Samsung - HW-Q900T (2020)

Hello I have q900t which was in the past connected with Samsung tv it died and I have purchase the tcl and now the base is gone . Before it was like very high base but now there is none . I am unable to find a fix for it :(

I had the same soundbar. It's decent in terms of clarity, but when I got a Samsung 900t with added subs I realized how lackin the Yamaha was. Sad thing was I paid almost the same for both. Was a total soundbar noob.

Go for Samsung Q series preferably the Q9 or try the Samsung B750 if you are budget conscious. If you looking for JBL go for higher trims

That was my only real complaint with their 900 series sets. A small settings change in the menu, or even some system-wide awareness that allows switching to a different mode specifically for listening to music -- or even older Dolby 2.1 and stereo channel content from any source. Unfortunately, I can't test this setup myself now, as I have the surrounds mounted, but this is great advice for someone else that comes through this thread. I sincerely hope their next iteration solves some of these issues. Having come from a dedicated Atmos setup, I was impressed with the performance -- but not having solid music playback was a tough pill to swallow.

Try it, it's more musical than q990d or f for sure but sounds thin sometimes.

Using the rears as fronts, vastly improves music quality. But if u only want a standalone, maybe look to sonos arc ultra, if thats too much the q900 would be great as well, even the q800.

Q930 Q900 Maybe

My 9.1 sounded amazinf for 1 day, then right detachable speaker started popping and making static sound, at full volume. reset, unplugged, finaly returned. Bought Samsung Q900 (no rears). sounds great.

Yeah Samsung q800 or q900 series are both stellar for dialogue. I hated the older Samsungs for dialogue, but anything b, c, d or newer in those ranges are awesome with dialogue, even when you don’t turn on the voice enhancement. My q990b is fantastic for voice clarity even in action movies at any volume.

I’ve got a 5.1 jamo setup, and the HomePods are not even comparable, and a centre channel does make things better, but a good set of bookshelves handle dialogue well enough I don’t miss a centre channel at all. We watch a lot of TV, movies and TV shows, so I don’t know what to tell you. We bought the jamo gear because our 7.1.2 Samsung soundbar sucked hardcore with dialogue, and I constantly had to change sound modes to attempt to hear things. Not worth the bookshelf speakers though. IMO the HomePods are worse than the TV speakers sometimes. Also planar tweeters were a big upgrade for me for dialogue.
