Too powerful
on July 5, 2013
Posted by: sonytheoneandonly
from CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
Exchanged this for a Norelco triple.
This Braun vibrates way too strong. My skin felt stripped for 2 days. It does shave fast and accurate.
The Norelco is not as powerful and it takes longer to shave, but I don't have that burn sensation.
My Best Buy number: 0085661684
My Best Buy number: 0085661684
What's great about it: clipper, fast shave
What's not so great: shaves too close
I would recommend this to a friend!

Best Future Proof Soundbar
By bheitmeyer
Pros:
7.1.2-channel multi-dimensional sound
Full Support of 4K 60p UHD and HDCP 2.2
46 speaker ATMOS / DTS:X
Continually Upgraded By Firmware
HDMI 2.0a Upgraded By Firmware
Future Proof
Cons:
Would Recommend Spending the extra Money for the Mount, Wireless adapter and Sub woofer - all add to the cost but worth it and still less than a receiver and Dolby ATMOS system

Does sound come from behind you? Or is this a gimmick?

Top of the line sound bar.
By Redhead
Went in to buy a Samsung sound bar & after talking to a very smart salesman, I ended up buying the top of the line LG bar & subwoofer. Your salesman was very knowledgeable about all the units. Cant go wrong with the LG, very good unit.

Can that menu on the front, where it says "TV ARC", "BT READY" be turned off while in use?

LG - 7.1-Channel Soundbar
By Jimbo from Austin, TX
This soundbar is awesome! Both sound clarity and subwoofer produce a great all around sound. The only issue I have and haven't figured out is there is a popping sound between movies and commercials (segments). It can be annoying sometimes but hopefully someone has an answer. Great system with overall watt output!

I blindfolded my wife to test the sound
By sonytheoneandonly from LA
I'm using this primarily for my new LG 1080 OLED TV. I experienced Dolby ATMOS in a local movie theater and I love the ceiling speakers and overall immersive sound. So, for home, I upgraded from a typical $300 sony 2.1 channel soundbar, which by the way, has been a great sound system for many years. This yamaha with subwoofer is $2,000. Here is what I experienced for $1,700 more:
- The bass is more evenly distributed, less echo and less chaotic rumble through my living room, more crisp.
- The voice is sharper, louder and more centered.
- Overall, a richer surround sound experience.
- However, you will not hear precise sounds above or behind you, as you would assume with the marketing of ATMOS.
I blindfolded my wife and tested both the sony soundbar and this Yamaha on the same scenes in Transformers 4. All I had to do was switch the HDMI cable on the soundbars back and forth. The Yamaha was no doubt, sound immersive and crisper. You feel the sound into your bones.
But is it worth the extra $1,700 over a typical soundbar?
I watch primarily DirecTV, since it has a superior HD compression method than over cable, and some BluRays. The richer sound is very noticeable on BluRays that have the words DOLBY ATMOS on the disc. For regular TV, like ESPN, I don't think you will hear a huge difference, since the new Genie boxes uses the Dolby TrueHD format, not ATMOS. But, overall, a $300 soundbar is a good choice for surround sound. You pay extra just to be an early adopter and for an uptick in sound. I docked 1 star because the price should be under $1,200, not $1,599, considering the subwoofer is not included.
Side Notes:
- I noticed half of BluRays will have the competing DTS sound format, not Dolby. Fast and Furious 7 is DTS, and Transformers is Dolby ATMOS. They both sound great. The new Samsung ATMOS soundbar does not support DTS - just FYI.
- I bought a $180 Sony 115w subwoofer and it works great with plenty of bass. Since the subwoofer is suppose to sit 3 feet to the side of your TV, I just plugged in an RCA cable. You don't need to go wireless!
However, I found a problem. Only Yamaha subwoofers have the integration feature thats allows the sub to turn on / off along with the TV remote by ARC connection. Using other than Yamaha subs, your sub will be left on and wasting electricity and shortening it's life span. I just ordered the $399 Yamaha NS-SW200PN. The cheaper Yamaha that sells for $120, have reviews knocking it's music playback capabilities, which requires more power. The $249 Yamaha that looks like a mini sub, lacks a crossover frequency control knob. So, I am stuck with another overpriced Yamaha product for $399, just so I can turn it off along with my TV.
- The 5600 setup process takes over an hour. You have to read the instructions to the T and re-read it several times, if you are not a techie type.

It didn't work on LG tvs
August 25, 2016
It turns out that ATMOS does pass through via ARC on LG tvs.
So, I was never hearing the ceiling sound. It's basically a regular $300 soundbar. There is some improvement but NOT ATMOS! Buy a different TV.

Really wanted this to work
By Rays
We were looking to pick a Home Theater for our apartment and we walked into the Magnolia home theater VA Beach store to check out some of the models we had shortlisted (which included Def tech, Sonos and Yamaha to name a few). We saw a demo of the Samsung K 850 and we were blown away with the crystal clear sound in the open area of Best Buy. We finalized the K950 and BB were helpful to do a 'Ship to store' service.
After an agonizing 3 nights my K950 was ready for pickup. I rushed to BB to pick up my K950 and couldn't wait to unbox it.
Unboxing didn't give me a great first impression. First, the box was slightly damaged with few rips. All the online reviews claimed there had to be a free Demo Blu-Ray(to experience True Dolby-Atmos). In the box I received, I couldn't find any. Most importantly I was not informed that Dolby-Atmos was not supported without the ARC. I own a Plasma tv released in 2009 and unfortunately mine doesn't support HDMI-ARC. This was a big letdown. I still was sincerely hoping this would somehow work.
After connecting everything i realized that the woofer light and the rear speakers' lights were still blinking. I tried connecting through the app and it kept flashing a message that no speakers were found. I contacted Samsung and they confirmed that this could be a faulty unit.
I returned to BestBuy, who promptly refunded my money. So if you are looking to buy this, don't buy it online(In order to avoid the hassle of returning). I felt the packaging was definitely a letdown for the price we pay and for optical cable the sound from the sound bar itself was very flat. I ended up picking the Def tech Wstudio Micro. I love that and it's a shame that my K950 wouldn't work. I learnt from Eric at the store that another gentleman had to return his unit due to the woofer dropping often. Maybe Samsung rushed our Shipment without doing due diligence. They have to take it back to the lab for more testing. This has potential but not the results.

How does the bass sound?

Yes it's heavy. Bass is sharper than the cheaper soundbars.
