    This is our second samsung sound bar. The first one lost its connection with the subwoofer so I'm a little nervous that'll happen again.. but the sound quality is fine.. I would say it's MUCH better than the speakers built into our TV though!

    This adds better sound quality while watching movies. It was very simple to hook and get running. Easy to use, just push one button. We will be adding more speaker in the bear future for even greater theater quality sound.

    This is a good sound bar for the price. Easy setup for the tv and wireless bass speaker. Bass could be a little better quality but decent sound on television programs and so so on music. Primarily best for just television programs.

    I have never had a sound bar. This Samsung Sound bar has great sound. Very easy to setup. You can listen to your phone or pad via Bluetooth on the sound bar!!!! Fantastic!

    I found this soundbar to be better than my built in speakers, but not amazingly so. Setup is very easy, I was up and running within 10 minutes. I ended up returning this unit as my TV is from 2007, and due to a bug, couldn't output anything more than stereo. (A bug in the TV, not the soundbar)

    A necessity with any new tv purchase as the sound from a tv is not great. Easy pairing with JS8500 tv, crystal clear sound. Could use a little more bass from the subwoofer, but a quality cinematic sound system

    This is a quality item, but I'm not quite sure how to allow it work when I switch to Netflix. This may require further research unnecessarily. Otherwise, it sounds great and has a user-friendly remote. No quality issues present.

    This replace my old surround sound system. It's has a great subwoofer. Even though it's a minimal system, it has a maximum sound quality.

    I would recommend always checking that it works with your tv before purchasing. Its great quality sound. Its loud enough without even being halfway to the max volume. The sub compliments the sound bar. Whether its a movie or playing music on pandora through it, the quality cant be beat.

    Pretty impressed with the sound out of this affordable soundbar set-up from Samsung. Not the strongest bass, but for ~$300 it is quite nice. Also have the HW-F750 and this next gen system although smaller provides similar output outside of the subwoofer itself.

    For the price, you cannot beat this sound. The sound bar is able to be controlled by the tv remote so a universal remote is almost unnecessary besides for the cable box. Great sound, great price, and frees up room to get rid of the surround sound system.

    Decent sound for the price. After reading all the great reviews I was expecting a bit more. I really like the Bluetooth feature and the stylish look. Overall not a bad deal I got it on sale. It is very easy to hook up.

    Not too pricey, but built well enough to compete with the best. Sounds just as good as my old Bose set. Will continue to stick with Samsung audio products

    Needs More Bass

    This soundbar has amazing sound quality, but I wish it had a little more bass. However, this is in a relatively small room, so the sound is perfect for my needs. I would purchase a different one for larger rooms though. Mine is mounted below my TV to save on space.

    Nice looking sound bar. Not too big. Audio periodically cuts out for 1 second - not sure why. Might not even be related to the sound bar. Using it with a Samsung - 65" Class - 2160p - Smart - 4K Ultra HD TV.

    Hid the tiny wireless sub inside a side table made it invisible, people ask where the noise comes from. I have more compliments since the soundbar is slim but crisp dialogue. It's simulated surround with so so rear effects. Love the price since it was on sale.

    the sound bar works great in our house. It feels like your sitting in a movie theater when you watch movies or like you at your favorite game. Would definitely recommend to others.
