Get real cinema-style surround sound in a more compact package with the Sony HT-S500RF, priced at KES 50,000. Like its bigger sibling, the HT-S700RF, this is a genuine 5.1-channel system — not a virtual surround simulation — pairing a 3-channel soundbar with an external subwoofer and two dedicated rear speakers. The key difference: instead of tall-boy floor-standing towers, the HT-S500RF uses compact 21.6cm bookshelf-style rear speakers, making it a better fit if you'd rather wall-mount your rear speakers or sit them discreetly on a shelf.
With 1000W of total power output, this system delivers loud, clear sound across both the front soundbar and rear channels. Dolby Digital and DTS support bring dynamic, multi-channel audio to movies, sports, and music, while dual front tweeters sharpen dialogue and high-frequency detail. The 18cm subwoofer handles deep bass, and all cabling routes neatly into it, keeping your setup tidy rather than trailing wires across the room.
Connectivity covers HDMI (with ARC, so a single cable handles both audio and your TV remote), optical audio, Bluetooth for wireless music streaming, and USB playback for local files — genuinely flexible for however you use your home entertainment setup.
