The 990B is hands down the most impressive soundbar we've heard (so far) in 2022 --though admittedly, it's not a night and day improvement or different than the 950A from last year. Great review and I appreciate the shout out!

Hi Caleb, Thanks for the great review as always. Could you please review the Nakamichi shockwafe 9.2.4ch 1300W soundbar system.

We enjoyed 3 years of the older Q90r and already this is really impressive. I cannot be more surprised how much sound they put into the thing with such a price. We will upgrade and can't wait to hear the new bar. The Atmos in Q90r while listening Atmos music in Tidal was already amazing.

Just got one of it in $970 with workplace discount. Very impressive sound quality and very balanced. Thanks Caleb!

One thing i hav loved about Q990b is that finally the previous cloth in Q950 is now out. This is a new beast and with 11.1.4 channels i cant help but love it

I thought I recognized the room. Your review on the Andrew Jones Pioneer Elite setup is why I purchased it. Although I opted for the VSX LX-503 and dual SVS PB1000s to go with it. Thanks! We absolutely love the Pioneer setup.

Sorry Caleb, But that connected hookup with the Rear Speakers and that cheapo power strip was the highlight of this review. FREAKIN' HILARIOUS!!!

Bought this on sale 3 days ago and I'm impressed with it, I can finally watch my shows without subtitles and feel where all the sounds are coming from. Thanks for the review, it helped me pull the trigger on this!😁

Thank you Caleb for your excellent explanation of the Sound bar with your academic English. This encourages me to make my decision to buy Q990 B after much of the confusion,.

It's on sale right now and for black friday, which makes it worth it. Because all the other high end alternative are more expensive, and don't come with a subwoofer, so you need to fork a lot more money. I think in the high end soundbar systems, it's by far the best for quality price ratio.

Got this soundbar the other day and I have to say ,it's amazing no issues with connection drops , just an amazing sound , got a nice price on it too. If you're thinking bout buying it ,,,don't ...just do it

Great review, been waiting for you guys showcase this system. This is on my next list of sounbar to get after my Vizio M- series goes kaput.

I have the q990b for a few months now. I have tested many settings. The best settings are to enable Adaptive sound, enable spacefit, enable active voice enhancement (not the voice improvement setting) and enable improve low tones. Up the treble a bit and also the rear speakers. This gave me the best sound no matter what content. This systems does really shine with high end quality audio.

I solved the disconnect issue with my surround/backspeakers. My Asus ET12 router uses a combined 2.4+5GHz network. Splitting them into two seperate networks (different names, too) and only connecting to the 2.4GHz with the soundbar removed all my issues. 🙂 Awesome soundbar!

@Fencek Hi! I'm sorry, but the Orbi RBR750 doesn't support separation. There is a heavy handed work around, in that you can turn down the transmit power on the 5ghz to 25% while 2.4 remains at 100%, and make sure the router is far enough from the soundbar to not autoconnect to the 5ghz, but I'm not sure if that will fix the issues. If it first connects properly, you *-may-* even be able to return the 5ghz to full power later without any trouble, as they tend to remember the given settings. You can find it in advanced settings, under wireless settings somewhere.

Good review, I recently bought this soundbar combined with the Samsung 75QN95B (have a very bright living room). I was looking for a new AV Receiver to combine with my KEF 7.1 speaker system. Prices are incredibly steep for AV Receivers currently and a lot is out of stock. So I dove into the Soundbar world. And decided on this soundbar. I haven't had any regrets for even one second. I am used to having great cinema sound in my living room and this soundbar does it all. Incredible Dolby atmos sound, room filling. You're in a sound bubble. Even the Bass is up there. Not as good as the one I had. But I am more than satisfied with it. Furthermore all the hassle of setting the soundsystem up is gone. This is really easy. Even my wife is happy with it now! I agree with the cables being too short. But you can get longer cables that fit everywhere online for very low prices.

