Its a 4 for this price point. I have a like one of the standard Samsung CU Crystal tvs 65 inch and the built in speaker is bogus. This thing is easy to set up and i get decent sound that is more in line with the TV quality. Its got a built in sub, thats good enough for movies, tv and casual tune listening. The sub is making my games with big bass, hit harder too. The surround sound setting seems to really spread out, i like it for TV and movies. The problem with the settings is i cant figure out how to really adjust, like the sub can go up or down, but where is it currently at? It says its got modes, but i got no idea how to switch, other than surround on or off. Maybe I need to figure something out here, but for how intuitive connecting to the TV was, setting adjustment seems a mystery. No interface on the device. Ultimately, a good deal for a single pieced sound system that works.

This Samsung soundbar is the perfect fit for my 55 inch Samsung TV. Our TV viewing experience is much better, sound is clearer, the bass is acceptable, although you can add a separate subwoofer, and the value is about where you would expect it. Some of the controls for sound shaping can be a bit confusing at first but I figured it out rather quickly. Our room to watch TV is not overly larger but without this soundbar it was becoming hard to hear dialogue in movies. Worth it to pick one up

I can't believe this item doesn't cost more!! The sound quality is PERFECT and is already balanced in a way that most sound bars don't come custom from the factory. I WOULD GIVE IT 10 **********!

I like the Samsung HW-C400/ZA but I don't love it. I needed to replace a Samsung soundbar in my living room of an open first floor. This was a very good price. Also, this soundbar has a sleek minimalist design so it doesn't block the TV. I can still see the scores that are shown at the bottom of the TV screen! The aspects I don't love: it enhances the TV sound but doesn't replace it. I can't turn the TV sound off and just use the soundbar (I could on my previous Samsung soundbar); also the indicator lights on the soundbar are not helpful to know status. Lastly, I tried to connect my previous Samsung wireless subwoofer and had no luck. That might be a compatibility issue since the subwoofer is several generations older.

Good Sounding Bar
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I wanted to add something with more full stereo sound instead of the built in speakers in my 40" Samsung TV. And wow the sound that comes out made the TV better by 2 to 3 times better (plus having the tv and sound bar on, makes this a perfect combination). This sound bar added a more fuller vocals and midrange to make my TV experience really good. What is missing is a big booming subwoofer but if your just needing a better louder/fuller TV sound than just the built in tv speakers, adding this sound bar will work well for the price they have it for. Plus I only had this for 2 days so far so I am hoping this will last if I don't over play it to loud to ruin it.

The soundbar itself delivers excellent sound quality, making it a great addition to any home entertainment system. The audio clarity, bass depth, and overall performance are impressive, especially considering its size. However, it's worth noting that the soundbar does not come with its own stands or mounting hardware. If you're looking to place it on a stand or mount it on the wall, you’ll need to purchase those accessories separately. This is something to keep in mind when budgeting for the product, as the added cost of stands or mounts could be an additional expense. Despite this, the soundbar’s performance is outstanding, and it is definitely worth considering if you're willing to invest a bit more for the extra setup options.

This is a good basic soundbar for the smaller budget. This was my first soundbar purchase and was not sure it was something I needed. It definitely improves the TV sound, so there's the plus. Having bluetooth is convenient and makes setup very easy. Now that I've wet my toes in the soundbar area, I may be brave enough to upgrade for the family room and move this one to the bedroom. Good quality for the price, no regrets on the purchase.

This soundbar turns my basement into a personal movie theater - mission accomplished! The sound is crisp, loud, and the bass hits hard enough to make explosions feel real.
The only problem? It works a little too well. My wife has developed superhuman hearing and can detect when I've nudged the volume up even slightly. Apparently "the whole house shaking" isn't her idea of immersive audio. Who knew?
All in all, great soundbar that delivers excellent theater-quality sound. Just make sure your spouse is prepared for some seismic activity during movie night. Your entertainment room will love it, but your marriage might need subtitles.

Exceptional Sound Quality - Samsung Sound Bar

I recently upgraded my home entertainment system with the Samsung sound bar featuring built-in woofers, and it has exceeded all my expectations. The sound quality is nothing short of outstanding, delivering rich, deep bass and crystal-clear highs that enhance every movie, music track, and game.
The integration of built-in woofers eliminates the need for a separate subwoofer, making setup simpler and reducing clutter. Despite its compact design, the sound bar provides powerful, immersive audio that fills the room beautifully. The Bluetooth connectivity is seamless, and the remote control is intuitive, making it easy to adjust settings on the fly.
Overall, this Samsung sound bar offers exceptional performance and convenience, providing a theater-like experience right in my living room. If you're looking for top-notch sound quality with minimal hassle, this sound bar is an excellent choice. Highly recommended!

Overall, the sound, quality, and set up is relatively good. Setting up the speaker via bluetooth was the hardest part as the instructions didn't provide troubleshooting options so I had to look them up. I wish the sound was a bit louder but for the price and size, it works fine!

This is a basic, barebones soundbar. You can connect to it by USB, Bluetooth, or optical wire. Subwoofer is built into the soundbar. The sound is crisp, clean, and loud, and there is enough bass to balance against higher tones. There aren't a lot of options for connectivity or for customizing output. You can do better than this, but you can also do a lot worse. For the price, you're getting a simple but good-sounding device that's great for small rooms and a step or two above a tv's built-in speakers.

I’m giving this sound bar 4 stars out of 5 because when turned off and turned on, it sometimes loses the connection to the tv and there is no sound. Also, the volume controls aren’t the easiest to work. Aside from those two issues, this is a decent product. I bought it at recommendation of a friend to hear my LG tv better. The TV seems to make the speaker on the back which, against the wall, muffles conversations.

Great sound for the value! We use this with our 75” tv in the living room, the sound is great much better than the tv speakers. Great for everyday use has decent bass for the price and super easy to connect and use with your tv. It has a sleek look to it that matches perfect with any setup you have.

The Samsung HW-C400/ZA soundbar delivers surprisingly rich sound for its size. The built-in woofer adds decent bass without needing an external subwoofer, and it works great for small to medium rooms. Setup is quick, and Bluetooth connectivity makes streaming from my phone effortless. It's a solid upgrade over TV speakers, especially for the price.

It's not the best of the best, but for something relatively inexpensive it's one of the best speakers I've had. The bass isn't bump the room strong but it's strong enough that if all you needed was to be able to hear more bass, it's perfect. It definitely completes your TV setup by having great sound quality.
