5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Soundbar / Great (Refurbished) Value
Reviewed in the United States on October 3, 2023
Bought the 5.1 ATMOS soundbar refurbished owing to its price ($159 - excellent as an entry point). No blemishes on any of the components - bar, surround speakers/receiver, subwoofer. Remote and surround speaker system were still factory sealed. Pairing was not intuitive but concisely documented. The entire system was paired and running in 10 minutes. Sound is immersive (still configuring the output) with plenty of options for creating theater effects. Adaptive sound mode removed the "echo" caused by our hardwood flooring, which was genius.

Other reviewers mentioned that the soundbar would stop playing; had this happen as well, but it was due to my Samsung Q-series TV outputting under the "Auto" instead of "PCM" setting. Once set, the output was consistent across live channels and several streaming services. For the money, this was a steal -

5.0 out of 5 stars Steal of the century

At this price, this is ridiculous. The ease of use of this system is truly amazing. And the sound quality is perfectly fine unless you’re aiming for true home theater experience. Even then, if you’re watching from say an Apple TV, on a Samsung TV, you’ll have an amazing experience. The sound quality across all volumes and types of audio is wonderful. The subwoofer leaves a bit to be desired on the low end at times, however.

1.0 out of 5 stars This is not a good soundbar
Reviewed in the United States on November 23, 2023
This soundbar averages 2.9 stars on Samsung's own website. I have to agree with that rating. I'm not sure why the ratings are so high on Amazon. The subwoofer feels deflective (barely any power). There is also an issue with the power cord. This unit does not come with a table or table stand/flat surface As a result of bad design the power cord actually sticks out from below. This makes the unit lopsided as it is lying on the flat surface of my table. The only fix I have is the mount the soundbar to the wall. After looking online, I find that this is a common problem. It seems like Samsung released a product that did not pass quality control. This will be the last time I trust Samsung as a brand.

4.0 out of 5 stars For the price, better than I expected

Has good broad sound and works well with my bedroom Samsung TV and easy setup. Has a lot of features, but not a lot of helpful doccumentation. I will probably need to look at some setup videos to get the most out of it. For me, it does what I want, good value and a big step up from my previous vizio soundbar.

5.0 out of 5 stars I really like this speaker system
Reviewed in the United States on October 7, 2023
I was leary when our chasing a refurbished system but Amazon, you e proved me wrong! This is a superior system for the price!
The system was really easy to install. I'm using Arc with a USB and the sound quality is better than I expected. The subwoofer is deep, the mid range is clear, and the rear speakers are crisp.
I'm thinking of purchasing another one for my other Samsung TV; it's just a great value for the quality.
Another win for Samsung.

5.0 out of 5 stars Soundbar setup was flawless with my QLED TV
Reviewed in the United States on October 19, 2023
The setup was incredibly simple, used HDMI 2.1 cable, eARC HDMI out from TV, eARC HDMI in on soundbar. Subwoofer connected when system powered up, Q-Symphony balanced automatically with my Samsung 65" QLED TV. I had read reviews about horrible sound, but assumed it was from improper setup using Digital Optical, Bluetooth or Wi-Fi. Still have settings to tweak but this HW-Q7CB sounds fantastic out of the box. Incredibly happy with my purchase from Amazon/Woot. Cheers
