Key Features

Enjoy cinematic moments together
New 360 Spatial Sound Mapping technology with 11 speaker units delivers immersive surround sound to a wider area, so everyone can share the experience.

Cinematic sound for a wider audience
BRAVIA Theatre Bar 8 combines physical and phantom speakers, creating a wider surround sound field that covers more of the room.

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 theatre surround sound.

Outstanding acoustic performance with 11 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 Theatre Bar 8 doesn’t disappoint.

New 2-way speaker
Discover clear, wide surround sound from a single soundbar. The Bar 8 features a new 2-way speaker with added tweeters for front and centre, delivering wider surround sound and a precise sound image.

Quad woofer delivers powerful bass
The Bar 8 may be slim but it delivers remarkably powerful, punchy bass thanks to a built-in quad woofer.

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.
