Have had this soundbar setup for about 6 months and cannot recommend it highly enough. Wireless surround sound that is easy to set up and sounds great. Impressed me much more than Sonos and other brands similar and offerings have. If your tv has no DTS compatibility issues this is worth trying imo - has completely blown me away in films and will never go back to a non surround sound setup.
How is the Dolby Atmos effect you're getting? Is it quite noticeable?
@@Supernova094 it's very much noticable if your ceiling is flat and atmost 10ft high. It also depends on the studio sound production. Some movies have terrible or weak sound effects. An example is transformers. It has a lot of background music that suffocates the action sound effects. But " A QUIET PLACE II" is good. Whoever was behind sound knew their job pretty much.
It also depends on the position you're seated.
@@yvanokuba1649 thanks for reply , i ended up going with a dedicated 7.2.4 set up.
@@Supernova094 what speakers and recievers did u use and how much did it cost? r u from india?
Do the rear speakers and sub woofer operate with batteries or need to be plugged in a power point?
I think the rear satellite speakers have top firing speakers too
Yes it has. I own this bar abd it is absolutely incredible. It just have a little inconsistency with the sub. Sometimes it's incredible, while other times it feels underwhelming, depending of the content.
Yes they do.
@@ChileanSpartanUSA it's because their subwoofer has been downgraded since after the q90r. apparently the new bars are supposed to get an "upgraded" subwoofer, but no one knows what that means yet until tested.
Nah ya think
Great system, but i dont hear anythibg above my head like they claim but i dont mind its amazing. My room is not a flat celing and reaches almost 10 feet at the highest, so maybe that is why and I have a celing fan in middle of room, but I dont use it.
I've had mine since May. Totally happy with it since. Yeah the bass is at times is inconsistent. I watched Black Sails on blu-ray and on Vudu. It's one of the best series to watch and listen to. Not sure why people say the rears don't do it's job so try watching this series with surround or adaptive mode and listen how they come alive. I can't put it past volume 11-12 without it sounding like the cannons are blasting through my walls. I just bought The Guns of Navorone on 4k blu-ray and for an old film this transfer is amazing sounding. Picture quality too of course on an a80j Sony. Smartthings app with bass enhancement on also.
How is the Dolby Atmos effect you're getting? Is it quite noticeable?
@@Supernova094 Dolby atmos is great and noticeable. Absolutely.
Have you experienced any trouble with the rear speakers or sub cutting out?
@@charlienutt1175 First thing I did was switched out the hdmi cables for better ones. I have the q850t soundbar I bought first which had drop outs and read on forums to switch out the cables for better ones and that fixed the issue.
@@jkon1970 do you have DRC on or off? Samsung manual says with turned on, the sound may be distorted but I don't understand why in factory default settings it is turned on by default
OMG, this sound system is simply superb! Movies play outstanding. Not a single complaint. Music plays incredible as well. Just make sure the source you re playing music from is of good quality and you will be impressed how good it sounds. I was always a fan of Bose but this Samsung set up struck me with its quality that you get at this price. There is no other system in the world that will play close to this one at this price. I can highly recommend it.
Glad to hear you're happy with your purchase!

Rtings should consider working with Erin’s Audio Corner and his Klippel system for enhanced measurements and analysis of audio equipment.
It's also important to highlight that as of today, it doesn't accept DTS-HD MA or DTS:X from Sony tvs when connected through ARC/eARC. It's a compatibility issue between Sony tvs and Samsung sound bars.
