i thought this was completely wireless but back speakers are wired. it also only has game mode and surround mode it would be nice if it had a movie option to choose from. over all,sounds amazing but i would recommend buying extra speaker wire to connect back speakers as the original wires are really kinda short. good system for the price.

Hello Thelma,<br /><br />Thank you for taking a few moments to review the Samsung HW-C47M Soundbar.<br /><br />Occasionally, customers have trouble hiding and running speaker wires from the front of the room (where their soundbar is) to the back of their room (where they have their rear speakers). The Rear Speaker Kit eliminates that hassle. Connect the rear speakers to its wireless module and place these three in the back of your room. One wire is required to connect each rear speaker to the wireless module. Then plug in the power cable to the module. The “wireless” convenience is in connecting your soundbar and any other speakers at the front of the room to the rear speakers through the wireless module, eliminating any clutter of long wires running the length of your room.<br /><br />If you need more help, Samsung is here for you. Please call us at 1-800-SAMSUNG, 8AM - 12AM EST (Ask for Soundbars), 7 days a week. Our Live Chat agents are also available by clicking on the ‘Support’ link on our website.<br /><br />~ Samsung Solutions

Great for the price but...

This was very easy to hook up and connect. I had it up and running within 10 minutes which included unpacking. My only complaint, which has nothing to do with the sound bar, is that one of the pictures makes it look like it comes with the Samsung smart remote. It doesn't, it only comes with the regular sound bar remote. This is not a deal breaker as the smart remote can be purchased separately for about $15. My Samsung remote used to control our old Samsung sound bar, it will not control the one. So, unless I want to have 3 remotes (TV, soundbar and fireTV) next to the couch I have to buy the new one.

Product stopped working

I have read reviews about the Samsung sound system/bars stop working after a week , but never in a million years did I believe the reviews . I purchased the sound bar and speakers on March 18th and yesterday for no apparent reason, it just stopped working. I am taking this back today, I pray that I do not and any problems returning this since I no longer have the original boxes.

Don't do it! It's junk!

The sound on the cheap Phillips TV isn't the greatest but it's far superior to this sound bar! Went from Vizio to this Samsung, due to price. BIG BIG mistake! We didn't hook up the subwoofer or the satellite speakers. The main sound bar quality is soooooo horrible, that it doesn't matter how good they might be.

This Samsung Surround System is nice

I just needed a soundbar for my bedroom because to me my tv wasn’t loud enough. I saw this deal that had more in it for $139 plus tax. It took me some time to learn the remote to change the rear speakers volume and the other options for listening. I bought a second remote from Amazon as a back up remote.

Not bad for the price

Its a great soundbar setup for the price that I got it for around $140. It might not have all the bells and whistles or the build quality of a premium soundbar setup and this one is mostly plastic ish but the sound and surround feel in great for the price.

We had been thinking about upgrading are then surround sound for quite some time and decided on this sound bar. Really impressed the quality of sound bar and subwoofer are awesome and loud! You can definitely adjust the strength of the subwoofer. Love to listen to my music while cleaning or cooking. Definitely recommend great buy.

Don’t be fooled by 5-star promotional comments!

Thumbs down! This subwoofer produces almost no sound! It only seems to kick on at around 50hz and then it cuts out again around 80hz and even then it’s barely heard. Even when all the settings are maxed out it’s much too quiet. The wireless rear speakers do work, but without a usable subwoofer the sound experience is pointless. I would equate it to plugging cheap computer speakers into your television. Yes it’s connected properly (blue link light on). I’ve tried having it connected through optic cable as well as through BT and the results are the same. NOT RECOMMENDED!!!
