Nice boom from a small driver
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This sub is used with my Sony A7000 soundbar for wireless connectivity. Though the driver is only 7" it does give out some impressive bass, but the only issue I had is that the spot that the sub sounds the best gets a bit of dropout. I haven't figured out what's causing the inteference so I've had to settle with spot #2. It's not bad there, just not as nice as my first choice. Pairing was a breeze and it adds that boom the soundbar really needs to bring the movies to life. While it can blow you away, it's not gonna knock out your breath like a 600w sub can. This sub only pulls 43w, so don't expect the rattle the walls or hit some of the deeper rumbles. I'd have prefered a bigger driver because the room we have this set up in is 700sqft. While it adds the extra bottom, it just doesn't hit like I'd like. I'm pickier than my wife with sound, so she's happy. The sound does match perfectly with the A7000's, so that's a huge plus.

Feel what you’re watching
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The perfect addition to the soundbar and rear speakers to complete the ultimate sound system. The perfect amount of boom. You literally plug it in and it connects up to the soundbar. I love not have speaker wires running all over. The amount of bass is controlled through the remote and up all the way is a whole lot of bass. Also sounds great with music. The build quality is great, feels very solid and looks good too. I am thoroughly impressed as a whole by this Sony home theater sound system. Exited for more movies at home!

Room filling lows!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this sub along with the Sony HTA 7000 sound bar and SA RS 3S rear speakers. This sub fills my den as well as the more powerful, larger sub attached to my traditional sound system. This sub has remained synced with the sound bar unlike the other wifeless sound bar system subs I have tried. This system (sub, sound bar and satellites) is the best EQ'd and crossed over sound bar system I have heard. I love this system. Check my sound bar review for more.

Booming sound
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Big booming audio! I was honestly shocked at how much this thing rocks the room. Even with the enormous sound, it doesn’t overtake the other speakers. It sounds very natural. I’ve paired it with a bar 8 and rs3 rears. Placement maters, make sure you place it in the corner of your room if space allows.

Amazing bass + wire-free and effortless setup
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall The Sony SA-SW5 is an Amazing add-on subwoofer for the Sony HT-A7000. It comes ready to pair out of the box upon powering, but if you miss the pairing window a single click of a button pairs the speakers. Pairing takes less than 10 seconds. If it weren't for Sony’s descriptive image cutouts, I would have been left speculating the next section. It comes equipped with 2 subs sporting what Sony calls Σ Magnetic Circuit and Separated Notch Edge, 2 technologies enrich bass and low frequency sounds. The outer construction seems very sturdy consisting of what would appear to be a wooden structure (based on a knock test) with a polymer overly, an added texture, and a fabric covering over the exposed sub. All of this sits a top a reflective pvc like base sousing the second, downward facing subwoofer. All-in-all this results in a very nice luxurious sub that doesn’t feel cheap.

Connects easily and has a great output
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This sub is made to go with the matching soundbar. Together they work great. I unboxed the sub, plugged it in and turned on my soundbar. It wirelessly connected within a couple of minutes and was working right away. I played some music to try and test the bass and its loud and you can really feel it when you turn up the volume. This really helps balance the sounds from the soundbar and the experience would not be the same without it.
