Big improvement over the TV speakers
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I connected this soundbar to a 50 inch Samsung TV via an HDMI cable. For me, no setup was required and the new remote for the soundbar controls both the soundbar and the TV. My wife hates having two remotes and that was a big factor in choosing this soundbar rather than another brand. I read other reviews before buying this unit and it seems that some people are expecting this to be the equivalent of a home theater system. It is not. It is a simple soundbar which greatly enhances the tiny little speakers on the TV. I am pleased with this purchase.

Simple to use
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We got this to go with our Dansung 65” 700 series. Was easy to set up and makes a huge difference in sound quality vs tv only. Immediately synced with the Tv remote. I have not yet played with the other Bluetooth options.

Samsung soundbar Review
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound bar is good, better than speakers in the TV. However, it lacks bass. Without a separate subwoofer, which is what I’m used to, it doesn’t hit like it wants too. I’m in an apartment in my own room so it does the job well enough that I won’t return it.

Great sound bar!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this on a Black Friday deal for our new Samsung TV. This is a more basic sound bar compared to everything else out there, but wow it is still a huge upgrade from our old one! It is leagues better than the TV speakers alone and the sound is immersive. Easy to use and it practically set itself up!

Our new Samsung Soundbar is Great!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The soundbar is great. With our old system, my husband had to turn the volume up to 25+ to hear it, and now he has it set on 13. My hearing may be safe. The soundbar sits under our new Samsung TV and is not even noticeable. We love it.

No bass
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Let's start with the positives. It comes with a high capacity HDMI cord and it was simple to set up. The positives kind of end there. I expected a bit more from a $200+ soundbar. Maybe i shouldn't have. It can get slightly louder than the tv in my small room, but there is absolutely no bass. The sound quality is tinny and just lacks any sort of punch. This might be the right solution for someone that cannot have bass in their space. For those that are looking for a noticable upgrade from tv speakers, I would look elsewhere. I will be returning this for something that is... more.

Very Nice
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I replaced a receiver and 5 speakers with this Samsung soundbar. I am very happy I did this. The soundbar was very easy to set up. Once it connects to the tv it is ready to go. I like the sound quality. The volume adjusts easily and the people speaking on tv matches the words coming from the sound bar perfectly. I am happy with my purchase and recommend it to others.

Soundbar upgrade
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We Purchased this Samsung soundbar as an open box purchase. Super easy purchase, but the delivery was not ideal. The soundbar came from a distant location so the delivery via FedEx took serveral days. The setup was super easy. The quality of the soundbar was great it looked brand new. The only thing not great was there was no batteries for the remote ?

Great Sound Bar
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent product and great sound for the price point. The volume takes time to adjust and it can get too loud or low if you don't wait for the volume to adjust after hitting control button.
