I just purchased my first soundbar the Yamaha 108 and I'm happy with it. It's a major improvement from my 55 inch tv speakers
How much it cost?
@David Mander what is wrong with a sound bar lol? I have a full surround sound system in my living room powered by a Denon avr 930h. But I use a 5.1 soundbar in my bedroom and it sounds great for small rooms/bedrooms
@@samuelchan9501 I also have a soundbar (the HW-N950) with my 55" don't see what the problem is
@@KOEK111 Audiophiles are insufferable at times. Typically, a good 2.1 with bookshelf speakers and a decent sub will outperform any sound bar (and can SOMETIMES be cheaper than these sound bars). Nothing wrong with a sound bar for a small room, but most sound bars don't give really good clarity like a 2.1/3.1 system can. Still, the HW-N950 and HW-Q90r are really good quality and produce decent atmos effects, even more so if you can get them used since they run about $400 on Ebay right now which isn't too bad
mình vừa test trên kênh samsung q90r vs 1 cặp dalton group lại 1600w x2 mọi người cho đánh giá ạ
How about the Nakamichi Shockwafe Ultra 9.2.4 SSE? How does it compare against the Samsung? Review it Digital Trends
Is it possible to connect a different wireless subwoofer to soundbar (like Harman Kardon) instead of the standard one.
Nakamichi Shockwafe 9.2.4 is hands down the best sound bar out right now. Duel 10 inch subwoofers four surround speakers 1000 total watts all for $1299 and decodes Atmos and DTS-X . I was going to buy the Samsung Q90R until I saw and read about the Nakamichi. Had it for two weeks now and have no complaints.
This Soundbar dont have 1000 watt!!!! It has 100-300 total inc. subwoofer.
@@Shinchyko exactly, the power is one thing, the total power is another thing😅
@Tong Zou Depending on how you set up your room it will fit perfect and not take much space. I was thinking about making a short video to show my set up and posting it on RUclips. I'll let you know when I do it.
@@incrediblehawk6906 I have two Nakamichi 9.2.4 from 2018. My nephews say it's like being in the movies and that's playing at only 42 out of 100 volume, or they find it too loud. They give it a 9.5 out of 10 and I agree.
@Tong Zou I just uploaded a video showing my set up. Take a look at it. I hope it helps.
Which would you recommend going for between this and the new 9.1.4 sound bar?
Do you have to plug in the sound bar via the HDMI plug in? Our Q90R is connected via bluetooth. Is one better than the other? Thanks for the info.
Blue-tooth doesn't carry the wide Sound and Dynamic range that a true HDMI Connection would have. So HDMI is better and wins on the sonics alone. And with eARC... you WANT your prime connection to be HDMI.
Thank you so much for getting back to me! Awesome, i’ll plug the sound bar in with the HDMI cord.
I had the previous version and sold it. It was a solid bar and Atmos was excellent but I found DD5.1 weak. Surround info was barely present. Compared to my other system with a traditional 5.1 speaker and receiver it didn’t compare.
I have sold the Samsung bar and gone with a Marantz 1609 and kef speaker set. Also installed ceilings for a 5.1.2. Just a much happier experience that exceeds my other movie set up now.
As a bar it is solid with Atmos material but the material out there on Netflix isn’t enough so I went with a traditional set up.
That is usually what happens when you compare a soundbar with a true sorround sound speakers set and avr.
what type of stand you're using for the satellite speakers ?
Two questions. I have an older Flat-screen without e-ARC. Is the HWN950 really the same as the Q90r less the eARC? 2nd question, I can not able to place the satellite speakers behind me. Will they still provide a great sound experience placed on the sides? Thanks
Based on what i searched online the sub has been improved from N950, rest is pretty much the same with earc(Update supposed to come in november). I think u need to place it behind u to get the better surround sound experience.
Which one should i buy the Samsung q90r soundbar or the bose soundbar 700 with sub and rear speaker
Hello,I just bought the Samsung HW Q90R and plan to buy Beelink GT King pro TV box which support Dolby Atmos.My question is can I direct connect my soundbar thru HDMI ARC to the TV box or do I need to buy a receiver to enjoy the Dolby Atmos experience?
No need for receiver.The soundbar works as a receiver!
just noticed speakers in the top of the bar. could you recess the soundbar into a wall for a flush fit under tv or would that then take away the atmos 360 sound because it couldn't project the sound up ?
I am looking to buy the QA85Q80 85" Qled and matching with the HW-Q90 sound bar.
My question is can you add more wireless speaker to this soundbar?
I was thinking of getting the SWA-9000S/XY as side atmos speakers.
What is your suggestion please?
