    Works really good! Connected easily with my Samsung Tv. I just wish you can connect it other ways besides optical cable. I had to buy a new TV to be able to connect it

    We needed a replacement soundbar for our TV. This worked well for us. While we don't have it extremely loud, the sound is clear and we were happy with the price point.

    I got this for you Christmas.. It sounds great for the price that was spent. The Bluetooth matched up with the audio perfectly. Very impressed with the sound. Almost like you are at a theater. I would recommend this soundbar to anyone on a budget. Easy to hook up with Bluetooth.

      Hi SlayJ,

      We appreciate you taking a moment to review the HW-C400 Soundbar.

      You can optimize your audio performance to your liking by pressing the SOUND MODE button on your soundbar remote and then selecting the desired sound effect by choosing SURROUND SOUND or STANDARD.

      By pressing the TONE CONTROL button, you can adjust the volume of the treble or bass sound. Press the button to select TREBLE or BASS and then adjust the volume between -6~+6 by using the Up/Down buttons.

      Press and hold the SOUND CONTROL button for about 5 seconds to adjust the sound for each frequency band. 150Hz, 300Hz, 600Hz, 1.2kHz, 2.5kHz, 5kHz, and 10kHz are selectable using the Left/Right buttons and each can be adjusted to a setting between -6 to +6 using the Up/Down buttons. (Make sure the Sound mode is set 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.

      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.

    Does the job and works as intended. Definitely not gods sound bar but what do you really expect from a sound bar. You want amazing sounf quality go for a full surround system.

    Very good sound for the price. Only downfall, for me, is there is only one set of mounting holes and they are only for wall mounting. I wanted to mount the sound board to the bottom of the tv.

    This is very user unfriendly. It also does not produce the loudness the description suggests. I would have returned it for a refund but previous experiences with Best Buy returns has not been good....large restocking fee.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Great sound, covers a small studio very well. The different input sources make it easier to connect several things (TV, turntable, bluetooth) at the same time. Switching between sources is not automatic, but not a hassle.

    Product does exactly what was intended. I was skeptical at first because no other sound bars were compatible with my Samsung tv. However, the nice lady helped me and mentioned she had the same exact one and it has worked exponentially!!! Needless to say she was correct!! Thankful!!

    It works OK, but has limited choices for input. I bought an open box that came without a remote. After arguing with the outlet salesman, he finally replaced my remote.
