Samsung - SWA-9500S/ZA 2.0.2 Channel Wireless Rear Speaker Kit, Dolby Atmos/DTS:X - Black

These Samsung SWA-9500S speakers are the secret sauce to leveling up your audio game! Pair them with the Samsung HW-S800B (HW-S80C/B) 3.2.1ch Soundbar, and they transform it into a full-on surround sound beast. Dolby Atmos kicks in hard—voices zip overhead, and explosions sneak up from behind like a ninja. Setup’s wireless and painless (just plug in power), while the 2.0.2 channels bounce sound off your ceiling for that wow-factor height. They’re not solo performers, and I’d love a bit more volume oomph, but for $300, they turn movie nights into a theater vibe. Wall-mount or stand ‘em—your ears will be living their best life!

Adding these to Q700A also pickuped from BB. Gotta have ATMOS these days in home theater! The setup is a breeze and make sure you place the right L/R speaker accordingly (Labeled at the back of it). I didn't noticed that and was wonder how the system know which one I put and thought there is actually a positioning sensor to detect it, hey, it's a wireless ATMOS speaker! End up I was just pure luck to place the right L/R at place. As for the ATMOS up firing channel, unfortunately I'm not able to experience too much since I have a high ceiling and already crank rear up volume to highest +6. Anyway I still get the rear surround effect to stunt me sometimes (Black Hawk Down). One of the thing I want to highlight and struggled as most people do on this Samsung rear ATMOS speakers are: the mounting screw for the stand! Product spec sheet didn't mention any, BB and even Samsung didn't have clue what exactly the thread these speakers has, it's a joke! Saw some people just quote what BB (eventually feed by Samsung) that the thread is 6.3mm width, 1.3mm pitch, 18mm length, people tried M4/5/6 and some just simply 3D print one, and the thread is just simply a standard camera mount screws with 1/4-20, I simply use a 1/4 screw from my scrap box and finally done!

I bought these speakers to pair with my Samsung Q700A Soundbar. I liked how the soundbar sounded, but definitely felt I wasn't getting the "full" surround sound experience. After buying these, I will never go back to just a soundbar and subwoofer. There are definitely some challenges to note with these. I picked the soundbar based off the recommendation that came with my TV. On that same recommendation sheet, it listed these speakers. I knew everything would sync up and work correctly, but if you have the wrong TV model, they may not work correctly. Also buying either these or the soundbar used may cause you to run into issues with controlling them. So far, the only way to control them is through a separate app (which I have not yet installed) or the remote that came with the soundbar. Many people have said they are too low, but once I turned them up all the way with the soundbar remote, I haven't had any issues. You'll want to make sure the show/movie/etc. you are watching has Dolby audio to really get the full effect. I would also recommend you get a study stand if you don't plan to mount these. While they are not the biggest speakers in the world, they do feel solid. The first pair of stands I bought were not very stable and I worried these would come down any second now. Also make sure you place the right and left speaker correctly. First time I set these up, I had them backwards and thought my sound wasn't as good. Overall, if you already have a compatible TV and soundbar, these are a no-brainer. Especially if you can find an Open Box version with everything included. You will feel like you have your own movie theater with these!

Samsung’s wireless surround speakers are a worthwhile addition to compatible Samsung soundbars, especially if you watch a lot of movies or content that can take advantage of the up-firing speakers. During regular tv watching (news, sitcoms, children’s shows) they won’t make much difference. I have noticed a little extra crowd noise while watching sports and having the rear speakers turned all the way up in the SmartThings app. Movies are where you will notice the most improvement. Watching Dune was much more immersive with these speakers added. It sounds great and was easy to pair with the Samsung Q800B soundbar. I also appreciated only having to worry with the power cords for each individual speaker. No messing with speaker cables running all over the room to connect the pair to a subwoofer or hub of some kind. I got an open box - satisfactory unit and aside from one small mark on the side of one of the speakers they seemed to be in like-new condition. Very happy with this rear speaker kit for what I paid.

Rear speakers added to home theater. Was an upgrade from original purchase as first wouldn't link with high end Samsung soundbar. These are perfect. GREAT sound and wireless so wifes happy too about her living room. Connecting super easy in a couple minutes just following directions. Couldn't be happier with the end result.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I couldn't have been happier with this purchase. They sound ridiculously great . Definitely no gimmick here, when these are paired with the atmos soundbar sound really does fill the entire room with clean, crisp, and bass greatness. Very happy with these.
