA Connect, and BRAVIA Theatre Bar 8 will detect your position in the room and optimise sound to suit.
Side speakers fill the space with sound - Side speakers reflect wide directional sound off the walls, filling your entire room with expansive sound and giving entertainment a real sense of drama and scale. The ambient sound recognised by the algorithm contributes to the expansive sound too.
Hear sound from overhead - Up-firing speakers reflect sound off the ceiling for immersive overhead audio. 360 Spatial Sound Mapping creates phantom ceiling speakers for even more atmospheric sound.
An immersive gaming experience - Lose yourself in gaming. Enjoy immersive overhead sound with the PlayStation®5 console, optimised picture settings by Auto HDR Tone Mapping and Auto Genre Picture Mode when connecting compatible BRAVIA™ TVs and PS5® console. This product also supports VRR, ALLM and SBTM for more realistic gaming.
