Wow,
Everything arrived in perfect condition, all included items were packaged very well and it was easy to figure out what everything was for.
Setup was easy, plug it in, plug in the woofer and it paired together instantly without any work needed from me.
The included manual was a little lacking, no mention of the different sound modes, etc. I switched it over to DTS and immediately noticed how much better the sound was.
The range seems so much better than the previous bars used at this price point. The remote is very easy to use, and isn't overwhelming with buttons, etc.
And the volume range is very large, I listen to many different sources ranging from a media server, to streaming online to live and recorded media. And it's nice to b able to adjust it very easily.
Having separate volume controls for the subwoofer directly on the remote is a nice touch as well.
It fits in the curve of your hand very well and it comfortable to use.
Adding the controls to my universal remote system was easy as Samsung uses the same basic commands for most of its remotes.
It doesn't matter if you are listening to music, watching the news, or watching a movie, this soundbar really fills the bill. It adds a great amount of depth and sound without a need for a bigger audio system or a bunch of wires.
Also, the soundbar sits very low, so it doesn't block the bottom of most screens.
It's all black and the display, while bright and easy to read automatically dims and turns off so there is no visual distraction unlink other bars I have used in the past.
The subwoofer is a nice size, easy to place and it looks very nice in the room.
It is also all black with no color accents so it just blends in with the rest of the room.
The amount of bass it puts out, even at lower settings is pretty surprising.
But being able to easily adjust the amount of bass with the remote is a vast improvement to having to physically adjust it on the speaker itself.
It also includes a nice pair of mounting brackets to mount this to the wall, but I didn't need them for my application, but they are very solid and would easily support the speaker.
This replaced an existing soundbar, and the difference was night and day.
Between the appearance, features, and sound fidelity this soundbar offers, I couldn't be happier.
