    The system sounds great for how small it is, even with our vaulted ceilings. We had some trouble connecting the soundbar via bluetooth (could be an issue with our Frame TV?). Used HDMI instead.

    I purchased this soundbar and subwoofer, along with the SWA-9500S rear speakers, to mate with my Samsung 75” 4K TV. This has taken movies to an entirely new level. Highly recommended!

    Marginally better than TV speakers

    The sound bar is very sleek and fits and nice with a minimalist look. However, the speakers are quite small and in a large room it’s hardly better than the TV speaker itself. Unfortunately I’m no longer able to return it due to timing otherwise I would’ve returned it.

    The speaker quality is incredible! I’ve never heard this kind of sound for a speaker/televison. The sleek design makes it appear to be part of the tv.
