Top Rated Gear: Sony SWF-BR100 Active Wireless Subwoofer, 5.2-5.8GHz Band Wireless Frequency, 4Ohms Impedance, Black

Bought this sub - woofer 5 years ago and gives great dimension to sound, especially bass.
When the TV I bought with it failed and was replaced under guarantee - thank you Sony - it no longer would connect to the replacement TV - KD series. So if thinking of buying make sure it will connect and work with your TV first.

Great when works

Good image and colour.
Brief starting instructions for controller missing.

TV review

I bought this to support my old sony dolby pro logic system. This is a sony tower kit and sounds unbelievable but i wanted to use the tv (kdl49xd8077) features for the sub woofer. The problem is my tower kit plugs into headphone port on the TV and surprisingly swf br100 needs to use the same input. Basically I'm not sacrificing a surround sound system for a sub. Waste of time and money

Disappointing can't use in conjunction existing

Picked up open-box 2015 model of this 100-watt cannon for my Sony KDL "W" Bravia. Weighs a ton but what a monster.. in my apartment dwelling have to crank it down to bare minimum #1 on a scale of 12 and still lethal. Can't figure why Sony doesn't promote/market this model more. Are they even producing new models? You'd never know it! On their website, barely an afterthought. Maybe due for an update? Only works with 2014 W/X-series BRAVIA models but worth it.

Terror of Mechagodzilla

I have a new Sony TV but like all slim TV's the base sound is limited. This product produces a great base sound and installation is a breeze. There is no need for a sound bar with this option.

Excellent TV Base Sound

A fantastic difference to the base and puts the sound in a different dimension. Its great.
Very easy to set up and start.

Great subwoofer

Brilliant absolutely brilliant. I have a Sony 5.1 surround system for the DVD's etc., that require full 5.1 but bought this for programs that need great sound but didn't need such a high tech system, also to boost the low end sound from my Sony t.v. It's incredible, coupled with the t.v. the sound effect is amazing and the bass shakes the room and we have a large room. Cannot fault such a great product.

Great Earthquaking Bass!

Added this item to my new KD55x9305 Sony tv and adds immensely to the overall viewing experience, you may not have it switched on all the time, but for Films or football it's fantastic.

ADDS TO OVERALLVIEWING EXPERIENCE

Bought this for my Sony KDL60W630B. On the plus side it is easy to connect and works seamlessly with certain SONY Televisions. This Subwoofer will add some lower range to the standard television speakers but really that's about it. If you are use to or have heard a home theatre system this will not be anywhere close to that. Don't expect thundering bass for movies etc. I have mine turned all the way up with crossover at 250hz and it is just there barely. So understand its purpose and limitations and you should be happy. Compact size and elegant appearance will look nice next to your TV. It does have to be near the TV. If you try to put it on the other side of the room or behind a chair etc. it will be non-existent.

Good for what it is

Bought this to compliment my Bravia TV. A complete transformation of sound reproduction & well worth the rather pricy unit. It's a Sony so expect perfection.

Unexpected perfection

another great product from Sony, sound quality is very good.

Execellent Features

I bought this sub-woofer speaker to hopefully get a deeper and richer sound than the speakers in my newly purchased Bravia TV currently provide on their own. Overall I'm quite impressed with the sound improvement when watching almost all kinds of programmes, however it really comes into it's own when watching DVD's / Bluray discs, giving a powerful solid bass and real depth of sound. Similar to other reviews, this speaker is not small and I could imagine it could be difficult to find an unobtrusive place to position it in certain living rooms. In addition set up is not quite as easy as described on the box, as the fit of the wireless USB device is not particularly secure in the TV and if slightly out of position it affects the use of the TV remote control. Got it sorted but had to ring Sony support for guidance. Overall it has complemented the stunning picture quality of the TV, however it's a bit pricey and a little on the large size for what it does.

A big speaker that makes a big difference!

I am very happy about this product, it's what I was looking for

Great sound

Got this subwoofer to go with my Sony XBR 65X900B TV. It greatly improved the sound quality and was a simple plug and play installation.

Greatly Improved TV Sound

I bought this to improve the listening pleasure on my Sony Bravia TV and it has done so.

Simple, effective, quite expensive.

The question is, "How much gear?" and the answer is as much as your siginificant other will allow. We use this unit with the 900B UHD TV and it is a worthwhile addition making a sound bar or worse a 7.1 + systme nonessential.

Decent remote base for a low price

As soon as you hook it up to the USB in the back and they link up, you immediately hear and feel the difference in the richness and deapth of the sound. Excellent with action and thriller type movies.

Great Addition to Your 4k TV

I bought it two months ago and I am very happy with this purchase.

Very good machine.

Bought as recommended by Sony to add to KDL32W TV. Makes huge difference to depth & richness of sound by adding bass normally missing from small speakers in todays slim cased TV's.
Very easy to use with no interconnecting wiring need between the Subwoofer & the TV. Also TV handset operates it & switches it on & off automatically with the TV.
Very pleased with our purchase

Big TV Sound Improvement

I love the coverage of my large den and being wireless. Very Google choice!

Very Good Choice!

I bought this to go with my new Bravia TV. The subwoofer gives excellent depth to the sound but is rather on the large side - certainly bigger than the Panasonic sub I had previously. Also the TV sound takes up to 10 secs to start after you switch on the TV from standby, although the picture starts instantly. Maybe all wireless subs are like this and it is not a huge problem, but worth being aware of.

Great Sound But Rather Big

Great addition to 4K Ultra Hi-Definition TV XBR55X900B, but.
sometime, on different channels, we have a irritating low knocks in special on the music passages.

Adjusting the setups will don't do too much good, so we are force to lower the bass and subwoofer pich. If you like a great bass, then use a "clean" source, and don't have a picky neighbors.

Great idea, but ...

tv speakers did not have enough low end response.this sub woofer adds what was missing and gives the tv big sound now

worth the cost

This adds depth to the sound, resonance and bass but was much larger than I anticipated.

Adds bass

The product works well and is easy to install even for me. However we have separate speakers and don't use the built in TV ones. Unfortunately when you enable this on the TV is disables the Sub-Woofer which was not clear when we purchased it.

Lovely product but beware...

Superb addition for new tv, sound is immense, box sits behind sofa wirelessly and rumbles on the big action movies - 5 stars!!!
Took a while to setup, initially it locked out half the remotes controls, and need a few reboots of everything to sync. Now effortless and automatic. Loads of frequency fine tuning available, I've set all to max and love it.

amazing after troublesome setup

If you don't want an array of speakers but want the extra bass ,with ease of use and installation then this is the answer,

Extra punch

Perfect accompaniment to our new Sony 55" UHD TV.
The sound produced is unbelievable.Another great Sony product.

Clean lines ,great sound.

this has enriched my viewing ...had to mess with the settings ......the standard settings were far to much ..he he ....i had to tone it down a tad.....this will depend on what you have in your room.......or carpets on the floor.....or wood floor........once you get it right it will add to a better listening ......
