Sony introduces the SRS-RA5000 and SRS-RA3000, premium wireless speakers engineered for an immersive audio experience. These speakers utilize Sony’s advanced spatial sound technologies and smart features to deliver sound that envelops the listener.
Unlike conventional speakers that project sound horizontally, the RA5000 and RA3000 utilize Immersive Audio Enhancement and 360 Reality Audio to distribute sound both horizontally and vertically.
Immersive Audio Enhancement technology transforms standard two-channel stereo audio into a spacious, room-filling sound experience. 360 Reality Audio technology, on the other hand, utilizes three-dimensional sound location data embedded within compatible tracks, allowing the RA5000 and RA3000 to optimize sound output for a truly immersive experience. 360 Reality Audio content can be accessed through compatible music streaming services, offering a growing library of songs from popular artists.
The RA5000 features three upward-facing speakers for vertical sound distribution and three middle speakers for horizontal sound distribution. Its built-in subwoofer adds depth and richness to the audio with powerful bass. The speaker unit’s compact size is attributed to the use of neodymium magnets, while a mica-reinforced cellular diaphragm enhances structural integrity.
The RA3000, designed for humidity resistance, delivers omnidirectional sound and deep bass through a combination of technologies. A full-range speaker driver, an omni-diffuser, and dual passive radiators work together to produce a rich and immersive sound experience. Overlapping beam tweeters within the speaker generate an upward wavefront for vertical sound distribution, ensuring optimal audio coverage throughout the room.

The RA5000 and RA3000 come equipped with sound calibration technology. The RA5000 can be calibrated by pressing the Immersive Audio Enhancement button, while the RA3000 automatically calibrates in the background during audio playback and recalibrates upon restarting.
These speakers offer consistent audio levels, ensuring that tracks are neither excessively loud nor quiet. They achieve this by analyzing and automatically adjusting the playback volume of each track. Furthermore, the RA5000 boasts Hi-Res Audio certification, guaranteeing exceptional sound quality for high-resolution audio playback.
Both speakers offer versatile connectivity options. Users can stream music wirelessly via Bluetooth from various devices, including smartphones, laptops, and tablets, or directly stream high-quality audio content over a Wi-Fi network. They also support analog connections, while the RA5000 provides the additional convenience of one-touch NFC pairing for compatible smart devices. For added flexibility, the speakers are compatible with Spotify Connect and feature built-in Chromecast functionality.
Voice control is possible with both the RA5000 and RA3000 through Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa-enabled devices. The speakers also support multiroom playback with compatible devices, controllable via the Google Home or Amazon Alexa app.
The Sony | Music Center app provides comprehensive control over the speakers from a smartphone, allowing users to manage playlists, fine-tune equalizer settings, and enable or disable features like Immersive Audio Enhancement and Auto Volume.
For a seamless audio-visual experience, enjoy low-latency wireless connectivity with compatible BRAVIA televisions via Bluetooth.
