    If you’re looking for a low profile, low price point all-in-one 5.1 surround sound bar, this is it! Such a great find for my wife and I!

    No bass at all. The over all sound wasn't even louder then the tv speakers like you'd think it would be. Other than it just sounding slightly different from the tv speakers, I didn't notice or hear any improvement or upgraded qualities of any kind. Definitely not worth the price or even buying at all seeing as it didn't even really do anything.

      JosephG,

      I’m sorry to hear that you’re dissatisfied with the performance of your HW-S50B soundbar.

      Here are some tips to optimize your audio experience, please try the various sound modes this model offers. Press the SOUND MODE button on your remote, and then select your desired sound effect: DTS VIRTUAL:X, STANDARD, MUSIC, or ADAPTIVE.

      When you press the CH LEVEL button on the remote, you can adjust the volume of the CENTER speaker using the UP/DOWN buttons between -6 to +6. If the Rear Speakers (sold separately) are connected, the setting “Rear Level” is supported.

      You can further adjust TREBLE and BASS via the TONE CONTROL button using the UP/DOWN buttons on the remote between -6 to +6.

      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. (Make sure the Sound mode is set to "Standard".

      I hope this tip helps improve your sound experience. Should you need further assistance with features, functions, settings, or adjustments, please contact Samsung Customer Support 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.

    Good but not great! I chose the better sounding 5.0 S60B! To me it was worth the few bucks extra for the added sound quality. But I am sure the 3.0 S50B would be fine for some applications.
