Great Sound 3.1 the way to go.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound bar sounds great in what ever mode you use. Standard, Surround, Adaptive, Bass, Game and Dolby Virtual 5.1, all sound good. The Virtually is the we best but not all movies /TV can utilize it. The 3.1 option is key. My neighbors are close to me, but i like good sound. The 3.1 lets you hear the speech/voices much louder and clear than 2.1’s. Also it has night mode which lowers every but eliminates the heavy bass sound of movies.

Great Value for the money!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased this as a gift for my Dad who was tired of the TV sound. Great clarity and the bass is just enough without being too much for him. He’s not having to turn the volume up as much on the sound bar vs the tv since the sound comes directly at him. Definitely recommend!

Soundbar with great sound for music and movies
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound and voice clarity. The subwoofer is well balanced to give you just enough bass in music as well as movies and everyday TV watching. I bought this as a replacement for an older model Samsung soundbar and subwoofer system. This one blows it away.

Soundly Satisfied!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I couldn't have spent my money better. Didn't want to spend a lot of money, so I was a little nervous about the quality I get from this soundbar but it definitely exceeded my expectations. I love the different audio modes, the subwoofer produces a great round sound and the bluetooth pairs easily. Definitely a value for money buy.

Started great...
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased as an upgrade to the Bose bar I purchased. At first it was a great addition. Had owned my Bose bar while overseas but had no sub so the thought appealed. However I began to notice the sound wouldn't match up (talking and actors dialog would be off by a few secs). It would correct itself but always be off a few days later. I might have been able to deal with that because the bass was fantastic! Until I had to keep turning the bar up as loud as it would go and STILL couldn't hear anything! I finally gave up and it's been in the closet since. Smh.

Posted .NicholasP,
Thank you for your review of Samsung’s HW-B650 Soundbar. I’m sorry to hear you had a frustrating experience with syncing and volume.
There are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot your Soundbar.
First, you will want to download the latest software for your Soundbar. You can download the firmware directly from Samsung’s website by clicking “Support” in the top right corner. Then go to “Manuals & Software” > “TVs & Home Audio” > “Home Audio” > “Sound Bars”. From there, you can select the HW-B650 under B Series.
Download the update and install it via USB thumb stick to your soundbar. If you need additional help, there are how-to instructions on this page. Please know that Samsung Customer Service is here to assist as well.
Please verify that you are running the latest firmware on your TV. You can check to see what software version your TV is using and if there is an available update through the settings on your TV. Go to: Menu > Settings > Support > Software Update.
First, try doing a soft reset, unplug the soundbar from the outlet for roughly 30 seconds and then plug it back in.
If this still does not correct your issue, then do a hard reset. With the Soundbar on, press the + & - Volume buttons on the body of the soundbar at the same time for at least 5 seconds. INIT OK” appears on the display and then the Soundbar is reset.
If you need more help, Samsung is here for you. Please call us at 1-800-SAMSUNG, 8AM - 12AM EST (Ask for Soundbars), 7 days a week. Our Live Chat agents are also available by clicking on the ‘Support’ link on our website.

I like it
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like this mid range soundbar. I just bought for our bedroom since we dont need really anything over the top. The sound is amazing and can get pretty loud. Night mode and voice enhancement are a great feature. I also like that the subwoofer doesnt need to be directly connected to the soundbar so i can place it wherever i want.

Great gift
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the price this is a pretty decent sound bar. I'm no expert though... My only complaint is that every time you turn in the TV you have to connect it would be much easier if it would automatically connect.

Nice little system
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm not much of a techie but I appreciate great sound. This system fits well. It is nice that I can expand it later with satellite speakers. The different sound settings make every movie, TV show, and everythings else in between sound excellent.
