Sony ES Speakers

Because You Care About Music

™

When Sony engineers set out to design a new line of loudspeakers,

they had the speciﬁc goal to recreate the experience of hearing

music performed in a live venue, the way it expresses the emotions of

its creator without the addition of artiﬁcial eccentricities. They strove

to make the listener feel the music, just as if it were being played, with

natural dynamism and airiness. And that’s exactly what they have

achieved with the new Sony ES loudspeakers, elegantly and simply.

A heritage of unparalleled listening experience

Applauded for its power, authority, clarity,

and outstanding detail, the award winning

Sony AR Series loudspeakers created a music

reproduction revolution. And now the Sony

ES loudspeaker series combines many of the

technological advancements of its legendary

siblings while adding some of its own. The result

is a revelation of dynamic musical honesty.

A major leap forward in natural sound

Thanks to numerous technological

advancements, Sony ES loudspeakers deliver a

more lifelike listening experience through highly

accurate alignment and increased dispersion

of all frequencies. A key component to this

achievement is the innovative I-Array™ tweeter

system that captures the ambience of original

recordings without adding any unnatural

artifacts to the sound.

Inherited strength

Building on the Sony AR Series’ legacy of rock-

solid loudspeaker construction, Sony ES

loudspeakers feature cabinets made of

Scandinavian birch, a wood highly regarded for

its acoustic resonance and performance,

by craftsmen trained in the traditional Japanese

methods of woodworking. Within, the woofer

is isolated from other drivers by two distinct

separation boards to preserve the critical sonic

purity of the mid range frequencies. Sony

relies on experts in Japan’s ﬁnest woodworking

techniques to meticulously craft each

precise enclosure to a degree of per fection

that’s as pleasing to the eye as it is to the ear.
