    The first sound bar I bought, remote control didn’t raise or lower the volume, so had to return the unit to BestBuy. BB was awesome to work with. Problem clearly with the soundbar since the same issue happened with a programmed universal remote. Samsung service were uncooperative and didn’t want to authorize a repair until they sent me a new remote (three weeks, and am still waiting for that remote). The second one worked so-so with a digital optical cable. I then tried an HDMI cable (connected to the Hdmi ARC ports ) and it works great now. I have an older Samsung TV and it appears the soundbar doesn’t talk well with the tv using the digital optical cable. Problem is that once you set the TV audio output to Optical, the TV remote does not control volume any more. With the HDMI/ARC connection, you can use your TV remote. I love Samsung but this was a poor experience.

    Good sound for the budget when using it for the TV, but some issues when connecting my Samsung Galaxy smartphone to play music, some random horrible scratch sounds. No real solution found. If your planning to use as sound system better think on a independent sound system to play your music.

    Open Box - No Remote

    The product itself is incredible and a great choice for your TV setup. Sound is crisp and loud, and the sub puts out good sound. If you are buying Open Box, be warned that you may not be receiving everything. I was given the soundbar and subwoofer wrapped individually in bubble wrap. Thankfully, the power cords were included, but I’ve heard of people not receiving cords or even the subwoofer when buying open box. There was no remote included, and I had to buy a 3rd party one. I wish that Best Buy could let you know if things are missing, because buying a refurbished product certainly implies you will be receiving everything included.

    The Samsung B650 3.1 Channel soundbar is good for what it is. I have to adjust it on certain movies for it to sound better. For the price it's a good buy.

    Easy set up and sounds great in my living room that measures 15x15. One downside to note is the remote will not shoot through my tv. If you plan to mount the Tv on the wall and place the soundbar behind your tv this may not be the sound bar for you. I will update this review if I find out its a bad remote
