HW-Q950A

Downvote me all you like but I purchased a Samsung sound bar with the 2 wireless surround speakers + sub and I love it. Only issue is I can't adjust the surround speakers a whole lot but you don't really need to. I was sceptical at first but I'm about 3 years in and it still blows me away how good it is

Yeah ours is the Q950A which is essentially the same model but a couple years older. Looks like the Q990F was $2500 at the start of the year and is now $1450 so not a bad price. It may not be for you but I was really just after a setup that didn't require me running cables into the walls or hiding them under the carpet. So far so good. Pretty powerful and very minimalist setup. We never really crank it too high either and I like that there's a setting to boost dialogue. Disclaimer though I do have a Samsung TV so that also played a part in me sticking with the brand.

Ive owned every samsung Q950A and Q990 sets from Q950T to Q990D. And now I own 2 HTA9 sets with subs. I tell you so..

Went from Samsung q950a (I think) to the Sony ht a9. Biggest difference was the soundstage, it was a huge upgrade. Centre isn’t an issue at all

Yeah. I did both the Bose and Sonos (Beam 2). The Sonos crushed the Bose. My Samsung 950a is absolutely awesome.

Seems like it (note - I have a Samsung q950a, it’s amazing. I also have a beam 2 standalone for my non-viewing room, it’s awesome). Per the OP, it seems like posters just parrot shit-talk about Sonos without actually realizing they’ve undergone a huge change in terms of management and updates to their apps and reliability.

Mine just arrived while I was on a business trip. Cant wait to get to home to set it up (main living room). We have the Samsung q950 in the basement for the movie room.

Yes, indeed it does an awesome job. Way better than the 950a that was my previous soundbar system.
