Description
Your everyday way to cinematic sound
Our compact design, with 9 speaker units and acclaimed 360 Spatial Sound Mapping, surrounds you in rich, immersive sound. Transform your living room into a cinematic space with a single soundbar.
Rewriting the rules of surround sound
BRAVIA Theater Bar 7 combines physical and phantom speakers, creating a wider surround sound field, drawing you deeper into the movie.
Ultimate surround with 360 Spatial Sound Mapping
Experience the ultimate in home surround. 360 Spatial Sound Mapping technology creates 5 phantom speakers in front of you and reflects sound off the ceiling and walls, enabling movie theater-style surround sound from a single soundbar.
Enjoy wider surround sound coverage
Now more people can enjoy the same immersive surround experience. By using phantom speakers, 360 Spatial Sound Mapping technology achieves wider coverage than conventional virtual surround systems.
Unleash the full potential of 360 Spatial Sound Mapping
Add optional wireless rear speakers for an even more expansive sound stage. Working with the rear speakers, the Bar 7 creates up to 11 phantom speakers, including speakers behind you for that authentic cinema feel.
Sound straight from the movie theater
Bring authentic movie theater surround sound quality to your living room. BRAVIA Theater Bar 7 not only supports industry-standard formats including Dolby Atmos® and DTS:X®, but also has IMAX® Enhanced certification.
IMAX® Enhanced sound by DTS:X
You can enjoy a truly cinematic experience with select Disney+ titles on BRAVIA and BRAVIA Theater, powered by IMAX Enhanced technology.
Makes everywhere the best seat
It doesn’t matter which seat you’re in. It doesn’t even matter what your room’s acoustics are like. Sound Field Optimization lets everyone experience movie theater surround sound.
Speaker placement made simple
Don’t worry about finding the perfect speaker position. Wherever you place them, Sound Field Optimization calibrates sound accordingly, using phantom speakers to create the ideal surround sound field.
Calibrated to suit your room
No need to remodel your home to get movie theater acoustics. Sound Field Optimization analyzes your room’s acoustic characteristics, then uses advanced signal processing to overwrite them with those of a movie theater.
The best seat is where you are
Enjoy quality surround sound wherever you’re sitting. Just run calibration with our smartphone app, BRAVIA Connect, and BRAVIA Theater Bar 7 will detect your position in the room and optimize sound to suit.
Compact yet immersive with 9 speaker units
There’s more to great surround sound than signal processing alone. Your physical speakers need to deliver exceptional acoustic performance too—and BRAVIA Theater Bar 7 doesn’t disappoint.
New two-way speaker system
Discover clear, wide surround sound from a single soundbar. The Bar 7 features a new two-way speaker system with dedicated woofers and tweeters for the front left and right channels, delivering wider surround sound and a precise sound image.
Hear sound from overhead
Up-firing speakers reflect sound off the ceiling for immersive overhead audio. 360 Spatial Sound Mapping creates phantom ceiling speakers for even more atmospheric sound.
Side speakers fill the space with sound
Side speakers reflect wide directional sound off the walls, filling your entire room with expansive sound and giving entertainment a real sense of drama and scale.
Center speaker for clear dialogue
Equipped with a full-range center speaker, this system ensures dialog stays clear and natural—so every word comes through beautifully.
Built-in woofer and passive radiators deliver deep bass
Don’t be fooled by the slimline design. Thanks to built-in woofers and passive radiators, the Bar 7 generates the type of deep, resonant bass you’d expect from much larger speakers.
X-Balanced Speaker Unit
The speakers’ unique rectangular shape maximizes the diaphragm area for punchy bass. It also reduces driver excursion and maintains sound pressure, ensuring less distortion and greater vocal clarity.
So easy to use
BRAVIA Theater Bar 7 makes surround sound simple. From initial setup to smartphone control, it’s all about minimum effort, maximum enjoyment.
Do it all with BRAVIA

Crystal-clear voice. Precise dialog.

One system, many ways to listen
From movies to playlists, BRAVIA Theater Bar 7 supports multiple sound modes—upmixing, multi stereo, and upconvert—so whatever you play is delivered with immersive audio that fills your room.
Upmix stereo content to surround sound
Sony’s upmixer delivers rich surround sound even from stereo content. Its innovative algorithm extracts and redistributes individual audio objects to immerse you in 3D sound. While upmixing, AI Sound Separation processing detects human voices and makes them sound clearer.
Amplify the moment with Multi Stereo
Multi Stereo enhances your listening experience by playing the same sound from both front (L/R/Center) and rear speakers, creating a full-room sound boost. Feel the sound reverberate with greater intensity, amplifying every moment.
Stream music from your favorite services
