Review of the Sony HTA9 and a solution to the sound cutting off(FINALLY FIXED!) 

good video. Thanks for the heads-up👍

Since they have the latest update it screw up all the connection settings, that’s quite hurting making a hole on your tv stand, with the idea you did, i bought a laptop cooling fan, and will connect it on my ps5, i placed my sub underneath the Tv stand in front of the TV, definitely loving this HTA9 , every time i watch movies or listen to music it feels like you’re in the theatre.

Thanks for the video, didn’t know about the heatflow. I use a Hue SyncBox, is it better to plug the ps5 into sync box - sync box into hta9 - tv, or just plug the hta9 into the tv?😅

Nice idea using the fan. I wonder if there's a mount for this system yet with a build in fan. They make some for Apple TVs but this box is definitely bigger.

I just got the HT A9 for Christmas and so far I haven't had any drop outs yet, that has been my single most concern before buying the A9, that and that it sounds better than the system that I was replacing and after being with this system for three weeks now, I'm still not sure. I like the A9 but I'm still not wowed yet. The A9 is being replaced by a Roku sound bar pro with a sub and 4 surround speakers which makes it a 5.1 surround sound system that I've had about 4 years but wanted to upgrade. While watching your video as you talk about the hub getting hot, I just checked mine and although it's warm it doesn't seem to be hot, especially hot enough to keep it cool with a fan, but,if it's working for you.

Definitely worth a try. Can you keep proving updates on the solution via the comments below. I always had a feeling it was because of too many devices in the room and the router being close by. I keep devices limited in the room and the router has been moved which pretty much worked for a long time but recently the cut outs are back. If you provide an update maybe a month from today, I may just get a laptop cooling pad and place the connect box on it.

Had mine about 6 weeks ..lots of drop outs. The RF on off can work but is not consistent. However the last week... No drop outs! I don't think anything works. It's random. One day you think it's fixed next day it's back!

Do you have the expensive subwoofer and is it worth it?

Nice video, except that it is way too dark. One cannot even see most of the content in the video.

Is there a solution to this problem?

Hi! There is a fan inside the A9 box. Maybe it's faulty? Can you hear that it works? Another solution is to put feet on the unit, enough height so it doesn't gather heat and since the unit already has its own fan, this should work. Another solution Is if you turn off all wifi and Bluetooth units in the room then turn on the A9 units and let them play a movie for about 5 min. Then turn on the wifi, this way the wifi will find other channels for wifi use as it will see the A9 already uses some channels and will avoid them in the future. No need for a restart. Also, why don't you use the eARC for your units?, just connect everything to your tv, the tv handles all and passes through Atmos and DTS x to your A9. This way you don't overload the A9 box with a 4k and HDR signal, maybe that's why the box gets hot? Anyway, cheers and good solution!

It s cutting off too /( grrr have to check what u said to solve

try to turn the box over🤣

The reason it cuts out, Is because it's wireless.
