Sony Sw5 Subwoofer

I was looking to add a subwoofer to my system and I must say I am very impressed! So glad I went with this subwoofer... Sony never disappoints me!

Went with the SW3 for what is a small room as opposed to the SW5. No surprise it has a strong robust sound that goes well with the 2024 HT-A9000 Bar 9, (or any other compatible Sony soundbar.

I bought this SA-SW5 300 W three months ago. It is the right sub woofer for my Sony HT-A9 home theater system. It makes my room feel big. I now truly get the theater sound that the system was intended to give out. It is truly a big bang for sound.

If you have latest sony home theater or TV you must have this subwoofer for full listening experience.

I got this to replace another Sony subwoofer that wore out and had severe distortion. That was only 8" and 50 watts. This new one sounds very good and is only slightly bigger than my old one. All the setting controls are in back. They include level and cutoff frequency dials, phase switch, power save switch and power button. There are terminals for speakers but I connected my receiver directly using the line-in jack. Everyone with a home theater system should have a subwoofer. It adds a lot of depth to the overall sound.

This subwoofer is the final piece to my surround sound system. I have many pieces of Sony equipment and didn't hesitate to buy one more.

Recently bought two of these SSCS5 speakers to match on separately purchased stands with an SACS9 subwoofer I have enjoyed for three years and an STR-ZA3000ES (July, 2018). The STR-ZA3000ES has been replaced in the Sony ES lineup by the newer 3100ES, which includes Dolby Atmos, DTS-X, Ihiji, Phantom Surround Back, and other upgrade features. Cutting to the chase, the SSCS5 speakers are simply superb to my ears, and seem to work perfectly in the match with the Sony ES audio video receiver and my great old workhorse, my Sony Core Series subwoofer. I did endless research and auditions of many products and brands. I have read most of the reviews about the Core Series speakers and countless other speakers, many of them superb and possibly on my future shopping lists. The accolades for the SSCS5 are not hype, at all, in my humble opinion. Anyone interested in getting amazing stop-you-in-your-tracks sound out of reasonably affordable audio gear would be very wise to put these extremely capable and affordable bookshelf speakers on his or her short list to consider. One caveat I offer is that although the SSCS5 has fine, present, defined, clear, and punchy bass, adding a fine subwoofer such as the SACS9 can definitely help you feel better and get your bass on if you happen to be one of those "needs more cowbell" types. For reference, I just played Jethro Tull's remastered Thick As A Brick and also some of the best and most bass-demanding Led Zeppelin remastered tracks on CD's - up very loud (100 db but not quite to pain threshold) with and without the Sony sub engaged. It all sounded satisfying with and without the subwoofer on, and I would have been perfectly happy to have kept listening without the sub; but I guess with a very nice (or naughty) subwoofer like that SACS9 just lying around with nothing else to do, I just wanted "a little more cowbell." I hope this helps. Cheers!

I bought the Sony HT-A5000 soundbar that included this subwoofer In a purchase pkg. the system provides deep rich bass that doesn’t rattle and has very clear sound. It connects to the sound bar seemlessly after it’s connected to a power outlet. The beauty of it all is that there are no speaker wires.

Needed to replace an older Sony subwoofer of 19 years Sony subwoofers is a great value for what I need. May even buy a twin to this one. My receiver supports two subs.

I have a Sony A80L 65” set with an A5000 soundbar, the RS5 rear speakers and now with the added SW3 soundbar I have full , movie theater sound. My system was great before the subwoofer, but now it’s amazing. Adding the subwoofer allows, the remote to have more control over the base and the subwoofer power. I just love how everything pairs and sinks together. The base is clear and perfect for my apartment living room.! Thanks again Sony, another amazing product!
