    Very easy to set up. It paired with my non-Samsung tv with no issues and it looks good on my entertainment center.

    I love this sound bar. The bass is loud and the speaker bar is very balanced. This thing can definitely rumble. It’s in a bonus room that’s 20x30 and we can hear it outside when it’s up loud. And the price is great.

    Works great and easy to put up paid for installation but they said I didn’t have the required items necessary for installation. Needless to say, was able to do it on my own. Also if you get this get the available package that has the extra speakers otherwise you can do like I did and pay double for the speakers by themselves not a good move.

    For the price we got this it is amazing. We havent turned it up more than 25% because we have a new baby but cannot imagine how good it will sound. Very good sound at low levels so far.

    A great soundbar HW650 3.1 DTS Virtual X

    The 3.1 makes all the difference for dialog and voices. Worth it when it’s on sale (around $200-ish). A very good soundbar that is clear with both the mids and highs (not great for low bass). The wireless subwoofer is a bit underpowered, but clean sounding. This would work great for any small/mid size living room or bedroom.

    Pretty good bang for your buck sound system. Pretty good quality . Not super loud but loud enough and the bass is descent. Would recommend as an introductory sound system.

    Sounds amazing. The bass is awesome too. The sound fills the whole chop and when I walk across the street, I can even hear the bass over there from 200 feet away! Plus, you can pair your phone to it and play music straight off your phone.

    For what you pay, this is a solid sound bar. If you don’t have good space to set up surround sound and are looking for good sound from just the bar and a subwoofer, this is the way to go. My only complaint is that the remote isn’t very intuitive, and it makes me not want to mess around with the settings. However the standard settings get the job done for most things.

    Great starter soundbar. Ive never had a soundbar but i have had systems in my cars (custom built in ones) so having a good soundbar for 299.00 open room you can feel the bass and thump and is loud. We often play music videos and watch movies which this sound bar is AMAZING for. Just make sure you adjust the soundbar settngs to base i want too say. Must buy!

      Hi ryantrejo23

      Thank you for your purchase and review of the HW-B650 Soundbar!

      Your soundbar 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. Then, select 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 (which 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)

      Additionally, using the WOOFER button on the remote, you can adjust the subwoofer's volume between -6 to +6 by toggling the button up or down. To set the subwoofer volume level to 0, press the button down.

    Initially I was very frustrated with the set up: I couldn't get the sound to come from both my TV and my DVD player. I could get one, but not the other. It was finally an online video I found that suggested unplugging the ENTIRE system, tv/DVD/speaker, wait a bit, then plug back in and turn on. Working! The sound is good, and I like the little display on the side that tells you the sound level...although it could be easier to set up: there are quite a few settings to scroll through. Otherwise, I'm content.

    I wasn't planning to purchase a sound bar but I knew that our new 85' TV needed to put out more volume. My hearing is starting go a little bit and I am too young for hearing aids. I received a message from Best Buy on a few deals that they were offering. One deal happen to be a soumdbar with a subwoofer. It has some great reviews and it looked amazing. Once I got it home, my husband hooked it up and WOW what a beautiful clear sounds from the Music app. I am still amazed that I purchased a A+ system without any suggestions from my husband. I am one happy customer!

    I have always wanted a rich surround experience. This soundbar has several sound modes. Even one for video game sounds. I just discovered that I can play my Music straight to the sound bar itself and get unbelievable sound. The subwoofer adds the punch I love. It ado has several settings even negative levels It brings the sound to life highly recommend

    I bought this sound bar because the first one I bought was the wrong one and it sounded terrible. So, I bought this one because I was told to get a 3 channel soundbar, so I hooked it up and it sounds much better than the other one that I bought. I really like this soundbar very much I am glad that a BestBuy employee recommended a 3channel soundbar. which would be better sound.

    Upon opening. The grill was dented. I didn’t feel like going through the process of returning so as long as it worked, I was going to keep it, and it worked! Definitely adds to my TV sound which sucked terribly! Nothing too fancy but the sub is a plus adding low end! This product would have been better if it had additional little speakers.
