Best thing for the money, glad I did it.

I am satisfied with the purchase, according to American publications, this one and this one with rear speakers are considered the best!

Pros
  • The sound is simply amazing, I have not heard such a pleasant bass in any model when choosing soundbars in the premium class, perhaps something comparable in floor acoustics at such a price, but there is nowhere to put floor debris and collect dust. Bracket included
Cons
  • You need to be careful with a rag, not just wipe it off and you're done, but it looks premium and guests often want to touch it!

A nice option for the money, one of the best deals.

I use it in conjunction with LG C1 connected via eARC, it worked immediately and without problems. The main thing is not to forget to enable direct sound forwarding in the TV and check the box "sharing with TV". I am satisfied with the purchase, for 56k - the best offer at the moment.

Pros
  • Laconic appearance, quite compact, fabric on the entire front. Excellent, powerful sound sound (usually a volume level of 13-15 out of 100 is enough). The dedicated center channel really works, the dialogue is always perfectly audible and they are perfectly positioned. In films/serials with 7.1 tracks, the volume is really felt, the sound does not go from above (as in a cinema), the scene acquires a "height" in front of the screen.
Cons
  • - fabric on the entire front, if there are pets, the sticky roller is your best friend - native Smart Things app doesn't work on iOS (can't connect soundbar through it, constant error 14-004). Through android earned immediately - no problems - the screen is on top, in general it is not really needed, but when you need it, you have to get up and go look at it

Not a bad buy, well worth the money.

Has some pros: + Good and clear sound + Powerful and booming bass that you don't want to turn down + Excellent appearance + Decent weight design + Pretty narrow subwoofer + Easy setup and integration Cons: - SpaceFit Sound adaptive sound mode ONLY works with Samsung TVs - Fast NFC audio streaming function ONLY works with Samsung smartphones - The fabric will quickly gather dust

The panel itself plays very well. Yes, and the sub does its job (even if the phase inverter pulls the blanket over itself), working exactly when it is needed, without interfering with the operation of the panel itself. Sensitive to audio signal. If it's a normal TV with compressed audio. You will hear all the delights of compression. But if you include a movie with DTS HD Audio Master. You will hear all the details. Watched on Blu ray "Survivor" with 7.1 You can hear everything. How the wind…

Pros
  • Good panel sound. Complete 7.1.2. (15 speakers + bass reflex subwoofer). The center speaker conveys voices perfectly. All possible supported audio formats. HDR 10/10+ support. Ease of connection and settings. Usefulness. 1. Switch all connected devices from PCM to signal pass-through. 2. ADAPTIVE mode really just highlights the center channel while muting the rest. I do not recommend for use. 3. For Dolby Atmos, the included HDMI 1.4 cable will suffice. The main thing is that the HDMI ports are 2.0 and older versions. And a simple ARC input on TV. With Apple TV, the inscription appears on the DA panel. 4. Find the HEVC file with track E-AC3 (DD+) 5.1+Atmos. And you get the top two channels. There is no DA inscription on the panel. The main thing is that the TV would support E-AC3. This is a very common format. 5. In the settings, raise the volume of the top speakers. With Atmos, the sound becomes even more interesting. 6. PS4. Switch to Dolby Digital or DTS mode. Check sound in game settings. In Gran Turismo, for example, you can choose 7.1. 7. In Smart Things application - Sound feedback. The English panel will tell you which mode/port is currently active. 9. Frequency equalizer - adjusts the soundbar. The sub is separately adjustable.
Cons
  • The problem here is only one - the subwoofer. It's like it's there, but it's like it's not there. Phase inverter "blowing" be healthy. But there is nothing good in this. He creates this hum. One thing pleases that he does it only when necessary. The speaker itself, and it is 20 cm here, by the way, gives bass, but it does it so inexpressively and quietly that sometimes you doubt that it exists at all. There is no density in the sound. The bass boost settings don't help. Auto EQ to tune the subwoofer through the built-in microphone, works 1 time out of 7. Therefore, if you manage to use this function, it is better not to touch it anymore. And yes, nothing really changes. If you have not had a subwoofer before, then most likely everything will suit you. Before that, I used a 2.1 system with an 18cm subwoofer. In the movie "Blade Runner 2", at the beginning, when one hits the other against the wall, it felt like someone in my apartment was hitting the wall. The sound was so thick. This sub is trying, but by the sound, it happens somewhere near the neighbors. It's not that expressive.

Best product I have ever reviewed, I recommend it to everyone!

