    Excellent low-end sound. It feels and sounds like I’m at the movie theatre. Simple and easy to pair. A little larger than expected but it is wireless and can be placed inconspicuously.

    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.

      Hi ChristopherB, we're glad you are enjoying our product! 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.

    It's a great little sub for a smallish room. You don't have to blast the soundbar to get some good base. If you're looking for some loudness and deeper base, I'd go with it's bigger cousin.

    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.

    Works perfectly. Please, please do your research with what this is compatible with. May not connect to general bluetooth. My opinion would be to buy this only if your receiver specifically lists this item for connecting purposes

    Not bad but for pairing with the big Bravia theater bar the 500 sub blows this away. It’s worth a try to see if it fits your application, and Best Buy is great to deal with as far as returning products. Give it a try and see if it works and if you need to upgrade go for the 500, I guarantee you won’t be disappointed with that one.

      Hi ErikM, Thank you for your review and feedback on the SASW3 subwoofer. We appreciate your insights and are glad to hear that you found it worth trying. The SASW3 is designed to deliver deep bass and enhance your home theater experience, especially when paired with compatible Sony soundbars. However, we understand that for some users, the SASW5 subwoofer might offer a more powerful performance, particularly when paired with larger setups like the Bravia theater bar.
