I am also using this and am happy with the performance. However, in order to use it in a general apartment environment, if a soft material is placed under the speaker to prevent vibration, it may not cause damage to the neighbors. It is a highly recommended performance for a detached house or an apartment with good soundproofing.

I have a Samsung QN90a TV and it doesn't support DTS sound. So I bought the HW-Q800b Samsung sound bar.

Although the sound system is connected to the TV with eark, I could not solve the problem. What should I do to play DTS sounds and get full performance from the sound bar?

When you go to audio settings > surround sound in the FireTV stick.. I recommend setting to Dolby Digital Plus instead of (Best Available). Whether the streaming stick is plugged directly into the TV or into the HDMI-in port of the Soundbar, I notice a delay in audio playback with Amazon Music, because it keeps switching between Stereo PCM and DD+. Better to have it always on DD+ output, since the soundbar can decode it. As for music or most stereo sources, Standard sound mode works fine. I use Adaptive for movies and TV. Surround for movies and TV with less processing. Bass and subwoofer offset are two diff settings. Sub I believe is even lower frequencies like 20-60hz.
