Great sub
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Loved the Sony SW5 sub for it punchy, tight bass.  My complaint was that matching it with other Sony equipment left me disappointed in the overall surroundsound experience.  If the primary purpose of the set up with music, I would recommend this hands down though.

Very impressive!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Personally I think this review should have been bundled with the sound bar, but here we go. The sub woofer arrived after the TV and sound bar had been delivered and installed. Hearing the sub woofer for the first time made me realize how necessary it was to the system. I highly recommend getting it.

Done right.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Much better sub that the one it replaced. Capable of very low and accurate bass reproduction. I like action movies, this sub paired with the HTA5000 and 7000 really impressed me.

Good not great.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Appreciably rounds out the sound from our 7000 soundbar. Probably not a good choice if u want big base.

Great
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Paired this sub up with the HT-A9 for some really good theater rumble. The sub also gives the system the abilty to adjust bass from 1-12 instead of the three setting of low to high without this sub.

Download the app to pair subwoofer and soundbar
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Paid for Geek Squad service to set the subwoofer up. It took them three times out to my home over a two week timeframe. I also had to return the subwoofer twice because each time I was told my soundbar didn’t go with the subwoofer. Even though it stated on Bestbuys website. It was a third party vendor that let us know an app called Bravia connect need to be downloaded so the soundbar and subwoofer could pair. No one apologized for all the time I spent driving back and forth

Best sub for Sony A7000
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I originally bought SA-SW3S and I was disappointed. With this one not only action movies shine but dialogs and music to. Even classical music sounds much better. Agree it's expensive but really worth it. I did a bundle with A7000 sound bar and saved $100
