A:AnswerMounting Dream Height Adjustable Speaker Stands Pair with Wire Management, model HM5402-1 - these worked very well. The stand's speaker attachment plate is just the right size for these speakers. The overall look is solid. Additional benefit is that the wire management pass-through hole is big enough to get the speaker's power cord through. Highly recommend.
A:AnswerHi Dave! When pressing the Sound Control button on your Soundbar remote (looks like a gear), you will be able to select REAR LEVEL and use the Up/Down buttons to adjust the volume within a -6 to +6 range. If you are still unable to adjust the volume, please contact Samsung Support at 1-800-SAMSUNG (ask for Soundbars), 8AM -12AM EST (Mon-Fri), 9AM – 6PM EST (Sat), text HELP to 62913, LiveChat on Samsung.com, or Email: https://www.samsung.com/us/support/#contact_us_for_support

A:AnswerHi Newbie! You can certainly use the soundbar without the subwoofer connected, however the subwoofer provides the immersive bass to pair with the exceptional clarity and surround performance of the other speakers. ^Tim
A:AnswerHi LetsG0Os! Thank you for inquiring about our brand-new 2021 HW-Q950A Soundbar. SpaceFit Sound is only compatible with 2021 Samsung QLED TVs, but you will still be able to enjoy features like Q-Symphony, Active Voice Amplifier, and Adaptive Sound! The HW-Q950A also features Auto EQ Technology (new to 2021), which uses a microphone mounted in the subwoofer to detect and correct low-frequency response peaks caused by the room dimensions and the subwoofer location. Great news - the SWA-9500S Rear Kit included with the Q950A Soundbar no longer requires a receiver module! The rear speakers will require a power source - that is the only cable you will need to connect to them. ^Gina

A:AnswerThe Q950A has amazing sound quality! I’ve found the side firing speakers arent as robust as the forward firing, and surrounds. You most likely won’t hear a difference
A:AnswerVirtual means virtual surround sound. It’s where the sound bar will take the incoming audio signal and send sound to the rears, side and up firing speakers based on what IT thinks should go there. Surround Sound mode is where the signal coming into the system is already coded for surround and only the sounds intended to go the tears are sent there.
Hope this helps!
A:AnswerHi Cobra! The HW-Q950A will work great for any usage scenarios; music, gaming, or movies. You can customize the sound to your liking by using the built in sound modes, or by connecting to the SmartThings app on a compatible smart phone. ^Tim
A:AnswerIt's very simple and easy to setup it has a smart system setup once you setup the speakers automatically Adjust its normal sound for the size of the room If I love it you will too highly recommended
A:Answerthis sound bar absolutely passes dolby vision. I used my Nvidia Shield to test this. The sound bar will pass Dolby Vision when the source is lowered to 24hz instead of 60hz. If you are having trouble getting dolby vision to pass through, changing that setting worked perfectly. other rule of thumb is to set your TV to "Passthrough" only, dont use "auto". that should let the soundbar be recognized as a full Dolby Atmos (DD+) source more consistently.
A:AnswerI don't know for sure that they run on the 5 GHz Channel most smart devices for your home runs at 2.4 GHz if they're cutting out they may be too far from The Sound Bar itself now you have the option to broadcast through the Wi-Fi or to broadcast through the main sound bar to all your other speakers by selecting wi-fi on your soundbar however I use the HDMI cable and broadcast from the soundbar's built-in wireless connection.
A:AnswerHi Sreenadh!
The dimensions of the rear speakers included with the HW-Q950A are (WxHxD) 4.9" x 8.0" x 5.6" and each speaker weighs approximately 3.7lbs; you will be able to utilize any universal speaker stands that support the dimensions and weight.

A:AnswerHi yankeeman! The HW-Q950A features two HDMI inputs and Bluetooth wireless audio technology. If your turntable can connect to one of these two audio connections it will be compatible with the HW-Q950A.

A:AnswerThere is an audio delay issue. I have the XSX hooked to my samsung qn90b via hdmi and then i have the tv hooked to my samsung soundbar via hdmi as well and theres a noticable audio delay. Ive done every troubleshooting step you can think of with no resolution. Microsoft currently suggests mailing the console back to them for "repairs". Seems like its kind of a crapshoot to be honest. I didnt notice an audio delay with my old q60 samsung tv and same sound bar, only with this new tv.
A:AnswerHi! The HW-Q950A will be compatible with any TV supporting HDMI or HDMI ARC. To get the full, uncompressed Dolby Atmos experience, eARC is required; however, standard HDMI ARC will still support Dolby Atmos giving you an immersive surround sound experience.
