    This sound package nicely compliments the 75 inch Samsung TV we purchased at the same time. Sound is good and setup was fast and easy.

    I happened to catch this soundbar on sale. Voices are very clear. The minor music details in film and TV soundtracks are very audible and clear. The bass module is wireless and connected automatically with no problem. The bass is adequate. Will not shake the room, but fills out soundtracks and movies very well for a 6 inch. The bar can get very loud, depending on your source you are using. It has multiple sound modes, but found myself using DTS. The simulated surround leaves a bit to be desired. But proper surround speakers are available. Overall very happy with it. Would buy again.

    Excellent sound all around. I got this with the added wireless rear package for the full effect and it's nice and clean with thundering bass and clear highs.

    Having a sound bar changes everything! The sound quality is amazing. The 3.1 Channels makes the difference of being able to really hear all of the voices

    Samsung 3.1 Channel Soundbar

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The sound bar has good audio quality but does require a volume setting of 45 which seems to be a fairly large percentage of the total available. Previously with our TV speakers DISH programing required a setting of 18 and ROKU programing required a setting of 30, now regardless of source the best setting is 45. Our goal in purchasing the sound bar was to improve hearing dialog but there are still a large number of occasions where the background sound levels make the dialog difficult to hear.

    Good Sound, Expecting a Little More Bass

    Clear dialogue and clear highs, and reasonably good mids. But when I tested the sound bar with a few action scenes from some of my favorite movies, the sound stage sounded kind of weak. I even tried turning up the subwoofer to its max setting, and it still didn’t sound as full and booming as my 10 year old set up that I’m replacing. At the price point this comes in at I was expecting a lot more. Ended up taking it back. If it’s was on sale for cheaper, maybe low $200’s, I think it would be a better value

    On July 14, 2020 I purchased the Samsung HW-T650/ZA Sound Bar with Sub Woofer to go with my Samsung 82" Q7D 4k UHD QLED LCD TV for $324.12. As we all know the tv sound is not great, so i tried the Sonos Playbar which only operates from your cell phone, no remote, and for the sale price of $549, forget about it. So lets match the tv to this T650 sound bar/sun woofer with a remote. The sub woofer only adjusts so high or low. It has no bass sound coming off the floor. You can only hear the bass change in the sound bar. It doesn't knock your socks off. Also, when you're in the surround sound mode the back ground music drowns out the language and you miss a lot of the people speaking. I set the woofer to 0 which i couldn't hear the difference. Then you need to change the mode on the sound bar to standard. The Sonos had really good sound but i didn't want to spend over $800 for their woofer package, with no remote. I will say the surround sound coming off the 6 speakers in this sound bar is very good. Changing modes for every application, movies, tv, music may be my only option, since i threw all the packing away for this product. Not sure if there is anything better out there. I think i'm stuck.

    Grabbed this soundbar during a Best Buy Labor Day sale and I am super happy with my purchase. I'm using mine in my bedroom and it's absolutely perfect for the job. Running audio from the ARC channel on my TV and the direct HDMI feed from my Sony UBP-X800M2 and both sound great. I liked the soundbar so much that I got a second one for my parents during the sale as well. 100% great purchase for folks looking for a little more with their setup without having to invest too much. Being able to add on more speakers to the system itself is a great addition as well.
