Got the Q990C and couldn't be happier, paired with the S95C its been fantastic.

I have the same setup! Is amazing

[@KK-ef1ow]

Q990C with S90C for me. Insanely good setup

[@R6ex]

Q990C + 85X90L. Sounds great! Bassheads will be happier with either the Klipsch 1200 or Nakamichi Dragon though. Sony BRAVIA Theatre Quad offers better surround and sound stage. None of the later beats the Q990C for value at almost similar performance though.

[@walter2695]

Best bang for your buck has to go to the Samsung. I have the older version of it and still love it. Beefy sounding and best priced for what you get. Mine is still going strong after 3 years. And with dolby vison pass through its awesome to connect devices to it and not get anything watered down.

Just bought the Klipsch Flexus Core 200. Got it open boxed, and it was mislabeled. So I got it brand new, for $300. It's just blowing my mind how good the sound is. I'm not even bothering getting the sub or other speakers. Thank you for your recommendation!

[@ErwalDeeas]

Just gonna put this out here but I went from a top end Sony soundbar to a pair of Klipsch The Nines + a Klipsch sub. Night and day difference and highly recommend it.

[@shinx115]

I have all of the top Sony sound bars speakers and sub and it's been great, however sound bars are often advertised as being as good as it gets and there is a whole other level once you get into buying individual speakers. Klipsch stuff I've bought has always been impressive and the heritage series is great.

[@ErwalDeeas]

@@shinx115 I loved my HT-ST5000 but The Nines are fuller and warmer. They fill up the room and I'll never go back.

[@MWM1293]

Cool story bro

[@curtisbme]

Going from any soundbar to larger, separate speakers with a sub is going to sound much better. Has nothing to do with the soundbar you had or the brand of speakers you went to. This is not news, it is "no shit" information. Soundbars were never about getting the best sound, it is about getting the best sound possible for only having 'one' speaker at the TV.

[@shinx115]

@curtisbme that's what I was getting at. It's a whole step up and it's own separate beast for sure.

[@chefjefe68]

Hi Caleb, I totally agree with you on the Yamaha CR20-A. When I bought my mom a new TV (Sony X85K), I got her the CR20-A and hooked it up via eARC. I was very impressed with how it sounds: clear dialog, great sound, and even some base. Even my mom could hear the difference.

[@jakedavis2838]

I own the Klipsch Flexus Core 200, and I agree with your assessment. Excellent bass, and clarity.

[@armjcv]

will you choose Flexus Core 200 over bose 600 or sonos beam 2?

[@jakedavis2838]

@ I haven’t heard either of those, but I chose Klipsch because I like the brand and also because they have a reputation for creating good sound.

[@halfclappertopchedda]

I have the Bose 900 for a few years back. I cannot believe how wonderful it sounds. No sub. No surround speakers. I got mine for 799. I feel it's a great bar for that price! You pay for the Bose name but in my opinion it is worth it!

[@chriszeedyk]

I just recently picked up a Certified Refurbished Vizio M512a-H6 and it sounds great! It pairs nicely with my 77" LG G4 🙌

[@karlhungus545]

I'm still using my Vizio SB3651 soundbar that I bought 10 years ago for $149 CAD ($110 USD). I was shocked how good the sound and bass were when I bought it, and it still sounds just as good. Great purchase. I have a 65" Hisense U88N TV and the sound on that is really excellent...for a TV, but it's no soundbar. I have a Yamaha SR-C30A in the bedroom (that I received as a gift), and it does sound good, but it doesn't compete with the much cheaper Vizio. Unfortunately, Vizio is almost non-existent here in Canada now, so NOT readily available at all.

I just upgraded my SB3651-F6 with the M512a-H6 and I'm disappointed with it. There's barely any bass to it compared to the SB3651. On the M512, I have all the settings set to mid level with the bass/subwoofer levels set to max. I also notice that on the SB3651 the comfortable volume level for me is at 8 whereas the M512 I have to set it to 30 for the same level. I even upgraded the M512's firmware to no avail. I wished I went with the Vizio M51ax-J6 model instead.

Got a Samsung Q930D few days ago to pair it up with a Samsung S90D OLED TV that I also recently bought. I'm so pleased and happy, especially since I never owned a soundbar before. Unfortunately Q990D was somewhat out of my budget and I found the Q930D at a very good discount. I am enjoying it a lot whether its streaming video, listening to music or playing on my PS5. The whole set up was very easy which pleased me even more.

[@omarbargoti3832]

I want to highlight that I went from the ARC Ultra, ERA300 rears, dual subs to a used open box Samsung Q990C. If you’re not going the whole home route get the Samsung, it’s so much more fun to use, way more convincing, and just better all around.

[@great100m]

old ears & damaged hearing makes TV dialog difficult for me. I was looking for a soundbar to improve dialog from a Sam Frame TV over our fireplace and evaluated most in this video. Then I called tech support from a major internet retailer and he asked me why didn't I just buy a Bose TV bar for a couple of hundred bucks. I did and it works very well for what I use it for - dialog.

[@1986mumbles]

This might sound like a dumb question, but do you need a TV for this? Or would it also work with just my phone and/or Macbook? I am primarily interested in listening to music with friends in a surround sound type set up. I would get additional speakers as well. I would only occasionally use it with my TV since I dont watch much TV. During moments where I wanted to listen to music I would prefer to have the TV off.

