Hi Walshy776, Awesome! We are glad to hear that you are happy with your new HTA5000! Thank you for choosing Sony! -Carl

Thanks for the feedback, Nikki. We're glad that you like your new Sony sound bar. The HT-A5000 has 5.1.2 channels and X-Balanced speaker units minimize distortion while the up-firing speakers and beam tweeters fill the room to give an ultra-immersive listening experience. Built-in subwoofers provide an additional boost to low end frequencies. Vertical Surround Engine and S-Force Pro Front Surround creates immersive sound from all around, while Dolby Atmos® and DTS:X® lend a more realistic, multi-dimensional sound to your content. Thanks for choosing Sony! -Craig

Hi AmberM, That's awesome! We are thrilled to know that you like the sound quality of your Sony soundbar. Thank you for your purchase. Enjoy! Vincent

That's wonderful, chargerboy87! We're glad that you are enjoying your new Sony sound bar. We hope that between some of our premium audio technologies such as Vertical Surround Engine and S-Force Pro Front Surround, you feel like you are not only in a sphere of sound, but inside the movie itself. To ensure that you are getting the most out of your HT-A5000, make sure to run Sound Field Optimization so that the soundbar can calibrate its performance to your environment, and that it sounds like it was engineered to be in your room. If you want to expand your audio system, please take a look at our optional subwoofer and rears accessories (SA-SW5,SA-SW3,SA-RS3S). We also appreciate your feedback about the subwoofer and surround speakers. Unfortunately those are sold separately. Thank you for choosing Sony! -Sam
