This soundbar has many different sound modes. I've found adaptive puts out the best sound for me. I have had this over a year and it still sounds incredible especially on games.

I bought my Samsung - HW-A550 2.1ch Sound bar with Dolby 5.1 in May, it was an (open box) item. Someone returned it after using it for a few years apparently, It was beat up bad. I still can’t believe they sold it in that condition, after hooking it up to my tv and trying it, to my surprise, it sounded great. For the price I kept it!

Compliments my 75 inch Samsung TV wonderfully. I had to contact their tech support unit because the instructions were horrible, therefore one star off. But their tech support was courteous, professional, and patient. Had it up an running in no timel. The unit provides the additional sound needed for a large tv, without the hassel of setting up a multiple speaker system. The bass is more than sufficient and the bar allows you to hear dialogue that you don't otherwise catch.

This is by far the best purchase I’ve made and the cyber Monday deal saved me $100. DTS virtual X and surround sound quality really feels like 360 degrees. The subwoofer is awesome and that’s just for tv use. The music quality is crisp and clean and it really is an all around excellent sound system without dropping $1k or more!! It also has a gaming features that makes you feel like you’re in the game.

This soundbar is amazing, the sound it displays is great weather its on bluetooth, HDMI, or the best option optical audio. It turns my living room into a home theater with just the bar and sub. I could imagine how much better it would be with the surround sound add on. The only negative thing is that I wish you can use the normal TV remote to change the volume when using optical audio, but its no big deal using the soundbar remote.

Brand response from Samsung
Posted .
Hi Nick!
Thank you for purchasing the Samsung HW-A550 soundbar with Adaptive Sound Lite Mode that automatically optimizes your sound based on what you are watching. I am glad to hear you are enjoying the audio quality provided by your new Samsung soundbar.
You can adjust the Soundbar volume using the TV’s remote control. This function can be used with IR remote controls only. Bluetooth remote controls (remote controls that require pairing) are not supported. Set the TV speaker to External Speaker to use this function.
1) Turn Off the Soundbar. 2) Push up and hold the WOOFER button for 5 seconds. Each time you push the WOOFER button up and hold it for 5 seconds, the mode switches in the following order: “Samsung-TV Remote” (Default mode), “Off-TV Remote”, “All-TV Remote”. The LED indicator status changes each time the mode is changed.
Should you ever have questions or need help, please call us at:
1-800-SAMSUNG (ask for Soundbars), available 8AM -12AM EST (Mon-Fri), 9AM – 6PM EST (Sat). Or text HELP to 62913.
For additional support resources, visit us on the Samsung website and click on the ‘Support’ link in the upper right corner of the homepage for: 1) More ‘Contact Us’ options – LiveChat, Facebook, Twitter, Samsung Community, Samsung Members app 2) Manuals & Software 3) Warranty Info 4) Product Registration: For access to easy warranty support, convenient opt-in to special promos and offers, faster troubleshooting and service, and quick notification of system updates.

awesome soundbar that I purchased! I was not regretted for buying this. It's worth to buy it. No kidding! You would love it after you purchase it unless it's still available at Best Buy. I was glad that I purchased it at the lowest price.. at least 68% off.. two thumbs up!

Love this, i was able to get the floor model so i saved some money. I have a 65 in Samsung and as everyone knows the sound can be a little low, you can have it maxed out and still some dialog can be a bit unclear. This sound bar makes a whole lot of difference and the sub woofer pumps out a good amount of bass. I highly recommend this especially if you can get the floor model for a couple dollars cheaper.
