Set up is easy with the ARC system on the Samsung TV! It is great only having to use one remote. Sound quality is very good. My only small complaint is that you can only turn the subwoofer down and not off. On low you can still hear some bass, so if you don't want that you have to disconnect power.

Delivers great sound for a sound bar. Not a substitute for a full home theater, but great in a pinch.

Couldn't be happier. I was lucky enough to find this unit in the open box section. Knowing what I know now, I wouldn't blink an eye to paying full price.
Love it!

The sound is so much better/fuller when watching normally on the dish network. However, one time when using with the Samsung DVD player I had the sound maxed out and it was not loud enough for me two make out a couple of words. Other than this one problem I have not been otherwise disappointed.

Installation was very simple. Actuation was also easy. Hook- up the tv with digital audio and set up Bluetooth and everything works as required. Outstanding device.

The quality of the product is good but I was kinda disappointed in the volume of the sound and not being able to run both tv and soundbar to get kinda surround sound. The volume sounded higher and better in the store then when I set it up at home. The price should be way lower then what I paid.

The sound is great with a bunch of settings, fast and easy setup. The sound bar gives great sound without overpowering dialogue. The subwoofer compliments the bar without overpowering all the sound

Nice little sound bar, works well and has a nice sound quality. It is very user friendly and set up was easy. Of course it's not wireless so wires will show a little if you have a wall mounted tv but it's nothing terrible. For the price I wouldn't think twice about repurchasing.

A must for theater sound and feel. Has great sound and very easy to set up and pair with other Samsung products. Only downfall is it could be a little louder.

Easy setup with Samsung tv and all wireless.
The sound is much better than what the tv can do but lacking the thunder sound Or quality that you get with the typical speaker with receiver. You will not get the typical surround sound.
This system will improve your tv speaker but Will not give you the surround sound that comes with movies.

This is my 4th sound bar I purchased in the last 6 months. I took all of the other ones back because they sounded great in the store but was not able to duplicate the sound at home. Of course, its a little unfair to compare the store "ideal conditions" vs. at home conditions which are less than perfect. This unit is by far the BEST...better than the ones that cost 2-4 times more!

Clean look, sounds great on the mid's and highs. The sub is a little weak but then again that is personal preference. I prefer deep bass but this actually sounds decent for a small sub. Not a large footprint and you can tell a large difference with the sub off. Good price as well.

Not a Bad Sound Bar for the Money

The installation was easy, but check to see if you will need an extra HDMI cable if you don't have one already. The optic cable was worthless. It was the source of my crackling noise and did not fit well into the components, hence, the need for an HDMI cable. The bass was adequate, but not impressive. Overall, not bad for the money if you buy it on sale. The optional rear speakers that you can buy as a discounted bundle works, but you can barely hear it. The volume needs to be higher without turning up your sound bar. If you're "cash strapped", but want an enhance sound system get the sound bar on sale and not the rear speakers.
