Hdmi Or Optical For Samsung Soundbar

My Sonos Beam soundbar is first generation and doesn’t have WiFi and I did not want long Ethernet cabling to hook it up. That means I chose to not use internet connection to my beam. So, my solution was to get the adapter and use the TV optical out for my audio source. I also needed more than one optical source so I purchased a one in and three out powered optical splitter. For me this arrangement is perfect as I now can use my subwoofer optionally or just my soundbar, or my wireless headphones. The volume of the beam is adjusted with a remote which I purchased. I am satisfied with this adapter which converts optical audio into an HDMI output. Using an HDMI cable between the adapter and my Beam was the finishing touch. This item is recommended if you want to go the route I chose.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am so thrilled that I finally took steps to upgrade my home theatre sound with the Samsung Soundbar S50B. I love my smart TV, but the sound quality on its own is not at all smart. I found myself constantly turning the volume up and down in a battle to find the right level because speaking was too quiet but music and sound effects were way too loud. The Samsung Soundbar has solved that issue immediately with no need for adjustment on my end; the sound as I watch movies, TV, or play video games is well balanced. I also have satellite radio on my TV, and it sounds awesome on the soundbar. Setup was super easy too- I just used the included HDMI cord to plug in to the HDMI/ARC port on my TV, plug in the power cord, and select the source and it was ready to go with no troubleshooting needed. I just love when something works like it's supposed to the first time, and is intuitive. I'm a happy camper!

Used as soundbar for our Samsung TV.

Love that TV , but I wished it had an Optical connection for my Soundbar.

I was able to mount Samsung soundbar easily. It meets my need.

This adapter worked perfectly to connect my tv, which only had an optical output, to the soundbar.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Samsung UltraSlim Soundbar has completely transformed my home entertainment experience. Its slim design seamlessly blends with my TV setup, occupying minimal space while delivering maximum impact. What truly sets it apart is its exceptional sound quality. The clarity of dialogue, richness of mid-tones, and depth of bass elevate every viewing session in a new way compared to my old setup! I’m a huge bass guy and I was very impressed with the sound especially from what is a very compact sub. Setting up the soundbar was a breeze, even for someone like me who isn't particularly tech-savvy. The included instructions were clear and concise, guiding me through the process effortlessly. Connecting it to my TV via HDMI ARC was straightforward, and within minutes, I was enjoying theater-quality sound in the comfort of my own home. The soundbar also comes with a user-friendly remote that allows me to adjust the volume, switch between different sound modes, and fine-tune the audio to my preferences with ease. One of the features I appreciate most about this soundbar is its Bluetooth connectivity. Being able to stream music wirelessly from my phone adds a whole new dimension to my entertainment setup. Overall, I couldn't be happier with my Samsung UltraSlim Soundbar. Its combination of sleek design, exceptional sound quality, and user-friendly features make it a standout choice for anyone looking to elevate their home entertainment setup. If you want to enjoy top-notch audio without sacrificing space or aesthetics, look no further!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Samsung Soundbar (HW-S700D) really impressed me. I was a bit skeptical at first as I thought the slimness of this soundbar may not produce good enough sound, however I was pleasantly surprised when I fired up one of the Marvel movies and the sound was pretty good! The subwoofer also did not disappoint, the deep bass was just enough for our living room. I liked the handy remote, and the soundbar sits unobtrusively with our TV and pumps awesome theatrical Dolby Atmos. I would definitely recommend this Soundbar to anyone looking to upgrade their sound system, as it is easily installed and ready to wow you.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was previously using a standalone soundbar without a subwoofer from a different brand which wasn’t too bad but having the Samsung QN-95B 75” TV and knowing what the built-in TV speakers were capable off I was also missing out on using them until I discovered Q-Symphony that allows the TV Speakers to be used in addition to the soundbar. The Samsung HW-S700D Soundbar was a perfect fit was my living space and served this purpose extremely well. The Soundbar and Subwoofer was super easy to setup. Although wireless capable, I chose to use the HDMI cable provided and it was an instant detection and pairing. My Samsung TV automatically recognized the Q-Symphony compatibility and adjusted the sound accordingly for maximum balance and range. The SpaceFit Sound Pro worked its magic to utilize the position and space and adjust automatically even while watching content in real time. No other setup required. I moved the subwoofer to various positions, and ultimately had it next to the sofa which enhanced the bass and feel. The Soundbar and Subwoofer provide great sound levels with well-balanced Treble, Mid, and Bass levels. The bass was a much-needed addition and gave the overall feel a more realistic vibe specially when watching movies and certainly listen to music. The bar is super slim yet performed extremely well for its form factor. It took up much less space than other soundbars and the overall design is super sleek to blend in with my room decor.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Q800D Soundbar is mind blowing with how clear and satisfying it sounds. I have a few Samsung sound bars and I can't believe how Samsung keeps raising the bar (lol) every time. This soundbar shines with Dolby Atmos content, the immersion is surprisingly better than some home theater setups that are much more expensive. I wish there were more HDMI inputs on the soundbar and that it could support waking up when using a PC. But other than that, this soundbar has modern features that'll work in any smart home ecosystem.
