    Good for a bedroom or small living room. I returned these and the soundbar and went with a full on surround system with receiver and tower speakers and 12 inch sub. It was more money and a time consuming hookup but worth it in my opinion. These speakers also had an annoying static sound when there is nothing playing, can barely hear it but enough to get on your nerves if you are an audiophile.

  • Great compliment to my sound bar

    These paired very well with the Samsung sound bar and it was very easy to set up. They are small so there is not a lot of sound out of them so I feel they are better for a smaller room. I added two larger speakers with them due to the size of the room.

      R2D2:

      Thank you for purchasing the Samsung Wireless SWA-8500S Rear Wireless Speaker Kit. I am sorry to hear that you did not experience the full potential of the surround sound system.

      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 holing 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.

    This sound bar set sounds amazing. The price was great, and I was expecting a cheaper sound for the price, to throw onto a spare TV set up I have. I was pleasantly suprised when the quality was as good as my more expensive set. Definitely a great purchase.

    Paired it with Q6R sound bar. Relatively easy pairing process. They can seem to be somewhat quiet at first and with some TV content, but still volume wise, I think they pair very well with Q6R sound bar and brings significant improvement to the surround performance.
