    I have a sound bar and subwoofer in another room that costs half the price and sounds twice as good. I was led to beleive that a subwoofer was included because that is how the system was demonstrated. Very disappointed and will probably return it.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

      Hi JosephS, We're sorry to hear about your disappointment. Unfortunately, the Sony HTA9000 does not come with an external subwoofer. However, it has built-in quad woofers and passive radiators, the Bar 9 generates the type of deep, resonant bass you’d expect from much larger speakers. We hope you'd still consider our other products in your next purchase. Regards, -Craig Sony_US
