Sony on Wednesday also introduced two new standalone soundbars, Bravia Theatre Bar 7 and Bar 5, as well as two of its latest subwoofers (Sub 9 and Sub 8) and rear speaker (Rear 9 and Rear 8) models.
Users looking for the most immersive setup would want to pair the Trio system with two Bravia Theatre Sub 9s and Rear 9s, as per the Japanese electronics major. However, these additions are sold separately and remain optional.
Sunil Nayyar, the managing director of Sony India, said that India is emerging as one of the fastest-growing markets for large-screen TVs, a trend fueled not necessarily by bigger homes but by consumers’ strong appetite for cinematic viewing experiences. Continuous OTT growth is also driving demand for immersive audio content on OTTs, Nayyar said at a launch event held in New Delhi.
The Trio model comes with support for Dolby Atmos, DTS, and IMAX Enhanced. It is priced at Rs 1,69,900 and is available for sale from July 1 onwards across Sony retail stores, including Sony Centre and Sony Exclusive stores, as well as on Amazon.
The Bar 7 is being sold at Rs 82,990 from July 1, 2026, onwards.
Meanwhile, the Bravia Theatre Bar 5 is a 3.1-channel system that includes a dedicated centre speaker for precise dialogue reproduction and wireless subwoofer. The Bar 5 looks to create a spacious, virtual surround sound environment with Sony’s proprietary Vertical Surround Engine and S-Force PRO Front Surround technologies
When paired with compatible Sony Bravia TVs, the soundbar delivers further enhanced speech clarity with the help of additional features such as Voice Zoom 3. Sony’s unique upmixer and Voice Mode also ensures clear, balanced audio across a wide range of content.
The Bar 5 is available at Rs 29,990 from August 18, 2026, onwards.
In order to connect Sony Bravia televisions to Bravia Theatre subwoofers and rear speakers without a soundbar, the company has introduced the Direct Connect feature. It can be used to set up multiple configurations, including TV + subwoofer, TV + rear speakers, and TV + subwoofer + rear speakers. Direct Connect is currently supported by Bravia 9 II and Bravia 7 II units with support for other Bravia models coming through a firmware update soon.
