    I think it is a very good soundbar. I purchased it for someone else who isn't as picky about sound as I am, she loves it but I'm going give you my opinion as based on someone who understands watts per channel and things. When I have had the occasion to listen to it, it has great sound, it seems to be on surround cause I hear things all around. To me, the bass is a little low, but it does have a subwoofer setting, you can turn up/down to your liking, I really like that. It's not like you will say, this really bad, you are really going to like it. Easy setup.

    I bought an open box item (paid extra for the 'excellent condition' level) and the box was missing the mounts. That's Best Buy sucking, not the soundbar. The soundbar is great. I mounted it under my garage t.v. and the sound loud and clear. The base is ok, has some punch. I listen to mostly rock/hard rock/metal and it holds up well. The only real downside is the 1980's segmented display hidden in the center. I flashed back to 8th grade math class when we had the 'new' calculators with the 8 bars that made up each digit. Its the 2020's.. slap a color LCD on that bad boy. Nit picking aside, I would buy again.

    When my old soundbar was installed no one told me I had to charge it. After a couple of years, my TV kept telling me it needed a charge. I had no clue that I needed to do that. At installation, the installer said nothing about charging. He could have left me instructions, he did not. what a rip off! The sound was 'mushy' and no way to charge it? I even had Geek Total paid on it but I had to buy a new one and have it installed it. I had to buy a charger cord with both A and C ends to charge on my harddrive. It works well. But since I had Total on the old one, can some one tell me why I had to pay for a new one when this old was a 'mushy' sounding? The new one is crisp and clear, I love it!!

    Honestly, I liked this sound bar from day one. It's simple, it sounds good, and the woofer... wow, it's pretty good. It feels great without being overpowered, just what you need to give the music that rich punch without reselling anything. You put on your playlist, connect via Bluetooth in a second, and that's it. The good thing is that everything sounds clear: the voices, the instruments, the bass. You don't have to be a sound expert to notice it sounds good. Ideal for relaxing, setting the mood at home, or simply enjoying your favorite songs in good quality. No complications, no wires everywhere. Just good music and a woofer that does its job properly.

    The HW-C450 is a great soundbar and i cant recommend it enough. It would be nice if it had HDMI EARC output capabilities as the remote is kind of annoying to keep track of but I'm really impressed with clarity of the sound and ESPECIALLY the bass produced by the subwoofer.

    Good basic sound system, I hooked it to a 75" samsung TV via IR and the TV takes control of it. It's quite convenient and well integrated, its loud if you wish it to be, and the equalizer presets work fine.

    Geek Squad installed/wall mounted the sound bar along with my 75" Toshiba Fire TV. Absolutely amazing sound for the price! The blue tooth bass booms and the bar gives crisp highs and great mid tones. Movies have a great surround effect (which you can adjust for) and I listen to a lot of music through my tv and this does not disappoint. I am totally pleased and delighted!

    I was getting tired of the people playing their music to loud that lived above me. Didn’t want to call the cops. So I figured I would buy a sound bar with woofer. This set up is perfect. They can’t match me for sound & bass. For the money this set up works perfectly. Would definitely recommend it.

    This sound bar is insane there was little background noise and dialog i never heard on regular tv speakers. I about hear everything with this sound bar and the subwoofer is loud i have to turn down the bass level at some point. I sure do recommend to anyone that is looking for a good sound bar.

    I am blown away with the sound and quality of this sound bar and woofer! I wasn't expecting the superior volume to come out of this set up. I was missing out and this set up satisfied more than I imagined! After experiencing this sound upgrade I was asking myself why I waited so long to do this. I'll never go back at this point. Very happy with this purchase!

    It requires me to always use 2 remotes, why?

    Our speaker on our Samsung tv went out and I didn't want to get rid of a great tv, so I bought this soundbar. I'm impressed with the sound quality and sound options, but it's not novice friendly. It requires me to use 2 remotes (boo!), maybe there's a way to do it with one but we tried several options and still couldn't find a way. I first have to use the firestick to turn tv on, then turn on the soundbar. Not a fan of the tiny buttons, they could be larger as there's very few buttons. Manual isn't super helpful. It was a sale price and the sound was great quality, so it's fine. Again, hate 2 remotes. Also I don't use a few of the sound options and wish I could delete them off the options.

      Hello MaplewoodShop17,

      We appreciate you taking a moment to review the Samsung HW-C450 Soundbar.

      By default, Samsung TV remotes should be able to control Samsung soundbars. If it isn't working, be sure the soundbar is powered on, and then press and hold the WOOFER button up until "ON - TV REMOTE" appears on the display (about 5 seconds). Next, you'll need to choose to connect with an optical cable.

      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.

    Insane sound quality, just the subwoofer is enough bass to feel it throughout my room. I use it in an open basement and even on volume 15-20 and sitting about 15-20 feet from it, it sounds like I'm at the theaters. I would highly recommend this combo, especially if it's on sale. For reference, I have a 75" Samsung QLED tv.

    I bought this for each of my three children for Christmas after reading many good reviews. My oldest son said the system was easily hooked up. He was thrilled with its sound! I may want one next year!

    Super sound quality - love that it is Blue Tooth connected. Had to find a connection video as it was a little tricky to pair the TV with the soundbar and subwoofer. Not a problem though.