Also I have an old SAMSUNG system with wireless rear speakers SWA-5000 would these connect to the Q90 soundbar ? And utilise them.
Thanks
Todd
No and no
Should i buy the hw-n950 open box for $800? Or would you recommend something else?
how is bass??
Thank you kindly indicate the brand and reference of the tv stand presented in your video, take care
I don't have side walls would u still recommend this soundbar with sound bouncing off walls
which subwoofer hits better, Subwoofer Q90r or swa-w700?
I have the Q80 bar and the Q90 TV. To get atmos from my Apple TV, I have to plug it into the Bar, not the TV, correct? And then switch inputs on the bar every time I want to use it (versus the apps on the TV)?
If your TV does not directly support the decoding of Dolby Atmos you will need to connect the Media Source to the Sound Bar first... and then use an HDMI ARC connection to your TV to make everything work together.
@@SoundJudgment Did you tried Atmos in built in Netflix app on any samsung tv. Will the soundbar display Dolby Atmos logo in soundbar led display?
Dude the speakers you have in the bg are swag! Kef, elac, tannoy
How about the problem of the rear speakers syncing ?
Stephen Docherty don’t have that problem with mine
@@fapticaltactical9450 how do you connect it to your tv? Bluetooth or what cable?
update the firmware
Does anyone k ow the best setup for all of these like the front rear side top and what number to turn them to.
I'm debating over the q90, maybe the q80 (no rears) or the jbl 5.1 bar. (Just $500) and truly wireless.. thoughts?
phenom 1185 save up and go for the full experience!
can you add 1 extra bass to the soundbar?
Hi ! I just bought this one for my self, and wondering can i use it without the Rear firing speakers ? bcause i dont have much space to put it on... thank you
Yes, you can use it without rear speakers
Hello, I need help! I am looking to buy the Soundbar Q90R sansumg and I can't find it here in Brazil. Can you recommend a safe store that will send me to the South of Brazil?
Better go for the Q950A this year,
I GOT IT SOUNDS GOOD, ALL THIS PEOPLE HATING CAN'T AFFORD IT, #FACTS
I'm not a tech person so excuse me if I'm confused, but you mentioned they need to be plugged in, but are wireless ??!! I don't get it.
They are wireless, meaning that they don't need to be connected to the soundbar via a wire.
You mentioned that E ARC is coming to the Q90R in August. Will that be via a software update, or are you speaking of a newer version of the soundbar, not available until August? Thank you!!
Jay Johnson its was just a software update it has earc now
@@Thor__ give us the link where to download this update?
Александр Котляров its the current one on the smart things app, you have to have a tv that is also ready to output earc as well not any tv will just output atmos just because the sound bar can, your tv must be able too as well. I have it connected to my lg c9 oled.
Just got this bar and I’m confused in regards to the “Virtual” setting. What is the main function/reason for turning this setting on?
Virtual is Faux/simulation sound so I would leave that off since this $1700 high-end system has real genuine sounds :)
How is this one compared to the last model?
I am not sure which soundbar to buy, I wanted the samsung q90 but the rear boxes are too big for me and it doesn't look good in the living room, so I want to buy the beosound stage but it is better or worse, and the difference is big
How does it perform compared to that of bose soundbar 700 paired with acoustimass 700 and surround speakers?
Question, I had the HW-N950 and returned it due to technical issues which Samsung was not able to address and fix. First was low output from the rear speakers and synching issues with the subwoofer and rear satelite speakers. Do you know if this model addressed those issues?
I had no such issues with either bars so I'm not much help on this one I'm afraid. Sorry I can't be more help!
Does the TV youre using have to have an eArc hdmi port as well to get all the benefits of eArc or is a normal arc port ok? Thanks
Yes, both devices need eARC to complete the chain.
arc supports atmos just fine but its compressed...earc supports lossless atmos which is better. And also VRR for gaming in the future.
Would this sound bar work in a enclosed wall under the tv ?
The audio sync issue can be a huge problem with certain app’s. It particularly bad with Foxtel (a pay TV streaming derive in Australia). It can’t be adjusted out with audio sync adjustments either as these only go up in positive ms increments, which only makes it worse. Hopefully the eARC update fixes this issue. The other elephant in the room that all reviewers seem to ignore or are just extremely lucky is the wireless sub/rear speakers disconnection after sleep. If you don’t know what I’m talking about search for actual user reviews or in avforum discussion. It was widespread with the initial firmware releases and has been addressed with the latest 1008 firmware. However, potential buyers need to be aware that the first thing they need to do is update the firmware and make sure it goes through the full cycle as the final reboots are what update the sub and rears.
I did not have any issues with the rear surround or satellites disconnecting, but good looking out!
