Samsung - HW-S61B

I have the S60B and S61B for reference. It's been solid, other than the fact that I wish it had a display on it. All prompts are voice-based; (e.g. mode switching). Even a tiny screen would have been nice to have.

I have the S61B version of this, which is likely still similar. For $200, I'd consider that a good price, provided you're okay with no small information display at the front like the better Q series bars have; all prompts and settings are Vocal. That and no sub of course, since this is a 5.0 bar.

If you've got a samsung TV get a samsung soundbar, I have the Samsung S61B soundbar and it sounds really good, it powers on/off with my TV remote and of course volume works, I can also control it via the smart things app so it could be hidden anywhere, hope this helps! 

Don't buy a soundbar just because it's the same brand as the TV, I tried Samsung's Q-symphony and it's ass. I also switched to a Sony TV while keeping the Samsung soundbar.

I found that Q-Symphony adds a nice touch of fill-in to the front soundstage. Not life changing, but definitely worth it.

The Samsung tv will help with center channel with the Q symphony I believe. Prob will not notice much if at all. Samsung as others had said is def a far better bang for your buck. I don’t consider myself an audio expect but I had what I thought was a nice lg 5.1.2 soundbar and the Samsung blows it away. Voice clarity is what shocked me the most. All ranges of sounds are more defined and crisp even when only steaming. 4k Blu-ray Discs up the level another few notches. There are a bunch of posts on this subreddit explaining how to save a bunch of money ordering some Samsung directly if you choose to go with that soundbar
