    This wireless sub connect to its sound bar wirelessly with no pb. Very easy. But the sub itself did not impress meyou can hear the bass but it lack of presence. I guess it is okay for Netflix. Butnif you looking for a very powerful sbwoofer, get something more robust!!

      Hi Regba, Thank you for the feedback on your experience with your SASW3. While we're glad you like that it connect seamlessly with your soundbar, we regret to hear you feel that it lacks in power.
      To resolve this issue, please refer to the following troubleshooting steps:
      Press SW volume + or BASS + on the remote control of a soundbar to increase the subwoofer volume.
      Set the night mode to off using the remote control of your soundbar.
      If the input sources contain very little bass sound components (i.e., a TV broadcast), the sound from the subwoofer may be difficult to hear. You can check the subwoofer sound by emitting the test tone.

      If you are unable to resolve your concern, please email us at socialsupport@am.sony.com with the following details:

      Thank you for sharing your feedback on the SA-SW3 subwoofer, RichardC! We appreciate your thoughts and are glad to hear you enjoyed the experience overall. The SA-SW3 is engineered to deliver rich and balanced bass that complements your home audio system, but if you’re looking for a bit more thunder, we have a few tips that might help you get the most out of your subwoofer:

      - Make sure the subwoofer’s volume and bass settings are adjusted to your preference through your Sony sound system’s controls.
      - Positioning can make a big difference—try moving the subwoofer closer to a wall or corner to naturally enhance low-frequency response.
      - Ensure all firmware and system updates are installed on your Sony soundbar or receiver to take advantage of the latest enhancements.

      If you want even deeper bass, you might also consider the SA-SW5 for a higher wattage option within our lineup. For any further questions or setup tips, we’re here to help. Thank you for choosing Sony and sharing your experience with us!

      Best regards,
      Gus