In an anechoic space, -3 bass and +1 treble seems to be the most neutral. Give it a go from there and adjust to taste. The thing I love about this soundbar is that it doesnt have the honkiness and hollowness that most sound bars exhibit. It rivals a Wharfedale Diamond 12.2 or Polk R200 2 channel setup, just not soundstage wise. Remember, these soundbars do not like absorbtion on their side wall first reflection points unlike most 2 channel setups, so keep that in mind. Keep the soundbar at the edge of cabinet its on, so no nasty reflections off that cabinet. Being on ear level is another crucial thing, treat it like you would with a 2 channel setup. Absorbing floor bounce with a thick carpet is also recommended but avoid absorbing side walls and ceiling, especially the parts where sound bounces off. Hope this helps owners trying to get good sound out of this spectacular bar.

hi there,what make FLOOR STAND you use in your video? i order my samsung q990 today,will pick up tomorrow,thanks for nice and high quoality review.

Thanks for another great review. I have one pending question. Placement of the bar. I am building a new home and entertainment system. I want to build the tv so that it is flush with the wall. Kind of inside the wall and place the sound bar below it too encapsulated into the wall flush. But it seems that this sound bar has side speakers on both sides plus needs onto so speakers fire to ceiling. The tv itself will be on a mount that can extend out so I can check wires, re wire ect without much effort in moving the tv. I am just worried that this flush mount system would hinder the performance of the sound bar. I am getting older and always have trouble hearing voice in movies and tv. I am not really worried about perfect surround sound or all that other fancy new tech. But sure would like a full sounding movie without the struggle of hearing voices. Don't really know if this just poor quality tv speakers or not. Do you think the front of this soundbar sitting flush in a wall, will kill the whole point of this system? Thanks

I bought q930b a week ago on sale for $770. I thought I made a mistake for not buying q990 but comments here suggests they both sounds almost the same . Q930 sounds pretty dam good. Review of Q930b would be great .

how is the performance of regular 5.1 tracks on DVDs? or going higher, a DTS MA track? is it just as spectacular? or are Atmos tracks it's only niche?

If this Q-Symphony feature is the only issue between the Samsung HW-Q990B soundbar and the LG 65 G3 TV, it is still worth buying the Samsung HW-Q990B soundbar even if you do not have the Q-Symphony feature for the LG 65 G3 TV.

Only 3 drivers in each rear speakers... not dipole. An awesome system at $1300 CA (incl tax) in Apr 2023. Could've gotten the Marantz Cinema 70s + Jamo 803 (5 piece package) + Atmos up speaker additions for about the same. But no speaker cables to manage... keeps my wife happy. If I'm renovating my media room, I would've gone the traditional amp/speaker route, but the soundbar keeps things simple and allows us to keep our modest stereo setup as is. The sanding is good enough for casual 2-channel listening, but for critical stuff, we go back to the ol' stereo setup... best of both worlds.😊

What stands are people using for the rears in the Samsung setup?

It's only about €900 right now in the Netherlands. Honestly, I didn't think I would be able to get a high-end soundbar for less than €1500 or so, but... this is pretty damn affordable right now. Absolutely no other soundbar even comes close to competing since other ones that can compare are at least €1500+. The Bose 900 can be gotten for about €600 after cashback, but... it also requires a €700 subwoofer and €300 speakers, so total price is actually over €1600 to get something of similar quality (and going by reviews, still slightly outdone by this Samsung one). I would prefer it it was a tiny bit smaller, but I'll make do with having it slightly over the edge until I buy a new TV in a few years.

I settled for a q600b with swa9200 rear add on speakers. This is morr yhan rnough for a sitting room setup as im not bothered about atmos, as the source content is too variable to make much difference in a small room. 5.1 is enough for me, but i am envious of this model. Great review 🙃

As a tech enthusiast, I follow, learn and appreciate all this tech that we have. As a Hisense QLED 65" owner, I politely decline the Massive price tag on this bar. It's double the price of my tv for god's sake 🤣

