Sony BRAVIA Theater Bar 7 + Sub 7, Dolby Atmos/DTS:X compatible
Product Description:
The Sony BRAVIA Theater Bar 7 + Sub 7 (HT-AP710) is a premium soundbar-and-subwoofer bundle that delivers immersive cinematic surround sound with deep, controlled bass in a sleek, space-saving package. Combining the 9-speaker BRAVIA Theater Bar 7 with Sony's compact 100W wireless Sub 7, this system produces a full-bodied, room-filling audio experience that rivals multi-speaker surround setups — without the clutter.
The BRAVIA Theater Bar 7 houses 9 dedicated driver units: three woofers, two tweeters, two up-firing speakers that bounce sound off your ceiling for overhead Atmos effects, two side-firing speakers for expansive width, and four passive radiators — all within a slimline single-bar design. Sony's new 2-way front speaker system features dedicated woofers and tweeters for the front left and right channels, delivering wider surround sound with a precise, well-defined stereo image. A full-range center speaker ensures clear, natural dialogue reproduction.
Sony's acclaimed 360 Spatial Sound Mapping technology creates five phantom speakers in front of you and reflects sound off your ceiling and walls, enabling true cinema-style surround from the soundbar alone. Sound Field Optimization, accessed through the BRAVIA Connect smartphone app, calibrates the system to your room's unique acoustics and your listening position — so every seat feels like the best seat in the house. Voice Zoom 3™, powered by AI machine learning, recognizes human voices and intelligently adjusts dialogue clarity when paired with a compatible BRAVIA TV.
The included BRAVIA Theater Sub 7 (SA-SW7) adds 100W of deep, distortion-free bass from a powerful 130mm driver with passive radiator and bass reflex design. Sony's Separated Notch Edge technology uses concentric cuts on the speaker surround to control diaphragm movement for cleaner, punchier bass with less distortion. The Sub 7's dual-orientation design allows vertical or horizontal placement, blending seamlessly into any room layout. It connects wirelessly to the Bar 7 — no speaker cable required.
The system supports Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, and is IMAX Enhanced certified. HDMI 2.1 passthrough handles up to 8K HDR, Dolby Vision, VRR, ALLM, and SBTM for cutting-edge gaming on PS5. Built-in Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Spotify Connect, Apple AirPlay, and DSEE Ultimate audio upscaling round out the feature set. The system is expandable with optional wireless rear speakers (Rear 8 or Rear 9) and supports a second subwoofer for even greater bass impact.
