Really like your reviews. You cover the audiophile side as well as the general consumer and how each may or may not like that product. Great job once again.

I bought this setup after hearing it in a store and being very impressed. At home it just sounds incredible.

I got the SoundBar for $1,200 bundled with my TV and it's my First Sound Bar ever.. I'm sure I'll love it since I haven't had one before!

I bought it and I am still impressed. No cutting issues ever

Well done u didn't run ur mouth to much very informative and hooked us up with a great demo. Finally someone that isn't just getting 15 min of fame. My hats off to u cuz.

I had that same connection issue with my surround speakers for my sound bar as well. You have to change your WiFi frequency channel. Just contact your internet provider to do it. Once I did that I had no issues.

Great review! Thank you. I would like more focus on dialogue when reviewing soundbars and surround sound in general.

I chose the Nakimachi 9.2.4. Sound bar system. Its amazing! I have no regrets on buying the Nakimachi over the Q90R. The Q90R is impressive especially that huge front bar but I wanted a more immersive sound all around you and the Nakimachi gives that to you. Two two 10 inch subs is powerful but not overwhelming. You can’t really tell where the sub sound is coming from since it’s from both sides. The four rear and side speakers 🔊 🔊 🔊 🔊 can create that illusion of sound all around you. My friend has the Q90R and I’m kind if jealous I can’t have both. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 still no regrets.

I have this system with a Q90R 65" and it's great when you have a 4k blu ray with Atmos, but you don't notice much with standard 5.1 content on Netflix or other streaming sites. Though I can say it is much clearer than standard tv speakers in every situation. I never turn my tv over volume 25, and it goes up to 100. I can't imagine what that sounds like.

I cracked, I found it sold for 999€ instead of 1500€, I couldn't resist! What a sound, I am absolutely conquered by my purchase, everything works perfectly! It changes me from my tiny 2.1 samsung sound bar that I had before. Santa Claus came a bit late, but I don't blame him too much... :D

Exchanged the Sony St-5000 i recently purchased for this new Samsung unit. This was dont yesterday and with the short amount of time ive had to play with it ive been extremely impressed. The Sony st-5000 was a great soundbar but at my place I was having a very hard time hearing the voices come in clearly. With this new unit and the additional back speakers I'm not having this same issue. The main center bar is crisp, loud and clear. im excited to continue messing with the settings of the soundbar system as im impressed for only having it in use for a day thus far. So far this thing is a beast!

Thank you Shane for the review! The return of the "crackle monster" as I call it. This is the same problem I had with the HW-K950, except the HW-K950 did it on ALL sources, including bluray. And if what you were listening to on the HW-K950 just so happened to be in DTS (which most of my blurays are), it paired down the audio signal to 2.0 stereo!!! Even after the firmware update, which was supposed to bump everything to 5.1 at least, it never worked. The crackle thing is still a bit worrisome, even if it only effects streaming content. It doesn't sound like Samsung has worked out all of the bugs of a surround soundbar system yet. Their second attempt is better, but I think I'm going to hold off to see if they can get it totally right on a possible third attempt. Thanks again for the review! You just saved me a good chunk of change (spare change)! vgv

Nakamichi Shockwafe 9.2.4 SSE is the best, IMO. It comes with 2 subs and 4 surround sound speakers, and is 1000w rated. It is badass

I've never had those connection issue and I've had mine for 7 months. Has to be interferce like you said. I love this sound bar system. Decent price and no hassles.

The Q90R is basically Harmon / Kardon, just like Transformers, robots in disguise. You should review the Nakamichi Shockwafe Ultra 9.2.4Ch 1000W Dolby Atmos Soundbar

Picked this up on a sale for 850 bucks. Gets here next week. Can’t wait!

Wow I am thoroughly surprised by how far sound bars have come! They are no longer a gimmick or stereo sounding! The addition of Atmos in the rear speakers is much appreciated. Strange how the sound kept cutting out though!

