    Great product for price. Do not expect speakers to be loud as they are rears for surround sound. Great sound, they really bring out the true theatre experience when used with a soundbar that has Dolby Atmos

    Pretty good sound system. Just using it for a bedroom so it really puts out the sound and fills the room. If I was using it for a living room I would probably get the next model up but for what I want it for it’s perfect for now.

    We use this in a small TV room and it fill the room completely! sometimes there is a little glitch where the input changes from Aux (my TV) to HDMI (my Roku) but i'm sure that'll change when we update our TV.

    If you buy the samsung sound bar 2.1 or 3.1 , this little speaker is a must. this so called wireless speakers will allow you to hear the background effect from the movies ( steps , explosions ,etc) , buy it if you get it for the right price and not the retail price.

    These speakers do the trick. The rear speakers are not the loudest, but they do definitely enhance the sound and it is nice to watch big shows, like Game of Thrones with the volume up and hear all the different things happening in the background.

    Linked them with my HW-T550 soundbar and QLED TV. Placed them about 8 ft behind where we sit and the sound is clear but they must be set to 6 volume setting which is max. I read other reviews where they stated that they were not audible enough. Mine are fine balance for surround sound effect. You don't want them too loud then they will drown out the soundbar and base unit.

    Easy to set up, tv arc controls it all and I don't have to use the remote it came with. It was what my sound bar was missing. Would have gave it another star but it lacks that big bass punch. I wish I could turn up the sub a little more but it only goes so high.

    Nice quality but not for me. The volume was not loud as I read on the reviews. Might be my Soundbar, overall the product quality is good and adds that surround sound you are looking for but don't expect much.

    Don't forget your rear loudpeakers when you hook up a Samsung soundbar. These aren't "true" wireless, but the single cable is fairly easy to run in the back end of the room. These speakers don't make themselves known in a big way, but they fill out and complete the sound range in a way that's essential. Took them for a test drive with a 5.1 DTS Surround blu-ray and they perform admirably.

    Set up was easy and initially felt sound is very low but after pairing, you have to set the rare speakers to ON and you can also set the volume level. By the way, it’s wireless to woofer and sound bar, but a thin wire runs for the router and the 2 rear speakers

    8500S Rear Speakers Compatibility

    The SWA-8500S Rear Speaker kit IS compatible with the Soundbar R650 from Samsung...Samsung’s website is the place to go for up to date compatibility...Many of these reviews say otherwise due to Best Buy’s information which is not the most current...I bought the rear speaker kit for the R650 Soundbar and have had no issues. Be patient and follow the directions.

    I purchased these speakers about two months after purchasing the Samsung n650 sound bar and woofer. The speakers are small but add enough background sound to make the den have a nice surround sound experience. Reccomend for a smaller room.