I got mine for $325 on eBay luckily, best decision I've made! Although there are SOME issues like a Sub that can feel a little weak on certain frequencies, it's the best bang for the buck for my small room where I feel like I get the most out of Atmos/DTSX movies.
Now if only there were more games on PC or Sony allowed heights in their damn games so I can get full use out of this thing.
They are many sound bars on the market and I don't know which one is bang for my money. I am looking for a powerful, deep bass sound bar that can pump up the music. I like to watch movies and listen to music. Do you have any in mind?
I’ve read from a lot of reviews of subwoofers and satellite speakers losing connectivity constantly. Has that issue been addressed with the firmware updates?
No problem, it works perfect
I had issues with the open box one I purchased from Best Buy with the rear satellites. I sent it into Samsung for repair. I will see what happens. Some say it could be related to 2.4g on your router and switch it to channel 11. If so
Thanks guys for info. I ended up getting this and havent seen any connectivity issues with satellites and subwoofer. However, did have issues with the input source not being detecting automatically or remembering the last source used (e.g., it wouldn’t remember that used HDMI1 for cable, so every time I go back, I have to manually change it). Ended up replacing it with another new one and this one works perfectly!
not sure if you have contacts at Samsung, but they really need to add the ability to specify inputs rather than just cycle inputs via the Remote... or Aftermarket IR codes for it for people who use high end universal remotes such as the Logitech harmony remote
having to cycle through hdmi inputs and worry about things getting "out of sync" is not something i should be dealing with in 2019 Samsung!!!
Bose Soundbar 700 (along with bass module and surround speakers) vs this Samsung Q90R, which one is better?
Samsung heeft dolby atmos😉
There is no update for eARC and its not coming. Update or remove this video.
Does it passthrough Dolby vision
Is it better than the Sony ST-5000 in terms of sound quality and immersion?
Master Algenis I also want the answer to this question!
Me too
I have this soundbar and watching ready player one in Atmos made my cat goes banana.
Yes it is. I bought this last week for 799. Upgraded from a Polk MagniFi Max. I loved my polk because it gives out good deep clean bass for a small soundbar. It just didn’t sound good with music. This Samsung Q90R is no joke. The soundbar is huge and it sounds great with music and movies. Only thing is that u need to calibrate it yourself. The Only thing I can say about the Sony is that I like how the subwoofer looks.
Sounds bars in general are horrible for immersion it's like comparing dog poop to cat poop. If you're in the budget for this bar you're better off buying actual speakers and a 9 channel receiver for a 5.1.4 system. Even a 5.1.2 would be better than this bar
I do watch all the videos you guys make, love it for the details.Please do compare along with the pricing
Hello, is anyone knows if in 2020 is going to be released the next model improved of this soundbar? It has been released in 2019 bit it is seems that is still the best one from samsung
Much like the upfiring module speakers, soundbars with Atmos/DTS:X on it also do no justice to them two formats. Dolby Atmos and DTS:X are best to be experienced with either in-ceiling speakers or with front/rear height speakers, not through soundbars nor the upfiring enabled speakers.
I have klipsch Reference Premier setup with upwards firing 400$ Dolby atoms speakers and while the affect is substantial, Better than sound bars, it is definitely not on the level of a ceiling mounted pair. Certainly not with those that have the subwoofer in the ceiling. (Hand of god or something similar I think it’s called)
Shut up. For a soundbar this Samsung does a very very good job. I got this for 799 brand new and was worried it wouldn’t give out good deep bass. If you want a soundbar that is good for music and movies, this is the one. If u want strictly for movie content go with nakamichi 9.2.4
@@FMD023 Thanks but no thanks, I'm happy with my 5.1.2 Atmos/DTS:X setup with my Denon AVR-S740H.
Fred Dukeduong lol no. Just because something sounds good to you doesn’t mean that it’s a great sounding speaker. Compare you sound bar or any one you want to a dedicated floorstanding or even bookshelf speaker with a sub and good AVR and you’ll see for yourself the difference. It’s different worlds of sound.
@@dylanwhisnant6772 Even the budget speaker brands like Pioneer, Dayton Audio, and Fluance sound better than a lot of the soundbars out there.
Three pairs of the Dayton Audio B652 speakers plus the 10 inch subwoofer and the C452 center speaker all gave me a kickass surround sound that were certainly much cheaper than buying a Atmos/X soundbar. :)
What settings do you have
anyone else think he looks like Justin Trudeau? just me?? ok
It's not just you.
@@ryanwaniata690 that's a great comparison tho. Two handsome gentlemen!
When I saw the image for the video, I quickly though "WTH - did Justin do a review on a soundbar?" lol
he is his cousin
😁🙌🙌🙌🙌
Does this soundbar works as reciever ie can I connect amazone fire stick 4k in it without wifi and use the Lanport (ethernet) in sound bar to run it ie connect to internet?
