- A: AnswerHi Aze, The HW-Q930C Soundbar supports updated software that the HW-Q930B does not. This includes Q-Symphony 3.0, if you pair the HW-Q930C Soundbar to a 2023 Q-Series TV, then your Q-Symphony will be improved overall by the AI processor within the TV. We have also updated our SpaceFit Sound Pro within the HW-Q930C Soundbar. This feature will offer a improved range in your audio experience. SpaceFit Sound Pro will automatically adjust and calibrate your audio for the room it is in. Adaptive Sound and Game Pro have both been improved in 2023 for the HW-Q930C Soundbar. Adaptive Sound will better optimize the sound to each object of screen even at low volume levels. Game Pro will not optimize your audio experience from your consoles or Samsung's Game Hub. Your FPS, Racing, Sports, Rhythm and Fighting games will sound better than before. ~Samsung Solutions

- A: AnswerHi there MartyF, The rear speakers having roughly a 32 foot maximum range to the Soundbar itself, you should be fine within 18 feet. Test the connection before hand, setup your Soundbar and rears where you want them, then play a movie. This will keep you from running in to issues after mounting them. Keep in mind that any electronic devices such as modems or routers can cause interference with your rear speakers. ~Samsung Solutions

- A: AnswerHi Waylon, The rear speakers will connect automatically to the Soundbar when everything is connect for power. You will not need Wi-Fi to be able to use the rear speakers. ~Samsung Solutions

- A: AnswerHi Jay, The HW-Q930C Soundbar is exclusively compatible with the included rear speakers and cannot add more to the Soundbar. ~Samsung Solutions
Answered by Samsung
- A: AnswerHi Jayme, Dolby Atmos content will be compatible with a Sony brand TV. Dolby Atmos does require a hardwire connection from the Soundbar to the TV using a HDMI cable if you are not using a Samsung TV. The wireless rear speakers and subwoofer will connect properly with the Soundbar wirelessly without issue. The feature that will be lost if not using a Samsung TV will be Dolby Atmos over Wi-Fi. Select 2022 and 2023 Samsung Soundbars and Samsung TVs are able to send Dolby Atmos content using Wi-Fi from the TV to the Soundbar. This feature is not compatible with a non-Samsung TV. ~Samsung Solutions
Answered by Samsung
- A: AnswerHi Kingfisher, As long as your Sony TV support Dolby Atmos, you will be able to have Dolby Atmos on compatible content. To achieve this, you will be required to connect using a HDMI Cable. Q-Symphony is a feature specific to Q-Series Samsung TVs from 2020 to 2023. ~Samsung Solutions
Answered by Samsung
- A: AnswerHello Rab, The HW-Q930C Soundbar will indeed be compatible with non-Samsung TVs, we do recommend using HDMI as this will offer the best audio and user experience. You will lose features such as Q-Symphony and Dolby Atmos over Wi-Fi. ~Samsung Solutions

Granted its not the 990 but i cant tell!
I have owned everything from the Samsung 550 to the 2021 Q990, so I took a chance on this in my bedroom connected to my Samsung 75" Q80 Q-LED TV, and WOW! I have the Q990c connected to my 2023 85" Q90 in the living room and honestly I can't tell a huge difference in sound between my bedroom and living room. The bass and surround sound is better but at almost double the price between the 2 systems i would probably just go with this Q930 in both rooms if i did it again. The 990 is better but not 2x better, and if you can get a deal on a floor model or return with the same warranty buy this. Thank me later, My 2 cents.

Exceeded expectations
This replaced an $1800 Samsung HWQ90R serious beast of a sound bar(now hooked up to my office computer as overkill), because that is a 2019 model and does not have the "Q-Symphony " capability that I need with my new Samsung 8k tv. This HW-Q930C sounds even better, especially when the Q-symphony is active and it is synched with the tv speakers. I am not an audiophile and can not nitpick and comment on every little specification, and how its all configured or what frequency sounds a hair off in certain sound modes. What I can say is that when I was watching a star wars movie with my 13 y/o grandson we were both blown away and totally immersed in the sound from the movie! It felt like we were the ones flying around in a millennium falcon. My Grandson was sincerely impressed, and it doesn't get much better than that! I do wish it was easier to read the display though, like maybe a little larger and more centered.

Awesome Sound
Amazing sound quality with Q Symphony. Plenty of base from the wireless sub. Does come with wall mounts for soundbar which is not specified in details so that was a bonus. Did have to order wall mounts for rear speakers but that’s typical to any surround. Glad we chose to match soundbar with tv for best sound.
