    The Bravia 9 sound bar is an excellent compliment to my 75 inch Bravia 7 TV. It is typically easy to set-up, but in some cases the integration with a cable box can be complicated.

    I have the bar paired with the RS5 rear speakers and the SA-SW5 300W subwoofer. The sound is amazing. It takes a little while to get everything set up and optimized, but the overall 3d sound field sounds great.

    Works great overall, app doesn't pick up sub woofers such as the SW3 immediately, it is embedded which distracts from the physical hardwork and tuning of the device.