Awesome video. Can you also review the Q930 please

I went from a 7.1 system to the 990B. That's 6 wall mounted speakers and all the hassle with that and the esthetics was too much lol. The 990B blows my former system out of the water. The depth and width of the soundstage is amazing, even with non Atmos material the object placement is fantastic. There's no sense of where the speakers are. I'm hearing things in familiar movies I didn't know existed. I disagree with the cable management, that's my one pet peeve as the space it too tight. I'm using all the ports and I had to use a 90' for the eArc. Stiffer and/or braided jacket type cables are not great if shelf mounted as I'm doing. Wall mounted and they can hang down a bit. Samsung recommends the bar itself be mounted at least 2 inches below the panel so in this case it's too high. However I think for most people using it as shown here that's going to be tricky. The power cables should be 6ft IMO as one could just coil and wrap. For me I wall mounted the rears and I have outlets directly below each one so lucky. Amazon does have cords like this if needed and not expensive. I've had no connection issues at all and the app has been perfect as well. I don't use the remote or the display and use my phone for every. I highly recommend this system. It's fantastic and I can't see going back to a receiver based system. I'll be incorporating and additional sub as I have a killer older velodyne unit, as well as adding a bass transducer. It's easy and can be done with most any soundbar.

Interesting, how would that work though, how would the additional sub sync to the main bar?

What kind of cables are they? Are power cables universal? I presume they have different ends and/or ratings, no?

I'm glad I bit the bullet and just built a budget Atmos setup. Considering they make soundbars with surround speakers, they should just make some with actual wall mountable height speakers. I'm sure they could make _something_ wife approved.

Hi. Can you please advise on the details of the rear speaker stands?

What brand is the speaker stands you use for det small rear speakers?

Can you get this with just the bar and woofer? I don't have a place for the rear speakers.

Hi I live in Australia and just double checking if I'll be able to maunally turn up the centre speaker ONLY if I choose to do so? I've heard I may not be able to do this with the same soundbar in Australia.

Hi how we can find out if tge soundbar is playing Atmos sound? Thanks

How does this compare to the Sonos Arc and is the Arc still worth it at this point in 2022?

So which soundbar would one recommend for a room that's 3,7 meters high?

Worth selling my current setup for it..sonos arc, sub gen 3 with 2 sl's?

Hi doe the rear speakers atmos work without a samsung tv ?

I just bought this for my sister for $910 with workplace discount directly from Samsung. She really liked the Q950A i personally have in my apartment and when I told her about the sale on the Q990B, she told me to buy it right away. Really worth it at that price.

Help! I know ever room is different but do you mind providing me a base with settings for the different channels for a more immersive sound? Also EQ setting would be great! If it helps I’m in a square room with 9ft ceilings, only down side it that the seating and rear speakers are even against back wall. Also I have the 950A thank you!!!

if you have to chose between q990b and sony hta5000 with sw5 and rs5 surround. i am really confused between the two. what would you chose knowing that i own a sony tv x95j?

Would you recommend hdmi over optical input?

What speaker stands did you use?

Are the Height Speaker Stands for rear speakers included?

I got this little less than $1000 when converted from local currency and paired with Sony TV. The thing is loud and fills up the room. Also had 1-2 disconnected issue in last 2 months, but it automatically reconnect immediately. So did not bother much. The great thing about this is music also sounds fantastic.

The weakest aspect for this kind of device is mandatory wireless connection.. every single year the wireless spectrum get more crowded. At some point hiccups are going to be happening daily.

@@rudresh You don't that's exactly the problem.. there is a finite amount of channels and current devices broadcast in several frequencies.. yet the most important aspect is you WONT be able to dictate which of those devices are being used at your surrounding area.

I have a Sony A80K. Will there be issues if I match it up to the Samsung Q990B or Q990C

When i was choosing soundbar i didn't want to spend a lot but not totally cheap out. 990 is quite price in uk is between £990 to £1499. Luckily i found 930 which has 5 speakers less but i bought it for £589. And it's amazing. The only thing that missing is house where i can fire them up properly.

Ok you impressed me enough to go for it.

I think you have your rear surround speakers wrongly positioned. In the video, it appears the rear surround is placed on the right (with the side firing speaker facing inward vs outward) instead of left.

amazing review ! I was going to buy this system, but can you please advise which are those stands for the speakers? where can i buy them
