A must! These really changed the sound and i can not go back to not having them. The Atmos is not great, but having rear speakers alone is. No box to plug these into, just 2 power cords. Clean and easy to sync up.
I got these at open box price so to me they are well worth it!

Bought these to compliment to Q700A system. So far it's been awesome to use. THe only wires you need to attach are power cables. As long as you have outlets nearby, it makes wiring nice and hidden. They're a bit on the short side, so have an extension cord ready just in case. And since it's a bluetooth connection no need to worry about speaker cables. Pairing with the bluetooth is also really easy. I had one issue when I unplugged one speaker and it took me a couple tries to get the one paired. Not sure what I did since I tried a couple things and it finally worked. Soundwise it's been great i've been tinkering with position. So far I think what works for me is pointing the speakers closer to each other, rather than towards the listeners. This seems to have best sound. Overall, i'm loving it.

This true dolby atmos setup is awesome. Due to our setup I had to put them on the floor next to the couch (aesthetic reasons) but they are still AWESOME. My wife is often surprised to hear a helicopter literally sound like it is coming from out the window and it is very good for the price.

Sounds awesome! I bought the Samsung HW-Q700A soundbar for my husband for Christmas to pair with the Samsung Q80A 75-inch TV that I surprised him with last year. We purchased these to pair with it. While we loved the soundbar and the clarity of the dialogue in movies and shows, he wanted the surround sound. Unfortunately, we do not have a spot to put the speakers because we have an open floor plan with a kitchenette behind the couch and we didn't want to place the speakers on stands. We upgraded to the JBL Bar 9.1 My preference would have been to keep the Samsung with these speakers just because the dialogue was so clear while watching movies but we would have to give up on the superior surround sound of the JBL. Plus, I'm a Samsung junkie and it bothers me not to have all electronics the same brand. If you have space to put the Samsung side speakers when adding to the soundbar, I would recommend the Samsung. We went with the JBL due to the convenience factor and the detachable side speakers for the Dolby Atmos benefit.

Purchased these to go with the Samsung sound bar. Paired up easily and sound great. Wireless connection to the subwoofer but they need to be plugged into power, which wasn't a problem. Didn't have to run speaker wires which was nice. Provide real surround sound and not some "simulated" surround.

Unfortunately my Soundbar System was not compatible. This set of speakers only work with 2021 Samsung Soundbar models. I can't give these speakers a bad rating because of the compatibility issues. Hopefully Samsung will roll out an update that will allow these to be paired with my 2020 model. I will repurchase if an update comes out.

A good set of speakers to add to your samsung sound bar. However the atmos up firing speaker on them dont do a good enough job to justify the price. This does beat having side speakers on the soundbar to mimic the other channels.

Really happy with these speakers, I got them at a great price as open box item. Works with my Samsung Q7CB soundbar system 100%. These rear speakers have volume adjustment for rear channels and rear atmos channels, you can boost the volume in settings. This produces and supports up to 7.1 or 5.1.2 format with combined system output for full surround. Best and max volume wattage from rears for music listening is with "adaptive sound" mode with rear volume all the way up.

Got these to pair with my HW-S61D soundbar. Unfortunately they will not pair with the soundbar which is a shame because they are much better speaker than the SWA-9200S. These are true Dolby Atmos speakers with an upfiring speaker which the SWA-9200S does not have. A real bummer since I got these for a good price open box in Excellent condition. Too bad Samsung doesn't have a more unified open use ecosystem for their wireless subwoofers and speakers.
