Best praise vs top criticism for Sony HT-A3000
“The A3000 with the subwoofer and rears that you already have is a better setup compared to the A7000 alone, unless you would get the A7000 and upgrade with sub and rears down the line”
“Sony HT-A3000 is just a 3.1 Soundbar, don't waste your money on that.”