1. Healthy sub. Healthy soundbar: as wide as the 55th LG panel, more than 15 cm deep. Unusually a little. The weight of the box is 23 kg, it is very problematic to drag one alone. 2. Conveniently controlled by LG TV remote control. It turns on / off with it and the volume is adjusted from the TV remote control. 3. I'm thinking about buying rear speakers SWA-9500S. As I understand q900a will gently turn into q950a. And this is the best bar for today according to RTINGS dot com. 4. Changed ARC to

Pros
  • 1. Sound in Dolby Atmos fire. Netflix has become noticeably more interesting to watch. 2. Music is played surprisingly well. I compare with Marshall Woburn and Denon 516. The device plays better in both cases. 3. Sub placed in a corner, 6 meters from the soundbar. The bass is soft, the brain cannot localize the source. Cool. 4. Easy to set up: turn on and play. In the instructions that come with the set, the sequence of connecting the subwoofer is written. It’s good that he didn’t fool around with it, but simply plugged it into an outlet. Thanks for the previous reviews. 5. On the Samsung website, the instructions are in 2022, everything is described in sufficient detail. 6. Samsung support works great. I asked in the chat what kind of light bulb lit up red on the front panel. They quickly answered that the microphone was off. 7. Super, what is the indicator and buttons on the vertical panel. The lights don't interfere with the view. On the front light of a disabled microphone, and when you change the volume, you can also see it. The ergonomics are great. 8. Includes brackets for wall mounting. And a template for marking holes. Comfortable.
Cons
  • 1. There is no Alice. There is Ok Google, there is Alexa from Amazon, there is Spotify, but there is no Alice. She would have been completely happy. 2. No 3.5 audio input. Again, to connect little Alice. 3. Break away from Netflix has become more difficult.

One of the best offers, glad I bought it.

I thought about purchasing a hi-fi for a long time, the priority was a good "expensive" sound. I would like to see movies and listen to music through AirPlay. I got this device at a discount (and now you yourself know what happened to the prices for this category of goods, the Denons and Marantsy flew into space) In general, I read, studied and decided: and . I did not regret spending 75, after long settings, experiments with the location of the subwoofer, I got what I wanted. The sound is…

Pros
  • the sound quality is at its best, now I want to watch movies more often), without the rear, of course, it’s not super volume, but the stage is wide, and sometimes the sounds are heard quite aside. The bass is not intrusive, powerful. The volume margin is just incredible! It is felt that the specialists from Harman Kardon had a hand in this device))
Cons
  • there are some questions more about the software part, not the hardware: I would like more settings in the application, for example, sub settings (cutoff, phase, etc.), when switching sources, it does not remember the sound mode (for example, I listen to Airplay in "stereo", movies in " volumetric "you have to switch constantly - not in Feng Shui somehow. the fabric on the case is good, but the bar is not very nicely covered - but this is if you look closely at angles.

Great product, a pleasure to use.

For 3 weeks I tried 5 different soundbars, all of them had jambs that I could not reconcile with, I had to hand them over. And there were no claims to them in terms of frequency sound and sound perception, there were specific jambs in performance and implementation. I like everything about this soundbar, despite the minor quibbles. It's fast, powerful, great frequency sound, volume, and great performance. My setup is this: Philips 806 + Samsung Q900A + 9500S The only thing that can be improved…

Pros
  • Spacious chic sound You can buy rear speakers (9500S) and get honest 9.1.4 Support for all modern audio formats Support for the latest ports Very high quality performance The power supply is inside and not on the wire, as in the younger models The sound in this system instantly starts everywhere, and in the younger models, the rear speakers connected via bluetooth and the native subwoofer begin to reproduce the sound always with a delay, every time (this starts to enrage from the first day). The sub is large, powerful, and very well balanced, it does not pull the blanket over itself. There is a very powerful bass on the stick itself, which is why the soundbar cover is rag-like, like on a subwoofer, because it specifically pumps air like a subwoofer. The sound really envelops in honest Dolby Atmos. Provided that your TV supports Atmos, the content that you watch is also with honest Atmos. Often in the description of the film they will write: Atmos - but it is not there at all. Look for movies with honest soundtracks. For example, the series "Foundation" there is Atmos with 2022 voice acting, but not everywhere you will be given this series with the Atmos track, more often you can get a regular stereo track there, be careful. I connected everything to my 2022 Philips 806 TV, everything is controlled from the TV remote control, without the slightest delay. In the younger model of the 700 series, there were terrible glitches and turn-on delays. Everything here is lightning fast, it is very pleasing. The remote control is very compact and convenient. The stick is huge, even a little longer than the TV 55 diagonal. The sound is almost perfect. The voice is gorgeous, the effects all sound great. Felt almost like in a movie theater, when viewed with an Atmos sound track. Rear surrounds do not always sound, only when the sound engineer has taken care of it. There is a virtual sound, it works mega chic, a simple stereo spreads over all the speakers and you still feel the atmosphere of the sound. There is also 5.1 sound, without Atmos which sounds great too, on all speakers. Sound transitions forward and backward are heard. Awesome soundbar.
Cons
  • The fabric collects dust, prepare a brush. But this is a price for power and sound quality. The screen is only on top, in front of three LEDs that respond to pressing. It would be enough if the application had all the functions of the soundbar. But what you need from the remote is not there, in the first days you will get up and approach the sound to make settings on the screen. Which are not in the application. But then you won't have to run so often. Samsung has zero support for its products, they released it and forgot, they are engaged in the following products. Don't expect them to understand
