"A good robovac is a life changer. Even a $350 basic S8. It is a great place to start. ... I promise you that you will not be disappointed by a basic S8. It will change your life even if it can't fit under every piece of furniture you own. ... My two S8s just finished vacuuming our entire house in about 46 minutes. ... While my floors were being cleaned, I sat comfortably on our patio in the cool shade with a slight breeze and composed my far too long response to you while sipping a diet soda and relaxing. ... I will have to spend about four minutes maintaining my two S8s. This will be my entire contribution to my home floor cleaning effort for today. Four minutes!"
"Like 500$ these robots are currently the steal of the century ... You can get a mova p10 pro ultra (cannot remove its mops), equivalent to the l40/x40 for 500$ after a discount code"
"I got the Q5 Pro for $139. ... costs $450 less than what I paid for the S6 ... it is the best value option out there imo."

"The side firing channels on the rear surround make a *huge* difference on regular Dolby Surround coming from the Switch. ... The sound of an exploding bomb rock or the chomp of a Bulborb eating your Pikmin revolves *perfectly right around you* as you when Captain Olimar is walking in an arc. It's better than on my "real" 5.1.4 system."
"playing on the PS5 is taking the console to another level ... just listening to the engines of Gran Turismo 7, please, what incredible madness!"
"The surround effects that come out of this thing are practically otherworldly. ... Just watching music videos on YouTube is an eyeopener. ... The way the sound follows you as you walk around the room or even just turn your head while sitting still are like something that I've never experienced. ... It's that " sound mapping " feature, I forget the official name of it, but it's worth every penny for that effect alone. ... magical surrounding audio bliss this unit conjures up on the spot."

"As I’m writing this, I’m watching Pacific Rim on my ATV4K (purchased on iTunes). System volume at 25%, rears and sub at MAX. I can hear all of the atmos effects clearly and the experience is exceptional."
"I would say that as long as you have something that tries to create the height information of Atmos and DTS:X, you're good. ... As such, the Bravia Bar 9 with sub and rears is totally fine, very good even. ... a soundbar with rear speakers, subwoofer, and upfiring tweeters will at least give you discrete channels for all or most of the sounds contained on the disc."
"ever since adding the Bar 9, the SA-RS5’s have become more present when watching movies. ... With both soundbars I always set to rears to MAX volume, but now I can actually hear them while using the Bar 9. ... They’re powerful at MAX volume and their sound is clean. ... The other night I watched A Quiet Place Part II. Rears were set to MAX but system volume was set to 30. I could still hear the rears loud and clear. This is with the Bar 9 in the system. When using the A7000, there’s no way at 30% system volume that I’d be able to hear the rears. ... the RS5’s are amazing now."

"For me Q600C was the best option for I was lookong for: movies and games (PS5) because of the Dolby Atmos and the clear Sound of the voices ... I’ve bought the Q600C and I an very satisfied. Sounds really clear and Great. For movies and games. And the voices are very clear too."
"Muffled center channel can be completely fixed by using settings in the mobile app. ... Sound is amazing including dialog once everything is dialed in. ... I'm wondering if people aren't using the mobile app to customize settings because that is what completely fixes the dialog issues."
"Q600c is definitely better in terms the clarity of the sound. ... So if you watch movies, it ’s probably a better choice."

"Had a hw q600 series soundbar and sub that sub was way punchier than the big one."
"I think it’s pretty great and still get that punchy feeling of the audio being presented as was intended."
"the q600c comes with up-firing speakers and a sub"

"The bass however is slightly weak on Samsung ... Jbl is not at all bad with vocal clarity and bass quality can blow Samsung out of water. ... I returned Samsung"
"where it failed miserably was with MUSIC. ... I played with all the settings on the Samsung, which are fairly limited and couldn't get music to sound decent, zero bass... and again, very tinny."
"the Samsung was WAY too tinny ... very tinny."

