Samsung - HW-Q65T 7.1ch Soundbar with Dolby 5.1 / DTS Virtual:X - Black

Great sound and fills the whole family room. Great for sports or even when the kids are watching Disney programs.

I decided it was time to upgrade our 8-9 year old Sony Blu-ray Home Theater system (BDV-E280). I recently upgraded to a 75 inch TCL 6 series. At first I was tempted to keep the Sony, but I opted for a modern/wireless sound system instead. In hindsight now I’m extremely happy I made this decision. This set was discounted from $499 down to $279 with the pre-Black Friday sale. The reviews worsened my indecisiveness due to the fact that several people complained about the bass levels. However, please don’t let that stop you from purchasing! This system is amazing honestly. It’s loud, the bass is PLENTY for the movie theater experience. The rear surround speakers fill the room which completes the experiment. This system sounds really really good. I’m impressed. We’ll worth the price. Super easy to set up as well.

You get a lot out of this product! It is pretty to look at. Set up was very easy*. It puts out a pretty immersive sound and it plays very loud without dropout or distortion. The rear speakers were easy to set up and are wall mountable and also put out an impressive level of sound and fidelity for their size. The powered sub has great range and the sound is clean. You can increase the volume level independent from the main audio, but you won't have to. It too, is wireless and can be placed where it is conducive to your decorum. The soundbar with its upward firing speakers does a good job of really filling the room with clean, separated sound and its form factor allow it to go nicely with your existing Samsung TV* thanks to its textured, metallic grill finish. The remote is simple to use and offers all the controls to fine tune the set up and select options.* There is actually a display on the soundbar that scrolls across info. Now the bad...? The rear channel speaker wires are flimsy. Like, you'll feel like they will break if you bend them too many times. They are a very small gauge which limits how much you can push through them and since they have their own proprietary connections, you'd have to modify them to use your own thicker wires. They are also not very long so unless you plan on setting up in a tiny space, you'll have to get creative. Beyond that small gripe, it is an excellent system and worth the money. *= If you have a current-gen Samasung UHD TV, the integration of the soundbar is seemless when hooked up to the HDMI-ARC. Once you've connected the Soundbar via HDMI-ARC, it will automatically switch your inputs to the selected device and play its audio and also setup the TV to output sound through the soundbar. You also will not need the soundbar's remote as most of the controls can be selected through the TV's remote/menu, including sound modes, sound fields, etc. When you raise or lower the volume with the TV remote, the TV displays shows the number and the soundbar's display shows either a "+" or "-". Also, when you turn off your TV the soundbar also powers off: "Bye". The soundbar fits nicely between the legs of the 65" UHD TV to further reduce clutter and improve the cleanliness of the look.
