    Bought the Samsung 55-inch QLED flat screen first. Spent almost a grand, so put off the sound bar and subwoofer. NOW that I have it, mistake. The sound quality is better now like day and night! Easy to configure with tv and remote.

    Great sound quality and plays nicely with my Samsung TV. Love the dual Bluetooth connection feature too. For $400 (which would be “full price”) I might expect a little more, but I do feel it was well worth the $200 I spent on it.

    Love, love, love my new purchase. This thing packs a punch. Have it in my living room and it adds to my movie theater experience. That's if everyone else doesn't say IT'S TOO LOUD...LOL. Kudos to best buy for doing me right with all the errors in the delivery process. Would ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND!!

    I'm amazed with this soundbar. Bought this for my Samsung Series 7 and has been great. Would recomend investing in the rear speakers to pair with this. Overall a good soundbar for the price.

    Bought this in addition to 2020 model for new tv. Works great and sound is perfect for basement Samsung tv. Only thing see different is that the TV is not wanting to control the volume from the tv’s remote like my other system does. Settings set to control. Still have to play with it more. But first week that was the only thing I saw

      Hi Tvbuyer,

      Thank you for purchasing the new HW-B650 Soundbar and taking the time to leave a review with your thoughts.

      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”.

      Hi blucheese!

      I'm happy to see that you are enjoying your new HW-B650 Soundbar! It features powerful bass with a 6.5” wireless subwoofer & Adaptive Sound Lite which optimizes the sound based on the content.

      You can try adjusting audio performance to your liking by pressing the SOUND MODE button on your soundbar remote, and then selecting the desired sound effect by choosing STANDARD, SURROUND SOUND, BASS BOOST, GAME, ADAPTIVE, or DTS VIRTUAL:X.

      You can also press the Sound Control button on the remote (looks like a gear) to adjust TREBLE and BASS. Press and hold the Sound Control button for about 5 seconds to adjust the sound for each of seven frequency bands. (Set sound mode to standard)

    I like this sound bar a lot. It really helps with the sound from our tv. I couldn’t not solve all of the issues with the optical cable so used and HDMI cable and it was super easy to install and connect to tv etc. I wish I would have begun with that cord.
