I just upgraded my surround system from a 2016 Denon receiver 7.1 chan. I felt that it was getting a bit old and took up a lot of space etc. And while the sound was ok, my speakers weren't the best.
I got the Sony HT-A8000 Atmos soundbar as well as the Sony SA-RS5 rear speakers. I wanted everything to be from Sony rather than mix and match. I am very happy with the ease of setup. Basically you do it all via the Bravia app and it walks you thru the steps even checking to make sure you have everything setup correctly. This speaker was setup in 5 seconds. Of course after unpacking the heavy box and plugging it in.
The sound, the power, the clarity.....impressive. I hear sounds on games, tv shows and movies that i've seen and played many times that i've never heard before after installing this speaker. The bass is so deep and crisp it really feels like you are in a movie theater. Especially that i have it paired with the soundbar and rear speakers.
I know it's pricy but just go for it, you'll be very happy you did. It's made very well and it will last. I've had other systems over the years including soundbars and separate subwoofers but this one I can actually say is top of the line. Just fantastic.
On a side note, the app to configure everything also lets you set volume and a few other things for the speakers so once the initial automated setup is complete, you can still change things to your preferences. So if you don't want heavy bass you can lower the volume.

Ok Subwoofer.
Sony SA SW5 subwoofer is a decent product. Does the job. The bass isn't great, it's ok. The bass isn't very clear becuase the sound bar drowns most of the bass. For the most part you won't hear the bass unless you are watching movies or listeningmusic with heavy bass.Based on the sound quality, this subwoofer is not worth 600 or even 500. I got it on sale for 448 and I still think I paid too much. Unfortunately I didn't have a choice because you cannot use a different brand of subs with the HT-A7000 sound bar. This is why I am keeping this sub.Keep in mind, this subwoofer is big and a little on the heavy side.
