Review on πŸ”Š Enhance Your Audio Experience with the SAMSUNG SWA-8500S 2.0 Speaker System Wall Mountable Black Model (SWA-8500S/ZA) by Ashley Rice

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great addition to the HW-N850 soundbar

Just bought this to complement my new HW-N850 which is a 5.1.2 Atmos capable system. As good as my soundbar is, it still lacks an immersive viewing experience. The HW-N950 has surround speakers and is a 7.1.4 system but costs about $400 more. This is how the SW-9000S presents itself. And since this model sells for an average price of $100 almost everywhere (in Revain below), the SW-9000S isn't difficult for my soundbar. Setup is very easy and there's no need to install the included N-Series soundbar receiver, but volume is a bit tinny and surprisingly, volume peaks once paired with the soundbar. And while this speaker set doesn't turn my soundbar into a 7.1.4 system, the 7.1.2 system makes me a happy camper.

Pros
  • Expensive but decent
Cons
  • Disappointing hardware
