Samsung Harman Kardon 5.1 2 Channel Soundbar

As an engineer I has hoping for a lot, but the 5.1 channel sound of this complete Arc soundbar based home theater system is far beyond my expectations. Since we have Android phones I did have to enlist my son-in-law with his iPhone to do a more thorough system calibration needed to provide the full scope of sound on modern movies and TV, but once fully calibrated to the room in which it's located the sound is just superb.

This is my third audio device. I have a harman kardon speaker, bose q25 headphones and finally these Kanto YU2 speakers. I've never heard anything so clear in my life, the base is so good for its size. I was going to get the Kanto SUB6 to go with it but I don't think I'm going to need it anytime soon. It is worth every penny you won't regret these speakers. JUST DO IT. SO GOOD.

I bought my first Harman Kardon speaker in 2017 and it was the best purchase. The sound is clear and can be heard throughout the house. The sound is so nice and clear that when my brother heard it, he had to get one for himself. I needed a smaller speaker for the bathroom/bedroom and my first and only choice was Harman audio. Great speakers!

Overhead some people at work taking about Harman Kardon products being great. I am a big fan of one of their biggest competitors and at the time was happy with my choice. After 7 years my speaker went out and so I did a quick search for portable speakers and this was one that came up with others. I remember hearing the name so I focused in and did about 3 days of research. Everything from reviews to product design had me thinking this was the one. After using for a few weeks, I am so pleased with this speaker. The clarity on the lows is so nice and the volume is immersive without being overwhelming. On top of that the price is lower than buying new one with my first love. I will keep my eyes out for their products in the future when in need.

I own several speakers, JBL, Harman Kardon, Bose, Klipsch, this are good looking speakers, the sound is clear, the white light looks very good, buy this if you are looking for a home speakers in small place or something to use with your Computer it will be perfect for it

I recently had my 30+ year old Harman Kardon equipment all refurbished after it sitting for several years. It sounded pretty good once it was all set up again. I remembered it sounding better though. I wondered if it was just wishful thinking or if something else was needed. Then I realized all of my cables were also 30+ years old too. They were also just the stock ones that came with the equipment. I wanted cables that are good, but affordable. Mogami's meet that criteria and are used by audio engineers and professional musicians. After installing them my system sounds even better than the way I remembered it. I bought the 12' cables because I have two Harman Kardon Citation 22 amplifiers bridged together and connected to a Harman Kardon Citation 25 preamplifier.

A speaker that is all of 8" x 4" and still makes for great, non-tiring music listening sessions is a wonderful thing. I am using these in a 2.1 with a Harman Kardon receiver and a Martin Logan sub and even movies sound great. And this is while I am still working on figuring out the best crossover from the sub to the satellites.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently upgraded my Soundbar from a 7.1.2 Channel bar to the Samsung Q910D 9.1.2 Channel bar, and the upgrade was beyond worth it! This is a fully immersive experience with sound so good that it almost makes it challenging to focus on the screen. The room my TV is in is long and narrow, so not having the sound bounce around and just sound jumbled & loud has always been tricky. The SpaceFit Sound Pro calibration instantly made the sound amazing. I have the Samsung QN85B Neo QLED TV, and it pairs beautifully with this setup. I did find that setting the soundbar up on SmartThings via the TV had a hiccup, but then I just moved to my phone, and it was all dialed in within a minute to two. The back speakers are awesome! I honestly didn’t know I needed them, especially in my room, but there are so many little nuances to shows and movies that these speakers capture to really make you feel like you are in the middle of the entertainment. I think one of my biggest surprises is the balance that the system provides. The adaptive sound feature is incredible. The dialogue track of everything I have watched is crystal clear no matter if it is an intense action scene, the Taylor Swift concert on repeat with my daughter, or a quieter scene. Trust me, you won’t miss a thing. Another added benefit of pairing this soundbar with a Samsung TV is that the profile is perfect. Currently my TV is not wall mounted, so the soundbar sits perfectly in front of my TV without impeding the picture or leaving a gap between the bar and the TV. It provides a very clean design that feels integrated into the room. I have not tested the soundbar on a different brand of TV to verify that the quality when used with a Samsung TV is better, but all I can say is I will never watch TV the same again. This soundbar makes you appreciate your investment in a decent TV.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I replaced our 10-year-old 2-channel soundbar with this Samsung model for our bedroom, where we love watching movies at night without disturbing our sleeping children. Our old soundbar often made it hard to hear dialogue without turning up the volume, which was problematic with an 8-month-old in the next room. This Samsung soundbar solves that issue with its voice dialogue enhancement feature, which clarifies dialogue without needing to increase the volume. The 5-channel setup delivers excellent audio quality, especially given the compact size of the soundbar. One of the standout features is its smart functionality, particularly the Alexa compatibility. We used to rely on a small Echo Dot for connectivity, but the built-in Alexa on the soundbar has replaced it, providing a significant upgrade in audio quality. Additionally, the Samsung app allows me to switch between audio settings seamlessly from my phone with no lag. Overall, we are very satisfied with this soundbar and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a high-quality, smart soundbar.

This is my first time buying a 5.1 surround soundbar, and I must say I'm pretty impressed with the sound.
