It's Madden. It's Football. It's great as always. The new QB1 mode is fun. Even if you sim games and training, you can get in the 90's for your rating within 3 seasons. So it's not a slog at all.

Enjoy a surround sound experience with Dolby Atmos and skip the need for HDMI cables. Totally immerse yourself in astonishing 3D sound with 5 channels, 1 subwoofer and 2 up-firing channels working together to create a captivating audio experience. Synchronized audio using every speaker in compatible Samsung TV and soundbars. Sound calibrated for your space to perfection.

Did you update the firmware? Also there is a Samsung APP called SmartThings it is alot more robust than the remote. Once I used the App to adjust the sound....HOLY COW it sounds beautiful. I have vaulted cielings so we dont get full sound of the Atmos, but it is a clear soundbar and the Sub hits low without it being a muddy boomy sound. It compliments the sound bar vs over powers it. There are modes in the app like space fit and voice enhance that really help out our open concept living room/kitchen. Update the firmware and download the app. Hopefully you will like this set up after tweaking the EQ and other settings

Unimpressed
By JimB
Not as impressive as I hoped. Volume weak….bass weak….does not immerse our family room. Would only recommend in a small room (less than ~400 sqft). Also - struggles to keep sync/Bluetooth connected to multiple devices…so frustrating to use daily.

Download the Samsung SmartThings APP. There are a lot of settings you can change to your liking. It sounds fantastic. Also a firmware update through the APP wouldn't be a bad idea if you haven't updated it at all

When using the mic will I be able to hear myself? I have a cheaper headset right now and I don't get audio feedback while I'm talking. Also can I adjust the chat volume from others, separately from game audio?

I'm lookin to expand PS5 memory. So other than being "licensed by PS5" and having a blue LED instead of red. I don't see any difference with the 1 TB WDBAPZ0010BNC that is currently less expensive. Am I missing something?

Does bass sounds better than Bose qc35ii?

Honestly, go to a BB store and listen for yourself. It is completely subjective, every person hears differently. What may be perfect for you, will be too much or not enough to someone else. The app for these are great and does have an EQ you can adjust to your liking (and update firmware)

I have had the Sony Sony - 1000X since 2017 and use them almost daily. I am interested in the WH-1000XM3 but concerned about the number of reported pairs breaking. Is this a known design issue and if so is it being fixed. Thanks

The design is fine. Of the ones that are breaking, I just wonder how careless or rough people are with them. I read one review where they were upset they broke after falling asleep with them on. Well...duh. I have the XM2 and now the XM3, and both are in great shape, because I treat them as a $300 [air of headphones should be treated.

Can I use this to watch TV?

As long as your TV has Blutooth or a headphone jack (but you would prob. need a really long cable for that)

Have this system paired with a Sony 950G, set up just as instructed on manual. But when playing a 4k, reg. blu ray, the tv displays “unsupported audio signal, check device output” throughout the movie. Done everything possible, please help before I return

Another issue could be bad/poor HDMI cables. Don't use the ones they send with the devices, they are low grade. You can get monoprice premium certified HDMI cables from "the largest online retailer" for under $10/pair.

Does your tv have "ARC"? If so try to run HDMI from TV ARC to soundbar ARC and 4K player HDMI to "HDMI input" on sound bar. Set soundbar to ARC input. Reboot everything. Also double check that digital audio out signal form both TV and player are set to Bitstream. Otherwise Google knows all, or look on AVS forums (home theater forum) or post your question there.

Where does the sub-woofer need to sit? Can it sit in the back with the small speakers so there are not cables run all over the floor? If it has to sit in the front it seems you would have speaker wires running all over the place.

LFE or "Subs" are non directional . Normal speakers sound is directional and should be pointed towards the listening field. (which is why you can hear the low boom of car stereos in someone else's car, but cant really hear the actual music/lyrics) But Subs can honestly be placed anywhere, although alot of people will place them in corners to maximize the sound. But with a sub this size, it isn't necessary to do so.
