Great for small rooms or apartments
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I read all the reviews and was tempted to buy the bigger SWS5 unit. I bought this unit because I live in an apartment. I found out that this was the right decision. Out of respect for my neighbors I routinely have to turn the volume down as this puts out quite a bit of sound. Hooked up seamlessly and I have no issues with keeping it connected.

Capable but not great
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Adds some depth to sound, if your sound source is high quality. Adds bass to music. But the subwoofer will not enhance a poor sound source. For example, commercials on cable programming sound even more annoying and boomy with the subwoofer on. Fortunately, you can adjust volume level on sub. Also note that subwoofer does not add clarity to dialogue. So best used for movie sound effects and music.

Posted .Hi Appverse, Thank you for the feedback on your experience with your SA-SW3. We're glad to hear you like the deep bass response of your Sony wireless subwoofer. Yes, this subwoofer does not improve the audio, dialogue, especially if input sources contain very little bass sound
components (i.e., a TV broadcast). You can check the audio settings of your soundbar to improve the overall listening experience. Hope this helps!
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

Highly recommended
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This subwoofer packs a punch for its small size. I recommend this over the bigger 300 watts Sony subwoofer. I own both and this is far superior. This sub is perfect for movies and music. It’s worth every dollar.

You need this subwoofer to complete your soundbar
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bombastic bass and super clear too. Low thunder rolling, deep soft music stingers, or fast explosions. Even super tricky dubstep bass is no problem for this subwoofer. Easy wireless setup. Its easily controlled via the Sony sync setup on screen. You need this subwoofer to complete your soundbar system.

Fair Subwoofer for the Money
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Better than average and an improvement over the sound coming from my Sony Bravia A95L. Brings the voices out and adds a little depth to the sound with my Sony soundbar. Has seamless integration with its wireless connection. Not overpowering, but somewhat subtle base. Great for everyday cable program watching.

Posted .Hi MikeP,
We are thrilled that the SA-SW3 is providing that extra depth and clarity you were looking for! It is great to hear that the 200W of power and the Σ (Sigma) Magnetic Circuit are effectively bringing out clearer voices and adding a more cinematic feel to your everyday cable watching. If you ever want to adjust the bass impact beyond its "subtle" default, you can easily use the SW (Subwoofer) volume button on your soundbar’s remote to fine-tune the output to your preference. We’re glad the wireless integration with your A95L setup has been seamless. Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards, Eliab

Perfect THUMP
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Added the perfect amount of thump for my one-bedroom apartment. If I put it on 10 it’s too much and my neighbors complain ;) Sync’d easily to my Sony HT5000 sound bar and the remote for the sound bar works for the sub. Overall very happy with my purchase.

Great Subwoofer
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had this sub along with the ht-a5000 and rs3s. It's a fantastic setup. The sound is crisp and clear. If I'm listening to music and really want to try and get up the sound is perfect. I've moved everything to a few different rooms now and the wireless set up only takes a couple minutes.