Omg dude where did you find this info? I've been searching everywhere for someone to mention this because I've been having this same issue and idk what to do since I have a Sony X90J paired with a Q950A. It used to do DTS X but I don't know when it just stopped receiving the signal
@@BrendanEvansX Unfortunately, there is nothing you can do. I raised this issue initially to RTINGS, Sony, Samsung, Reddit. RTINGS was kind enough to go the extra mile and do some tests. They concluded that the combination of Sony tvs and Samsung sound bars are the culprit here. Furthermore, I've contacted Sony and Samsung support. Samsung outright refused to help me, and Sony escalated the issue to their engineering team (although it resulted in nothing). My combination consists of the X90J and the Q850A. I don't think I can post links, but if you search for "X90J DTS-HD MA" or "Samsung DTS-HD MA", you'll come across many posts and you will see that my combination is not the only issue, rather, when people pair any Sony tv with Samsung sound bar, they experience this problem. The posts on Reddit, RTINGS, Samsung communities, Sony communities have been started by me and the more people raise this issue, the more likely it is that the companies will take action.
Edit: for more reference on the tests that were done, type in rtings . com and add the following to the URL /tv/discussions/Q_HrsEsnVk3I2GdF/how-did-you-get-dts-hd-ma-and-dts-x-passthrough
This was frustrating for me as well originally. However, you can get DTS HD MA and X if you connect your external devices directly into the hdmi port on soundbar. I use this with my sony A80J.
@RK1916 Unfortunately, this is not a solution for me, as I need HDMI 2.1 features such as 120hz gaming on my PS5. As the sound bar doesn't pass through HDMI 2.1, I need the console to be plugged in directly when gaming, and plugged in the sound bar when I play DTS content. If only HDMI 2.1 switches were sold.
Ive a have a Sony TV and this soundbar. And No isues at All. You must be doing somthing wrong.
Thank you for your review. I am glad that the sound measures seem overall quite good. However, I think you overestimate the possibilities for changing settings and the actual performance in a room. I bought it because I wanted to get rid of the wires of my 5.1 surround system (main annoyance of running cables to the rear speakers). I also chose it over Sonos because I do not have a TV, I use it with a projector and the HDMI in from the Blue-ray player was important to me. Immediately I realized the difference in sound and surround effects. The soundbar doesn't get near a good dedicated system.
Overall the sound is good, but comparing to speakers from B+W or Bose the sound is lacking the punch from these brands. There are some surround effects but they are not pronounced and cannot be adapted. There is no way to tell the system that the rear speakers are 4.5 metres from the bar, etc. Further wireless connections are poor: You cannot connect the PC using Airplay, there are interruptions playing music from the iPhone (I never had using the AV receiver), Alexa is erratic.
I will go with the soundbar because simplifying was the most important aspect for me, but I will not keep it 20 years like the Monitor Audio speakers I had. In three years I will upgrade to a brand that focuses on making loudspeakers rather than a brand that does "electronics".
Purchase today only got this in less 1000 dollars total value for money deal
Great Content....👍😊
Sonus arc with sub and two 5's vs this?
Good review,does it have aux input for the microphone?
Hello!
This information can found in the "inputs" section of our review: www.rtings.com/monitor/reviews/corsair/xeneon-27qhd240
But yes it does.
Very nice
Hi, I like ur depth review, I need suggestion , hw q950a vs Sonos beam immersive set. Which one is good.
Unfortunately, we haven't reviewed the the immersive set for the Sonos beam, so we can't say how it compares to the HW Q950A. It's on our suggestion list though, so if there's enough interest, we'll buy and review. You can vote for it here if you'd like as well! www.rtings.com/soundbar/suggestions
Also, if you have any specific questions about products we've tested, we'd be happy to address them! :)
My prime need for the Samsung HW-Q950A is for my LG PF610P. I don't have a Samsung TV, in fact, no TV. I do a lot of movie watching on the LG PF610P - a long-throw full HD LED portable projector that gives a clear image of more than 20 ft wide diagonally on my wall. The PF610P has most streaming platforms- Amazon prime, Disney etc.
Would are the potential issues I might face between the two devices for movie watching?
Nothing immediate comes to mind, but without testing that specific setup, we really can’t say if there are any compatiblity issues or anything like that. Typically, we’d be happy to look into it, but we don’t have this TV. Sorry about that!
