Great sound
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I would have given more 5 stars if the bass frequency cut off would have more numbers on it. I wanted to place it at 80 but since there is no indicator at that range I had to guess. Some audio experts may do this by ear by playing with the adjustment knob but I am not that good.

Posted .Hello Jtechman,
Thank you so much for your feedback!
We are really thrilled to hear you are happy and satisfied with the exceptional bass sound quality of our SA-CS9 115W 10” Active Subwoofer- and that you purchased two for your STR-DH790.
We greatly appreciate your feedback with the auto power off/on feature of this subwoofer. If there is no signal input for a few minutes, the POWER indicator lights up in red and the subwoofer enters power-saving mode. To turn off this power-saving mode, slide the POWER SAVE switch on the rear panel to OFF.
You’re going to love the room-filling sound that Mica-Reinforced drivers can deliver. You’ll experience deeper, more precise bass reproduction than ever before and be amazed as your music and movies come alive!
Thank you so much for purchasing two our SA-CS9 and for choosing Sony!

- Pros mentioned:Sound quality
Great sound and great value.
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a solid subwoofer with a great sound. I'm using a Pioneer receiver and my other 5 speakers are Infiinity and they all work well together. My only complaint is I like to turn of the subwoofer when I watch something in the middle of the night and there is no power switch. So I have to unplug it.

Posted .Hi JohnM,
Thanks for commenting! We are so happy to hear you are enjoying the amazing bass sound quality of our SA-CS9 115W 10” Active Subwoofer. We appreciate your feedback with the power switch. The SA-CS9 actually has a power button on the rear panel that you can press to turn on/off the unit. It also features an auto power on/off function. If there is no signal input for a few minutes, the POWER indicator lights up in red and the subwoofer enters power-saving mode. And while in this mode a signal is input to the subwoofer, the subwoofer automatically turns on. This feature can also be turned off by sliding the POWER SAVE switch on the rear panel of the subwoofer to OFF.

Good Quality Good Price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought it to add a second subwoofer to my existing Sony sound system. It works well with the old Sony subwoofer on the opposite side of the room. It has a new feature, a frequency filter, which I set to full range to get the best sound.

Great for price.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the price these are great. My only complaint is they are sensitive on the controls. Can go from no bass to too much quickly. Also wish they had an auto off that turned off after 20 min of non-use....the auto setting on them does not work well.

Recommended for Smaller Spaces
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Item works well, but lacks the punch required to fill the air in a large room. If you are on a budget, and need punch in a small space, this is a perfect low-cost option.
