Can you do a video on headphones? Compare the overall best wireless and wired headphones sound quality wise and compare the wired headphones and the wireless and compare them to eachother to find out if you should pay extra for wired (obviously better). Eg. Sennheiser hd800s and beyerdynamic dt1990 pro, sony wh-1000xm5 and airpods max

[@ThisIsTechToday]

@@Ozakayaadaeasy, wired more easily sounds better and for less money.

[@RinkrattHockey]

I just bought this sound bar and the SA-RS5 speakers and it’s amazing

[@harry3837]

this feels like one giant sponsor video

[@harry3837]

oh it is, who would have thought

[@Undeadwolfy_]

Infredible production quality and attention to detail in this review Brandon. Really appreciate the extra effort you went to to try and demonstrate the sound. Also the B Roll with each specific feature you demonstrate. You review really deserves much more exposure. Its great to watch someone talk about something they're passionate about as its often the best of their content.

[@ThisIsTechToday]

Thank you so much! I appreciate the kind words so much. I definitely worked really hard on this one, so I’m glad to hear it was beneficial to you. Please share it with others. It helps a lot. 🙏

[@Peterstarzynskitech]

That thing sounds amazing. It's better than a movie theater.

[@ThisIsTechToday]

It does sound amazing. The immersion is insane. Not sure about better than a movie theater though. They have way more subs. 😂

[@Peterstarzynskitech]

@@ThisIsTechToday I thought it sounded better than a theater. But that's just me. Lol

[@ThisIsTechToday]

Haha. That's some good feedback!

[@spideyhack462]

@@ThisIsTechToday not better but it's equal.... Because we can't understand what the difference.... That's why iam using Sony soundbar I watch all movies in my Sony ... Its an incredible sound system it's bass on another level 💀

[@neirad537]

[@josephkol120]

Thanks for the wonderful review. You showed every piece I hv wished for !!! No clue when will I be able to afford it !!

[@debajithalder2109]

Perfect for Movie watching ❤

[@harshitbansal5802]

Hey man. Have you also tried the Bose Ultra Soundbar? If yes then which one would be the pick out if these two?

[@diljithvenadan9914]

Which one is better Samsung q990D or theater bar 9 for LG G4 TV ?

[@ThisIsTechToday]

I definitely think Sony 360 Spatial Sound Mapping is better for immersion, so I’d pick that. Both will need a sub to fill it out, so I wouldn’t base the low end off of the bar alone.

[@Samzep]

Q990d no brainer and cheaper 😊

[@wellyboot]

There’s issues for those of us without a Sony tv, mainly 360 Spatial Mapping placing sounds incorrectly (LPCM is notably bad especially when gaming), the bass seems to disappear and ambient effects are crushed leading to less immersive sound stages. I gather people with Bravia TVs aren’t having the issues when center sync is used. Quad owners are also reporting similar issues.

[@gemjarv]

Get a Sony tv you muppet Why tf would you get a Sony sound bar if you don’t have the tv. Ever heard of acoustic centre sync? Voice zoom? No? Sony shouldn’t waste time and resources making their tech work with lesser brands

[@craigmiceli]

Did you use acoustic center sync with your tests (like voice zoom) or just the soundbar? Do you know if the theater bar 9 caused the tv hissing issues like the a7000 with acoustic sync?

[@ThisIsTechToday]

Acoustic center sync was active. No hissing is heard from what I can tell.

[@davidniositech]

What sounds better, this combination or the Sony Quad?

[@GoddardEmpire]

Have you tried the Sony Theatre Quad? Its the best thing I've heard in a long while, good immersive sound experience too.

[@dmarable79]

Hi! What is your take on the Bravia theater 9 vs the HT-A7000 soundbar that preceeded it?

[@ThisIsTechToday]

It’s much smaller and cleaner looking, that’s for sure! I think it also only has nine speakers compared to the Bravia 9s thirteen, which means it doesn’t have as many phantom speaker points for me precise immersion and separation of sound compared to the theater bar 9. Also, the voice zoom works shockingly good on the Theater Bar 9. It all depends on how you feel about each of those and if they matter to you!

[@mareknowakowski1692]

I can tell you, that Bar 9 is way more better than A7000-had both of them, sold one and left Bar 9 and I'm super happy with it.

[@gixi430]

Hey !Can you help me with a question since you know far more than me?I prioritize ANC and comfort and I have these options;(edifier WH950NB, sony wh750b, 1more sonoflow, anker soundcore q30 and space one)what option is better?you can sugest something else if you know

[@ThisIsTechToday]

Probably one of the Sony’s if ANC is a notable factor.

[@RishitSharma-ly2xt]

Can not afford it now but great video

[@ThisIsTechToday]

Thanks! Maybe someday. At least you know more about this setup and can see if it’s a good fit for you when the time comes. 😊

[@drewpainter1384]

Would I notice a difference if I upgraded to it from my Sony HTC 5000

[@toxxproduction]

@@drewpainter1384 yeah

[@HouseofJustize]

Can you connect your older sony wireless subwoofer to the theater bar 8 or 9 ??

[@ThisIsTechToday]

I think so. What model is it?

U need to review the new bowers & wilkins pi8

[@ThisIsTechToday]

I don't have any plans to. They're welcome to reach out to me and maybe there will be an opportunity, but I'm trying to catch up on backlogged content and new content already + I am not spending money on it.

[@kiachehreh1127]

Why it does not show the change between sound fields like Movie, Music, Cinema...?

[@v_xifyy]

can u make a comparison between the new galaxy buds 3 pro and the AirPods Pro 2 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@ThisIsTechToday]

It’s definitely in the works where I compare four earbuds together! Anything specific you want me to look into?

[@v_xifyy]

@@ThisIsTechToday differences in sound signatures would be nice

[@ThisIsTechToday]

Definitely doing that. Anything else?

[@ufomism]

What size is the Bravia 9? 85?

[@Ekunayo]

How about Bravia Theater quad?

[@ThisIsTechToday]

I have them but am working on getting to opening them and setting them up. Been pretty busy!

[@Ekunayo]

​@ThisIsTechToday understand it but interesting that more better between this one?

Why can't u try the new oneplus buds pro 3

Working on a video on them now. 👍

[@ketanxkolhe]

Please do a Sennheiser momentum 4 review

[@ThisIsTechToday]

I’d like to, but time is limited and there are so many new releases. Maybe if it’s in a slower season or I can wedge it in with another release.

[@kamenshepard1110]

Are you going to review the Pi8 by B&W?

[@ThisIsTechToday]

Probably not. If they want to send me things to review, I'll consider it, but I have no plans to buy it. There's plenty to review, and I don't have enough time as is. 😅
