Samsung Tv + Soundbar Mode

Used as soundbar for our Samsung TV.

[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.] I was really excited to get this soundbar because I know Samsung consistently delivers quality products that are top of the line and this Samsung HW-Q800D soundbar delivers! The first thought that came to my mind when I received and opened the soundbar was Wow this is one beautiful soundbar, it's so elegant and sleek looking that it looks good in any space without effort. Unpacking and setting up the sound bar was effortless and it had a nice premium feel to it without being too heavy. It comes with 2 power cords for both the soundbar as well as the subwoofer, a high speed HDMI cable, and the One remote by Samsung which is pretty sleek, but unfortunately does not have the solar panel recharging ability, which to me is not a big deal. Setting up the soundbar just requires plugging it in and turning it on. Once you turn it on is when you know how awesome this soundbar sounds and is immediately clear that it packs a powerful punch in a not so big size. The great thing about it is that it has many sound modes including Q-symphony, Dolby Atmos, Game Mode Pro, Active Voice Amplifier and many more. The Q-Symphony mode is truly magical because it fills the room with sound that you wouldn't think is possible from a soundbar in this size. Everyone that enjoys watching movies nowadays knows about Dolby Atmos and its ability to deliver sound from the upfiring speakers to truly immerse you into a movie. Game mode pro is also a sound mode I enjoy a lot since I game occasionally and helps me get immersed in my games with its crazy 3D sound capabilities. It's hard to talk about every awesome feature this soundbar has since there are so many, but for anyone that purchases this for their home entertainment setup, they will be blown away by this soundbar and I recommend it to everyone.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought Dec 2022 to go with a new samsung TV. The pair use what's called q symphony which allows all the speakers to be used from both the tv and sound bar to work as one unit. Overall the sound is great not much adjusting needed. Only downside is the soundbar doesn't use eARC just ARC through one port, so everything needs to be connected to the TV then the TV to the soundbar, no optical connection either. It's very long for a soundbar which should fit under a 55" or larger, but the depth is extremely slim compared to the Q800 model that I saw in a retail store. Overall love the soundbar thinking on picking up the matching rear atmos wireless speakers soon to finish it off. If you need alot of connections directly to your soundbar or need a digital display on it, this soundbar is not for you. For everyone else, especially samsung tv owners who can use Q Symphany, want to have a very flush mounting soundbar, the HW-S800B is an excellent purchase, with the option to expand to a full 5.1(2).4 system.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this soundbar, It’s easy to set up and is perfect for watching tv in a bunch of different modes whether it be normal tv, gaming and or movies. There are three different ways to connect the sound bar (HDMI (ARC), optical or blue tooth) but I chose blue tooth because it works best for me as no additional cables are required. It comes with a sub woofer which provides a really nice complimentary sound and is also automatically detected upon blue tooth set up. There are several different sound modes including surround sound, game mode, adaptive and standard, all accessed easily by using the remote. It also has a night mode which lowers the base so I can sleep while my wife watches tv at night. Basically, this soundbar is easy to set up and has a lot of great features which makes it fun and easy to use.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my review of the Samsung Soundbar HW-QS730D It has a nice bass sound that isn't overwhelming. The subwoofer helps give it some of the deeper bass sounds that normally get lost. The sound from soundbar fills my average sized living room perfectly. Most of the controls can be done via the remote but having the smartthings app gives you more control for adjustments. The night mode is pretty good. I found that using the hdmi arc was best for sound quality for myself and my tv. Plus by using it that way when I turn my tv on or off the soundbar will automatically do the same. I have tried the wireless connect with my tv. Unfortunately my tv is too old for that and doesn't work with it. I can connect my Amazon Alexa and Chromecast to the sound bar. I can have the volume increase or decrease for the soundbar by using either of those two. I have not used the the game mode because I don't have a game system to use with it as of right now. I have not noticed any tinny sounds from the soundbar at all. I am very pleased with the quality of sound that this soundbar gives. I'm not an audiophile so this is my honest review on this soundbar.

i love the tv ishoud have bought the samsung soundbar and sub that was on display with the tv.It sounded fantastic.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought it because of the slim design but I really love it now and I don't miss those bulky soundbars at all :) I connected it with my QLED Q70A and being a Samsung soundbar it is so compatible with my TV and very easy to use and operate. The theater experience is awesome with WIFI Dolby ATMOS. I love the audio coming from it every bit. Whether you Sport or movie it feels awesome. My Kid loves to play games on Xbox on this tv and he loves it. It's slim design is awesome and as I said both my Tv and Soundbar compliment each other very well. I may be biased as I have Samsung TV as well but I am sure it works great on other TV brands as well. It's a great Soundbar. thumbs Up to Samsung

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We recently purchased a new Samsung tv, and I splurged on this compact soundbar. I'm very glad I did! It was pretty easy to connect and then use the q-symphony setting to sync with the tv. The dialog on the shows we watch is much more clear with this soundbar! It has only been a few days, but I am hopeful we will not have to use captioning any longer to be able to follow the dialog. I am very satisfied with the purchase and would recommend it to anyone.

Used this with Samsung UN40MU6290 (40 in TV). I needed to raise the TV further off of the dresser so that a Sonos Beam soundbar could fit beneath the TV without blocking the IR receiver on the TV. The stand that came with the TV was too low. The SANUS VSTV1 stand is well built and comes with all of the necessary screws and attachments. Putting it together was not difficult. I was able to adjust it so that the TV was at a perfect height to work with the Sonos Beam soundbar. A lip on the lower portion of the TV (and small TV size) limited positioning of the vertical brackets that are attached to the TV. For the height that I needed, this meant that the brackets stuck out approx 1 cm above the top of the TV. I ended up using a saw to cut off the ends of the bracket so that they did not stick out.
