sony core series 115 watt active subwoofer
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This 10 inch active sony subwoofer is a great addition to my home theater, it has outstanding performance for such a small price. I had checked others before buying this unit. The price was double and the power and build materials were not worth the extra money. You can buy 2 of these for the price of one, if your amplifier supports a .2 subwoofer connection.

Good sound without breaking the bank
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This powered sub sounds great in my small living room. I really like the auto-on feature, though sometimes it turns off during quiet parts in movies and then you can hear it click on before the bass resumes. Overall I am very happy with the sub.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent sub, particularly at the price point. Powerful enough for my small living room system. Only complaint was one of the grill posts was broken off inside the whole when I got it. Not a bit enough deal to warrant a return, but a bit annoying still.

BOOMING sound
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Added this subwoofer to my Sony projector and Sony receiver in my media room and couldn't be happier. Really like that the bass is adjustable. Make note that this may require a "Y" connector depending on your system set up. Overall happy with this purchase.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am not disappointed with this sub-woofer, so if that was Sony's intent, then it is a win for them. Nor am I impressed, which is what I was hoping for, so my loss. In all fairness, it was about the least expensive sub you can buy and still do some damage with it. It does get loud enough and fills out the bottom end when listening at low to moderate levels. It is not, however, very musical. I have a 40 year background in high spl car stereo's as well as live sound reinforcement so perhaps my expectations are too high. Good little unit, feels kinda cheap and I think it could benefit from a heavy dose of fiber fill. It sounds very "boomy" with little self control. Probably great for a kids/game room to make video games more exciting. I bought it based on it's price and claimed frequency response, high volume wasn't necessary for this application. It is installed in a customer waiting/show room for a memorial dealer that I put two Klipsch 8" ceiling speakers in powered by a small Onkyo 2 channel amp. At the low volume levels of the environment, the bottom from the Klipsch's just wasn't there so I sought to add just a touch of love. Just too harsh a sound. It is an inexpensive sub and it isn't bad value for the money, but for $100 bucks more (less if you find a sale), a 10" Klipsch sub is a much better value dollar for dollar. Not saying a person shouldn't buy this; for video games and explosions in movies, it would definitely make you happier about your sound bar purchase, but for musical precision in a well laid out yet budget conscious system, just don't. It's not a matter of getting what you pay for; in that department the Sony delivers in spades. It's just a matter of knowing what to expect. I hope this review helps you to.

Posted .Hi JoeE,
Thank you for taking the time to write such an in-depth review of your experience with the SA-CS9. We are thrilled to know your satisfaction with the overall performance of this subwoofer for its price. We greatly appreciate your input when using the subwoofer for music playback. Depending on the audio source, the bass sound of our SA-CS9 may not be so noticeable. However, you may try adjusting the LEVEL control (clockwise) to turn the volume up of the subwoofer so that you can hear the bass sound a little more than before. You may also find different sources will perform better than others due to different types of audio compression and transmission.
With the SA-CS9, you can fully realize the depth of all your movie soundtracks, compatible with High-Resolution Audio. Immerse yourself in a deep, responsive low to mid-range with the mica-reinforced cone, and enjoy enhanced audio clarity thanks to the Bass Reflex design.
Thank you for your purchase and for choosing Sony!

Sony subwoofer
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great subwoofer for the price. My living room is HUGE , however watching movies sounds good. Didnt want to break the bank to much with grabbing a really expensive sub so found thia one on sale. $149 money well spent snd does the job. My possibly grab one more to fill in more space. Plug and play, you dont need anything additional to plug up
