HW-Q990D

I don't understand, you bought the best soundbar in that price range and returned. Jbl will not be as good. You should have stuck with 990d and if you really hate the music on it so much, then get something dedicated for music. I am sorry, but I have been reading for a while and 990d/f are the top in that price range

Agreed. I just got a 990d and I’m happy with it. Similar situation to OP but in a larger space. Living room is 15’x28’ (listening area is mostly 15’x18’ given the configuration of the furniture in the room) and open to another area as well (kitchen and dining area). I’ve heard better sound systems but I’m quite impressed with this one. It’s stupid easy to set up.. basically plug and play. The sound surprisingly fills the area quite well.

Just got the Q990D today . this thing is amazing

Same . I haven't owned another soundbar that came with subwoofer and side speakers so I can't compare it to anything else but damn this shit sounds amazing , how much better can a soundbar get lol

I got a Samsung q990d for my lg. I don’t regret it. Best soundbar I’ve ever had.

I have the Samsung q990d and it’s a great soundbar. I’d recommend it if he wants to go the soundbar route.

I’d say Samsung q990f. I have the q990d and love it.

Q990d is one of the better soundbars I’ve heard. That is why purchased it.

Absolutely. Tv speakers have been terrible for decades now. If you’re spending that much on a tv it’s really worth it to get a decent sound system to complete the experience. I have a Samsung q990d and it’s amazing.

Any soundbar can do. But depends on how immersed you want to be. A 200 dollar soundbar is not going to sound near as good as a 1000 dollar one. I have a Samsung q990 and it trumps every other soundbar I’ve had up to this point. I’d highly recommend it if you have the cash. But if not, any soundbar will be better than tv speakers.

Samsung Q990D will blew away both sony and that jbl
