    Don’t buy new large screen TVs without a sound bar. And make sure to buy a wireless sub. It made the TV programs come alive! And have the Geek Squad set it all up for you. You will not be sorry!

      Hi Johnny, We're very happy to hear this feedback! With 200 W of deep bass sound from a powerful 160 mm driver, this bass reflex subwoofer boosts the impact of everything you watch and listen to. Feel the deep rumble of thunder and heavy bass beats without distortion. You’ll also hear clearer voices and extra fidelity for truly authentic soundtracks. This wireless subwoofer gives you a more cinematic surround sound experience. Thank you for choosing SONY! -Sam Sony_US

    Bought this along with the Sony 5 channel soundbar. The bass on this thing is powerful and smooth. The low ends are beautiful. Great for movies and music.

      Hi napomar, You've made a great choice! We're glad you like the powerful 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.

    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. Thanks for choosing Sony! -Sam Sony_US

    Adds just the depth one needs to the Sony sounder without overwhelming the room and the ease of set-up with other Sony products is a joy. The fact that it can pretty much be placed anywhere is a plus and the bluetooth is good.

    This bass module is just enough for my needs. I don't want heart pounding bass as it would disturb my condo neighbors. This unit gives enough to make you feel the movies you are watching and enough to make the sound coming from the sound bar a lot fuller.
