    Great sound system. Bought an open box which was practically brand new. Just bought a samsung tv and its very convenient I can use my tv controller as well to control the soundbar. If possible always try to get married/matching devices that way you get full potential out of you products! The sound bar does get pretty loud. It comes with wall mount brackets and an optical cable. I purchased a 10 foot optical since my wires were going to be hidden, the optical they give is short. Audio is crisp, bass is pretty good, and I love the rear speakers. Just remember you can change the volume of the rear speakers. Search up samsung rear speaker volume on youtube. For a perfect balanced sound most people reccomend +4 for rear speakers but personally i like it at +5. As far as the rear speakers go they are not fully wireless, not so much a big problem for me. For the price i’m paying I feel like this sound system is perfectly what I am looking for. If you happen to buy this on sale then I truly believe its worth the money. If you are planning on buying this at retail I suggest you might want to look at other options since at that price point there may be better options. Bass could be a little better and the system I “believe” is not a true 7.1. Regardless, I would definately recommend this product if it happens to be on sale.

    I have tried many different sound bars including a Sony that was priced for a lot more that I returned instantly, but this has to be the best one I’ve ever had. It even sounds better than my $800 Samsung sound bar that I have downstairs and is less fussy. The speakers are perfect for my living room upstairs and it was easy to install and it gets loud enough without having to turn it all the way up. The subwoofer is intense without shaking your walls or disturbing your neighbors so I can turn it all the way up. Music sounds incredible on this and voices crystal clear. If it goes on sale will definitely get another for my office.

    I decided it was time to upgrade our 8-9 year old Sony Blu-ray Home Theater system (BDV-E280). I recently upgraded to a 75 inch TCL 6 series. At first I was tempted to keep the Sony, but I opted for a modern/wireless sound system instead. In hindsight now I’m extremely happy I made this decision. This set was discounted from $499 down to $279 with the pre-Black Friday sale. The reviews worsened my indecisiveness due to the fact that several people complained about the bass levels. However, please don’t let that stop you from purchasing! This system is amazing honestly. It’s loud, the bass is PLENTY for the movie theater experience. The rear surround speakers fill the room which completes the experiment. This system sounds really really good. I’m impressed. We’ll worth the price. Super easy to set up as well.

    You get a lot out of this product! It is pretty to look at. Set up was very easy*. It puts out a pretty immersive sound and it plays very loud without dropout or distortion. The rear speakers were easy to set up and are wall mountable and also put out an impressive level of sound and fidelity for their size. The powered sub has great range and the sound is clean. You can increase the volume level independent from the main audio, but you won't have to. It too, is wireless and can be placed where it is conducive to your decorum. The soundbar with its upward firing speakers does a good job of really filling the room with clean, separated sound and its form factor allow it to go nicely with your existing Samsung TV* thanks to its textured, metallic grill finish. The remote is simple to use and offers all the controls to fine tune the set up and select options.* There is actually a display on the soundbar that scrolls across info. Now the bad...? The rear channel speaker wires are flimsy. Like, you'll feel like they will break if you bend them too many times. They are a very small gauge which limits how much you can push through them and since they have their own proprietary connections, you'd have to modify them to use your own thicker wires. They are also not very long so unless you plan on setting up in a tiny space, you'll have to get creative. Beyond that small gripe, it is an excellent system and worth the money. *= If you have a current-gen Samasung UHD TV, the integration of the soundbar is seemless when hooked up to the HDMI-ARC. Once you've connected the Soundbar via HDMI-ARC, it will automatically switch your inputs to the selected device and play its audio and also setup the TV to output sound through the soundbar. You also will not need the soundbar's remote as most of the controls can be selected through the TV's remote/menu, including sound modes, sound fields, etc. When you raise or lower the volume with the TV remote, the TV displays shows the number and the soundbar's display shows either a "+" or "-". Also, when you turn off your TV the soundbar also powers off: "Bye". The soundbar fits nicely between the legs of the 65" UHD TV to further reduce clutter and improve the cleanliness of the look.

    Sound is pretty nice, but not sure the price on this is right. For this price it should have WiFi with at least Chromecast. Sub puts out the right amount of bass for casual TV watching. Only thing is that I occasionally get sound cut outs using the HDMI Arc.

    Yeah, it's a good and loud sound as my wife loves it. Pretty easy to setup, there's a few wires attached but not all cluttered behind the tv. A little pricey but u get what you pay for.

    I've had a few Samsung soundbars over the past few years and while this one has more features and technology. it still has a few flaws that i will be talking about. First I will start by saying that this TV will bring out its full potential when paired with certain Samsung TVs. In a way, it is understandable since a lot of companies do that, but personally I just want a soundbar with all the features out of the box. By the way the soundbar system is a 5.1 channel, but if you want the Digital 7.1 audio you will have to find media compatible with it. Also Q-symphony is only compatible with the certain TVs i mentioned earlier. I will say the system also need a bit of sound tunning because out of the box does not sound that good. The back speakers are also kind of low for some reason. If you have a big living room, and place the back speakers kind of far, they are going to sound very quiet. Other than that there is not much to say about the sound bar. Samsung has always made their soundbars with good quality materials and this one is no different. In terms of the app it works about the same as any other samsung soundbar. I have honestly had bad experiences paring my soundbars to the Smart Things app with another soundbar so i did not even bother, since I mainly use the soundbar when im watching something on my TV. Here is a TL;DR - Great sound quality from the front speakers - Easy to navigate controller - Easy to set up, almost plug and play - Great looking back speaker receiver/amp almost looks like a modem - Great Features if paired with compatible TV/ Media - You get an HDMI input and one output - You also get an optical, and USB port - Sub-woofer is loud and crisp Cons - Back speakers are kind of low - The soundbar is somewhat heavy so planning a good mounting spot is necessary - You need certain TV for full features In conclusion if you have one of the TVs or is planning to buy one that is compatible with the soundbar, you are in luck. If you want a 5.1 or a true 7.1 I would look at some other options.

    I’ve always hated the sound from tvs as the new sets, that I love, have the speakers pointed away in the back. So I invested in this sound bar and boom, this is so awesome…wonderful sound with many different selections. Surround, Game…ect. Great system at a great price.
