Don't waste your time

We got this connected and it worked about 2 hours then it went of. the only time the remote worked was on the intial setup, we had to keep unplugging the soundbar to get it to connect. We adjusted the t.v. speakers as instructed but it would only stay on for 2 or less hours at a time. I hope you dont make the same mistake I did and not read the reviews before purchase. More problems than its worth. If you purchase this then save your packaging because you will need it! Thank you Sam's Club for standing behind your customers.

Should have read the reviews

the soundbar worked great for three weeks. and now it will not even turn on. nothing i have tried has worked. i can tell that the subwoofer has power to it, but the primary bar, is nothing. if samsung is aware of this problem being experienced by multiple customers, then they need to act. i basically just threw my money away. i wish i would have read the reviews first. and now, i am not sure i will be buying any more samsung products. how can i trust the brand if the products simply stop powering on?

Great soundbar

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am very happy with this sound bar and the additional speaker. It was so well packaged and easy to set up. I got it to hook up to my computer right away with zero issues. It sounds amazing weather I'm using it when I watch movies or when I'm gaming. You will not regret getting this system.

Mighty Sound in a small package

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We absolutely love this soundbar! My husband and I were super impressed with the ease of connection and the intensity of the sound produced by this soundbar. I will be completely transparent and say that we loved it so much that we felt the need to upgrade our tv to match the quality of our new soundbar. It completely changed the feel of “movie night”! It was simple to connect via Bluetooth and easy to figure out the remote and settings. The bass provides a lot of BOOM also, which further enhanced the ”experience” of movies and music. I am a child of the 80s and truly thought that smaller package usually means smaller sound, this soundbar has proven my theory completely incorrect. This package provides ample sound and it sounds awesome!! We have had absolutely no problems with the soundbar and would recommend!! Love it!!

Super easy setup, great sound

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We already had another brand of soundboard in the main living area and I don't know how I ever listened to music without one, so I was thrilled to be able to get this one for the bedroom. However, when it arrived the subwoofer wouldn't fit in the small bedroom area where we have the TV. Now we could've mounted it on the wall with the included hardware but I found it easier to put the Samsung soundboard in the main living area where I could pair it with the Samsung TV. It was pretty much just plug and play. Total time from unboxing to music was under 15 minutes, even with assistance from Cannoli the wondercat. I've waited until we were able to listen to different types of sound to leave my review. I don't have a sound system and so the soundbar is my main way of listening to music. Once I adjusted the bass and treble settings, the sound was crisp and clear. The sound can be heard through the whole house, makes for fabulous early morning kitchen dance parties with the dogs and Taylor Swift. Husband is a huge football fan, so we also watched the game with on Sunday afternoon with excellent results. You really don't realize what you're missing until you plug it in and then you'll never want to be without one. On regular TV shows or movies, I pften have to leave the closed captioning on, and/or the volume up loud. If not, I can't make out some of the softer voices. But with the soundbar, voices are crisp and easy to hear. My older model from another company had an optional dancing light bar that would match the music, I do wish we had that here, it was a nice addition to the electric fireplace at night. But of course this way the bar can be take up less space, a plus for many people. Updated to add that you may need to turn Amazon music settings to use the ultra HD. It's even better now! Amazing, I've never heard music this clear.

Great value on this soundbar

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Samsung HW-B43C/ZA comes with its remote, batteries, soundbar, subwoofer, manual, brackets, power cables and the optical cable. The sound is great, it sounds much better than I expected since it is only two channels plus the subwoofer but because it does have Dolby Audio, the sound does travel around the room nicely. I like that I can connect to my computer or my TV with the optical cable that is included and I can also connect it to my mobile, laptop, computer or TV via Bluetooth. The controls are easy to get familiar with and the remote gives access to sound mode, subwoofer volume, tone control and more. It is easy to setup and easy to use. I really like it.
