B-series 5.1ch. DTS Virtual:X Soundbar / HW-B73MD

Costco has this for $199 ($100 off) right now. I got it and it sounds great. https://www.costco.com/samsung-hw-b73cdza-51-channel-soundbar-with-dts-virtualx-and-wireless-subwoofer.product.4000280108.html

Go to Costco and get the Samsung HW-B73CD/ZA 5.1 Channel Soundbar with DTS Virtual:X and Wireless Subwoofer. I bought the first of 3 at $329. They are on sale for $199 right now and sound can’t be beat for that price. Wireless sub is great for the money.

I’ve been using this soundbar for a week now. It’s not hanging and is on my cabinet below the tv. I’ve been gaming a lot. While it makes explosion and shooting sound better, I can’t hear footsteps at all or the halo narrator very well. My tv speakers are better in those regards. I’ve tried all the sound modes and tried messing with the settings. Is there a different one sounds same price that wouldn’t make certain noises so much worse? Do I need to spend a lot more? I

My tv vizio Oled 55in , and Samsung hw-b73md ARC($350.-3 yr warranty Walmart),  having issues with sound quality,  this Samsung has power, 350 watts, next Samsung in line i hope on sale next weekend is now eARC $650.00 , funny Vizio 5.1 eArc didn't do it.  Lot's of research,  this weekend I'll see whats up, I have Feb 2 to bring back, but I like this system,  not sure a converter would work, so Ai says

Purchases the B73cd from Costco and it has a nice sound. I haven’t compared it to the other soundbars you mentioned, so I’m here for the comments. I’d think the 5.1 has the advantage of more immersive sound, but I can’t say for sure

No Wi-Fi or app needed to set up. I connected with HDMI. Bass speaker is Bluetooth connected. If it has a microphone connection i haven’t tried it. I have a Samsung tv so it connects when I turn on the tv. The only downside I see is that additional speaker options seem limited.

There are other Samsung soundbars that have the Q-symphony feature which can leverage the tv speakers as well, but you also need a compatible Samsung tv. This soundbar does not have that feature. I’m not a gamer so I didn’t pick up that sound issue.
