Key Features
X-Balanced Speaker Unit
The built-in dual subwoofer and front speakers feature an X-Balanced Speaker Unit. The unique rectangular shape of these speakers maximises the diaphragm area for more punchy bass. It also reduces driver excursion while maintaining sound pressure, resulting in less distortion and greater vocal clarity.
SA-SW5 optional subwoofer
300W of deep, rich bass from a 180mm driver with passive radiator.
Upscale your digital music in real time
Using Edge-AI (Artificial Intelligence), DSEE Extreme (Digital Sound Enhancement Engine) upscales compressed digital music files in real time. Dynamically recognising instrumentation, musical genres, and individual elements of each song, such as vocals or interludes, it restores the high-range sound lost in compression for a richer, more complete listening experience. A = Expanded audio dynamics (strings and whisper-quiet subtleties) B = Restored high frequencies (acoustic and vocal instrument realism)
Get a fuller, richer sound with a wireless subwoofer and rear speakers
An optional wireless subwoofer allows a built-in dual subwoofer in the soundbar to handle bass and vocals with the optional wireless subwoofer focusing on low range sound. For even more cinematic thrills with sound directly behind you, add our optional wireless rear speakers.
SA-RS3S optional rear speakers
Total 100W of wider surround sound.
SA-RS5 optional rear speakers
Total 180W of wider surround sound with up-firing speakers.
SA-SW3 optional subwoofer
200W of sound from a compact bass reflex subwoofer with a 160mm driver.
Best with Sony TVs
Paired with BRAVIA TVs, the HT-A3000 brings you an immersive audio-visual experience with our best picture and sound quality. It's the perfect soundbar for BRAVIA TVs.
Effortless control with BRAVIA TVs
With an integrated UI, soundbar sound settings automatically appear on the BRAVIA Quick Settings menu for easy control of features such as sound field and volume by the TV remote control.
Sound perfectly matches action
With Acoustic Center Sync, you'll hear dialogue from exactly where the character is standing in the scene. Action and sound are precisely aligned so your viewing becomes much more immersive.
Soundbar position
If you have a BRAVIA TV with a multi-position stand, you can change the position of the TV stand and fit the HT-A3000 discreetly beneath the TV for a clean look.
Even more immersion with BRAVIA Acoustic Center Sync
When connected to a BRAVIA TV with Acoustic Center Sync, both the soundbar and the TV become the centre speaker in your home cinema system. Furthermore, connecting the soundbar with optional wireless rear speakers, the TV speaker plays the centre channel role with your soundbar as part of the 360 Spatial Sound Mapping setup. This enables sound to precisely match what's on the screen for clearer dialogue and a more immersive experience.
Stream music from your favourite services
With built-in support for Spotify Connect, and other music services via Bluetooth, Chromecast or Apple AirPlay 2, you can easily enjoy your favourite music with the whole family.
Omnidirectional Block Design
The HT-A3000 and optional speakers have been designed under a common Omnidirectional Block concept. Its sophisticated rounded edges represent a single solid block providing wide-spreading sound. The combination of rich material textures emphasises an affinity with any living room environment.

Share music and more from your favourite Apple devices to your soundbar. All with a tap.
Effortless and atmospheric sound
For immersive movies, press the Sound Field button on your remote and enjoy atmospheric sound that puts you right at the heart of the action. Or turn Sound Field off for pure speaker sound when listening to stereo music.
Voice mode
Whether it's the morning news or season finale, the mode tailors sound settings to accentuate speech so you won't miss a word.

A wide listening area fills every part of your living space so your family and friends get the same sound experience. The listening area is not limited to the front of the TV but encompasses a much wider space.
Optimised for speaker position
There's no need to precisely place the optional speakers. The soundbar with built-in microphones does it all for you, intelligently measuring the position of each speaker, and optimising sound to your room.

Immersive surround sound from a soundbar
The HT-A3000 has 3.1 channels: three front speakers, including a centre speaker for clear dialogue, plus a built-in dual subwoofer for deep bass. With Vertical Surround Engine and S-Force PRO Front Surround, it creates virtual surround sound that comes from all around you so you can fully enjoy the thrill of Dolby Atmos and DTS:X.
Surround made simple
Using front speakers only, Sony's unique digital sound field processing technology virtually reproduces the surround sound field, with audio coming at you from both sides. You can enjoy rich, cinematic surround sound without cluttering your living space.
So immersive. So real.
Discover a new way of listening with 360 Reality Audio for a truly immersive live concert or studio session experience.
Experience sound from above
Thanks to Sony's virtual surround technology, the soundbar can position sound in vertical space - so you can experience 3D audio without the need for in-ceiling or up-firing speakers. As well as Dolby Atmos and DTS:X, Vertical Surround Engine lends a more realistic, multi-dimensional sound to other formats too.
Built-in dual subwoofer for deep bass sound
The soundbar has a powerful built-in dual subwoofer in the centre - so you can enjoy deep bass sound with minimal equipment cluttering up your living space.
Centre speaker for clear dialogue
A dedicated centre speaker ensures that voice sounds can be clearly heard, whether it's quick-fire dialogue in your favourite TV show or whispered lines in a movie. It's great for music too, ensuring a richly detailed listening experience.
Sound from advanced speakers and a subwoofer
Powerful speakers - three front speakers for surround and a built-in dual subwoofer for rumbling bass - work together to deliver clear, wide-ranging sound throughout your room.
Extended bass
It takes a lot of power to accurately reproduce low bass frequencies and there's often a risk of distortion (A). To combat this, the soundbar uses Sony's unique signal processing technology to deliver dynamic extended bass, at any volume level (B). This graph is for illustration purposes. 1. Level 2. Low 3. High 4. Frequency
Clearer voice
The deeper the bass sound, the more the speaker diaphragm moves. This can cause an effect called phase modulation distortion when a full-range diaphragm needs to simultaneously reproduce higher frequencies. Sony's unique signal processing technology compensates for this effect for clearer dialogue and more localised sound. The improvements in the modulated waveform enhance clarity and help prevent vocal distortion. This graph is for illustration purposes. 1. Voice waveform 2. Bass waveform 3. Modulated waveform
