Samsung HW-Q930B/XN. I needed a no hassle sound system for my apartment that i rent. For me, personally its a 10/10.

I agree, still very happy with it. I barely go over 15 on volume because it's so loud, once I tried the voice operating mode and said put the volume to 8. It misunderstood and set it to 88, jump scare of a lifetime ( and probably my neighbors too )

I got a really good deal on a Samsung 930B and it's been fantastic so I imagine the latest version is still solid. The Samsung subs get a lot of complaints and that's probably in larger rooms. In a smaller cozier room it's more than enough, and the system overall is really functional for that use case with Spacefit etc. when you can't physically get ideal rear speaker placement. Honestly for much larger rooms, I'm not sure soundbars are the right choice in general, even the high end ones.

I use a Samsung Q930B with my C2. Love it. Sub shakes my couch and nearly my whole living room.

I’m running the 2022 Frame 65” with the Q930b. Every time I turn on the TV it automatically turns on the soundbar and TV (q symphony). I only need to use one remote unless I want to adjust the subwoofer (almost never) which is when I need the soundbar remote. The only time I have issues is when i connect it to my Bluetooth headphones - when I disconnect the headphones it goes back to TV only and I need to manually switch it back to Q symphony. If I didn’t use my headphones I would be using the 1 TV remote only 99% of the time. Can’t speak to the later models but that’s been my experience. My 930b soundbar and woofer is plenty loud. My space is more than twice your space and I rarely have it near 50% volume. I love in an apartment and that’s probably already borderline anti social for the neighbours.
