I bought a samsung s90d a few months ago and am using its stand which is very similar but a normal soundbar wouldn’t fit in front because it is too tall. I ended up with a samsung s700d soundbar+sub and a set of 9200s rear speakers for full surround. If you have enough width you could do the s800d which has upfiring speakers too but with my stand the tv is on it would’ve hung off. I use it with qsymphony since my tv is also samsung and it sounds great

The s700/s800d are only 1.5” tall so they will fit in front without blocking view

Can confirm the s800 is a great choice . We love ours going on 3 years. Think i paid $250 on amazon for it

Samsung S800D/S801D with SWA9500S rear speaker kit would possibly be your best option. They also do these skins, but neither colour really match the wood for you, unfortunately. https://preview.redd.it/qw1x7s9spq9g1.jpeg?width=1079&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=04cabe6ff7876b093df9a03c5726ffa6612f28c5

Samsung Soundbar for Frame is the best option. You can use SmartThings app to tweak and update. Other than that it is faily set it up once and you are done kind of world.

That soundbar is going to block the bottom of the screen. I have an 83" B4 with the same stand as yours. Get out your measuring tape and see. Google samsung slim soundbar to find a model that will fit. I got the s800d and am happy with it. Huge improvement over the tv speakers.

Had a similar issue but couldn't find anything we really liked. Ended up caving and doing a Samsung Ultra Slim soundbar, the profile on it is very small compared regular ones and more in line with the Frame thickness. Something like an S800D could be paired with 9500S for the wireless rear speakers. More generically without a soundbar, Sonos Era and Sub via Bluetooth would be what your looking for though I have no idea how good it sounds.

Probably the Samsung s800. It's pretty decent actually. Nothing amazing but for the size packs a punch. I might also recommend the Samsung q600f or lg s9cs but those are both 2.2 or 2.4 inches. Hard limit of 2 the s800 is the best bet. And yes. It's better than g5 speakers by themselves

Most soundbars wouldn't fit there. Just get a Sony Quad instead. Or your best choice would be a Samsung HW-S800 series to place just in front of the TV. But if you're really keen on that tiny space, there is the Sonos Ray and Sonos Beam. Though it's a bit outdated and I don't know how it sounds.

By the way, how much are you getting the S800B for? If you're able to find a C or D and the price range isn't that far off of each other, I suggest you get the later iteration.

I'm definitely picking the Q800D. I've had the S800 & Q800B before, the S800 was one of the worst systems I've had, & the Q800 was one of the best systems I've had. The S800 is a disaster tbh, shocked they released it like it is. If you turn it up past like half volume (which isn't loud) you'll hear the bar itself like vibrating & rattling. It's insanely disappointing. The subwoofer was alright, but didn't play as deep as the Q800 ported subwoofer. And the sad part is the new Q800F subwoofer I think is literally the same subwoofer as the S800, which imo isn't even close to the Q800D subwoofer. If the 800F was an 8" subwoofer with an 8" Passive Radiator, then I'd pick that, but with it now being a 6.5" sub & 8" radiator, I think it's a massive downgrade from the 8" ported design.

Tbh I don't understand what Samsung was thinking when designing the 800F. They could've some something else easily. Simply putting a sub from a different bar series (the 800F sub is the S800x sub.) is such lazy designing it's actually sad (and even sadder considering the sub actually ended up being a downgrade). I tell everyone to get the 800D instead if possible. I'm not sure what would've been a good design that doesn't leave too little "upgrade space" between the 800 & 900. Maybe either a ported design for the 900 & a sealed for 800's. Hell I don't even understand how people truly say the 990F sub is more compact from what I'm seeing but idk. I'm hoping these new MK2 subwoofers have been upgraded. Not that they're not loud enough but the sub just didn't sound very clean & had an overly strong mid bass sound to the sub. But these new subs look like another design and tuning design so hopefully they improved it this time. I'm waiting for rTings to release test results before making my decision on what's next.
