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

Great Sub
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sub. I replaced my Boes 700 sub with the Sony and have no regrets. Paired up easily with the Sony A7000 soundbar. Great deep rich bass that fills the entire room. Finally have the home theater sound I was looking for.

The perfect companion for the HTA7000
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you have the HTA7000 this is what you need. This sub pairs seamlessly with the HTA7000 literally you just need to plug it in and the soundbar will pair with it and calibrate it. It has a nice premium look to it as well.

Must Have

Sony EQ ruins this sub
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had this paired to an a5000 and was severally underwhelmed with the overall quality. The bass was amazing when I watched the Heat gun fight, great with John Wick but when listening to music or a show it was lackluster. I messed with the settings, maxed the sub boost with the remote and through manually setting up the audio but it never hit the quality nor sound i’d expect doe this. If my HW-F850 ever dies, i’ll go buy the Sonos setup playbar with sub, for the same price you get significantly more performance and boom for your bucks.

Theater like bass from sub
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Loved my HTA9s but with this sub it brings theater like bass to my small room.

Enhances the immersive experience
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Combo’d this with HT 7000 soundbar, SA-RS5 wireless rear speakers. While the HT7000 bangs by itself, this really adds more depth, and enhances the overall experience- especially with movies like Dune!
