Overall good.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall Good Soundbar with decent sound and it can get very loud and with Dolby Atmos movies comes to life. Soundbar projects lots side sounds depending on settings, the sound can be heard 40 feet sideways as you were sitting in the sofa in front of the TV, just to be aware if you have an open concept home. One Issue if you are playing video games and when going back to TV the soundbar auto mutes and the TV and soundbar needs to be switched off/on to get back the sound.

Awesome sound!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound quality is fantastic, and gives a great surround feel, even though it is just a single bar of speakers. Works great in pairing with Samsung TV, and also makes it a great way to listen to streaming music through the Bluetooth.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat sound at to pair with Samsung TV
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy pairing with Samsung TV and great sound for the price. It’s no 5.1 set, but the sound is very good for the cost - bass respond is fine in a medium-sized room and dialog is clear watching a number of different shows/formats.
I would recommend this to a friendQuite dissapointing, to me
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this to replace a 7 year old Samsung HW-F550 soundbar. The F550 was a much less expensive soundbar than this one, did not have Atmos, and did not have a center channel speaker. The subwoofer on it also lost coherence (broke up, "rattled") in loud low-frequency scenes in movies, and I wanted to get away from that. I figured that since Samsung bought Harmon Kardon a couple of years ago, and for the price, this would be quite good. It's disappointing. The subwoofer does not go down to nearly as low a frequency as the cheaper old F550, and it rattles far worse! It breaks up with low frequency background music on normal cable TV shows. Blu-ray movies with a good sound track really suffer with this speaker. It's an absolutely terrible subwoofer. The "surround sound" is very underwhelming. Unfortunately (for me) my wife (who has hearing problems in the mid - high range) has trouble hearing dialog on the F550. She says that she can understand dialog a lot better with this soundbar. That is not really a surprise, because of the center channel speaker that the F550 did not have. I wanted to return this soundbar, but my wife really doesn't want me to because she is taken by the ease of understanding dialog, the the subwoofer does not matter to her. And I am not all that crazy about boxing it all up again and driving up to Best Buy with it. I suspect that I am stuck with it.

Posted .Chip,
Thank you for sharing your review of the Samsung HW-Q70T Soundbar. I am sorry to see that you are not completely happy with the sound performance. This soundbar features a powerful wireless subwoofer, as well Acoustic Beam which keeps your sound in sync with the action.
You can try optimizing audio performance for your specific content by pressing the SOUND MODE button on your remote, and then selecting the desired sound effect by choosing STANDARD, SURROUND SOUND, GAME PRO, or ADAPTIVE SOUND
You can further adjust TREBLE and BASS via the SOUND CONTROL button (looks like a gear symbol).
Refer to pages 22-24 of the User Manual for detailed instructions: https://downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/UM/202005/20200522131945126/AH81-11607A-00_FM_HW-Q70T_ZA_ENG_200511.pdf
There are two adjustments that can be made to maximize bass from the soundbar and subwoofer:
1) Using the WOOFER button on the remote, you can adjust the volume of the subwoofer between -6 to +6 by toggling the button up or down. To set the subwoofer volume level to 0, press the button in.
2) Adjust the bass control by pressing the SOUND CONTROL button (gear icon) on the remote control, then select BASS to increase the level. You can adjust the volume between -6 to +6 by using the Up/Down buttons.
For precise audio adjustments, you can use the 7-band frequency equalizer to optimize the sound for your room acoustics.

Impressive sound
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Crisp sound, great bass, and can get loud without distorting the sound. Works great with my Samsung - 55" Class Q80A Series QLED 4K UHD Smart Tizen TV combined sound is fantastic.
I would recommend this to a friendSolid performer & a bargain.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good clear sound especially for dialogue. My component sound system provides deeper notes but for the price and convenience I think this sound bar is remarkable.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This sound bar does exactly what I wanted it for. Clearer dialogue on my Samsung 55" tv. Easy to set up and with the additional bass speaker, which is wireless, provides excellent sound. I am very pleased with this product.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this item! It has power and presence - and FILLS the room with sound.

Great sound
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound but has a tendency to switch back to tv speaker at random times. When researching, it appears this may be a common issue with this sound bar.
I would recommend this to a friendGood complement for my Samsung Q80T TV
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this at the same time as a Q80T TV as I was looking for something with Atmos support. This works well for a bedroom but you really want to get the rear speakers if you were using this in a living/family room.

Samsung Q70T Soundbar
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This Samsung soundbar was difficult to set up, and took over an hour to get fully operational. The included bluetooth Subwoofer would not connect, even while attempting to do so for about 2 hours. There was a significant spoken voice delay. I returned the soundbar.
