Question 1

This price is for a pair or are sold individually?

Accepted Answer

These questions/answers appear under multiple items, so the answers are inconsistent. The bookshelf speakers are paired, but the floorstanding speakers and the center channel speakers are sold individually.

Question 2

What are the size(diameter) of tweeters / midranges / subwoofers ? And do these have passive crossovers inside?

Accepted Answer

Dear Kim,There is a passive crossover in the speaker.  3/4" Super tweeter, 1" Tweeter, and 5 1/4" Woofer.Eric C

Question 3

How is the bass to use without subwoofer?

Accepted Answer

I just spent a couple days measuring these speakers with REW (Room EQ Wizard) with and without the SACS9 subwoofer. In my room, these speakers play below 50hz (although there is a lot of ringing below 200hz). I found the best crossover setting on the back of the subwoofer was at the minimum setting (50hz) and appropriate volume for the room (8-9 o'clock position for my room). Anything higher than that and I'm getting large peaks at the crossover point. Purchase these speakers when they are on sale (I got mine for $88 and the sub for $99) and you will not be disappointed.

Question 4

I recently purchased the SSCS8 Center and  2 SACS9 subs, Which Sony speakers would be recommended for the Front L&R Surround L&R Back L&R?

Accepted Answer

Depending on how big of a room your set up will be in. If it's a small room, you can use the Sony SS-B1000 5-1/4-inch Bookshelf Speakers for the front left and right; the side surround left and right; and the rear surround left and right.For a big room, I would recommend the Sony SS-B3000 Bookshelf Speakers for the Front Left and right and then use the Sony SS-B1000 Bookshelf Speakers for the rest of the surrounds. This is the set up that I have in my room and it's 15'x15'. It sounds amazing...