This is the most honest review video I've seen on KZfaq on this same product for that reason I subscribe only to your channel thank you, I was looking to upgrade my Logitech z906 there's a pros and cons to everything product out there, I was looking for a soundbar or speakers that you get that Heights speaker sound from the roof but thanks to your review, what put me off about the SAMSUNG Q90R Soundbar is the bass No Bass hardly bass don't get me wrong I do want speakers to just sound clear, but also I want bass also when you're watching and listening to gunshots in films you want power to hear that thunder bass thanks a lot you save me so money not purchasing this product, I've had so many different surround speakers in the past over the years so I know what I'm looking for I'm going to stick with my Logitech z906 for now because of the base and power and loudness until I see something new that comes on the market where I get the roof sound speakers sound I'm going to keep my Logitech. The only thing that disappoint me about the SAMSUNG Q90R Soundbar is the lack of bass, you do get the roof sound with the SAMSUNG Q90R Soundbar but the bass is not really there for me so I will give it a miss for that reason!

Great review as usual I really appreciate all the in depth critiques that you do it builds trust in your viewers which I very much appreciate. Keep it up be safe/healthy.

the only thing missing in the video is playing movies and you giving your thoughts on those scenes like you did with other sounders, other then that good review

I was settled on this speakers once I tested them out. You have to hear it in person. They sound really really good. But that "cutting in and out" is giving me second thoughts. Good review

I have to recommend the Definitive Technology Studio Advance or the older W studio(W studio had HDMI 1.4 the advance has 2.0 otherwise mostly the same) sound bar. They don’t support Atmos or DTS X but the sound quality is superior to many sound bars I’ve tried. The sub woofer is the star of the set up. It can get real low but is not bloated like most sound bar subs. I would love to see you review one to hear what you think.

Please do a review of sonos arc with surrounds and sub comparing hw-Q90R

Never going back to sound-bar/HTIB again.happy with my 3.1 HT setup.

I have the N950, which is almost identical, in an area with weak WiFi reception and never had any rear speaker dropouts until I put a Netgear Orbi in the room next to it. Now I get constant dropouts. So thanks for the tip. Now we just need a solution.

Which soundbar just generally sounds good? Meaning for music, gaming, in general watching videos like KZfaq, etc. I won't be watching DTS/Dolby Atmos films all the time so I at least want a soundbar that can do the other things good too since I will spend more time with those media.

Where do you get the demo discs and why don't they sell them in stores? A disc should be in the box when you buy one of these things.

Do the Nakamichi Shockwafe Pro 7.1.4 Pleeeeaassse I trust your opinion Shane!

The “break down” in blue tooth makes this a “no sale!” Great review though!! Larry

The wireless rear/sub disconnection issue was present on both units I tried. Firmware update 1008 fixed it for me. The only other issue I have is the audio sync adjustment only goes up in positive ms increments, not negative. It’s not a fault of the soundbar per se but paired with an Xbox One X there is very noticeable audio and lip sync delay with bitstream audio (required for Dolby Atmos) that can’t be adjusted for.

Brother your comments are true. There is a truth in your message. Thank you

Still got my old K950. Best advice for disconnecting sub and rear speakers/ Bluetooth problems is to get some ferrite rings for all power cords. Best update you can have for that model atleast. For me, disconnecting problems have been a cut a least 70%

Please compare this to latest jbl 9.1. Thank you and appreciate so much

I agree with others please review Nakamichi shockwafe 9.2.4 sse.

They should make their swa-w700 subwoofer compatible with this soundbar.

Okay I understand it cutting out maybe that could be fixed in the future but the subwoofer bottoming out seriously. At this price point it's ridiculous. They could have made a replica of the Dayton audio sub-1200 for the soundbar and still make plenty of profit off the Soundbar.

Excellent review and an expected result. Certainly my next purchase.

I had a lot of trouble with my Samsung TV not able to use arc anymore.. I fixed if and now everything is back how it should be working.. I like it a lot.

no wonder that the rear disconnects. You updated the soundbar but you need to repeat procedure for the rears and sub with a different remote button press sequence. At least only show on video the soundbar being updated, samsung is not clear on this. I had some disconects but once i updated both soundbar and rears+subs its fine and glorious.

I currently have a Bose Soundbar 700 with no sub or surrounds, I can get a Samsung Q90R soundbar with all that included for about AU$110 more than the best price I can find on the just the Bose extra speakers. That's crazy, there's no way I would buy the Bose extras now, I really think I'm about to give the 700 to the kids and buy the Q90R.

