Entry level for improving soundscape. There are far better home theater options but they get expensive. However I do love this in the bedroom for some basic atmos support and a drastic improvement over tv speakers. Does not compare to a proper 7.2.1 system or a 5.2.1 set up, even a basic 2.1 stereo set up with proper bookshelf’s/floor standing speakers blows this out of the water in terms of quality. Recommended as basic upgrade to tv speakers, would work great for an apartment or bedroom where noise was a concern. For proper enthusiasts- do research into a proper system with an AVR.

Hi StephenB,
We appreciate you taking a few moments to review Samsung's HW-Q850D Soundbar.
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.
By pressing the CH LEVEL button, you can adjust the volume of the available channels. Each time you press the CH LEVEL button it will switch to a different channel such as Center, Front Top, or Rear Level. After selecting the channel you wish to adjust, use the UP/DOWN buttons on the provided Soundbar remote to adjust the volume between -6 to +6.
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.
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 for precise audio adjustments. 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.

I had a LG soundbar and just wasn't happy. I could never get the middle (voices) to be clear. This soundbar is leaps and bounds better than the LG I had. I like how iy incorporates my TV speakers as well. Very happy with this soundbar.

Connecting this soundbar to my Samsung TV was super easy. The sound is really impressive, and Q-Symphony makes movies and music sound amazing. I'm really happy with the sound quality—and the price was great too.

The sound bar is good(but massive), however the rear speakers and subwoofer are essentially useless. Even with their volume adjusted in the settings to be at their highest, you have to put your ear up to the speakers to even be able to they’re on.

This system works perfectly for my family room size and shape, which relatively narrow.
The rear speakers are wired to a powered rear controller box that I was not expecting but it was an easy set up. I am very happy with the total sound quality and effects from the system.

Love this. Some people had issues with setting it up, but for me it was quick and easy! The set up instructions that come with the system are not great, but going online and downloading the manual worked out great. Talks to my tv (Samsumg) and 4K Blue Ray player (Sony) with no issues. I absolutely love this sytem. It's perfect for my cozy living room.

Holy cow. My living room sounds like a movie theater now. My Samsung surround sound that I bought that was advised for me to buy with the Samsung TV. Was a great choice. Thank you
