    The soundbar and accessories arrived in great easy to unpack packaging. Setup was a breeze. Now the sound review. Samsung continues to provide great products that give great sound at an affordable price. The sound is great for surround and voices are crystal clear. The q symphony was auto detected and I was up and going in minutes.

    I purchased the Samsung TV and the Samsung soundbar because I wanted the Q symphony sound using both the TV speakers, the soundbar, wireless base, and wireless surround sound speakers. Really like the set up, minimal wires, and I think great sound. The only issue I am having is that it somehow comes un-synced with each other even though Im using an HDMI E-ARC cable to connect the devices for a "seamless integration". My wife could care less about surround or Dolby Atmos- so if I spend 3-5 minutes to try to reprogram our TV and the soundbar before we watch a show it frustrates her which frustrates me. I wanted to turn the TV and soundbar on with one remote and have it "actively" adjust the sound system for an optimal experience, When it works its great, when it doesnt I sometimes watch shows with just the TV speakers because I dont want to spend the 3-5 minutes (as mentioned above) setting it all up again while wife is patiently waiting. I have seen this complaint on just about every TV/Soundbar forum I have found while trying to find the "fix". Sounds like there isnt one. Even if you download the newest software updates as of July 2025. Anyway, it would really be great if Samsung fixed this for us all. I bought this system (TV/Soundbar) to last about 6 years which is typically how long we use a system. This replaced a 4k TV and an 8 speaker, several thousand dollar system that sounded great, vibrated the house (if you wanted it to), had wires going everywhere. Anyway Help!

    Hi TTownWatcher, Thank you for taking a moment Thank you for choosing this Samsung Soundbar. We value your feedback regarding issues with the soundbar and TV ARC. Here are a few things you can check to resolve the ARC issue: 1) Make sure the TV has the latest software Version 2) Try setting the digital audio output setting on the TV to PCM 3) Try a different HDMI cable. The cable should be a high-speed HDMI cable capable of 4K/30Hz If you need more help, Samsung is here for you. Please call us at 1-800-SAMSUNG, 8AM - 12AM EST (Ask for Soundbars), 7 days a week.

    I upgraded from a 6year old LG soundbar. Wanted to go with Q symphony to take advantage of the TV with same technology. The sounds doesn't disappoint. My old soundbar made it hard to make out movies with low talking. This one allows you to bring that sound out more. My kids and I put movies and have a great time with the surround. We feel emersed in the movie.

    The sound from Q Series 11.1.4 ch Wireless Dolby ATMOS Soundbar is way better than the TV speakers. With the back speakers It really feels like watching movies at the theater!

    I purchased this soundbar to replace my Klipsch that kept breaking on me. Even though it is made of plastic, it is a better soundbar. The most thing I wish it had is a better subwoofer.

    I bought this through reading and watching endless reddit and youtube reviews. It's definitely a fantastic system, especially for the price. They always have insane deals going on so it's a no-brainer. I did, however, expect theater quality atmos based on the aforementioned reviews but was a bit disappointed from there being no overhead sound. Maybe I don't have it tuned right. Listening to music leaves more to be desired as well, but the system isn't for that, it's built for movies and they sound amazing paired with the sub and rear speakers. All things considered, it's for sure a must buy for the price it sells for.
