High Resolution Audio
From source to speaker, Sony has brought together an array of technologies for the ultimate audio experience. For High-Resolution Audio files, the digital amp and specialized tweeters reproduce every subtlety, so you can hear each note as the artist intended. For MP3s, digital processing software upscales compressed music to restore lost detail.
2.2 channel system for powerful audio
Enjoy powerful sound from a 2.2ch speaker system. Two mid-range speakers deliver pure crisp vocals and complex melodies. Two powerful subwoofers work with a passive radiator for resounding bass. So you can enjoy your music clearly, whatever the volume.
Boost your bass with a woofer and passive radiator
Get big bass lines from a compact speaker. A passive radiator works together with the subwoofer and reacts to the movement of air through the speaker, artificially creating space in the speaker cabinet. This space allows more air to flow through the speakers, enabling even smaller units to deliver superior sound - especially at low-end frequencies.
DSEE HX restores your music files
Go beyond CD quality. DSEE HX builds on our proprietary DSEE technology, upscaling compressed audio files to a level that's closer to High-Resolution Audio. By restoring the subtleties of the original recording that are lost during the compression process, DSEE HX delivers a rich, studio-quality audio experience for all your music.
LDAC: for the transmission of High-Resolution Audio content
LDAC supports several transmission rates according to your wireless environment. It allows you to enjoy High-Resolution Audio content in exceptional sound quality near to High-Resolution Audio, by transmitting at the maximum transfer rate: 990 kbps (approximately three times more data than conventional Bluetooth audio). LDAC provides an enhanced wireless listening experience for all your music, the way the artist truly intended.
ClearAudio+ enriches your music
Clear Audio+ is a unique technology that leverages Sony's expertise in digital signal processing. Developed over generations of perfecting sound, it delivers a rich, high-quality listening experience.
One-touch listening to play instant music
NFC (Near Field Communication) technology removes the need for wired connections and complex setup sequences. Simply touch your NFC-enabled smartphone or other device to the on-body N-mark and start your music. No NFC? No problem. You can also pair the devices manually in Bluetooth settings.
The simple way to send music to your speakers
The SRS-ZR7 has Google Cast built in, so you can cast your favorite music apps from your personal device to your speakers. Simply tap the Cast button in a music app on your iPhone, iPad, Android phone or tablet, Mac, Windows laptop, or Chromebook and select a speaker or group of speakers to get started.
Set your music free with multi-room listening and SongPal Link
Let the music follow you around the house with multi-room listening from SongPal Link, controlled by the SongPal app. It lets you group selected Sony sound bars and speakers together. With the Group mode you can enjoy the same music simultaneously with multiple speakers, and the Single mode, where different music can be enjoyed with multiple speakers.
Get connected with USB-A, USB-B and HDMI (ARC)
Hook up all your favorite devices to the wireless speaker with two types of USB port and HDMI (ARC). A USB-A port is ideal for connecting and streaming High-Resolution Audio and MP3 files. The second port is USB-B for PC connection, enabling digital playback straight from your music library without any signal loss from the PC.
Definitive Outline design
A smooth surface and clean lines ensure this sleek beauty blends into the background, yet still draws attention for its minimalist refinement. The accented perimeter is a signature of Definitive Outline.
