A:AnswerHi Tommy, You may be able to adjust the HW-B650 Soundbar volume using the TV’s remote control used for the TV by adjusting the settings within the soundbar. This function can be used with IR remote controls only. Bluetooth remote controls (remote controls that require pairing) are not supported. Set the TV speaker to External Speaker to use this function.
1) Turn Off the Soundbar.
2) Push up and hold the WOOFER button for 5 seconds. Each time you push the WOOFER button up and hold it for 5 seconds, the mode switches in the following order: “Samsung-TV Remote” (Default mode), “Off-TV Remote”, “All-TV Remote”. The LED indicator status changes each time the mode is changed.
Should you need further assistance, please contact Samsung Support at 1-800-SAMSUNG (ask for Soundbars).

A:AnswerHi Randy, The front Left and Right speakers: These deliver clear and powerful sound for dialogue and most of the action in movies and TV shows.
The Center Speaker: This speaker focuses on dialogue, ensuring that voices are clear and easy to understand.
Subwoofer: The wireless subwoofer enhances the bass, adding depth and richness to the audio, especially for explosions and music.
Together, these speakers provide an immersive audio experience for your home theater setup.

A:AnswerJim, The HW-B650 will work great with your new 85QN85D TV, however, I recommend either the HW-Q850D or the HW-Q930D which feature Q-Symphony. With Q-Symphony you will get multi-directional sound from both the Soundbar and the TV. The Hw-B650 does not have this feature. ~ Samsung Solutions
A:AnswerHi there!
If available, we recommend using the HDMI connection to your TV.
Connecting your soundbar to a TV through HDMI will provide the best audio and user experience, often eliminating any connection or delay issues you may be experiencing. There are 2 ways to connect your soundbar with HDMI: you can connect a device to your soundbar (like a Blu-ray player) and then connect the soundbar to the TV, or you can use HDMI ARC. The first method will give you the best possible sound from external devices you regularly use. ARC is the way to go if you want great sound from streaming apps on your TV and a soundbar.