Did you ever try a 7.1 or 5.1 surround sound , do you think it is worth the upgrade to this? i have a 4k dolby atmos onkyo 5.1 system
Our experts are happy to answer your questions via our forums on our website! www.rtings.com/forums
Do you test with DRC on or off? Also why not use the adaptive sound instead of standard?
Hi there,
Thanks for taking the time for sending us your questions.
The DRC feature was off during testing. We normally test our soundbars with this feature off, when its available by the manufacturer.
Also, when testing surrounds, "Standard" was the preset that was selected. We did listen to music and movies in the "Adaptive" mode in order to get a subjective feel however we do not test with this preset as it may upmix or provide a less natural sound overall.
Hope this helps to answers your questions.
I can't understand, you say that the bass and treble adjustment does not change the frequency response, but at the same time you recommend modifications. Can you explain?
This might be due to the the timing of the video vs the review, but ultimately you're right and the bass and treble adjust don't have an impact. However, you can still make changes to the subwoofer levels and use the graphic EQ if you want to try and customize the sound!
Can you compare the Samsung to the lg
Just bought this yesterday and oh boy does this sound good. Not just soundbar good, but coming from a component system good. However it was mentioned somewhere that the bass and treble adjustment does not work. I updated the firmware right after installation, but for the this issue seems to be present. Anyone knows if this was ever fixed o not? The graphic EQ works in standard mode but the dedicated BASS and TREBLE adjuster doesn't seem to do anything.
Hey Oliver,
As far as we know, this issue is still present. However, If we come across reports of this being resolved in the future, we'll double check our unit and update our review. I'm glad you like the soundbar though! :)
Same here, by any chance did you inform Samsung support team ?
@@nagarjuna533 yes, I just received a mail from support yesterday to upload some audio files showing the problem.
I have a question and i hope i get the answer.Does this soundbar works nice and flawlessly with the new Apple TV 4k and LG B8 OLED ?? B8 passes DD+ just for the record.
Unfortunately, we haven't tested that specific setup and we don't have a B8 to check it either so we can't say for sure either way.
@@RTINGSdotcom Thank you for your answer. I totally understand your point and respect your honesty. Maybe can you tell me if this soundbar works as it should work whith Apple TV 4k ?
like♡Samsung soundbar♡from Thailand
I have this soundbar paired with a QN90A and every time I use it, the soundbar stops outputting any sound but I still hear ambient sounds since I have Q symphony on. But no center dialog. I've updated to the latest firmware for both TV and soundbar but it still happens. Everything is plugged into the TV and then e arc down to the soundbar. The fix is to unplug the HDMI from the soundbar and replug it and the TV recognizes the soundbar again. Then it's good for another 3 to 4 hours before it does it again. The Smart Things app didn't help finding a solution. All HDMI cables are new and rated for 4K/8K.
Had the same issue, returned the tv. It has been happening since 2018 samsung’s
All the negative comments have caught me by surprise. I have an old 5.1 Samsung Soundbar from 2017 that has worked flawless to me. I didn't expect this bar to have that many issues.
@@luisarsuaga7637 the cheaper bars seem to just be ok, but especially the 900 and 950 seem to get a lot of negative attention due to a whole load of issues and samsung not willing to fix it
I own both the neo qled and q950a. Its been working great for me tho I noticed it doesn't Play well with the apple tv box. Not entirely sure why. Same stuff happens to me but only when I'm streaming off the apple tv 4k. 2021 model
@@Zoranurai13 i have a q900a + SWA9500a working very well with a Hisense Android b7200. Everything is just so fine. This TV has worked well with q900a, q800a, Q70R, Q70T, and N550 soundbars with absolutely no issues. It kinda owned them literally.
Top, one of the best channels on TH-cam, I also have a channel and I show the open soundbars showing them inside.