You're the first dude I've watched who doesn't use Samsung Tv. Congratulations

JUST SUBSCRIBED! I just bought this soundbar last week and it's awesome. Still trying to figure a good movie to watch to get the best performance. I'm coming from a Klipsch soundbar. I been looking at the Nakamichi 9.2 ch soundbar but jumped the gun on the Samsung because it was available in my BestBuy and the Nakamichi wasn't. I still have 11 days to return the bar, but I'm really happy so far. I know the Nakamichi has 2 extra side speakers so it should sound better and more power at 1000w should sound louder, but I have to say I haven't put the Samsung Q90R soundbar over 25 which goes to 100, and I have an open floor plan. If you can please review the Nakamichi 9.2 ch soundbar to see the difference in your own opinion, as I've seen other KZfaqrs review them as well; Want to get more insight and you know what to look for. I've seen review on the Sennheiser AMBEO Soundbar, but at $2,500 is out of my range, but would like to know your opinion on this as well. Because from my research the (Samsung Q90R, Nakamichi 9.2, & the Sennheiser AMBEO Soundbar) are the best soundbars on the market to handle Atmos/DTSX.

Awwwww, so nice of you to publish this on my Birthday, is that a sign? And why oh why do I love when you open that fucking box cutter. I still want to rebuild my AV system, but the separates you just reviewed are so expensive, but seem oh so nooice!

Can u please tell me what were your EQ level settings for each speaker? Please and Thank u

At 5.1 input, only 3.1 output front speakers works, the side speakers not working has anyone the same problem?

great video helped me with my decision. can you do a review on the Bose 700 and all the 700 accessories???

The channel is called spare change but have the most expensive sound bar lol. We’re are the videos of soundbars that are a fair prices. I just want atmos and rear speakers under 700 bucks.

I need a Atmos demo disk so bad!!!!

I own this soundbar and it plays great,wanted to buy nakamichi,but not available in europe,and buy from the states is no option cause the import taxes are way too high in belgium.

I believe thz is one of d best reviews I hv come across... Keep up.... U got a subscriber

I see you got an awesome set of Golden-ear speakers... nice

which subwoofer hits better, Subwoofer Q90r or swa-w700?

The perfect review and the review people finally have been waiting for Samsung says this is suppose to get an eArch update.

mình vừa test trên kênh samsung q90r vs 1 cặp dalton group lại 1600w x2 mọi người cho đánh giá nha

Any updates about the promised earc firmware update?

Thanks for the review, I just bought one😁

Ten months later and it’s time to provide an updated review. All of these issues have been resolved.

Netflix & chill 👌😌 for some reason I want to watch the movie 300 with speakers like these.

You need to review the Nakamichi Shockwafe Ultra 9.2.4!

Can you please review the nakamichi 9.2 soundbar ?

How does it play DolbyA and DTSx through a Samsung tv like the Q9Fn? The Q9fn doesn't have eARC and doesn't support atmos, but yet they say this soundbar was made to pair with their QLED line?

hey, great video. i just got the Q90R soundbat - its great. I didn't even set it correctly yet. I'm using the soundbar only - the back speakers are not connected yet. My question - did the DTS x demo sound come with box? mine didn't. How do i set the sound correctly? tnx

100 % agree, this soundbar does not work. I finally had it all connected and realized the back speakers do not work, they keep getting disconnected and I had to call Samsung over 5 times and no one could not help Even when they were connected I could not hardly hear anything out of them. I ended up returning it You can get better deals with lesser money, if a company like Samsung does not meet their customers needs it does not deserve your hard earned money

Got mine last week very happy no problem so far.

Thank you so much the directions DO NOT provide info on how to pair the sub woofer. Very helpful

Please review the nakamichi shockwafe models....especially with dual subs.... Please please... need too know how it compares to the hw-q90r. Great review

just bought mine Q90R yesterday and I love it ! I was comparing this with the Sonos and the Bose but ended up getting the Samsung H K because I have a Samsung TV. It works amazing...please check it out !

Very clearly presented, no nonsense review ...thank you...!!.

Very sorry guys the senniheiser Ambeo just blows the competition away. The bottom line is U get what you pay for. It's a Beast .

