Shoutout to Top Choice Electronics, the vendor, legit!
I’m coming from a 2.1 Samsung bar with woofer that I thought sounded ok – miles ahead of TV speakers. And I had no idea I could get this kind of sound out of a soundbar setup…. it’s theater quality
To get the full experience, you do need to make sure everything is connected properly. My TV doesn’t have eARC for example, so I can’t connect to the TV if I want Atmos. I have a PC connected with a RTX3060. HDMI from GPU to the bar, then bar to the HDMI ARC port (though at this point I don’t think that bit matters). Downloaded the Dolby app for Windows, it detected my setup. Ran a few tests from the app and it’s working as it should out of the box. The speakers all auto connected, so I didn’t have to fiddle around with that which was nice. Downloaded Samsung SmartThings app and everything was controlled from my phone virtually instantly.
I’ve played some 7.1 Atmos files and it’s working incredibly well. Netflix and Amazon Prime app are working in surround sound off the PC. So do other apps. YouTube and Spotify however are not, though YouTube should (?)… Still working on that one. But overall a huge win for Samsung!
Last note and I knew this coming into it, my ceiling is vaulted and sloped, so I’m not getting the best Atmos experience at this time. But still worth every penny! A flat ceiling is recommended for the Atmos firing speakers to bounce the sound off the ceiling and in your direction.
People saying the bass isn’t thumpy enough, I’m honestly not sure what they’re trying to get out of a movie. The overall crispness of the sound is complemented perfectly by the bass in my opinion.
At 30% volume, it’s loud! I turned it up to 80% and I was yelling at someone 4ft away from me – and the sound at 80% was just as crisp as 10%.

I bought this to pair with my Samsung TV for the Q Symphony technology. This thing is heavy. It feels like a solid piece of equipment. My TV speakers were great, I didn’t need this but I said what the heck, why not. Glad I did. There is something about bass that is just a game changer. It works great with my PS5 and Xbox. Putting this together is simple. You literally plug it all in and the second I turned on my tv, I didn’t even have touch a thing it just all connected and started pumping out the sound. Very happy with the purchase

So far after 5 months I adore the Q990C and has completely changed my perception of soundbars and what they can do. Decided to give my home theater system a streamlined update after my old plasma TV died (replaced with a Samsung OLED S95C) and wanted a neat setup. As an audiophile, I feel soundbars have come a long way and this one sounds almost as good, and in ways better, as my trusty 5.1 receiver and speakers (Yamaha receiver, Bowers and Wilkins speakers) this has replaced. I have a large open concept living room/kitchen area with vaulted ceilings, and I can confidently say, the Q990C can fill the entire space with immersive sound. It lacks some of the punch, richness, and full body sound that my old 5.1 system had, but improves on it with the surround sound bubble with Dolby Atmos and the latest DTS:X decoding, and a very sleek, clean design. Overall, the Q990C sounds great for movies, TV, and games and has a very clear and crisp sound. The dedicated, powerful center channel definitely helps this soundbar have excellent speech and dialogue performance when watching content, while the 3-way rear surrounds provide a strong (wireless and easily placed) true surround sound immersion. The main bar is crisp and punchy, this side of a Nakamichi Dragon, while maintaining a decently slim profile, though can sound a bit clinical and lacks some warmth. The only place where this system seems to really fall short is with the wireless subwoofer. For the power that the rest of the system puts out, the sub simply doesn’t seem to have enough power and oomph to keep up, making the whole system sound a bit lean for the space I have it in. Had they gone with 2 subs, or simply a larger single sub, this would dramatically improve the sound to my ears and make this a hesitation free recommendation. Music just sounds flat and uninspiring listening to this soundbar, so I will stick to my dedicated amp and 2.1 setup I have for listening to music, granted that I’m comparing a soundbar to a set of massive Bowers and Wilkins 802Ds and an ASW-2500 sub. But for someone looking for 1 simple system to do it all, the Q990C is hard to beat, especially given the price vs a component system (or a Dragon). Do I miss some qualities of my old custom setup? Sure I do, but the packaging of this soundbar, updated codecs, combined with the immersive Atmos sound, I’m do not regret switching. It’s simply a very clean and good sounding solution for anyone looking for full surround immersion in an easy to setup system with seamless connectivity (eARC & Q-Symphony), and overall impressive for its size sound footprint. A definite must buy for a one size fits all solution. Simply fantastic!

I’m technically reviewing the Q990D (2024 model) as that is the model I received although I ordered the Q990C (2023 model). However, from all the research I did, they are very comparable in sound and features and basically identical in look and dimensions. First off, I recommend downloading the Smart Things app to aid in install and configuration. Set up itself is relatively simple, only power cords (no bricks) and an hdmi cable. All components sync wirelessy and I have it hooked up through ARC hdmi port on a 6 year old 55″ Samsung tv which immediately recognized the soundbar system. Movie experience is amazing, very immersive and enough lows from the sub to give the boom when needed and you can easily adjust for more/less on the remote. There are four sound modes, three which utilize all the speakers and one standard mode that is just front facing using the soundbar and the sub. Listening to music is also very balanced and punchy and BT connection to phone is basically no different than pairing from any other portable BT speaker. Overall, the system is versatile, not too big, and volume is robust even at low levels. Prices seem to fluctuate so you shouldn’t be paying MSRP making it a great value. I also have higher end component systems that go bigger but you simply can’t beat the convenience of wireless speaker pairing of rears and the sub without giving up sound quality. Side note – if you don’t want to use the satelite speakers in the rear configuration, it can be positioned and calibrated for front R/L speakers along with the soundbar creating more front spatial sound design.