Is this soundbar OK to pair with 65' LG C1? Or would you recommend different one.
I have it paired with the C1 and it's been great. I also got an nvidia shield pro to get dolby true hd support.
@@menukamunasinghe6018 I went with jamo atmos setup anyways. Way better for around similar price tag
I have a Sony X80K tv. Any known issues on the compatibility issue between this and samsung HW-Q950A ?
Nothing that we're aware of. Users also haven't brought anything to our attention either!
Oh Adam nice to see you again😍You're so gorgeous🤤
Samsung support is terrible. They keep releasing new products on annual basis, rather than dedicating resources to fixing critical bugs.
There is basically NO support.
Great news is that soundbars don't really need many updates... Its not like other products. It could be better but it's already great now and can play anything I throw at it. Not sure how other bars get that many updates, do you have examples ?
I do kind of regret not learning my lesson from the q950t. They never fixed that one and I thought the 950a would solve all the bugs, but now this one will never be fixed because there’s a new bar coming out again.
Would you recommend this over the new q930b (2022) they're both around the same price. This has an extra channel at the rear, was wondering which would sound better..
The Q950A is the better overall soundbar but the Q930B is still an excellent overall option. You can read more about it here: www.rtings.com/soundbar/tools/compare/samsung-hw-q930b-vs-samsung-hw-q950a/33405/23584?usage=8767&threshold=0.10 in our comparison if you’d like!
Which one did you choose?
Sir pl tell me what is the minimum size of the room require for this system
what do you mean minimum? do u mean if a room is too small it won't work well? Any size room is fine, the system gets very loud, very loud, but sounds good at low volumes too. I have a 18'x13'x8' and I never ever play louder then 40 (it goes up to 100).
If i connect this from PC to soundbar and soundbar to projector and my PC has dolby access, will i get a dolby atmos?
In this configuration, the projector could be connected or not and it would not change the playback capability of the bar. The tricky part here is there are so many different PC variables that some users may not be able to playback Atmos without the right hardware or software. Hope this helps!
Bar sounds nice but has to return it as it has horrible audio delay with earc on xbox series x with atmos. This was to an lg cx. Went to sonos and works great. Also q950a has some bugs like freezing
How's the bass compared to Samsung?
@@luisarsuaga7637 personally i enjoy the bass on the sonos maybe a little more. I’m no audiophile by any means and if the Samsung worked with no issues itd be my go to.
I'm so tempted to grab this soundbar on sale for $770 off retail, but I also have a Series X and am worried about the audio latency. So it's pretty bad then?
@@XhallelujahXxx it’s horrendous. Audio is like two seconds behind with the samsung.
Can second this. Xbox atmos lag makes games unplayable, and Dolby Digital from all sources is also not ideal. Xbox has additional issues, like not being able to pass Atmos to the bar through earc.
Amigo dá para você fazer o review do modelo 2022 o soundbar Hw-990B da Samsung
Já compramos e testamos esta barra de som, só não publicamos um vídeo ainda. Aqui está a nossa revisão embora! www.rtings.com/soundbar/reviews/samsung/hw-q990b
@@RTINGSdotcom muito obrigado pela atenção e informação No aguardo do vídeo do review da soundbar HW-990B Samsung. Porque aqui no Brasil muitas pessoas estão reclamando que as caixas traseira e o subwoofer estão desconectando das caixas de som!!!
Such a shame that the bugs will never be fixed since the new 2022 model will take priority. And I’d bet money that bar will have unfixed bugs at the end of its lifecycle too.
Which bugs
Hi sir,need an help.If i connect this sound bar to PC via Hdmi.I know that this support Dolby digital and DTS but Does dolby atmos or DTS:X works or not?
Without testing it with a PC we can't say for sure, but since the bar itself supports Atmos, then we expect it to work with your PC as well! :)
Thanks for the information bro.And currently i’m using Alienware R15 laptop with Sony HT-Z9F soundbar.Now i’m planning to buy this Samsung Q950A.That’s why i came here to clear my doubts.
