Should I Buy It?

  • Really happy with this purchase
This was my move from the built-in tv speakers to something external. HOLY COW. What a difference. I used to have to turn the tv speakers up to about 60 to hear quiet movie scenes, especially if the kids were playing in the background. The tv speakers seemed to not get any louder once you hit about 30. This soundbar is GREAT. The first movie I watched after I got it was Mad Max. The sound experience was incredible compared to what I had before. I used the included digital audio wire to connected directly to the TV (Sony LED tv from 2011) and there was no lag between the screen and the audio. The speaker turns on automatically when I turn on the tv. The onyl negative is that I have to use 2 different remotes now, since I can't control the audio on the tv. The volume must be controlled via the soundbar remote instead of the tv. This may be different for other tvs, and I suspect a Samsung TV would maybe allow this? I've also used the bluetooth for playing music through my phone via Spotify. It works great. Pairs easily, easy to change the input on the soundbar with the remote to bluetooth, and start playing. For my application, it sits on top of the mantle, and I love the minimalist look. It's not super noticeable, and is easy to put some decor around or in front. The setup was really easy. The wireless subwoofer connected right away, and I haven't had any issues with it. I have it positioned about 10 feet from the soundbar behind a recliner in a corner. I also like that you can control how much bass boost via the remote. This allows you to tune more or less subwoofer to the sound and you can really tell the difference when you change it. I'll probably be getting another one of these when I finish my basement. ... show more

  • Easy to use, easy to setup
I don’t watch tv every day, and when I do I watch I maybe an hour or so. I’m not looking for or expecting a sound system that will blow me away. I wanted something that takes up minima space, and had better clarity than TV speakers. I got this on sale for around $110, and for the price the A550 works well. It pairs with the sub so you can place the sub where you want it and you don’t need to worry about routing wires. It also pairs with your phone so you can play music from it. The soundbar looks clean and doesn’t have annoying lights. You can mount it on the wall if you want. It’s just a soundbar, so be aware it is not as β€œfull” sounding as having 5 physical speakers for 5.1. It can use HDMI ARC, HDMI, or optical and BT for other devices. Gripes: 1. When using Optical the sound cut out. Not sure why, but I switched to HDMI. 2. Installing updates requires downloading a file to a certain type of flash drive, and then inserting into the soundbar. There is instructions on it, but some of my flash drives were incompatible. ... show more

  • So far... GREAT !!!!
Delivered on time in great shape. Woofer paired automatically. Manually pair sound bar to T.v , there's no easy prompt to pair. Many great features. Usb, audio, bluetooth. Etc connect options. Full USB. Sound: sounds great hooked up to my Samsung 65' 7000 series 4k TV. I use the Dts-x sound mode . It's center channel/ speaker allows for great clear vocals (No more vol at 65 to hear it). Sounds great for music fills my whole house with great sounding music , bass could be better when comes to lows. It's missing that deep rumble of low bass, but overall sounds good. After all it's a cheaper option to improve your audio. Really like it for music . This is my 1st sound bar so I'm happy with it . I do wish display was bigger . As far as remote. It's decent (picture included). I use a universal. For what it's worth I stream Hulu sounds great in app. No cable. ... show more

  • Pretty good sound bar but no perfect
Been using it for two days and I am very happy with it. The sound is great and the bass is good enough. The only thing I am kind of disappointed is with the HDMI part. I have Nvidia Shield connected to my 4K TV (at 59hz) by using the HDMI ports. Considering that this sound bar has the HDMI port option I thought it will work as I hoped for, but no. Unfortunately the HDMI port that is used to connect from the sound bar to the TV can only handle 4K at 30Hz. I thought it was a faulty HDMI cable but when I tested them by connecting the Nvidia Shield directly to the TV, it worked as usual. There is no information about this on Samsung website or at Amazon, at the end I did a google search and that's how I find out. So if you want 4K 60Hz signal with this sound bar by using HDMI, then your are out of luck. Fortunately I can pair my Nvidia Shield with the sound bar by Bluetooth and it works great. Besides this caveat, the A650 is pretty simple to use and install (includes the mounting kit). Recommended! ... show more

  • Great product at a fair price, from a manufacture I trust
This is a great product, with premium features at a fair price for the value. I was looking to upgrade my older Yamaha Soundbar with an optical connection. A year ago we upgraded our Den TV to a new Samsung Q60 TV which has an HDMI ARC output option. It was important to me that the next Soundbar take advantage of the HDMI Arc output, and be fully integrated with our Samsung Q60. An additional attraction was the wireless Subwoofer offered in this package. The sound is outstanding in a medium-size room. The only issue I did have was an intermittent message that my TV gave that it couldn't communicate with the Soundbar on the HDMI Arc port, even enough sound contained to play. This issue was quickly resolved by checking for updates that the Sansung Site, sure enough, there was a firmware update for the soundbar. I download the firmware, unpacked the zip file, copied the file onto a formated (FAT) USB drive, and followed the install instructions on the Samsung site. It took less than a minute and no more communication messages. I would absolutely buy this product again. I'm thrilled with it. ... show more
