I picked up a Q7CB from Costco on clearance for $150 and added open box excellent 9500s for $120 from Best Buy to pair with it. I guess $35 for speaker stands too but I love my set up and watching atmos movies has been great.
the bar dtsx support. its a q60b , he need that dtsx app to get the option to show
I got the 990D last month. I had the 600C with back speakers and the 990D blows it out of the water in every way possible. Amazing sound system for the price
If you get a Samsung 600,700 or 800 series you can add the rear speakers on at a later date for a couple of hundred bucks and then you have 80% the effect of the 900 series for 1/3 the price
Get the Sonos system. Samsung is terrible at support. Further you can buy the Sonos components from Costco. At least most of them. Return policy is quite generous as you probably know. Don’t be tempted by the Samsung pricing. It’s just not as good or reliable as the Sonos systems. He’ll even the JBL soundbar systems have better sound than the Q series.
