Excellent subwoofer
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This wireless sub has good range, zero sound lag, and great bass. I considered going with the larger model but living in an apartment on the third floor…this thing is plenty loud.

Works Seamlessly
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ordered the floor model reboxed and it looked new, no scratches, marks, etc. and it works just as described and pairs seamlessly with my Sony HT-A9 sound system. Saved $100 by ordering this open box item.

Too pricey for the performance it gives
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I own a home theater 7.2 in my living room and I bought the bar 8 for my bedroom and I chose this subwoofer to go with it. The bass it delivers is the same as a bar with subwoofer of 200 dollars, the bass is not real clean as others perform, my polk subwoofer in my living room cost me 200 dollars more but out performs this sony subwoofer by 20 times at least. I love how the bar 8 sounds but this subwoofer not a good match, maybe the other one that cost 700 will do justice

Posted .Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback, JuniorH.
We are happy to hear that you love the sound of your new Bravia Theatre Bar 8! However, we are sorry to hear that the SA-SW3 subwoofer isn't providing the deep, clean bass response you’ve come to expect from your home theater experience.
Since you are used to a high-performing 7.2 system, we understand your desire for that extra "punch." The SA-SW3 is designed to be a compact solution, but for a more immersive, room-shaking performance that matches the Bar 8's premium capabilities, many of our users do find that the SA-SW5 (with its larger driver and higher output) is the perfect step up.
We appreciate your honest comparison and will share your feedback regarding the bass clarity with our engineering team. If you'd like to discuss settings to optimize your current setup, please feel free to reach out to us here: https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US&category=ht.
Thank you for choosing Sony!
Best regards, Gus, Sony Social Media Team
Plenty of bass!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm using this subwoofer with a Sony HT-A5000 sound bar in a 20x24 living room with a vaulted ceiling. For most listening, the bass is set at about half power (easy to do with the remove). When combined with the sound bar, it fills the room with all-around bass.

Posted .Hi paconurmi, Thank yo for the awesome review! We're glad it works seamlessly with your Sony HT-A5000 and you like the room-filling bass this unit delivers. We hope that the 200 watts of power is successfully filling your room with deep, rich bass. Make sure to run Sound Field Optimization through your paired A-Series audio system so that the subwoofer calibrates its performance to the surrounding environment. Thank you for choosing Sony! -Sam
Awesome Sony System
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Awesome Rear speakers. Works really well with the Sony 5000 sound bar and SW3 Sub woofer. I set up 360 Spatial Sound and the whole system works really great. I replaced a Bose Lifestyle V20 system because it caused a problem with our Sony OLED tv.

Sony Subwoofer: 200 Watts
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is paired with my HTA-5000 system and rear surround satellite speakers. I was debating getting this, but found a good open-box deal and it does add substantially to providing bass response. I had to repair all the speakers manually, rather than the new speaker just being automatically connected, or just being able to pair the new speaker.

Great subwoofers
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A must pair with the soundbar since it will give the great lows and the boom effect for movies and music. Make sure there are no obstructions between the sub and soundbar as you will get popping and knocking sounds from interference since these are wireless subs.

This wireless subwoofer gives you a more cinematic surround sound experience. Thanks for choosing SONY. ~Earl

Why did I wait
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This thing adds so much to the surround. The base is a lot better than I thoght it would be. Sitting 10ft away from the woofer I can feel the base through the couch and its on the default settings

Good addition to the sound bar & HDTV
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This subwoofer was a good addition to the Sony sound bar & HDTV I purchased at the same time. The reverberations are good additions to many of the sounds on the screen. I just have to be careful not to scare the other apartments in my complex.
