Samsung HWS801B 3.1.2 Ch Dolby Atmos Soundbar for a reasonable price considering it’s only been released last year.
It’s a relatively compact soundbar aimed at those who are looking for a less chunky soundbar. Despite its quite small shallow form it offers superb sound from the various reviews I’ve read. By no means the best soundbar as you will appreciate the top end soundbars have more space to play with and can obviously do more with them. And the connectivity is less than ideal only offering mini hdmi.
However, paired with the compact sub the Dolby atmos delivers a superb immersive sound bouncing sound around you.
I will be buy this soundbar, I like how it looks in comparison to others and really like the features and performance. I’m hoping to find some wireless Samsung speakers that are white to go with it but as yet not quite found anything.
it’s still selling for more direct for Samsun, it’s a fair bit more expensive via John Lewis but you can get it a tad cheaper via eBay if you have a look.

sorted byThere are no HDMI inputs and no optical jack. Again, won't matter to most, but worth knowing.
my new tv arrives tomorrow, I’m 90% sure this is the soundbar I want I just want to check on measurements when it’s on my wall.
im specifically after a white setup.
the reviews sound really good so I’m glad you agree.
I’ve pulled the trigger on the new one via eBay, at £251 I think is absolutely brilliant value.
Can’t wait to hook this upto my new TV.
Better yet link a decent avr, subwoofer and 2 speakers that can be had for under £300. Deluded. (edited)
I ideally wanted the the q990c but at over £1k, taking up a larger footprint and being in black -I’ve pulled the trigger on this.
probably not for the purist of audiophiles but from what I’ve read Im pleased with the purchase. Hoping it’s as good in my house.
I watched the covenant last night, the sound was brilliant.
paying £250 for this feels like a steal.
Is there better for this cost? Certainly won’t look as good as this too
But I understand it only connects (wired) to the TV with HDMI (ARC) as it doesn't have an optical connection. My (Samsung) TV has 4 HDMI connectors (1xARC) and I want to have 4 devices connected to the TV. I think that means I would need a soundbar that has optical connection?
I don't want to have an HDMI splitter/combiner to connect two devices to one of the TV's HDMI connectors.
I guess there is the option to connect to the TV wirelessly via Bluetooth but I have been led to believe that if you connect a soundbar wirelessly with Bluetooth the audio has to be resampled or something and doesn't support all audio formats (codecs?).
Can anyone offer any comments in regard to my dilemma?!
