    Overall it’s a good sound system. On its own it wouldn’t pass 3 stars. The Subwoofer is a MUST. It does reach 4 stars if it’s Paired up with a Sub and rear speakers as well as a Sony Tv that can act as a center speaker. It will sound more “mutted” than the A5000 but cranking up the bass and volume will definitely fix that. The Bravia App is a must for adjustments and updates. if you have WiFi connectivity you won’t have to rely on a USB to add updates.