[@dc345601]

I’m sort of stuck between the Arc Ultra with the 300s or going with the Samsung 990D. I currently have a Beam with a Gen 3 sub. The attraction to the Samsung is the audio pass through which will give my old tv more life for a while since it only supports ARC right now. I’m seriously considering the Samsung S90D but possibly closer to the Super Bowl unless I see a stellar deal this week. I appreciate any thoughts or comments.

[@venkatesh760]

I was tossing up between the Sonos ultra and the 990d as an upgrade to an older Sony sound bar, surrounds and sub. Was gonna just try the arc ultra alone and see as reviews sound amazing. I didn't wanna get stuck being disappointed though needing to drop double the cash for surrounds and maybe woofer. Went the 990d in the end and really happy. Sound is great, sub deep and the options to adjust the voice and centre channel on the 990d is great. Light years better than my old Sony. Even if the Sonos sounded better, I can't imagine it would be worth the extra cash. Get the 990d.

It's interesting that a certain mythical creature didn't get a notable mention in..... was the long-term findings for the dragon no good? Has the dragon been slayed by various competitors??

[@Beer_Dad1975]

I know it has its fans, but the Dragon just doesn't make a lot of sense to me - it's as expensive, or more so depending on how you configure it, as a really decent AV receiver setup that will out-perform any sound bar setup, but is still as bulky and intrusive as the AVR option. I think compared to any of the "high end" sound bar options on this list, it's just got much more limited market appeal - and probably for the level of ugly it introduces to your living space, it's just not got the performance to forgive it.

[@fonkenful]

@@Beer_Dad1975And let’s not forget that several well known reviewers had major critiques of it not delivering anywhere near the originally promised performance, and a level of user interface that might have been groundbreaking a decade ago.

There are some great options here! I always wonder if it is better to stick with my pretty good AVR that doesn’t have Atmos or to move to a soundbar-like solution that has Atmos? I hesitate to replace with a new AVR because I don’t want wires going to my rear or side surrounds.

[@Beer_Dad1975]

Atmos sounds significantly different on a good setup (IMO better, but some people don't like it) than Dolby 5.1 - and the difference between Atmos and 2.0 stereo is night and day. I'd say see if you can get a demo of it somewhere - and make sure they put an Atmos movie on, not one of the crazy demo reels that don't actually tell you anything about what you think of the effects in a real watching scenario. As you note, the real advantage of a soundbar setup like Sonos etc is the wireless system that makes it less intrusive into living spaces.

[@LeezahB]

@@Beer_Dad1975 My system now is 5.1 (not 2.1). I am using the speakers above on the wall behind me as my side surrounds (the speakers were already wired in the wall when I moved here). It actually sounds pretty good (mostly due to my front surrounds speakers being amazing), but I sometimes wonder how much I am missing with no Atmos!?🙂

[@Beer_Dad1975]

@@LeezahB I can only compare to my sisters setup, which is an aging but at the time top of the line Yamaha 5.1 AVR with a esoteric, but very good set of also quite old speakers attached to it including a pretty good sub. - it was I always thought a very good setup - but she'd also had it wired into the house so there were no issues with cables. It was I always thought an amazing setup for movies compared to what I had at the time she got it. Eventually I assembled a Sonos Arc, 2 Era 300 surrounds, and 2 Sub Gen 3's for our TV room- and it is definitely significantly more immersive for content which supports Atmos than her system - plus the wife doesn't totally hate it - well she doesn't like the Era 300's up on the back wall, but she has seemingly come to accept it. If I could get away with an AVR Atmos setup, I would - and we do have a 3rd room that I'm planning on turning into a home theatre when (if) the kids leave - and I'll put an AVR system in there for sure. Anyway - best thing to do is to get a demo and see if you think the expense is justified.

Is the Bose smart sound bar compatible with the 300 subwoofer

I think it would be great if someone made a soundbar that could double as a center channel in a more traditional surround system if you upgraded later on. If Sony can do it with their TV speakers, then, surely, someone can do it with their sound bars. The center channel in my 5.1 system is great, but it's quite bulky and certainly could not fit under a TV.

Bang and Olufsen’s Theatre has this idea. It’s actually impressive how many older speakers of theirs they support, and you can also pair it with random in-walls or in-ceilings. Just a shame it costs the same as a small car.

The Roku does that. However it only works with the Roku satellites and sub so it’s like a HTIB type deal.

Anyone got any recommendations for a small-ish under monitor soundbar/speakers for gaming?

[@vahes647]

How about Bluesound soundbar

The Vizio SV510M-0806 soundbar BF price is $169.99 at BB. That's $30 cheaper than Amazon.

Dude side note. I recently came across this channel but the furniture and stagings used to display these tv's and speakers are insane. On the speaker note im still rocking a Bose cinemate 2.1 which has decent sound for being a 10 year old unit, but the mids are so so. Fun fact, if someone has the money to buy Bose, please do ur reaserch and buy something else as ive found bose is extrmemly over priced for what they offer. Dont get me wrong , the sound is good to great, but for the money u can definitely get something less mainstream that allows u to scale up ur sound. Im not an acoustics guy and just trust my ears but if u can afford a Bose you can probably afford a Harmon Kardon or something.

Polk MagniFi Mini AX currently $299 from $550 easily outperforms anything under $500
