Description

Sony SS-CS5 3-Way Bookshelf Speakers 100W Pair Like New

A highly regarded and surprisingly capable 3-way bookshelf speaker from Sony’s CS series, the SS-CS5 delivers clear, transparent, wide-range sound that consistently punches above its class — in like-new condition.

The SS-CS5 stands out in the crowded budget bookshelf market by using a genuine 3-way, 3-driver design where most competitors offer only 2-way configurations. Sony pairs a 5.25-inch Mica Reinforced Cellular (MRC) cone woofer with both a 1-inch soft dome tweeter and a 0.75-inch wide-dispersion super tweeter — the dual tweeter arrangement being the key to the SS-CS5’s notably airy, extended, and coherent high-frequency performance that reviewers consistently single out. The MRC woofer cone combines rigidity and low mass for accurate, controlled midrange and bass reproduction, while the rear-firing bass reflex port extends low-frequency response cleanly down to 53 Hz. Independent reviews describe the sound as transparent and naturally tonal, with seamless driver integration, vibrant and accurate highs, and smooth, enveloping midrange that works beautifully for vocals, classical, jazz, and rock.

The SS-CS5 is voice-matched to the full Sony CS series including the SS-CS3 towers, SS-CS8 centre channel, and SS-CSEM2 Atmos speakers, making it a natural fit as the rear surround pair in a complete Sony CS home theater system — or equally at home as a standalone stereo bookshelf pair for music listening.

Sony began in Tokyo in 1946, founded by Masaru Ibuka and Akio Morita, and it helped bring the world the Walkman and the compact disc. We carry Sony stereo and AV receivers, CD players, cassette decks, amplifiers and speakers. We've had more than 220 Sony listings so far, covering more than 185 different models. Every used Sony here is inspected, tested and serviced as required, then photographed in-house and covered by our Bumper-to-Bumper Warranty and Perpetual Trade-Back Program. Don't see the model you want? Tell us on First Dibs and we'll email you when one arrives.

Sony models we've sold more than once include the TC-K61 cassette deck, the CDP-CE305 and CDP-C335 CD players, the STR-DA5700ES AV receiver and the STR-4800SD stereo receiver.

The Sony story, 1946 to today

Masaru Ibuka and Akio Morita founded Tokyo Tsushin Kogyo ("Totsuko") in Tokyo in 1946, growing out of a radio repair business Ibuka had started the year before. The company was renamed Sony in 1958.

Tape and transistors. The G-model tape recorder of 1950 is described as Japan's first, and the TR-55 transistor radio of 1955 was the first Sony-branded product.

ES. Sony describes the TA-1120 integrated amplifier of 1965 as the first all-silicon-transistor stereo amplifier and dates its ES ("Elevated Standard") line from it.

Walkman and CD. The Walkman went on sale in Japan in July 1979. Sony worked with Philips on the compact disc, and Sony's CDP-101 was among the first CD players on sale in Japan in October 1982. Sony still makes ES AV receivers.

Which Sony is which?

STR receivers: stereo receivers from the late 1960s on, such as the STR-6120, and later AV receivers, including ES models.

TA amplifiers and ES separates: from the TA-1120 to the TA-E86 preamplifier and TA-N86 power amplifier (1978).

CDP CD players: from the CDP-101 (1982) and CDP-701ES (1983) to changers such as the CDP-CE305 and CDP-C335 we sell often.

TC tape decks: reel-to-reel recorders until 1985, and cassette decks such as the TC-K61 and the three-head TC-K777ES.

SS speakers: such as the SS-G7 floorstanders of 1978.

Buying used Sony: what to check

CD players. Open and close the drawer several times; hesitation can be an early sign of trouble. Laser pickups wear, skipping is a symptom, and tray belts age.

Cassette decks. Belts dry out and cause slipping or uneven playback, and worn heads dull the sound. Run fast-forward and rewind, and check Dolby.

Amplifiers and receivers. Noisy switches and dirty relay contacts cause many faults, and bias settings drift with age. On tuners, look for blown bulbs and broken dial cords.

Everything we list is inspected, tested and serviced as required here, and comes with our warranty.
