S O N Y H T-A 9
Comprising just four relatively small and unusually circular speakers rather than the usual
five or, if a subwoofer is involved, six, Sony describes the A9 as a 360 Spatial Sound Mapping
system. This describes the way a combination of the speakers’ innovative design and
clever processing can generate a remarkable 12 phantom speakers, creating a remarkably
immersive and detailed sound stage with minimal impact on your decor.
