    Great sound quality. I love that we can separate the bass from the sound bar. We have an L shaped couch and put the bass in the corner. Sound bar is directly in front of the tv and the sound is incredible. It has the full surround sound feeling. We originally went with the Bose sound bar for our Samsung Smart TV and that was a mistake because the sound quality was surprisingly poor for the name brand. We bought this Samsung sound bar to replace it and are very happy with the purchase!

    Purchased the HW - A650, as well as Samsung's 9100S model 2.0 rear speaker add on, for a living room upgrade from a Samsung HW - T550 2.1 soundbar and subwoofer system. I have the soundbar right under my television set, and the add on rear speakers beside my living room couch, approximately 10-12 feet away from the televison. The subwoofer stays on the floor, also by the couch. The first thing I'll touch on here is the overall loudness of the sound bar. This thing is able to fill up a living room. I have a high, slanted ceiling that ranges from 15 feet on on one side, to 25 or 30 feet on the other. The sound bar is good at projecting volume directly in front of it. It doesnt seem to get lost to the large open air space of the living room, which is phenomenal, and was one of my main concerns before purchasing it. At maximum, I set it to Volume 40/100, and this thing pushes some movie theater level sounds directly to my couch. While the subwoofer could be a bit more powerful at its default setting, there is a bass boost option, and you can adjust the subwoofer's volume through the system's settings as well. After some adjustments, the bass hits cleanly, and for video games especially, hits you with vibrations felt through my couch. Next, I want to talk about sound quality. Coming from a 2.1 speaker system to a 3.1, I wasnt expecting any kind of big change in quality. In a way, I'm kind of right, kind of wrong. The overall quality didn't change too much, however, the added center speaker works wonders for voice clarity. No longer am I missing a beat during action sequences. But it seems as though the center speaker will sometimes drain out the side speakers a little bit, or maybe I am being nitpicky, and not quite used to the center volume yet. Time will tell, but Ive hand the soundbar for about a month now, and I still notice it sometimes. As a basic 3.1 soundbar system, I'd say this is highly worth the money you pay for it, hands down. As stated earlier, I also purchased the 9100S model rear speakers, effectively upgading this bar to a 5.1 surround sound system. I paid roughly $450 for the combination, and after some tweaks to the settings, I have absolutely 0 regrets buying them together. I will leave a review on the 9100S rear speakers on their appropriate page in the future.

    I recommend going in-store and listening to your options when looking into a sound bar; I'm so glad I did. I was debating between this and the 2.1 channel and once I heard the difference in depth and vocal clarity I was sold. The sub adds so much to the experience and makes it feel like you're in the theatre. Setup was simple with my Samsung TV and I had it up and running in less time than it took me to unbox it. Hands down my favorite home electronic to date!

    I got this item as a open box. From 440 to 220 not bad. The sound is crisp and clear. The bass is a 7 out of 10 could be deeper but it's there and packs a punch. The side display is pretty terrible and slow when changing sound it's difficult to see but for the price and sound quality that can be over looked. Packs 430 watts great buy.
