These work seamlessly with the SW800 Q-series soundbar, the Bluetooth connection is simple and robust, there is no lag on the sound. If you have the outlets available for them they are perfect.

Overall I am happy with these speakers. The only downside is finding speakers stands that will hide the cords because the outlet part of the chord will not go thru a tube type stand.

Great addition to my Samsung 700 series sound bar and sub woofer. They gave the system a whole new dimension and it truly is like sitting in a theater.

Excellent. Need to be place in the correct position and it sounds like you are in the theater. For example background noise like music is actually now in background not taking over the foreground

I bought these as an addition to Samsung A900. They work well and complete the surround system. Not necessary needed but great if you can afford it. Makes the movies sound ever better.

When we started looking for speakers to help us hear the TV better I had this idea of just putting a speaker or two at the back of the living room, maybe blue-tooth connected to the TV speaker. We sit about 18 feet away and have to deal with the washer etc. The sound bar gave us clearer speech and let us lower the volume. Our daughter sits about 8 feet away at the front of the room and complains about the volume we need at the back of the room.
The Rear speaker kit does not provide constant TV sound as we were originally hoping. But the are really cool when watching things like the Disney channel. When a show starts and the stars or whatever fly towards the front of the screen the sound appears to continues through the room and out the rear window.
It depends on how much TV you watch. They make the system close as we will get to true movie theater surround sound. So for some of our DVD's and Netflix the speakers can make a difference. To watch regular programming they make very little difference and I have found no other way to have them play louder to match the volume you get sitting close to the front speakers.
Thank you for purchasing the SWA-9500S and for sharing your user experience with this Samsung rear speaker kit. By design, the surround speakers are supposed to simulate sounds happening behind the viewer. Therefore, most of the time the surround channels are only used for ambient sounds, which are naturally lower in volume.
However, there are a few settings you can change to adjust the surround effect to your preference:
1) Make sure that the source (e.g. TV output) is sending surround channels to the Soundbar. If the source is not capable of surround, then set the Surround mode to OFF on the Soundbar by pressing the Surround button on the remote. 2) If the source has surround channels, select the desired Sound Mode from the Soundbar remote. 3) Turn off Dynamic Range Control. This is done by pressing and holding the Sound Mode button while the Soundbar is in standby mode. Depending on your soundbar model, you may or may not have DRC. 4) Increase the volume level of the surround speakers using the Sound Control button on the Soundbar remote control. Press the Sound Control button on the soundbar remote (looks like a gear), then select REAR LEVEL and use the Up/Down buttons to adjust the volume within a -6 to +6 range.
I hope these tips help to enhance your audio enjoyment.
