    We purchased this for my parents as a gift and they absolutely love it. The quality is great, the sound is crisp, and it was a super easy set up and use as well. It even fits nicely on their tv stand! Would definitely recommend this to whoever is searching for an affordable sound upgrade.

    I bought the Samsung HW-0400 Soundbar for use with my PC. It sits in front of 32" monitor & has exceeded expectations. I tried 3 other brand sound bars before buying this Samsung. It has great separation with the Surround mode & the built in woofer adds depth to the overall sound. I've watched videos & movie trailers with it & music & have not been disappointed. It would be a great sound bar for a smaller room & 32"-48" TV.

    Decent little sound bar. Easy set up. Bass is actually good for its size as well. We also have a Samsung sound bar & subwoofer for the living room. It is a little better quality. But that’s too be expected I only paid something like a hundred bucks for this one and it’s perfect for the bedroom and fits between the legs of our 43” Samsung

    Sound is outstanding. I can hear Jimmy Carrs' laugh clearly and with great stereo separation. Look at the photo I added. My mundane entertainment center is highlighted by the slightly off centered sound bar.

    I purchased this soundbar for my office TV just to enhanve the sound. I am actually impressed with the quality of sound for what I paid for it. Its definitely better than the TV speaker and the woofers actually sound good as well. My 3 star rating is because there is no display screen. I have to guess volume levels, source, etc. It does have a voice that will tell you which mode you are in but options are limited.

      Hi Avion,

      Thank you for reviewing the HW-C400 Soundbar. I'm happy to hear you are enjoying the sound quality of your new 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.

    I purchased it to go with my Samsung bedroom TV. Since it is the bedroom I didn't need anything powerful so it serves its purposes. Not many sound features to choose from. I would definitely go with an upgraded sound bar for my livingroom. Was easy to hook up with Wifi and directly to tv.

    I am super pleased with my new sound bar. It had made a huge difference, and is a noticeable improvement. Wayne a Geek Squad guy alerted me that i might want to invest in a sound bar. As always, the Geek Squad was spot on. The installer was professional and knowledgeable. I love Best Buy. And I would advise anyone to get a Geek Squad membership.

      Hi Sunflower,

      I am sorry to hear that you are not completely satisfied with the overall volume of the HW-C400 Soundbar. You will probably want to select PCM audio on your TV. You'll get much louder volume that way, and potentially better sound quality.

      If your Digital Output Audio Format isn't set to PCM, for instance, if you have a Dolby option selected, then you will likely notice decreased maximum volume. Dolby options are designed for surround systems (like 3.1.2 or 7.1), whereas PCM provides great sound quality for stereo speakers.

      On a Samsung TV this can be found at Home > Settings > Sound > Expert Settings. (It can also be found in the Quick Settings.)

      I hope this helps. For further assistance with settings, features, or functions, please contact Samsung Customer Support. Just give us a call at 1-800-SAMSUNG (Ask for Soundbars), 8AM - 12AM EST, 7 days a week. Our Live Chat agents are also available by clicking on the ‘Support’ link on our website.