I tested my laptop with hdmi connection to soundbar. I tested for dolby atmos by installing dolby access app from windows store. Then in windows sound setting selected dolby atmos. Dolby losseless samples worked wonderfully. Note: dolby access app is paid after 1 week trial.
Will ceiling fan affect the up firing sound?
It definitely could have an impact, yes. We're just not sure to what extent. Sorry about that!
Q950A, Q930B or Q800C+SWA9500s ? Without price aspect

HI IS THE Q900A IS THE SAME AS Q950A WITHOUT THE BACK SPEAKERS..??

No
how much better is the q950a then the n950 obviously 3 years apart i picked up the n950 for half the price and feel underwhelmed i feel like my meazely $250 vizio 5.1 outperforms the n950
Since we haven't tested the n950 and don't have our own data, we really can't quantify how much better it is. Logically though, things have improved in the past few years, and based on the information you provided, it seems like it's quite a bit better!
How do you connect rear speakers???
We don’t currently offer step by step guides for stuff like this, but if you take a look at the instruction manual, that info should be there!
@@RTINGSdotcom instruction book gone.
I've had mine for over a year and it's AVERAGE AT BEST. All the channels it Brags about only makes it harder to hear all the sounds. And DOESN'T give you a complete surround sound experience
No offense but this review is way late and below standards. There other issues you didn’t mention such as the ugly interoperability with LG OLEDs 2020 and 2021 resulting in no Dolby Atmos through eARC whatsoever. This was brought to light before last summer on your website. Also, you still didn’t test at 11.1.4.
Hahaha the new one is coming out soon so Samsung kindly asked them to help out clearing the Q950A stock
What kind of issues with atoms do you mean? I use the Soundbar with LG GX and it works fine.
Can I use these speakers for my theatre room connected to a projector, not a TV? I hate those bulky speakers that come with the package, spoils the whole look of the room. :(
Yes, you can, I had exactly the same need - I don't have a TV but use a projector. It works as you plan. See my comment above. However, I think if you have a dedicated theatre room you will not be blown away - depending on your budget of course ;-).
@@mux2007ch Thanks, Martin. Yes, I have a dedicated theatre room, but I can't spend more than $10K AUD. I can buy a decent 4K projector with a decent sound system within that budget, but I am still not a big fan of those bulky speakers that come with the package. I'll be happy with a decent sound system/soundbar for a home theatre as long as it doesn't spoil the look of my theatre room. Haha! I know I am crazy! lol
Had this for 6 months. Bass is horrible for open living rooms with tall ceilings even after all settings and room scan
Do you mean bass is irritating?
@@davidselva2035 as In it’s very weak and lacks depth.
Yeah .. I feel the same …. Do you have any suggestions plz
Just place the sub back in to a corner or between a wall and a closet that work for me if you place it to far away from a corner it will lack bass
Come on guys .... at minute 1:40 you state that " eArc = Extended Audio Return Channel" ...did not expect this from Rtings. eARC is Enhanced Audio Return Channel ...This happens when everything is read from a teleprompter.
Yeah, that is a small detail but immediately made the review not trustworthy. I mean, this is rtings, they should know that.
Thanks for pointing this out! We've got no excuse for this. You're absolutely right and we should've caught this. We can't promise we won't ever make mistakes, but we promise we'll do better in the future.
I wouldn't buy it because I had an 850a that made static in the voice channel and Samsung support was absolutely horrible and sub-standard. I brought it back to Best Buy and got the Vizio Elevate which has been amazing. I'll never buy another Samsung product, especially anything sound related. The issue I had was widely known and I wish I had read more reviews before buying it. 950a, 850a... to me it's all garbage.
