Overview
A home theater owner gets a full surround system here: a wide bar, wireless rear speakers and a wireless subwoofer, all aimed at true Dolby Atmos. The bar connects to the TV with HDMI and mounts on a wall or stands on rubber feet.
The rear speakers give real surround rather than virtual effects, and room tuning shapes the sound to the space. The system needs several outlets, a wide shelf or wall, and a compatible Samsung TV to use Q-Symphony.
Who it's for
A movie or sports fan with a big Samsung TV who wants wireless surround without running speaker wire. Gamers can use the game mode with consoles. Shoppers with limited space or a non-Samsung TV can use a smaller bar.
Pros and cons
- Wireless rear speakers included
- True Dolby Atmos with height channels
- App and voice control
- Very wide for small TV stands
- Heavy to wall mount
- Needs several power outlets
- Q-Symphony limited to recent Samsung TVs
Performance notes
Real rear speakers place sound behind the listener, which does more for surround than reflected sound from the front. Height channels bounce off the ceiling, so a flat ceiling of normal height works best. Wireless speakers each need power and a clear link to the bar, and setup tools tune levels to the room.