"But, in terms of Atmos and the bar's upward firing speakers, the results are less than jaw dropping. ... But so far little specific overhead effects have manifested themselves."
"we don’t get specific height effects either. Just a greater sense of height to the overall presentation."
"Is it as good for atmos? No"

"the surround effect is not that good without the rears."
"The Q600 models are NOT compatible with the SWA9500s wireless surround speakers. ... The Q600 from what I am aware of are only compatible with the SWA9200s surround speakers. ... The SWA9200s I believe are only side firing."
Adept_Abalone_105 1.0That's the best value option to go with
That will be the best one for its price point. It has the up firing speakers which help give spatial audio while still being a reasonable price.
The best option for the Samsung TV specifically would be either the Q600C or the Q730D. They both use Q-Symphony (uses soundbar and tv speakers for fuller sound), and they can both be controlled through one remote/app (Samsung Smart things).
Adorable_Peak4621 1.0Go for q800d, even i am from India and been researching alot about it and with all the choices available to us q800d seems to be perfect option for you, plus one if you add rear speakers in the future. I bought q600c because i didnt have budget for 800d
Actually amazon f***ed my order. They sent me some cheap ass samsung speaker instead. Be cautious if you are ordering from amazon and shoot a video if you can of delivery. And if you have a samsung tv with q symphony then its a no brainer to go with q series.
I just bought q600c from reliance digital for 25k and paired with my samsung tv it will be 5.1.2 which is great given the price point. So if you have a budget for q800d then go for it because of its upgraded sub and dedicated side and upfiring speakers, if not then its a no brainer to go with 600c if you have q symphony compatibe tv.
AggravatingSearch989 1.0Samsung Q600c absolutely *The other two do not support Dolby Atmos and the q600c comes with up-firing speakers and a sub*
ANDERS_CORNER_08 1.0Ah fair enough just did the conversion ! Samsung Q600c is a good option, and similar price
Samsung Q600c fits your price range
Wow is known to be terrible and worse than not using it ! Beyond that all LG soundbars have awful reviews, even for there price ! I’d go Samsung q600c at this price range … entry level Dolby atmos with great reviews
AssNtittyLover420 1.0Best soundbar? Samsung HW-Q990D. I went with the HW-Q600C and have been pleasantly surprised with the quality. Being so close, you probably don’t need the best
boomoliver 1.0Not really, just turn down the volume. I think anything more than a 3.1.2 soundbar is overkill for this setup, however if you have the budget I'd recommend upfiring speakers as they can create sound above the soundbar, essentially making it seem more like the sound comes from the monitor instead of below it. Something like the Q600C/D/F.
comfort666 1.0I just ordered the Q600c and it’s coming in a few hours ($293 after tax). I wouldn’t recommend this one even for the price especially for music, the bass will be virtually nonexistent.
CrabbitJambo 1.0It was the Q600C. Wasn’t even half the price of the Q990D when I first looked at it however it dropped from over £500 to £279 here when I bought it. Genuinely thought I’d bought low end for the price but been blown away by it.
Drproctor1995 1.0Yes, but I'd wager that he wants a full body sound stage. Pick up an open box Q-600C/F or QS-730D, then test it out. You'll be very surprised. I personally have a Samsung Q-800D (5.1.2) with Samsung SWA-9500S rear speakers (2.0.2) combined with the TV speakers (Q-Symphony) for a total of a 7/9.2.4 channel surround sound system. Along with the 77" S90D streaming through an Apple TV 4K ethernet model, it's truly an immersive experience! You won't be disappointed if you decide to get one. Even go to Best Buy and listen to a demo model on display!
Fiv3Score 1.0If you are looking at Samsung, out of those I'd recommend the Q600C. It has a slightly weaker sub than others in its price range, but can be a good thing for an apartment. The C series isn't really worth it imo. B650 and B750 are very popular, but no Dolby Atmos support if that's important to you. S60D is like a very budget Sonos Beam, and it sounds like it too. Very poor Dolby Atmos, and almost need the sub for it to sound decent. Also recently discontinued, so they are on sale. If you plan to get the sub for it, might as well go with a different soundbar. If you really want to go without sub, I'd go Sonos Beam Gen 2 or Bose Smart Soundbar (550/600 are almost the same if you can find them on sale).
I was also looking at this comparison. They both still have DTS, I'm pretty sure all Samsung soundbars do. From what I can see, they now market it as True 3.1.2 surround sound instead of just 3.1.2 lol. The biggest difference that I can see, is that it has SpaceFit Sound Pro. I tried it in the S60D, I'm not convinced it really does much. But if you are looking for that feature, might be worth it. Not worth for me over here though, Q600C is $450, Q600f is $700