When I had the Elevate, everything that didn't use Dolby like TH-cam, Spotify, Hulu, Nintendo Switch, and some 2.0 Movies had annoying sound drops. When hearing music, the volume on some songs went crazy high. Settings are sometimes magically changed by themselves. The 5.1 PCM never worked.😮💨 I really wanted to like the Elevate, but at that time, the bugs and issues were too much for me. Have you experienced anything of this?
I agree with you, this was also my last sound purchase from Samsung - it's a product company like a grocery, it doesn't care what you do with the product after you buy it.
Nothing is better than Sonos in my opinion. I’ve gotten the HT-A9 though, simply for the upfiring rears, and the wider soundstage
This is quite likely. Samsung is not a sound company. But Sonos only works with a TV not with a Blue-ray attached to it directly - and I don't have a TV. :-(
Samsung owns harmon Kardon and harmon kardon owns jbl. They are a sound company, one of the biggest players in sound
@@flailmanx3 I'm not knocking the samsung, still great. But no room correction feature is a deal breaker

NEVER BUY THIS PRODUCT!!!! I just bought this. The surround speakers don’t do its job. The after sales support is the worst that I have ever dealt with. I’m planning to return it, however Samsung doesn’t want the crap back. All the guys who are reviewing this product, need to clear their ears of wax😂
I agree. For me the reason to keep it was that I could get rid of the cables. But it is an overall disappointing product - praised unduly in my paid TH-cam channels.
It's not a bad product. It's actually good and very good. I bought a q900 a + surround speakers and in the first day I was kind of disappointed but as time went on I gave it some time to read through the instructions and the reviews and it just got better. I realized one needed to increase the volume of the rear speakers using the remote in the settings. And also the rear speakers work best in adaptive mode. Other modes such as 'Standard' may not always work well simply because some content was never professionally produced. But adaptive will give the expected results and seriously realistic sound. But it also gets better when you connected to a 2021 QLED tv. And it actually too good for its price
@@yvanokuba1649 - I’m really happy it works for you. I’ve benefited from the experience too. I do have an Oled tv though. Moving forward, I’ll just spend on the best sounding TV & leave it at that. Earbuds will take care of spatial , Atmos & if I really need a true movie experience, the cinema will be my choice. 😊
@@rajindarsingh1417 for some reason lg OLED and Sony don't do well with Samsung soundbars. But Hisense Android TV and Samsung are great. While Samsung automatically chooses the best settings especially in ADAPTIVE mode, Hisense has got friendly sound settings which yield good results. I have been terribly disappointed with Sony. U set up a system to it and trust me u got no idea what the hell u are listening to. Rears barely work. I took it back to the store and swapped for q95t Samsung which blew my mind😳🤯
@@yvanokuba1649 - Thanks, I thought of trying the Sony HT-A9 , thanks for saving me. I’m hoping to give the sound bar away to a Nephew who always wanted a sound bar.
I’m still stuck with my Opus2 5.1 & Denon amp. Nobody wants to buy it 😂.
I’m definitely scaling down.
Take care every one & live life to the fullest 🙏🏼
ah yes, the overrated soundbar from the overrated company. bugsung soundbars are not worth it and samsung even knows that - that's why 2 months after release you can get their top-tier soundbar at 35-40% off on ebay. hell, on samsungs site they normally have a 20% discount within 2 months of release.
You're right. It is massively overrated. I negotiated a 25% discount online and got it without any pushback. But I wouldn't buy it again.
Answer : No ! Because LG OLED is still the King of TVs 👑 and Sonos is the King of Sounds 👑
whilst I don't want to detract from your right to a subjective view, is it wise to be so brand loyal? they certainly don't care for you, nor is every "great" company free one the occasional bad product.
Sonos is great...but 3× the price as the 950
SONOS? king of sounds? lol more like taking the spot of BOSE former fans... SONOS is literally overrated AF! please go listen to better speakers....
Ratioed
Yeah Sonos king of sounds if you never heard a proper sound set up lol. Clueless...
