An amazing soundbar with Dolby Atmos for the price
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This soundbar has a very clear and loud sound. It is impressive how good the surround sound is without having rear speakers. If you are going to buy a soundbar, make sure it has Dolby Atmos. This is the best budget version that has Dolby Atmos. There is better, but it will cost more. For a small to medium room, this will more than get the job done.

Great sound, read manual though
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent sound, seamless integration with the new Samsung TV. The display on the soundbar needs to be better; difficult to read particularly at a distance. Also highly recommend reading the manual to take advantage of all available settings. Other than that, it's a great product.

Well worth it, as long as it is $200 or less
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this when it was on sale and it's living up to expectations. I love the arc connection as the sound bar becomes the main audio for the TV and it powers on and off with my Samsung TV remote. There is no lag between audio and video.

It’s great… when it works.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So the sound bar is great but twice in the last month I have had to hard reset it. Like rather unplug or reset breaker! Not easy with being plugged behind the tv!!! But when it works it works great. It is the only one that we could find that was longer to match our large tv.

||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have tried setting up this soundbar with bluetooth, optical and HDMI(ARC). None of these options produced the output I expected. I also tried conneting Samsung external speakers. Still no marked improvement. I also had a Geek Squad visit, hoping that thupis woukd help. If I’m missing something, I’d love to know it! I have had this unit since 2022.
