Depending on the room correction, these could well be a very good sound machine.

I have an older MA 200 dock thing with a rudimentary bass manager and it really can sound much better than it has any right too.

I’m looking forward to a review.

They certainly look top class from the photos.

No ac WiFi in the official specs?? - although page is looking incomplete at the moment

The SRS-RA5000 reminds me of one of those Philips shavers... £500 not exactly cheap.

That will look weird in a living room?! And it's not going to sound even the slightest bit as good as a proper discrete 5.1.4 system.

Come on Sony get a move on and release this stuff (music/codec) properly! We need to be able to hear 360RA on a proper surround sound system.

The SRS_RA5000 is one of Sony's Hi-Res audio products - all my other Sony Hi-Res products have LDAC in order to receive the higher bandwidth necessary - don't see a HD Bluetooth codec in the specs??
