Sony SARS9.CEJ BRAVIA Theatre Rear 9 Wireless Rear Speakers
Introducing the BRAVIA Theatre Rear 9: Above and beyond surround.
Hear it all with these wireless rear speakers, as Sony's immersive 360 Spatial Sound Mapping technology turns your living room into a movie theatre, forming multiple phantom speakers around you and drawing you deeper into every scene.
Precision-built aluminium drivers create a spacious, distortion-free sound field that captures every nuance, from tiny whispers to fleeting scores.
You can enjoy this multi-dimensional, cinematic experience without even installing in-ceiling speakers. Large 80mm up-firing speakers inside each unit send sound soaring upwards, reflecting it off your ceiling and walls to create compelling sound from above, behind, and the sides.
Easy to mount and easy to angle, the included brackets offer horizontal angle adjustment, allowing you to aim the supreme sound straight at your sofa.
The speakers are shaped and refined to fit effortlessly into your living space, and are the perfect design match for a BRAVIA TV, soundbar, and subwoofer.
The BRAVIA Theatre Rear 9 is ready to go straight out of the box. The BRAVIA Connect app can be used for set up guidance and everyday control.
Recycled materials are used in the speakers' fabric and packaging
Sound Quality
The BRAVIA Theatre Rear 9 takes you above and beyond conventional surround sound.
Using Sony's innovative 360 Spatial Sound Mapping technology, these wireless speakers work with the latest BRAVIA Theatre soundbars to create multiple phantom speakers around you, set up in a cinema-style layout. As the physical and phantom speakers combine to create audio from the front, sides, behind, and above, you become centre stage in an optimised sound field, where everything hits with greater intensity. As the coverage is so much wider than standard virtual surround sound systems, everyone can enjoy the same cinematic level of immersion, wherever they are in the room.
The sound quality is clear and expansive. There is an aluminium diaphragm at the heart of each speaker, reducing unwanted vibration and noise for purer sound and enhanced clarity. Tweeters, woofers, and up-firing speakers open up the soundstage, whilst passive radiators deepen the bass. This adds space, distance, and realism to everything you hear.
Don't be limited to thinking these are just rear speakers — the BRAVIA Theatre Rear 9 delivers powerful sound from above, without the need for in-ceiling speakers. A large 80mm up-firing speaker inside each unit sends sound to the ceiling, creating natural reflections from above and behind. By enriching the height layer in Sony's 360 Spatial Sound Mapping, this deepens the sense of scale, drawing you further into the action on-screen.
