Customers are saying
Customers enjoy the sound quality of the wireless rear speakers, often forgetting they are there and mistaking sounds for real-life occurrences. The easy plug-and-play setup is also appreciated. However, some customers have concerns about the volume not being loud enough and compatibility issues with certain center speakers.

Amazing!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We never knew what we were missing out on by not having surround sound. After purchasing the rear speakers we are still in awe by them. We actually turn and look sometimes because the sound is so clear and seems right there. We have watched several sound tests on youtube and we are still amazed at their quality.

They need their own volume control
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So they work.. and sound ok for the money... but only when the whole system volume is turned WAY UP. These things need their own volume control on them. They are way to quiet and you barely notice them except in quiet scenes where the is surround sound effects. It's really hard to tell they are there otherwise unless you're sitting 6 inches from them.

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.

Great speakers
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the money, these speakers are a welcomed addition to my Samsung HW-MS650/ZA sound bar. Great sound!! I have read some negative reviews, too loud, too soft. People are not reading the instructions especially those that came with your Samsung sound bar.

Works like a charm.

Love the sound....
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got these to add to my 82in Q80 TV and HK N850 Soundbar....no regrets....it did take some time to pair up which is the reason for the 4 star. Overall, Awesome Sound especially when you watch/listen to content that has Dolby Atmos and even Dolby 5.1. Here's a tip...If you have the same setup as I do...in Smart Things app look for the Harmon Kardon logo specific for Samsung soundbars....don't try to pair in the generic AV soundbar search.

Quick and easy integration, great background sound
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this to pair with my Samsung sound bar. It was easy to wirelessly connect to the bar and now I have surround sound again. I am a big fan of Samsung products and this is no exception. One small remote control that came with the TV controls it all.

Thank you for purchasing the Samsung SWA-9000S Wireless Rear Loud Speakers.
Once this kit is connected to a compatible Samsung soundbar, the soundbar remote is then used to control the volume level of the rear kit. For example, if you are connected to the Samsung Harman Kardon HW-Q80R, you would press the Sound Control button on the Q80R 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.
Also, 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. If the source has surround channels, select the desired Sound Mode from the Soundbar remote.
You might want to try turning 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.

Rear speakers to complement the Q70T sound bar
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall Sound quality is good for mini-rear speakers. Also paring was easy

Great addition
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent addition to my Q80R soundbar. I would give them a 5 star but you need to adjust the sound to get the most out of them. Raise the rear speakers to 6 and lower the front,center and sides. This will raise the rear overall and give a more immersive surround sound.

Great addition to my Samsung sound bar
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Paired right up!! One thing though is you will need your sound bar remote! I bought mine open box and I had to get the remote to hook them up. Give a nice surround sound.

Speak to Me Little One
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Last year I bought a Samsung Q80 TV and the matching Q80R Atmos Soundbar. I really wanted the Q90R Soundbar since it had the rear speakers but it was way more expensive and, according to user reviews, had rear speakers that were both weak in sound and hard to keep connected. Yet I still had a bad case of R.S.E. (rear speaker envy). After some research I found that Sammy makes a set of rear speakers that supposedly work with my Q80. When I saw them on sale recently for less than a Franklin (open box), I just had to have them. First, they were a bit tricky to get connected to the the Q80R but a helpful video on YouTube got me fixed up. As to the sound, meh, not much. The problem is that they really lack adequate volume. But from time to time, with 4k HD movies that have a great soundtrack, I'm able to hear the contributions they make to the overall soundscape. They do enhance the sound but a bit more volume would be greatly appreciated. Sammy knows about this problem but hasn't been forthcoming yet with a fix. All us R.S.E. folk are hopeful that a fix is in the works. Please, Sammy, come to our aid!

These speakers sync up to more sound bars then it'
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These speakers hook up to a lot more samsung soundbars than just what's on the list in the Box so do your research make sure you get a sound bar that these pair to but they're great they make a shade I have to string wires across the Room

Great
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great rear speakers, I love that they connect to my speaker bar wirelessly. My only concern was that the wire it comes with has proprietary connections on the amp side and the wire length was only 10 feet so the wires made it down the wall just fine but that’s it.

Better depth added to most Samsung Soundbars
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This kit adds the extra depth most soundbars are missing. It's great Samsung has this option available for most of their entry level systems and up. I highly recommend adding these to your setup for better immersion. Originally purchased for my HWMS650 Sound+ soundbar then used on the Q70T Atmos soundbar. I believe a handful of Samsung TV's can pair to these without a soundbar.

Nice rear speakers
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a surround speaker and not a front speaker, so don’t expect it to be extremely loud, surround speakers are mainly for sound effects and should not always produce sound. I have this mounted about a foot from listening position and it is loud enough for me.
