Customers are saying

Customers express satisfaction with the Core Series 10" 115W Active Subwoofer, particularly praising its great sound quality and powerful bass. The subwoofer's awesome price, ease of use, and small size are also appreciated. A minor concern is the cable length, with some customers wishing for a longer connection cable option.

    Purchased the whole Sony Core Series set over the holidays on sale, for the price nothing compares. If you can get it on sale, don't hesitate! The bass from this is unbelievable if setup correctly.

    We purchased this subwoofer after reading several reviews for what we were looking for in our home theatre/living room to go with our projector tv. It is awesome! The quality and sound is amazing!

    Clean sound, decent bass and does what is supposed to in its price range. I would though if you can spend more have other suggestions and believe the sub-woofer in a home theater setting is where you will get the most bang for your buck.

    I needed a little something more to give my home stereo the theatre experience and it performed very well. Plugged right into my stereo (with the provided cable) and power, that was it. It also lets you adjust the amount of base that you want. I recommend if you need a little extra base.

    Great value for a subwoofer that adds deep bass for movies and music in our bonus room. I keep the unit on because sometimes it turns off if the volume is low and has a hard time kicking back on.

    When you experience the lower end human hearing action movies take on a sense of realism. This sub provides that sound you can only get in a movie theatre or at a live concert.

      Hi Controller, we're glad you like our product. SA-CS9 gives you deep, rich bass from this powerful active subwoofer, and it includes a built-in amplifier with up to 115 W power output. The unit is powerful and compact, perfect for easy installation in tight spots. Because of the reduced baffle area, the speaker minimizes sound field distortion for optimum clarity and precision. Thank you for choosing SONY. ~Earl Sony_US
