Good Sound Bar!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fantastic product. I would recommend getting a soundbar with a subwoofer though. It drastically changed the quality of what you listen to.

Numbers on volume
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Do not like the fact there are no numbers in the volume bar & was going to take it back but was not provided with the customer service experience I expected by being a BB customer for so long. Do your research before you buy.

Reasonable price but not great quality
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had to return this because the sound didn't match my expectations.

Posted .Hello Mars,
We appreciate you taking a few moments to review the Samsung HW-S50B Soundbar.
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".

Its either too loud or too quiet
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This sound bar is extremely disappointing. The volume control is terrible—it’s either way too loud or far too quiet, with no comfortable middle range. Even worse, when using the HDMI ARC setup, the audio sounds muffled and flat. Definitely not worth the money.

Nice soundbar
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got my parents a new soundbar cause the one we had was losing the bass very often. We are really enjoying it so far.

Good for only hearing voices on your tv
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you are looking for a soundbar strictly that will elevate your tv viewing with hearing voices, this will satisfy that need. Make sure it is plugged in with the HDMI cable in order to achieve that. However, any other uses for a soundbar like streaming music from your phone, it does a horrible job. Any Bluetooth sound through the speaker is such poor quality.

If you want further bass, you can add the SWA-W510 Subwoofer designed to complement the S-Series soundbars.
Upgrade to surround sound by adding SWA-9200S Wireless Rear Speaker Kit to your soundbar. Our wireless surround package delivers 360° audio without the need to have wires around your living room. Offering a more cinematic experience with fewer messy wires.
