Samsung Q-Series soundbars: The ultimate home-cinema set-up

Samsung

If you are after a sound system that doesn’t clutter your living space, look no further than Samsung’s new 2023 Q-Series range. Samsung’s soundbars are among the most advanced around, with an array of high-end features that put you right in the heart of the action. And when paired with a Samsung TV, they unleash even more unique and exclusive features to create the most cinematic sound around.

Ready to experience 3D cinematic surround sound like never before?

A cinematic double act

Like all good movie heroes, Samsung’s Q-Series soundbars has a sidekick, and in this case it’s Samsung’s 2022/23 range of TVs.

Usually when you connect a TV with a soundbar, sound from the TV automatically switches off. But Samsung have changed the game in sound innovation. Now when you pair a Samsung TV and soundbar you can hear cinematic sound from both devices. Samsung’s Q-Series soundbars work in harmony with Samsung’s TVs. Pair one with a compatible 2022/23 Samsung TV*, and a feature called Q-Symphony delivers sound from both the soundbar and the TV’s built-in speakers in perfect harmony, giving you considerably more sonic oomph, without any complicated set-up. 

For example, when your pair together Samsung’s QN900C & the Q990C soundbar, you will hear sound from 34 speakers as opposed to 22 delivered by the soundbar alone. Pretty epic for a movie night, right? 

Samsung’s Q990C soundbar also boasts their most powerful subwoofer – an 8-inch monster – for room-filling bass. The subwoofer features Acoustic Lens technology, which amplifies the bass to produce audio power and intensity just like you would get at the movies. Alongside a multitude of speakers including wireless rear speakers delivering tremendous 11.1.4 channel sound, you won’t get this audio quality anywhere else in the range.

Cable-free surround sound by Wireless Dolby Atmos

Wireless Dolby Atmos is a key feature of Samsung’s Q-Series soundbars. This technology maximises the use of both the TV & soundbar's speakers to deliver pin point sound effects within the room. Forget about the messy cables as products work together wirelessly, so sit back and enjoy cinematic 3D surround sound with upfiring speakers for an elevated entertainment experience.

You might think that because a soundbar is much more compact in size than a surround sound system, its sound quality isn’t up to par. But you’d be wrong. Samsung’s Q800C packs an incredible 11 speakers into its sleek frame, complete with side-firing and up-firing speakers delivering 5.1.2 channel sound. Bring your entertainment to life with Samsung’s Q800C soundbar, perfectly tuned by the award-winning Californian Audio Lab.

With SpaceFit Sound Pro technology you’ll be sure to hear the best sound quality no matter your room size. The built-in microphone inside the soundbar analyses the rooms acoustics and tweaks the equalisation automatically, delivering the best sound possible at all times. This makes Samsung’s Q800C soundbar the perfect solution for those looking to enhance their cinematic experience, whether that be in a crowded family lounge or cosy living space.
