Sony Sound bar a5000 contestSony has entertainment covered in so many ways. You likely are keenly aware that their televisions are among the best in the world. And Sony headphones are in a class all by themselves, especially when it comes to noise cancellation. Did you know they are equally admired for their home audio components? Read on to learn more about Sony home audio, then enter for a chance to win a Sony A5000 450 Watt sound barSony SW3 subwoofer, and Sony SA-RS3S speaker pair prize.

Sony delivers sound all around with 360 spatial sound mapping

Sony audio components synergistically contribute to a fuller listening experience. I don’t mean louder, I mean an experience that transforms the standard two dimensional experience of watching a movie or concert into a whole room immersive event. The prize we are giving away in this contest is a great example of Sony audio innovation. It all begins with an amazing HT-A5000 sound bar. On its own, the sound bar will astound you: it’s packed with up-firing speakers, side tweeters, and subwoofer for a 5.1.2 channel package that neatly fits below your television. On its own, it drives heart pounding rock & roll or mind mellowing jazz throughout your room, surrounding you with balanced full-range sound. On its own, it will make you feel that time has become irrelevant.

Add in a couple more components, the SW3 subwoofer for deeper bass, and the SA-RS3S back channel speakers, and get Sony’s 360 spatial sound mapping to awaken your audio senses to the possibilities of listening nirvana. Our ears have been waiting, craving for this. Read Jason Gorber’s honest review to learn his objective opinion: he said, the combination of sound bar and speakers that we are giving away in this contest, “may be the best you can buy.” We sent this system to Jason and now it’s ready for us to give away in this amazing contest.

Will you turn it loud or keep it mellow

Do you have a debate in your home about how loud the TV should be? Or how loud the music should be? I have to admit, I like it loud more often than my wife. However, I also like to hear nuance. Sometimes, when my wife asks me to turn down the volume, I get more out of the music, more of the nuance of the music, and am transported more into my happy place than I had been before turning it down.

I would love to test out this system to see if the music I thought I liked best at full volume, might become more pleasurable due to Sony’s 360 spatial sound mapping. Maybe I don’t need to watch 007 or listen to Dark Side of the Moon at 100 db anymore. How about you? What would you want to try listening to using this system to see if you hear it better at a different volume than before? Enter this contest and you might get to win the chance to find out.

  1. I’d watch The Lord of the Rings trilogy and I’d play it really loud so that I don’t miss any of the great dialogue or music

  2. I would listen / watch A Few Good Men
    Listen to it on medium because when the catch phrase “You want the truth You can’t handle the Truth” it gets pretty loud

  3. I would want to listen to Coda and I would play it very softly. I saw it without a sound bar and I would like to relive the experience with quality sound.

  4. Interstellar is my favourite movie and movie score of all time, it would be the first thing I watch and listen to at loud volume through the Sony audio system.

  5. I would listen to King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard (but which album?), not too softly, not too loud. Would pair nicely with our Sony TV, which has amazing picture, but could use a boost in the sound department.

  6. And lastly, my final entry, I also posted my contest entry on LinkdIn as Mike Mottishaw

  7. I also posted my contest entry on Twitter as @michaelmottisha
    Happy Springtime to all you hard workers too!

  8. Wondering where the Lions are – great bass, great acoustical guitar – loud so the bass comes to life.

    • I would blast an ACDC concert really loud as that is the way it was meant to be listened to!

  9. I would watch and listen to some Nickelback and I would be not too loud to try and take in all the great sound

  10. The Trans-Siberian Orchestra is the perfect concert music to play on our new stereo system. We will play it LOUD!.

  11. The musical artist I would like to hear through the Sony audio system would be Ariana Grande. I would play it really loud because I’d like to be able to feel the music.

  12. It would be to win a Sony HT-A5000 sound bar audio system. We are hoping that a soundbar with help when watching and listening to American Idol and the Mastered Singer shows it would be great to get wonderful sound.

  13. Since we lost Prince, I have been thunderstruck by the incredible talents of Adam Lambert!! I would be helpless from being able to listen to him in any other way than LOUD, he rocks my soul with the sound of that heavenly voice!!
    That’s why I think that it’s about time to WIN one of your generous contests (this one, eh?!). 😉

  14. The movie Titanic, medium volume! I would play this movie because it is my ultimate favourite and I don’t like my sound too loud!

  15. i would play some pink floyd, really really loud! i bet it would sould incredible through this sound bar!!

  16. Listen, every show we watch the voice audio is usually low, so we turn up the volume. However, when any action occurs or music kicks in, we go deaf and my wife yells at me to turn it down. Hopefully the sound bar can help with that.

  17. I would like to hear Drake through this Sony audio system. I’ll play it really loud so I can hear it through out the house.

  18. I would like to hear through the Sony audio system Mariah Carey really loud because it’s energetic music.

  19. I would play The Lord of the Rings trilogy movies through the Sony HT-A5000 sound bar audio system, not full volume, but loud enough to enjoy all the sound details.

  20. I would watch an epic war movie like Dunkirk, or Saving Private Ryan, volume up pretty high to hear the explosions and gunshots.

  21. I’d love to play a scary movie like Scream! It’d play it on loud, that’s the best way to watch movies!

  22. Listening to George Gershwin – Rhapsody in Blue would be fantastic. it switches from plaintive piano to strings/brass/percussion overload and back again several times. And I would play it loud and and midway loud

  23. I would play XG’s Tippy Toes song on medium volume so I can enjoy it while not blasting my neighbors and my ears
