Sony SA-RS5 (Black)
Wireless Rear Speakers
£599
Upgrade your compatible Sony soundbar* to fully immersive 360 sound, with the totally wireless, Sony SA-RS5.
360 spatial sound, delivered cable-free
Much more than mere rear speakers, the Sony SA-RS5 use 360 Spatial Sound Mapping and up-firing speakers for intense, enveloping sound. Thanks to built-in rechargeable batteries, ‘wireless’ means precisely that. There are no connection cables from the soundbar or mains supply, letting you put these speakers precisely where you want.
Up-firing speakers for cinematic height
For the sound of cinema, at home, these Sony speakers use up-firing drivers in each speaker. These push the sound upwards, where it reflects from the ceiling. This greatly enhances overhead sound effects. From a helicopter or spaceship to gunfire or tropical rain, overhead effects are so real they’ll have you ducking for cover!
Punchy sound
Unlike many rear speakers, these Sonys have the bass presence to hit hard. 90 watts per speaker ensures they have all the power they need. The two-way design uses additional dual passive radiators to further assist the bass. This means that when the deep, rumbling engines of a spaceship or submarine pass overhead, the powerful effect remains constant from front to back.
360 Spatial Sound Mapping
Pairing with the multi-speaker array, 360 Spatial Sound Mapping uses advanced processing to precisely direct the sound around your room. Working alongside Sound Field Optimisation, the speakers use built-in microphones to measure the ceiling height and distance between all the speakers. The result is immersive sound that’s precisely tailored to your room and all at the touch of a button.
Fully wireless
Wireless connectivity means that the Sony SA-RS5 speakers connect to your soundbar without the need for speaker cables. Better still, you don’t even have to plug them into the mains supply. Built-in, rechargeable batteries offer up to 10 hours playback. A quick 10-minute charge is all that’s needed for 90 minutes play. Finally, you can enjoy rear speakers without the need for a nearby mains socket or unsightly cabling. Power cables are also supplied, for a permanent power source if you prefer.
Wall mountable
Surround sound is best when the rear speakers are positioned high up. To get the optimal sound from these rear speakers, we recommend mounting them higher than your soundbar. Thanks to simple wall-mount fittings, it’s easy to position these wireless speakers at just the right height.
Stylish, Omnidirectional Block Design
Whether wall-mounted or freestanding, the Omnidirectional Block Design, with rounded edges looks great. The flat rear surface means they sit perfectly against a wall, too. Just as you’d expect from style-focused brand, Sony, they complement the soundbar’s design to perfection.
Make movies, gaming and TV a more cinematic experience, with the Sony SA-RS5.
*Please note, these rear speakers are currently only compatible with Sony’s Dolby Atmos/DTS:X 2021 home cinema line-up, including the HT-A7000.

SA-RS5 Rear Speakers
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.

Sony RARS5 Almost too good for rear speakers
When researching audio, its easy to get carried away by the specs. These speakers have fantastic specs, but most of the time, they are not used to their full potential as they are just rear speakers. They are also very expensive for rear speakers. Sure they have atmos but this has no affect if your room has a high ceiling. How many of us can sit in a position as always shown and be immersed? Don't get me wrong, these are lovely speakers and the YouTube demos show their capability but on reflection would Ihave gone for the RA3s and saved lots of money? I would have certainly given much consideration.

Great speakers and easy set up.
I bought these speakers to complement my Sony AT H7000 soundbar. Easy set up and really change the way the soundbar sounds. They create a much more authentic surround sound than the soundbar alone. They also make even better use of the Dolby Atmos availability with the soundbar. Would really recommend them for anyone who has a compatible soundbar!

A Very Good addition to the A7000 Sound Bar
Bought these wireless speakers to go with the A7000 Sound Bar. They certainly add extra depth to the already very good sound coming from this Sound Bar

excellent design and features
I bought these speakers to add to the recent SA-SW5 subwoofer and HT-A3000 soundbar buys.
I like the design of these speakers and the optimise button on the top of the speakers means no matter where and how many times you move these about just takes a click of the button to optimise everything.
after I set these up i played the demo and it nearly blew me out my seat.
I have tried Netflix and music so far and I am happy with the overall performance, still to try out with atmos blu-ray discs but I thik I had better wait for the neighbours to be out for that.
1 small niggle is the right hand speaker does disconnect now and then but only for a minute or two
