QuestionI would like to connect my sat box directly to soundbar, but if this doesn't have hdmi in how would I do this?
Asked 3 years ago by Jimm.
- Answer Hi Jim, You are correct that the HW-S50B does not have an HDMI In port, natively this is not possible with this soundbar. Our Q-Series Soundbars do have 1 HDMI IN port and 1 HDMI OUT port. Consider looking at one of those models if this is something that you are really wanting to do. ~Samsung Solutions

Questioni just installed this soundbar on my new outdoor patio (covered), connected to a new 75" TV (Samsung). with volume up to 100 it is not really that loud. anyway to increase the output?
Asked 2 years ago by Campy.
- Answer Hi there, For the HW-S50B Soundbar there are a few ways you can optimize your overall sound. By pressing the CH LEVEL button on your provided soundbar remote you can adjust the levels of each speaker between -6 to +6. If you pair the compatible SWA-9200S Wireless Rear Speaker Kit you can adjust the volume for these the same way. Press and hold the SOUND CONTROL button for roughly 5 seconds to have access to the 7 band equalizer. Press the LEFT/RIGHT buttons to switch between each band and then the UP/DOWN buttons to adjust the levels between -6 to +6. When you press the SOUND MODE button you can switch between the pre-equalized sound modes. When you press the button it will switch between them in this order, DTS Virtual:X - Standard - Music - Game - Adaptive Sound Increase your overall bass levels between -12 or -6 to +6 using the WOOFER button pushing forwards or backwards on the button. If you PRESS IN this will reset the subwoofer levels to 0. ~Samsung Solutions
