Bought this sound bar on a whim to replace a 10 yr old polk sound bar. This thing pairs flawlessly to my s95b tv and the one remote for all is great also. The Bluetooth is chrisp as is the sounds from all sources. I am impressed would definitely recommend for anybody not looking to break the bank but still have great sound quality.

I put this in my bedroom and it sounds great. I don’t really care for the whole surround sound thing, but the newer tvs don’t have a great built in sound system, so this was necessary. The subwoofer really adds on to the sound effects and makes the whole system sound like I’m in my own personal movie theater

This is great. The sub rocks. Four of our tvs have sound/subwoofers, one is a Bose. This overall hangs with the Bose but the sub can be turned up to rumble and vibrate like a movie theater. It also far surpasses the other two, one of which is a Samsung.
It’s not hooked up to the best tv in the house but it’s our goto for an action movie or one with a great soundtrack.

Hw550 has good sound levels and good bass. The audio customization allows you to adjust range levels to add more clarity. I'm now past the return date but I would have wanted to upgrade to the 650 for the center channel. For 97% of movies and shows, the 550 is awesome. But, I was watching the Godfather the other day and the dialog was lacking.

This set is great for a small to medium sized area. I currently use it in my bedroom, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't want to get another set just for our living room. The overall sound quality is great, and the sub will rattle the shelves on my wall if I let it. Music or movies this setup has you covered.

Love the sound! Full, rich sound and good bass. We have a decent size living area and the this unit really fills the room nicely and still have plenty of headroom if needed. I am really pleased with our purchase and would definitely buy again!

Great sound output and easy to change the bass with the remote. Good size and sound for a small living room or den. Action movies will not lose the upbeat with this soundbar!

Awesome sound bar, just loud enough for my house. I love the different settings for what I’m watching. Easy to install, if your tv is anything like mine it pretty much sets itself up.

It’s pretty good the sub sounds nice. There was an issue with the speaker when I first got it- it sounded like the left side of the soundbar was blown out but after resetting it the problem seemed to cease. Over all fairly happy with it. The sound is great when I’m playing video games.

This sound bar is great!!! The sound is amazing! We had to purchase this due to our last soundbar dying (we had it for about 10 years) and the sound on this one way better! We were very surprised with how good the quality was for the price!!

Returned a Bose soundbar to get this one with a woofer. It looks good, just fits in front of my Sony TV on the stand. Having a little trouble understanding how to adjust the bass. Love that the TV and soundbar now work off of my DirectTV remote - no fiddling with 3 remotes!

Brand response from Samsung

Hi There,
To be able to use the TV or another remote to control the soundbar, follow these steps provided below.
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: “OFF-TV REMOTE” (Default mode), “SAMSUNG-TV REMOTE”, “ALL-TV REMOTE”.
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.

Great sound, easy install. You spent the money on the tv, spend a few bucks and get the best sound and more for gaming as well as music without stressing the tv speakers.
