Posted .Hi blvd,
Thank you for taking a moment to review the HW-C450 Soundbar.
Here are some tips to optimize your soundbar's audio performance.
Pressing the SOUND MODE button on your remote, and then selecting the desired sound effect by choosing SURROUND SOUND – GAME – ADAPTIVE – DTS VIRTUAL:X – BASS BOOST – STANDARD.
If you would like louder (or softer) bass from your subwoofer, you can adjust the level by rocking the WOOFER button on the soundbar remote, and then adjusting the level from -6 to +6. To set the subwoofer volume level to 0, press the button in.
You can adjust the Treble and Bass by pressing the TONE CONTROL button then use the UP/DOWN buttons to change the levels between -6 to +6.
For precise audio adjustments, you can use the 7-band frequency equalizer to optimize the sound for your room acoustics by pressing and holding the SOUND CONTROL button for about 5 seconds, make sure you also set the SOUND MODE to STANDARD.
You can also find your soundbar manual through the following link: https://downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/UM/202309/20230902040824001/HW-C450_LATIN_FM_02_L02_230206.0.pdf

Great sound bar
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this sound bar we were very happy with our sales guy.
I would recommend this to a friendNice and good price
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I highly recommend this product..im happy to buy it
I would recommend this to a friendSpend a few more bucks and avoid this model
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was expecting better sound. I have a 5-year-old Klipsch soundbar that I purchased from Best Buy that I was replacing. Perhaps I should have spent more money on this but I can tell you that the sound is "average". Very tinny sound, mediocre bass, and the max volume level still seems limited. I wish I would have spent a bit more. My old Klipsch soundbar is better.
