On Monday, we reported on a new sound bar, the Sony HT-RT5. What makes it different than previous sound bars out there is that it offers true 5.1 surround sound and not simulated surround sound, thanks to its rear wireless speakers. Though mums been the word on a North American release, Sony has revealed some of its specs though it’s not as extensive as our usual pieces. Sony will likely release more information as we near its mid-July release.

After the jump, the Sony Sound bar HT-RT5 specs await.

2015 is shaping up to be a good year for those looking at different sound bar options. Sony has already revealed a host of new units with many supporting 4K output and Hi-Res Audio. As beautiful, powerful, and sleek as they may be, the sticking point for some home theater enthusiasts remains that, no matter the brand, a sound bar is merely replicating a surround sound experience and isn’t true to what’s being offered by our games and movies.

Enter the Sony Sound Bar HT-RT5 with rear wireless speakers that might finally offer the convenience and experience we’ve all wanted.
