Easy Set Up
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Set up was a breeze with the Samsung R650. Sound is what I had expected at this price point and overall I’m happy with this purchase. Connection has been stable and audio is synced.

Quality surround sound
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased this system to replace an older Vizio system. I liked the flexibility of being able to just purchase the sound bar by itself but to add wireless surround sound speakers. You still need an electric outlet for the rear speakers and wires to run from the main rear unit to the 2 rear speakers, but there is no need to run wires from the front of the room to the back of the room.

see if the SWA9000s are compatible
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I just wish they were a little louder. Not every piece of media you will enjoy will have the highest quality nor should have to upsetting the neighbors to enjoy sound; but sadly this is what you’ll have to do to enjoy these rear speakers. I did not have the opportunity to listen to the SWA9000S but if it was compatible with my N550 (they might be after doing some research) I would have chosen those for the higher output.. I recommend because if I disliked them that much I would have returned it. I just feel like I’m missing out by not getting something newer or better

Posted .Donjuan:
Thank you for purchasing the Samsung Wireless Rear Loud Speakers. I am sorry to hear that you did not experience the full potential of the surround sound system.
Please know that 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 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. Choices are STANDARD, MUSIC, CLEAR VOICE, SPORTS, or MOVIE.
3. Turn off Dynamic Range Control. This is done by pressing and holing the Sound Mode button while the Soundbar is in standby mode.
4. Increase the volume level of the surround speakers using the Sound Control button on the Soundbar remote control.
I hope these tips help to enhance your audio enjoyment.

Beautiful surround sound!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Super easy hardware setup! A little tricky learning how to pair it with my bluetooth soundbar, but a quick youtube tutorial and doing my best to follow the instructions did the trick. The sound is wonderful. I do feel a little sorry for my neighbors. Movies and Gaming are a whole new experience, and the audio is immersive.

Samsung Rear Speakers
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a must buy for only $100. Although it says wireless, you still have wires to connect. Already have bought 2 and had to buy another because there just to good to pass up. Provide perfect sound for what they are worth, great for watching movies or playing video games with an all surround sound.

Great product
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound great and easy to pair. Does have wires from base to speakers but easy to hide. Just wireless from main system in front to the rear speaker.
I would recommend this to a friend Good Speakers
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.good speakers for a smaller room- i dont have high ceilings in my lviing room but minus one star because I have only a year old higher end samsung sound bar and these are not compatible with it- I had to purchase a new sound bar for them to work (which is fine because I moved one sound bar to the bedroom)

Easy Setup, Works Great, Easy to use !
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought a 65' Samsung TV and decided to try out the soundbar and wireless rear speakers. They brought them right to my door, I unpacked them, plugged them in, and they worked great as soon as I turned on the power. A friend conmented that it was just like being in a movie theatre. Excellent volume for movies, Youtube videos and regular TV. Would buy them again.
