Since September 18, Sony has therefore offered a firmware update for its Sony HT-A5000/Sony HT-A7000 and HT-A9 soundbars (click on this last reference, pictured below, to discover the test complete product by the editorial staff of AVCesar.com) allowing their compatibility with the variable refresh rate, VRR, and Auto Low Latency mode, ALLM, two features very appreciated by owners of a PC Gaming, PS4 and/or Xbox Series S/X.
HDMI 2.1 and Pass-Through, the winning combo of 2.1 sources
Already capable of handling Ultra HD 4K HFR signals, i.e. 4K/120 Hz, this trio of soundbars is now perfect for new generation video game enthusiasts. Especially when you consider that most TVs only have two HDMI 2.1 VRR/ALLM and 4K/120 inputs. The arrival of VRR and ALLM on these soundbars therefore allows, via their Pass-Through function, to find two fully operational HDMI inputs with the 2.1 standard.
