Saudi National Day at Home with Sony: Sound, Screen and Everything in Between

Not every Saudi National Day celebration needs to happen outside. Sometimes, the best moments are the ones that happen at home, when the living room slowly becomes the center of everything. Extra chairs are pulled in, food keeps making its way to the table, and before you know it, everyone has gathered in the same space. The mood changes throughout the day too. The afternoon might be full of music and conversation, things slow down around sunset, and then pick back up again later in the evening. That is where having the right setup makes a difference. It is less about one big piece of tech and more about having the right sound, screen and entertainment for every part of the celebration, so the atmosphere carries through from the first gathering to the last.

ULT TOWER 5 To make anywhere a stage

The loudest part of the day rarely stays in one place. It might start in the living room, move out to the garden, and end up wherever everyone decides to gather. The ULT Tower 5 is built to move with it, with a newly developed circular woofer delivering deep bass you can really feel, along with multiple sound modes to suit different moments throughout the day. With up to 20 hours of battery life, IPX4 water resistance, integrated carry handles and a mic input for those inevitable sing-along moments, it is made for celebrations that keep going.

Available from 1 October, with pricing to be confirmed.

WH–1000XM6 For the hour in between

Between the afternoon and the evening there’s always a gap. The drive across town, the last errand before guests arrive, the half hour someone takes for themselves. The WH-1000XM6 is built for exactly that stretch, using Sony’s most advanced noise cancelling yet to quiet whatever’s happening around you, while its redesigned sound brings out richer vocals and more defined instruments in a song you’ve heard a hundred times. It also reads your surroundings and adjusts on its own, so the sound stays steady whether you’re in the car or walking through a crowd with a soft and pressure-free headband keeps it comfortable for as long as the day runs.

BRAVIA 7 II Where everyone finds the same room

By evening the celebration comes indoors and the screen becomes the center of it. The BRAVIA 7 II is one of Sony’s first TVs to control red, green and blue light separately, which means color stays rich and true even with every light in the room on and every seat taken. The picture holds up from the far end of the sofa just as well as from the middle, so nobody ends up with the bad view. It comes in sizes from 65 all the way up to 98 inches, and a transparent center stand gives it a floating, cable-free look that sits well in the room even when nothing’s playing.

BRAVIA Theatre Trio when the sound catches up to the screen

A big screen without the sound to match only gets you halfway. The BRAVIA Theatre Trio is a wireless three-speaker system built for large screens, with three speakers working together to open the sound out across the whole space instead of firing it at one seat. On a night when everyone is gathered in front of the same screen, that’s what carries the celebration to every corner of the space, with voices staying clear enough that nobody in the back has to ask what was just said. It’s the difference between watching the evening and sitting inside it.

BRAVIA Theatre Bar 9 For cinema sound without filling the room

Not every room needs a full speaker setup to feel bigger. The BRAVIA Theatre Bar 9 keeps things simple with a single soundbar that uses 360 Spatial Sound Mapping to create a wider surround experience around the room, so the sound feels less like it is coming from one place under the TV. With support for Dolby Atmos and DTS, it adds more depth to films, music and everything playing on screen, while still keeping the setup clean when the living room is already full of guests.
