    Very easy to set up. Sound is very good. Would have preferred that the bass had a light to show it was one like my last sound bar set, but this is a quibble.

    Great sound quality for the price. Only issue I have with it seems to be related to my older 4k Sony TV. The sound bar will turn itself on if it is detecting a signal from the optical connection, but will also turn itself on in my case when the TV is turned off and there is no signal coming to it.

      Posted .

      Hello janb2,

      Thank you for sharing your thoughts regarding the HW-B550 Soundbar. We appreciate your experiences with your new unit.

      If you do not want your soundbar to power on when your TV powers on, you will need to turn Auto Power Link off. This feature is turned on by default.

      Press and hold the left direction on the direction pad on the soundbar remote for more than 5 seconds or until Auto Power Link appears on the soundbar display to activate or deactivate Auto Power Link.

      I hope this helps you fix your issue with the soundbar!

      I hope this tip helps improve your enjoyment. For more help, please call us at 1-800-SAMSUNG (Ask for Soundbars), 8 AM – 12 AM EST, 7 days a week. LiveChat with an agent as well as manuals, software, and warranty info can be found at the ‘Support’ link on our Samsung website.

    Not too bad for price. Projects the sound great and woofer is cool for sound effects. A few connection issues. Switching between streaming services and sound will go out. Tuning off and back on seems to correct. Sound doesn’t always track with shows, again pausing and restarting will correct.

    Finally a piece of electronic gear that you don't need an electronics degree to hook up!! A power cord and an optical cable, your done with the soundbar part. The subwoofer is even better, a power cord only. My old system had about 10 wires and cables
