I'm very impressed with this. I don't have any complaints regarding sound nor connection.
Watching anything with this system plugged in is a game changer. Ended up rewatching some movies just because of it.

After 11 years of owning my Bose solo soundbar.. yeah 11 years, it finally went. It lasted me so long so it was finally time to get a new sound system. Ended up doing a lot of research online which probably took me at most 1 hour when I ran into this beautiful system. Sat there, got my car keys and drove out to the Best Buy that had it in stock and best decision ever made to purchase.
Real easy to set up, paired up with my Samsung tv and setting up the pass through with my PS5.. and boy let me tell you… it feels like my entire living room shakes and the beautiful sound that comes out from behind with the rear speakers be it an action packed movie, or explosive gaming or even the realistic feeling of being in a horror movie with the sounds practically in your ears! The most I pushed up the volume was at 40% and sheesh it blasts. My 2 dogs sometimes looks around confused at the sound all about them. I leave my volume at about 20-25% and that’s more than enough
Best purchase ever, quality is amazing. I am one happy buyer for sure!

I'm not disappointed with the purchase even I wouldn't mind paying less but I love the rumbling bass and it's pretty loud, I chose this over the hw-q990f because of the bass.

The sun quality and this technologies is awesome for having just a sound bar and two rear speakers, along with the subwoofer, it gives you that cinema experience when watching a movie and even better when watching sports

I don’t know what else to say other than this system is the best I’ve ever used, and I’ve had a lot of TVs and sound systems through the years, including those with a separate amplifier. My friends and family can’t get over how great it sounds. I have it paired with a Samsung S90 C, 77 inch OLED. Don’t think twice if you’re willing to spend the money - it’s worth it!

PS5 games and movies sound great!!! Sound bar is freaking awesome!! Rear speakers are solid too. Base could probably have some improvements when compared to Sonos, but the soundbar blows the Sonos Arc out the water. Also, the Smart Thing Apps for this is outstanding!! This system has so many additional and well thought out features when using the app. Samsung really did knock it out the park when it comes to those additional features and the app looks very clean. The three 2.1 HDMI ports on the sound bar provides you with convenience and flexibility. Also, if you have a movie collection, the fact that this supports many more audio formats than Sonos and Bose is a big plus as others have pointed out. BTW, I was trying to decided if I was going to keep this system or go with the Sonos Arc, Base Gen 3 , along with (2) Era 300s. Guess what went back to the store??? It was too hard to ignore the incredible value you were getting with this Samsung setup and did I mention it sounds AMAZING?!!
Ease of Setup = A+
Sound Bar = A
Rear Speakers = B+
Base Module = B-
Smart things A and additional features = A+++

Brand response from Samsung

Hello JReview,
Thank you for sharing your positive experience with the HW-Q990D Soundbar! Its impressive configuration of 11 front-facing speakers, 1 subwoofer, and 4 up-firing channels ensures a captivating audio experience that envelops you from all directions. Whether it’s music, movies, or gaming, this soundbar delivers bold, multi-channel sound that truly immerses you.
And the inclusion of a rear speaker kit means your home theater setup is complete right out of the box. No need to hunt for additional components—it’s all there!
Now, let’s talk about the intriguing Private Rear Sound feature. This clever addition allows you to enjoy your favorite shows and movies discreetly, especially during late-night viewing. By deactivating the front-firing speakers and utilizing only the rear speakers, you can immerse yourself in the content without disturbing others nearby. It’s a thoughtful feature that enhances your overall entertainment experience.
There are two adjustments that can be made to maximize bass from the soundbar and subwoofer: 1. Using the WOOFER button on the remote, you can adjust the level between -6 to +6. To set the subwoofer volume level to 0, press the button in.
2. Adjust the bass control by pressing the TONE CONTROL button on the remote control, then select BASS to increase the level. You can adjust the volume between -6 to +6 by using the Up/Down buttons.
For precise audio adjustments, you can use the 7-band frequency equalizer to optimize the sound for your room acoustics.
If there’s anything we can help with, please call is at 1-800-SAMSUNG (Ask for Soundbars), 8 AM – 12 AM EST, 7 days a week. Live Chat with an agent as well as manuals, software, and warranty info can be found at the ‘support’ link on our Samsung website.

I previously bought a lower model sound bar. The difference is incredible! I would never buy a lower model sound bar ever again! This model is the BEST!!! The sound is incredible! Truly a high quality sound system! The rear speakers are wireless! Simple and easy to install! The subwoofer has amazing deep bass sound!!! It makes my bedroom sound like my living room $10k home theater sound system!

This Samsung soundbar when used with a Samsung TV's Q-Symphony settings provides a sound experience VERY close to the experience with a separate amplifier and wired speaker connections! I absolutely love it!!

I thought this would sound like just any other soundbar given it is only a soundbar but this completely changed the sound in my living room. Amazing bass/highs/lows and even surround sound. I didn’t have space to get a 5 or 7 seperate speaker system and this almost accomplishes that with just 2 physical surround speakers.
I also love that you simply need to connect the power for each speaker and they instantly connect and start working.

I am very pleased with this soundbar and its satellite speakers. I will admit I was initial concerned about how this soundbar would interface with my Sony TV, but that concern was without reason. I had no problem connecting it with the TV. I also was very happy that it connected well with my Alexa as well.
I admit that since I am not using a Samsung, I might be losing some of the great interfaces the two products will have, I find that the once I got the app for this soundboard I had no problem adjusting the settings of the soundbar to match what I wanted.
It clearly has no problem with Dolby Atmos and I love how the soundbar will even tell me when it is using Atmos. It also works very well with my other devices and so it makes an amazing speaker for my iPhone and Amazon Echo when playing music.
I looked at a lot of reviews for soundbars and there was a pretty clear consensus that this set was one of the best. So while it is a tad pricey, it lives up to its value and reputation.

The whole setup took less than five minutes, with everything paring to my tv, which is a Sony, very easily. I have vaulted ceilings in my living room but this sound system from Samsung does not struggle at all to fill the space! I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a solid sound system which includes Dolby atmos.

I bought this as a gift for my brother. He was blown away by the quality of the surround sound system. The advances in this technology are remarkable. And it was definitely worth the investment and taking advantage of the financing plan for it. My brother found it easy to set up with his existing TV and it's been a big net gain for him.

This is hands-down, the best all-in-one sound system from any of the big manufacturers. I love the sound of it and it’s incredibly powerful. I have the other flagship sound systems from LG and Sony and the Samsung is the absolute best.!

Using Samsung's Q-Symphony with both the TV speakers and soundbar speakers active is a pleasure to experience. The sound is immersive and feels balanced. The rear sound seems just enough and not so much to notice the speakers as coming from a separate source. The bass also blends in and isn't bloated or overbearing.
