Overview

A movie lover who wants true surround without a receiver gets Sony's Quad speaker system with its dual-driver subwoofer. It maps sound around the room with spatial processing and tunes itself to the space through automatic calibration.

Room calibration and many speaker units create a wide, enveloping sound field without a stack of separate gear. Adding a second subwoofer for even bass means buying another unit.

Who it's for

Living rooms and media rooms for film and series watching. Small apartments may find the system larger than they need.

Pros and cons

Performance notes

Opposing drivers in the subwoofer push against each other, which cancels cabinet shake and tightens the bass. Sound Field Optimization measures the room so spatial effects land where you sit.
