What Redditors Say

Best praise vs top criticism for Sony HT-A7000

Best Praise
+12 pts
“I've had a massive 9.2 system with dual SVS subs, 110" 4k projector. I recently simplified to an 85" Sony 4k tv and HT-A7000 with RS rears and dual subs. It's so close to my old system that i'lll never go back. And it actually has a better sound bubble. Way more floor space, wires under control, single remote. If I wanna upgrade, just move it to another room or sell it.”

“I had ht a7000 for a week and to even say the thing is close to a 990c is beyond stupid. Look at all the reviews and forum comments 990c is not recommend by virtually everyone by chance. I sent the a7000 back and got a 990c never once regretted it and kicker it is cheaper than your Sony combo suggestion by a lot. 990c all the way”
