    After spending a month watching reviews on sound bars this is the one I picked. Very happy with the quality of material and ease of setup. Now for the part that counts, sound. The high range I give a A+.. The mid range I give a C .. For Bass sound where is it ? The Bass for what little it has is just muted and not clear. The phone app needs more options. Overall I give this system a C, Not very happy with it.

      Hello Terry,

      We appreciate you taking a moment to review the Samsung HW-Q990D Soundbar.

      You can manually optimize your audio experience by pressing the SOUND CONTROL button (which looks like a gear), you can set the audio function such as Auto EQ, Spacefit sound, AVA, Voice Enhance mode, Night mode, Sync, Surround speaker mode, Virtual. The desired item can be adjusted using the Up/Down buttons.

      Alternatively, you can 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.

      You can try quickly optimizing the audio by pressing the SOUND MODE button on your remote, and then select the desired sound effect by choosing STANDARD, SURROUND SOUND, GAME, or ADAPTIVE SOUND.

      To control the volume of each speaker, press the CH LEVEL button on the provided remote. Then select CENTER LEVEL, SIDE LEVEL, WIDE LEVEL, FRONT TOP LEVEL, REAR LEVEL, or REAR TOP LEVEL. Once you find the channel you are looking for, adjust the volume between -6 to +6 by using the Up/Down buttons.

      There are multiple ways to control the bass levels for your new Soundbar.

      1) Using the WOOFER button on the provided Soundbar remote. Use the woofer button by pushing forward or pulling backward on the button itself to adjust the bass levels between -12 or -6/+6. If you want to reset the bass to 0 then push the button in.
      2) When you press the TONE CONTROL button, you can adjust the treble or bass levels between -6/+6.

      Within the SmartThings app under Advanced settings, you can easily activate the Bass Boost feature to add more of a punch to whatever you are watching or listening to.

      I hope these tips help you enjoy your new product.

      You can always contact us for further help at 1-800-SAMSUNG (Ask for Soundbars), 8 AM – 12 AM EST, 7 days a week. Our Live Chat agents are also available by clicking on the ‘Support’ link on our website.

    I’ve had a standard 5.1 surround system but man. This blows that away. I’m so impressed. I got it on sale for $1000 but would’ve paid $1500 it’s that good.

    I got this for watching Dune Part 2 and that alone was well worth the money, but I was blown away by the immersion this offers for gaming; walking around the world of Horizon Zero Dawn and hearing a Tallneck in the distance behind you is SO cool!! Ponyo was also a pleasant surprise for having not known how much surround sound there is in that movie! Still expensive, but overall well worth it!

    Item is heavy, bar is 17#. Install was simple using the app but one rear speaker did not initially pair so I had to web search how to and it connected with no issue. Instructions could/should be better. Sound quality is incredible in comparison to my Platin Milan 5.1. Store associate who assisted my purchase was fantastic in saving me an additional $300 by signing up for store member program so out of the store it was $1300 as it was on sale too.
