Works OK
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound bar is well built and looks good and works well. But I am not sure that the subwoofer is working. It is on, and there is some slight sound from it, and it doesn't make any difference whether it is on or off.

Posted .Hi VickyK,
Thank you for taking a few moments to review the Samsung HW-B650 Soundbar.
Thank you for choosing this Samsung Soundbar. We value your feedback regarding issues with the soundbar and TV ARC.
Here are a few things you can check to resolve the ARC issue:
1) Make sure the TV has the latest software Version
2) Try setting the digital audio output setting on the TV to PCM
3) Try a different HDMI cable. The cable should be a high-speed HDMI cable capable of 4K/30Hz
