Features

The two detachable rear surround modules of the speaker create a three-dimensional surround sound field at any time. The integrated visual design of the new Sony Bluetooth speaker makes it fit perfectly into several interior designs. It is equipped with Sony’s proprietary 360SSM technology. This allows users to enjoy a dome-styled sound field that fits the space without any adjustments.

The Sony Brick Audio HT-AX7 speaker offers an immersive sound output in enclosed spaces like your sitting and living rooms. It is equipped with two X-balanced speaker units on the front and uses an off-center design for improved sound clarity.

Sony has unveiled a new sound system that straddles between being a soundbar and a wireless speaker. The Sony HT-AX7 comes with detachable surround speakers and is as compact as it can get. The new Sony HT-AX7 delivers cinematic sound almost anywhere you want it with its wireless architecture.

The Sony HT-AX7 is significantly different from any previous Sony sound offering. It is tagged a portable theatre system and it can be transformed from a single unit to a tripartite system. This is because it has two detachable speakers that combine with the unit. The Sony HT-AX7 offers spatial and room-filling sound across the room with its unique configuration. When the speakers are placed around the house in a triangular arrangement, it offers immersive sound.

When the tripartite triangular arrangement has been set up, the Sony 360 Spatial Sound Mapping technology creates multiple phantom speakers which envelopes the room. This delivers spatial audio with the added benefit of a cinematic surround sound output. You just have to place the speakers around without having to embed or install permanent units on the wall or ceiling.

The Sony HT-AX7 features Sony’s upmixer algorithm that can transform stereo into 3-dimensional surround sound. This enables analyzing audio in real-time and delivering immersive sound. Current reviews of the spatial audio offered by the HT-AX7 are positive whether playing music or experiencing movies on a TV screen. The versatile Sony HT-AX7 can also be used as a domestic speaker which can be popped anywhere in your room. The HT-AX7 has up to 30 hours of battery life and Bluetooth connectivity.

The Sony Home Entertainment Connect App provides the control tool for the HT-AX7. It provides a guided setup of the sound system and you can adjust the sound field, volume, and other parameters via your smartphone.

The new Sony sound system does not come with a physical remote unit. The product is made from 100% recycled PET bottles and its packaging is based on bamboo, sugarcane, and recycled paper. The Sony HT-AX7 will arrive in August 2023 in Australia and other markets with a projected $500 price tag.