Excellent video. On another subject, do you have plans to review or audition the new ‘Sennheiser Ambeo bar’? Thank you

The bass got crazy when you were showing the demo video, FYI I use jbl bar 2.1

Anybody know what"virtual on/off" actually do? Nothing in the manual about that.

😂 I heard the helicopter above! Oh wait it’s a KZfaq video 😂

reviews are clear and detailed

Having a hard time finding this soundbar as it was last years model. A friend who's a salesman said he would give me the 950T for about 1400 cad but I've read that its not as good. I found an open box q90r for 1200cad. Do you think that's a good deal still?

I also had connection issues with the n950, which I had to return. Such a shame since this sounded great for a soundbar. Samsungs software really lets this product down imo. Pretty poor effort from samsung to see that it's still having connection issues.

How's does this compare to the new JBL bar 9.1 soundbar? I heard great reviews for that thing.

How are the rear speakers powered? Battery? How long do they last? Are they rechargeable or replaceable?

if you change the wifi channel on your router that will fix the problem

I'm not sure if you'll see this but im having trouble updating is the soundbar doesn't read the usb.

Good review! (I’d change the background music because of the annoying, repetitive screams. Quite distracting).

Sill no eArc and it not HDMI 2.1 Q90R is obsolete. Waiting for 8K 120hz TV & Soundbar both with HMDI 2.1.

You do great reviews man!

Well theres still the vizio dolby amtos sound bar.

I currently have an old Dolby Digital EX AMP AND SEPARATE speakers. I want to upgrade to ATMOS but my wife isn’t keen on wires. I have always resisted sound bars but this looks very powerful. Am I going to be disappointed when I compare this to my old separate system?

great review shane. i'm still looking for that great soundbar. question about the side firing speakers, are those meant to bounce off the wall as well? not sure if i would get that effect due to my open living room configuration. i may still pick these up and give them a try.

Great review Shane. I have the vizio 5.1.2 and I seem to have the same problem where the audio cuts in and out when streaming for me I notice it happens when I use Netflix it doesn’t do it while using iTunes. I also have the Linksys velop tri band. And for some reason my Sony A8G won’t display my Apple TV 4K when hdmi is set to enhanced.

Excellent product range

The biggest issue with this soundbar is that for some reason samsung has not added the google assistance which means you cannot add it to your google home ecosystem. That for me really sucks. And the other thing is that there are many reports of connection issues with the individual units like subwoofer and rear speakers.

Fantastic Review. What is your view on the NAKA system twin 10 punch. ??

So what is the "correct way" to set up the surround speakers should the front and rear low speakers be around + 2 or lower and High speakers set to +4 or more ? Will the Atmos demo disk you use help with calibration ? By the way I have this soundbar with a QE75Q950R Screen and there is zero drop out on the wireless speakers so they have clearly fixed this issue.

many reviews have been talking about ground-shaking bass on the q90r ( 08:25 ), i've got mine since yesterday and tested 6 hours but i can get "acceptable at best" when i crank up bass and subwoofer to the maximum which is +6. i know placement is a thing but i can barely feel it moving when laying my hand on it during VERY bass heavy hip hop music. newest firmware is on aswell. anyone got any suggestions? I'd kill for that boomy bloated bass right now tbh :D

So far the only bar solution getting the formats right is the Ambeo, but its insanely expensive.

Just got this sound system and the 65 inch q90r 4k qled tv bundled together with the no gap wall mount for just under 4300 at best buy! You save 200 for this sound system if you buy it with the tv and they have the tv 800 off rn too:)

My suggestion: if you like, use the subwoofer on max until you have a warranty. Samsung should have been calculated

Please review Nakamitchi 9.2 ch soundbar. It is quite powerful.

Hey mate love the video just wondering would it be better to mount the rear speakers higher up or head height is best positioning for them

Have you tried the Samsung Q950t soundbar (this years model) yet? If you have what do you think, is there much of a difference between the Q90r, and the Q950t? Can you properly place the audio, or I should say, do things happening on the left actually sound like it’s happening on the left? Or is it more generic, where you should hear things on the side, and things in the center, and is the bass good, or is it kind of weak?

Great videos. Can you please also review Nakamichi 7.1.2 system (or 7.2.4 or 9.2.4)?
