Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Sound clarity is exceptional. The audio is crisp, clear, and loud when you want it to be. Music is ofcourse exceptional, and i mean live on stage clarity.

The included template allows you to pinpoint the exact spot where the holes need to be drilled. The options are very intuitive just looking at the screen. Sony includes all the usual paperwork to get you started including a large, folding initial setu... Read More

Even without a paired subwoofer, the bass is impressive. Treble and bass are robust. The only comparisons i have is a $250 gaming headphones and a $400 heymaker headphones.

There are two beam tweeters one on each side of the bar that work to deliver sound reflection to the sides of the room and then to ceiling. This sound bar handles 3d sound similar to the gaming headphones and has a richness close to the haymakers. It ... Read More

It mimics surround sound so well that i am beyond happy with it. It basically calibrates itself. The surround sound feel is just amazing.

Cons

I thought this would do a decent job of mimicking surround. My cheap old $100 * 5 speaker surround sound from 10 years ago still gives a more surround sound experience than this $1,000 sound bar. I am disappointed, and sure as heck annoyed that i woul... Read More

Quality

However, build quality is very good at the entire cover for the soundbar is very durable.

-immediately i heard a significant difference in the quality of movies and music that i use to listen to through the tv speakers.

For instance i have a $3,000 sony tv that has the best picture quality o have ever seen and amazing stock sound, but it constan... Read More

I can't even fathom the quality what the sub plus two rear speakers connected would be likefor a daily use.

Packaging/appearance

Sony designed notches into the back of the soundbar, so you can comfortably run the cables and wires to a tv and a power outlet.

This is fantastic and i routinely use the soundbar to stream music from spotify and amazon music.

- the sony music center app does not inform to the user what type of movie audio content (dolby digital/atmos) is being played ... Read More

It'll put the menus right up on the screen.

Competitiveness

This bar is worth every penny of it's heafty price tag.

The sound bar also comes with wall-mount bracket, hdmi and optical cables and a remote control.

I went to a store to test the 5000 with its competitors before mine arrived from amazon.

This sound bar also has a chromecast built-in, supports airplay 2, and can be linked with spotify connect, alexa, and google assistant.
