After the Sony Bravia Theater Quad 4.0 system, the Sony Bar 8 (also known as the Sony HT-A8000), Sony Bar 9 (also known as the Sony HT-A9000) and Sony Bar 6 soundbars, the Japanese manufacturer is now offering the Sony Theater System 6 as part of its 2025 audio offering.

Among the features available on the Sony Theater System 6, the Voice Zoom 3 function. Based on artificial intelligence, it identifies human voices and amplifies them for perfect intelligibility. And to be complete, the speakers also benefit from the DSEE principle to magnify in real time (via the Edge-AI algorithm) the sound quality of compressed audio files, and the Imax Enhanced certification.
