Home Theater Soundbar with 11 Speakers

The Sony HT-A8000 BRAVIA Theater Bar 8 integrates eleven speaker units into a single soundbar chassis. It is designed for viewers who want cinematic surround performance without installing multiple satellite speakers around the room. The system supports Dolby Atmos, DTS:X and IMAX Enhanced formats for object-based audio playback.

HDMI 2.1 Video Pass-Through and Gaming

The HDMI 2.1 connection handles 4K120, VRR and ALLM signals for modern consoles and GPUs. It also passes 8K HDR and Dolby Vision video to a compatible display. Buyers whose source devices or displays lack HDMI 2.1 will not access the high refresh rate or variable refresh rate features. Wireless expansion relies on optional proprietary subwoofer and rear speaker kits.

Acoustic Calibration and BRAVIA Integration

Sound Field Optimization measures room characteristics and adjusts output automatically for balanced audio. Acoustic Center Sync pairs with compatible BRAVIA televisions to use the TV screen as a centre channel. Control is managed through the BRAVIA Connect smartphone app or directly from the TV menu when paired. The unit ships in black finish.

Questions about this item

How do I choose between the 11-speaker bar alone and adding the optional SA-SW3, SA-SW5, SA-RS3R or SA-RS5 units?

The bar has 11 built-in speakers for spatial audio. Add a wireless subwoofer for deeper bass and rear speakers for true surround channels; each component pairs wirelessly.

What does 360 Spatial Sound Mapping actually do in my living room?

It measures room acoustics with Sound Field Optimization and maps audio objects around you, creating a wider, more immersive soundstage from the 11 drivers.

What does the HDMI 2.1 connection cap at for 4K gaming?

The HDMI 2.1 ports pass 4K at 120 Hz with VRR and ALLM, so PS5 and other consoles keep full frame-rate and variable refresh without downscaling.
