Best surround speaker system for the price!

Very good speaker setup. Amazingly deep bass and surround sound. Setup instructions were less than desirable but it’s not too difficult to figure it out.
NOTE for rear speakers! Make sure you have ‘wire to clamp’ connection! There’s a clear layer in plastic wire insulation which is difficult to see at first. The metal wire must contact the clamp otherwise ……no sound from rears.

The Samsung HW-Q850D is a premium powerful soundbar that delivers a truly immersive audio experience, especially for those who have a newer Samsung TV and provides extra immersion (Q-Symphony) and dynamic sound. I own an LG TV from 2018, so I was not able to take advantage of those features, but with that being said, I am truly impressed with this system. Featuring wireless Dolby Atmos technologies, this soundbar creates a three-dimensional soundstage that brings movies, music, and games to life all without cables running across your room.
One of my favorite features of the HW-Q850D is its impressive audio performance. With 7.1.2 channels and a total power output of 480 watts, this soundbar delivers clear, detailed sound with deep, impactful bass. Whether you're watching a movie, gaming, or listening to music, the HW-Q850T provides an immersive listening experience that truly enhances the overall entertainment experience and the Game Mode Pro really make my gaming sessions pop in the audio department.
Another highlight of the HW-Q850T is its design. The soundbar itself is sleek and modern, with a minimalist design that will add a touch of class to your living room. The wireless subwoofer is also easy to place in an out of the way spot in your room, and the rear wireless speakers are connected to wires but only to a box that connects wirelessly to the soundbar rounding out the system.
In terms of connectivity, the HW-Q850T has you covered. It features Bluetooth connectivity, allowing you to wirelessly stream music from your smartphone or tablet. It also has HDMI input and output ports, as well as an optical input, giving you plenty of options for connecting your audio sources and also works with Google, Alexa and Bixby.
Overall, the Samsung Q-symphony HW-850D is a premium soundbar that delivers exceptional audio performance and seamless integration with Samsung QLED TVs, but not leaving behind other brands as well. I really look forward to watching movies and shows more than ever now and whether you're a movie buff, a gamer, or a music lover, this soundbar will take your home entertainment experience to the next level and you can’t go wrong with a system such as this.

Very easy to set up. Connects very easy. Sound quality is good, rear speakers are nice feature, and more for the distance sounds such as rain, doors shutting, and sound efx. Not the best for overall sound quality with treble/mid/bass(rear speakers) good system. I have a 55inch TV, and appproximatley 12 feet away.

This model goes out of stock fast, so if you get the chance, buy it! I was lucky to find one, this was the best purchase ever. The subwoofer will make your house shake, no joke. When paired up with a samsung tv the sound is incredible. With this system YOU WILL GET MORE THAN WHAT YOU PAID FOR!

I am loving this sound system. The Q-Symphony pairs perfectly with the TV. The connectivity is reliable and consistent. The full, balanced sound quality of soundbar is exceptional. The surround sound with the woofer, rears and soundbar deliver immersive sound throughout the room.

Average. Previous sound bar had ability to run surround sound test to get best balance for the room and this does not. Also sound volume control for rear speakers is poor and range of sound volume only 1 to 6. Doesn't have ability to get very loud. Weak performance.
We appreciate you taking a moment to review the HW-Q850D Soundbar.
Pressing the SOUND CONTROL button on your remote allows you to select the desired sound effect. You can select Spacefit sound, AVA, Voice Enhance mode, Night mode, Sync, Surround speaker mode, and Virtual. The desired item can be adjusted using the Up/Down buttons.
Alternatively, with the sound mode set to standard, 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.
By pressing the SOUND MODE button on your remote, and then selecting the desired sound effect by choosing STANDARD, SURROUND SOUND, GAME PRO, or ADAPTIVE SOUND.
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.
With SpaceFit Sound Pro you can get room-filling sound calibrated to your space, with a soundbar that analyzes your environment and automatically optimizes the audio accordingly for an accurate and clear sound. Please make sure that the Soundbars mic is on.

Have tried 8 diff 5.1 and 2.1 systems
After running 13 different configurations, still no sound from my Toshiba fire tv
First one that cannot solve
They said to use PCM bah
Others have also said they could not get HDMI ARC working with this Samsung soundbar also
Reminds me of a Sony, has a special box to connect the surround speakers together
so you need 2 AC outlets in the back of the room to plug the LFE and the surround control box?
in addition, its using + - red black speaker wires pinch terminals like old school bookshelf speakers lol
have it working with optical SPDIF TOSLINK but not the same
will be returning by Jan holiday return period

Your device is unable to play the input signal. Change the TV’s audio output to PCM or Dolby Digital. (For a Samsung TV: Home → Settings → Sound → Expert Settings → Digital Output Audio Format).
If your device is connected, but you are not hearing any sound, first make sure that the Mute function is off, and that the volume is not set to minimum.
You will also want to verify that your TV is set to use external speakers & that your soundbar is set to the correct source.
