Samsung - HW-Q910D/ZA

If you have a .edu email, and you have time to wait, I would keep an eye on Samsung's "Shop Samsung" app. A month ago I got the 910D for $500. If you sign in using a .edu email, you will get their education discount which saves hundreds. And if you haven't purchased from their app before, you can save $50 off your first purchase of $500+. When I got my 910D the price was down to $550, then I got an additional $50 off from the app. That said, the price is back up to $700, but I imagine it will go back down as the 2025 models get released. If you want something now, the 800D is $525, so you can get it down to $475 on the app.

I have a Q910D and I absolutely love it

Anyone coming here later, I really enjoy mine, have had it for just over a month now

I bought the Samsung Q910D for under $700. I think it’s decent…. I dont have much to compare it to. It has upfiring speakers

I just got this for Christmas and it sounds fantastic.

My previous system was a Sony 5.1 speaker setup, which was rather great but it was worn out after over 15 years. I was nervous about getting a soundbar system because I had heard some years ago and they never impressed me. They’ve gotten way better, I ended up getting a q910c, which is 9.1.2 and I’m still blown away by how much more immersive it is, even from a 5.1 source. I do wish for stronger bass, my friend has a Sonos and that thing has one badass sub, the first time I went to his house, I heard it from another room and thought he had a full fledged home theater setup.

I replaced my 500 watt Sony 5.1 “dream system” with a Samsung Q910D and it’s way better sounding and much easier to setup and deal with Edit: it was 500 watts, not 1000

Can’t you go circlejerk in r/hometheater ? Why come here just to shit on soundbars? How is it hard to believe my 9.1.2 sounds better than a 20 year old 5.1?

I had a S55H and it wasn't too bad at all. Recently found Samsung q910d's for great price, so I upgraded. For the price the TCL was pretty decent

I’ve had one for about a month now. I’m definitely not a pro but, it’s essential to have the app (called smart things) that lets you customize the sound settings and speaker settings. A lot of those changes have a day and night difference. At first I was disappointed with how quiet the rear speakers were out of the box. But after playing around in the app a little bit you can get a very full spacious sound. I’ve been very pleased with my purchase.

You can get the Samsung Q930D for $700 on Woot. I bought my parents the Q990D and it's an amazing sound bar. Those rear speakers pack a punch, and the Dolby Atmos performance is great. If that is a little above your budget, you can get the Samsung Q910D for $490 from Walmart. It's a different set of rear speakers, but still a great sound bar.

Hey, I didn't see this question until just now today....I see you posted a month ago, so no doubt you've already figured out what you needed to do for your situation. Still, I wanted to pass on the information you asked for so that anyone else looking for it will be able to find it without a ton of fuss. The HW-Q910D consists of: Soundbar = 11.7lbs or 5.31kg Subwoofer = 22.2lbs or 10.07kg (2) Rear speakers = 1.2lbs or 544g/ each I hope this helps someone out there....I needed to mount my soundbar beneath my 42" Samsung TV corner mounted in master bedroom using SANUS fully articulating (tiltable, rotatable & extendable) wall mount and I too found it necessary to determine the weight of both the soundbar & whatever potential add-on soundbar mounting bracket I planned to use in order to make certain I didn't exceed the max weight for the SANUS wall mount, MODEL: VMF518-B1 (which is rated for TVs up to 75lbs). My TV weighs 17.6lbs (60kg)without integrated stand Fortunately, I lucked out with the total of all weights coming in under 75lbs though I am still debating over what I want to use to hold / suspend the rear speakers because for me it's just super ghetto & not at all an elegant solution to resort to driving a screw into the drywall and hanging the speaker from it using the built-in key hole mounting slot recessed into the back of each speaker.... I'm leaning toward simple black iron stands that have a very small freestanding footprint that offers adjustable height, sturdy weighted base and a clean design that neatly hides the wires. I'm still on the fence, so if anyone has a solution I should know about, let's hear about what has worked for your setup. Thanks!
