Samsung - HW-Q67CB

Samsung bought out JBL & Harmon Kardon a few years ago so you'd think they'd be using those speakers in their systems now which would make for huge upgrades. I have HW-Q67CB surround now upstairs that I'm looking to replace now on my QD-OLED 65 but have 6 JBL 12" studio control monitors & a 15" 1800 watt Klipsch sub downstairs & JBL's rock! It sounds like the990D is 1, 8" sub but the 990F is 2, 8" subs so 2 is better than 1 you'd think and I'd love to find out if they're using either JBL or Harmon Kardon speakers in their new systems now!

The Samsung tv will help with center channel with the Q symphony I believe. Prob will not notice much if at all. Samsung as others had said is def a far better bang for your buck. I don’t consider myself an audio expect but I had what I thought was a nice lg 5.1.2 soundbar and the Samsung blows it away. Voice clarity is what shocked me the most. All ranges of sounds are more defined and crisp even when only steaming. 4k Blu-ray Discs up the level another few notches. There are a bunch of posts on this subreddit explaining how to save a bunch of money ordering some Samsung directly if you choose to go with that soundbar

I found that Q-Symphony adds a nice touch of fill-in to the front soundstage. Not life changing, but definitely worth it.

I’ve had the sennheiser ambeo, Bose smart ultra, and the Samsung q800, in that order. First two were returned for connectivity issues with my newish Samsung tv. The q800 has been great (the ambeo probably had the best surround but only if it connected). Q symphony is amazing. With the first two bars, you could clearly tell the sound was coming from below the TV… q symphony fixes that completely. And the subwoofer is amazing.
