    My first sound bar I ever bought. I’ve had surround sounds with 5 speakers (5.1) and I’ve enjoyed it, but this sound bar with the Atmos is amazing. Fills my living room up with amazing sound. It is a bit pricey but definitely worth it. Sounds great with PS4 Pro and especially Xbox One X which supports Atmos. No regrets with this purchase. I love it

    This sound is very good. I had the issue with the rear speakers and sub not working if you cut the tv off and back on but the Firmware Update fixed the issue and have not had any issues since.

    Me & my daughter love ❤️ this sound system. We were leaving the store. Considering returning the whole LG system because of poor quality. When the store rep showed us this Samsung surround sound. We were blown away & absolutely loved it. So instead of returning the other system, we upgraded everything to Samsung.

    I have owned multiple soundbars over the past few years. The experience has been hit or miss. However, this time I decided to go with a high end soundbar (pretty much it’s the top of the line) Samsung/Harmon Kardon HW-Q90R. I am extremely happy that I decided to go with this product. All I can say is WOW, What a difference...

      Mike:

      Thank you for purchasing the HW-Q90R Samsung Harman Kardon 7.1.4ch Soundbar with Dolby Atmos.

      I am very sorry for the on/off issue and the sub making a hissing/popping sound. The issue seems to be that the rear speakers and sub have disconnected and are thus making the odd sounds.

      Please know that a firmware update was recently released to resolve this issue. The update must be applied to all THREE components: soundbar, rear speakers, and subwoofer.

      For step-by-step instructions on how to update firmware, please visit:  https://www.samsung.com/us/support/troubleshooting/TSG01202075/

    Great packaging, easy to set up and very versatile. If you have problems with these then you have interference or aren't following directions. Best rated wireless system for atmos on any site. At $1399 your are saving at lest $5k to get a comparable discrete avr system. Go for it and buy these. They don't disappoint!

    I purchased the high end Sonos speaker and returned it for the Samsung. I have definitely not been disappointed. If you want to have a movie like experience, at home, I would suggest this Samsung setup. My wife does not get excited, like I do, about surround sound, thumping bass, etc. But she absolutely loves this setup and constantly says how great it sounds, and that it was worth every penny. If you are looking for a soundbar, look no further. I shopped tons of brands, looked at hundreds of reviews, and watched dozens of YouTube reviews about soundbars, At the time of this posting, I don't believe a better soundbar exists. Try this Samsung, or you'll be disappointed you settled for something less than the best!

    O-M-G!!! (Think Janice from Friends LOL). This soundbar with subwoofer is freaking amazing! It sounds so good that when my sister in law was in the kitchen and the tv was showing glass breaking, she took cover. (She wasn't paying attention to the TV). We all had a good laugh! I hope that explains how good this is!

    I read multiple threads that indicated people had issues with setting this system up and that the rear speakers and subwoofer would disconnect. Not the case. This system plays like a dream. I will never go back to a wired component system again.

    This unit fills the family room with sound, approximately 140sqft. This system was and upgrade from my HW-MS750, with rear speakers added. The Q90R is slightly larger bar, which has 8" subwoofer, and 2 rear Atmos speakers. I have it connected to Sony 75" 4k TV. With hi speed HMDI cables. No issues so far. The speakers connected with the sound bar without any issues. I used the SmartThing App to connect and register the devices and update the firmware. I also have my BRP connected to hmdi 1. I do have to remember to switch input on the bar to get sound while playing DVD. I mostly run the system on surround. It is worth buying, if you have a large TV. I feel this soundbar was a big step up. My HW-MS750 is a very good sound bar, there was nothing wrong with it, no problems, I wanted the Atmos experience also. Now I have both. The Q90R is more powerful than the MS750 and the Q90 subwoofer rocks. The price is sharp but comparable to others in the same range. I'm happy with Both Samsung soundbars.

    First time I’ve bought a sound bar. I’ve always had separate components to drive my TV sound. It’s okay but I’m not sure I would do it again. But my room is rather open and not acoustically conducive. But overall sounds great

    Been using the system for over a month and I'm very happy with my purchase. The system sounds great and not having to run wires to the rear speakers is a huge plus. No issues with the rears or sub disconnecting.

    It feels like I'm at the movies with out going to the movies! I have the two rear speakers behind my couch and when there's a helicopter going over head you can hear it so clearly and the bass on the subwoofer shakes the floor real good. It's so addicting to watch movies now with such good sound! Play videogames with this SoundBar takes gaming to a whole nother experience! I like that it has two rear speakers not a lot of sound bars that I've seen at this price offer that and that makes it a really good value some speakers don't even give you the option to add more speakers. But I've had a few issues with the sound bar where you can hear sound but no picture I've updated it and it works off and on.

    Did my research. Watched countless reviews. No regrets. This system packs a punch. Got this to go with my 82” Q6 Samsung tv. Plugged in my Apple 4K TV Directly to the HDMI 1 port on the sound bar and ran another for ARC directly to the tv. Dolby Atmos at home is amazing
