    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.

    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.

    Good basic soundbar for small budget

    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.

    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!

    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.

    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.

    Excellent Theater Experience

    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.

    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.

    I didn't think a smaller soundbar would pack so much sound. The overall bar itself is great for any space. I placed mine in my bedroom and I love it. The built in woofer is amazing. I love watching movies and hearing the effects come from the soundbar. Samsung never misses! The only thing I would say I dislike about it, is that when I'm in bed, my soundbar sits lower to the ground so u can't see the diaplay. Other than that 10/10! If u dont have an optical sound connection for your tv, just a heads up, buy a converter. For the price, you absolutely can not beat this deal. RUN AND GRAB YOU ONE ASAP!

    Overall, the sound bar by Samsung is great for the price. Since I’ve had it, it has not let me down and it works every time and sound quality is awesome and it’s very easy to use. It’s a great little starter sound bar for somebody on a budget for sure!

    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.

    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.

    I was always skeptical about soundbars, and wasn't sure how- or if- it could enhance my TV viewing experience, especially when I'm watching action-packed movies or sports. However, I decided to take a chance on the Samsung C Series 2.0 Ch Soundbar with built-in subwoofer and bass. This product set out to prove me wrong, and made a believer out of me! The sound is so rich and clear. The bass is incredible! The trebile is amazing! It almost makes you feel like you're at the movie theater, yet, you're in your own home. I can also use the bluetooth feature on this soundbar and sync it to my phone and tablet to play music, and the sound is phenomenal! I got a good deal on the price of this item, which I'm surprised about. It was definitely worth every penny I paid for it. I am very happy with my purchase, and plan on using this product to its fullest potential for many years to come!

    Decent Budge Soundbar

    Not the best, nor is it the worst, when it comes to budget sound bars. Remote handles well, though you really have to pay attention to what the bar says when messing with it, as there is no other visual feedback on what you're doing (outside of white dots indicating volume level). I've only used this via optical, so can't speak to wireless connectivity. Definitely a step above using built-in TV speakers, and the bass level is decent considering this is a 2.0 bar. But keep expectations low given the price point. Has good volume though
