    My wife is always over driving the sound on the TV so I splurged on the soundbar and it is worth the money. Don't know why you need to spend more. Loud enough no distortion, works with the TV and TV remote, once hooked up and on, no need to touch it again.

    Purchased this for my mom and dad after they got a new Samsung tv. Plug and play. Easy to use and one remote for everything was a bonus because the soundbar was also Samsung. Great sound!

    This sound bar is great and it blows my mind because you can hear everything so crystal clear that you would think that the movie or television show that you are watching is right in your house along side of you.. This is one purchase you wouldn’t regret buying

    Excellent Sound and bass for my needs in the kitchen TV. Came with mounts which was a plus! I found a YouTube video for easy instructions on mounting to the wall. Purchased drywall screw kit from Target. FYI when connecting the digital optical cable you'll have to change the settings.

    I'm happy with the sound quality of the bar and woofer; connected via digital optical. The only downside might be the small remote. As for price, excellent.

    Our TV is in a large room and it was sometimes difficult to hear it so we purchased a sound bar. We purchased the 450 on sale so we got a good deal and and it sure has performed. Especially like the bass from the subwoofer.

    Use this sound bar for my computer audio. Its a great system. I got it on an open box return and I dont know why they brought it back. I have it connected with an optical audio cable and the sounds are so crisp.

    It’s a good speaker for the price, it doesn’t have much boom, but I think it is worth it. It’s easy to set up, not many wires, it gives you tools to wall mount it, so that was cool.

      Hello Ness,

      There are a few adjustments that you can make that will improve your audio experience with your new HW-B450 Soundbar.

      By pressing the TON CONTROL button, you can adjust the volume of the treble or bass sound.
      • Press the button to select TREBLE or BASS and then adjust the volume between -6~+6
      by using the Up/Down buttons.

      By pressing the SOUND MODE button, you can select the desired sound mode.
      SURROUND SOUND - GAME - ADAPTIVE - BASS BOOST - STANDARD

      – SURROUND SOUND
      Provides a wider sound field than standard.
      – GAME
      Provides stereoscopic sound to immerse you in the action while gaming.
      – ADAPTIVE
      Analyzes the content in real time and automatically provides an optimal sound field
      based on the characteristics of the content.
      – BASS BOOST
      Sound field mode with emphasis on bass sound.
      – STANDARD
      Outputs the original sound.
      • DRC (Dynamic Range Control)
      Lets you apply dynamic range control to Dolby Digital tracks. Press and hold the SOUND MODE button for more than 5 seconds while the Soundbar is powered off to turn DRC (Dynamic Range Control) on or off. With the DRC turned on, loud sound is reduced. (The sound may be distorted.)

      I hope these settings will make your soundbar more enjoyable.

      Should you ever have questions or need help, please call us at 1-800-SAMSUNG (ask for Soundbars), available 8 AM – 12 AM EST, 7 days a week.

    I just got this last week and I am extremely happy.. The set up is wireless and that was a plus. Both the soundbar and sub are wireless. After going through the different settings I found the perfect balance of sound. My living room sounds amazing.
