Q: Tv

A: While this product is great for use with newer samsung TVs featuring the direct connect, any TV with an Audio out port should work with this soundbar, with the preferred connection being Optical audio/SPDIF. Hope this helped.

Q: Why not 5.1?

A: It doesn't have a center speaker and to get a surround effect the front speakers are on either side of the center bar. So, you get a surround effect but missing the center speaker doesnt give a 5.1 effect. Vizio 5.1 has a better surround effect.

Q: Are the two rear speaker wireless?

A: They attach to a wireless hub. So they are wireless in the sense that they don't attach to the soundbar but they aren't truly wireless like the sub is.

Q: Can I add additional wireless speakers to this system?

A: No, you cannot add additional wireless speakers to this.

Q: how to connect to samsung t.v

A: Utilize the optical out from the TV to the sound bar

Q: Soundbar connections to both PC and SmartTV?

A: afcw1969, If you connect the TV with optical audio, and the PC with 3.5mm, it should work just fine. But you will have to switch the soundbar inputs, depending on which input you'll be listening to. Thanks for your interest in Samsung products. --Mr. S

Q: what is the wireless range on the speakers? Can you take them to another room for Pandora?>

A: undefined

Q: Could I connect my Bluetooth headset to this system?

A: Yes, this unit can pair with Bluetooth headphones.

Great sound, Nice Bass
Purchased this soundbar along with a 55" Samsung 7200 UHD TV. The Direct Connect is fantastic, allowing the soundbar to sync wirelessly with the TV, however a single optical audio cable can also do the trick. The soundbar turns on and off with the TV, which is convenient. My wife was confused as to why we needed a soundbar until I pointed out the ability to easily connect to the system via bluetooth, so she can stream music from her phone. She is no longer questioning my tech purchases. The sound is great, and the wireless subwoofer is fantastic. The satellite speakers are not wireless, but connect to the subwoofer. I placed my subwoofer underneath a coffee table next to our couch so it was out of the way. The surround speakers easily connect to this, with the wires neatly tucked and ran under/behind the couch. There aren't a bunch of distracting flashing lights, and the lcd display on the soundbar is very subtle, simply showing current input selection, switching to volume display upon increasing/decreasing. This product definitely shines when connected to a newer Samsung display that supports the direct connect, however I see no reason why it wouldn't be deserving up equal performance on any other brand. If you're looking for a subtle way to greatly enhance your TV's sound capabilities, i definitely recommend checking out this model.

Good sound system for Samsung TV
Sond quality is relatively good, although it does not seem quite as "robust" as it sounded in the store. Bought this sound system because already had a Samsung TV and it was promoted as easy to set up (especially with a Samsung TV). Was relatively easy to do so, although the directions were a little obtuse. Would recommend probably only if friend had a Samsung TV.

My Living Room sounds ten times better now
I was a bit skeptical with this Soundbar. but I figured I take a chance with it and bought it. So far I love it. Wireless and the rear speakers get connect to a wireless module which I have hidden behind the couch. The sound is absolutely incredible.
