High-resolution audio equipment
You hear every subtle detail when listening to any of the speakers, music players, Walkmans or amplifiers in the Sony line of hi-res audio equipment. High-resolution audio parts change the way people listen to their favorite music the same way high-definition video changed the movie watching experience. High-resolution audio is digitally lossless, meaning the digital format sounds identical to the original analog source. A higher sampling rate is the key difference between high-resolution audio and standard CD formats. A CD sampling frequency is 44.1 kHz, but high-resolution audio sampling frequency is between 88.2 and 192 kHz.
Create a home theater experience
Sony manufactures products outside of audio equipment such as televisions and Blu-ray players that make it easy to create an entire home theater experience using components designed to work together. Its standard DVD home theater system uses a 300-watt amplifier to power six speakers. On the high-end side, Sony produces hi-res Blu-ray theater systems that combine the hi-res audio format with wireless speakers, Bluetooth technology, Wi-Fi streaming and a Blu-ray player.
Repairs keep the sound alive
If you want to avoid replacing your entire home theater system, maintain the system and make repairs along the way. Find the individual stereo equipment parts online using Sears PartsDirect. You can also find manuals and repair diagrams available.