@David Mander q950t has these answer but rightly said, I finally settled for reciever audio based system.. Soundbar don't sound like these system..
can replace subwoofer box??
Samsung HW-Q90R & Sony HT-ST5000
which one is the best please ?
I've tested both and trust me when I tell u that the Samsung is definitely better!! So I bought that one!
@@devamaria2010 what u smokin?
@@devamaria2010 : May I know do you face any issue with the rear speaker sir ? I heard many people had this problem, is that true ?
@@sarelsoeb6650 The newest software update is proven to fix issues with rear speakers. you just need to be sure to update the bar, the sub, and the rear speakers to fix it.
Don't buy either, go with the Nakamichi Shockwafe Ultra 9.2.4 for $1200. It blows this outta the water and has 2 10" subs. You can build a much better Atmos system for under $1,000 that'll destroy any soundbar, no matter the price, but the Nakamichi is the best soundbar system for the price, by a very large margin. I would take it over any other soundbar on the market even if they were all priced equally
Why is this called Q90R everywhere else but Q96R where I live? (Norway) Is there any difference?
Q96 is the Nordic model, other than that its exactly the same.
Har du q96r-planken? Jeg vurderer å kjøpe den, men må vite at den nordiske modellen får samme firmware som kom ut i Mai, og at den dermed får eARC. Ingen av de jeg spør på butikkene som selger disse kan svare på dette..
@@mortenknutsen1981 Hei, sorry for veldig sent svar! Jeg fikk Mai-update på min Q96R. Så regner med dette gjelder for alle selv om navnet er forskjellig. :)
My question is when they update the sound bar with EARC will it be compatible with the 2018 Q9FN QLED Tv which is outfitted with ARC or are they going to update the 2018 QLED models to
Thats a good question...
Lucky i have Q90R i have old yamaha receiver with arc. So i was having lip sync issues. I did have a shitty hdmi cord going into the tv and receiver. So i replaced with a new one,so it feels like the issue is fixed? But i need a new receiver or sound bar. I either going to wait till this gets the update, before i invest.
Also they should be able to just add eARC to their older tvs, with a firmware update no doubt?
eARC is backward compatible, but if your TV doesn't have it that means you'll not be able to reap benefits like lossless sound, higher bit-rate transfer, and mandatory latency adjustment.
You guys should really do the Sonos ARC Dolby Atmos review
Latency. Got it!
Does the full qr lineup support earc or is it just the q90r?
The Q90R will be adding the support in August, but that's all we've heard about thus far.
How much it costs??
Would it cut in and out intermittently when you are watching Netflix?
HAO曾 thats only when you’re having sex with your woman. The sound bar system doesn’t know if you’re watching or chillin
I am trying to turn the subwoofer volume up however it keeps going back to 0? How can I fix this? Thanks
You would need to update all the drivers to all units including the bar, speakers and the sub to have all the same driver.....
ryan can u please tell me what your sound EQ settings for each speaker level are at?
i swear i thought the satellite speakers looked HUGE just coz they were placed nearer to the camera until he kept his hand on it lol those are huge!
Can you add satellite speakers to the samsung N50 Sound bar?
Can i connect a second subwoofer to it via 'sub out' coaxial cable?
No
@@alex_ko thanks
Is this soundbar HDMI 2.1 ready?
No
The subwoofer is good but doesn't last long. I've had the 850, but the subwoofer had issues after 2 months of use. It was replaced with the q80r and the subwoofer crapped out after 3 months.
thanks for this review , can you also review the Sony HT-X8500 sound bar ?
Have you ever encountered problems with the 5G Wi-Fi signal causing the subwoofer or rear speakers to be disconnected or murmur?
Ermao Wang - I just got this soundbar. I had to take the rear speakers back to the store. They did not connect. I got a new soundbar - same problem.
If you unplug the woofer and the rear speakers and plug in again, they work for a while, but then they disconnect again.
Samsung support has no solutions to this problem. And I can see I am not the only one.
I take it all back to the store and look at Harmon Kardon citation instead.
@@arnethornhal Software update to bar, sub and rears works and fixes the issue!
Can you do Nakamichi - Shockwafe 9.2.4 vs Q90R?
how far can you place the Surround speakers?
Nice review! Please review the Samsung he q70T next!
The conclusion? Amebeo or the samsung? Budget is not a problem
Ambeo if you got EARC supported TV like mine
That really depends on your TV setup and whether you want to mount rear surrounds. If you'd rather have a tighter setup without rear surrounds and don't think you'll be bothered by or, because of your setup, encounter any latency from TV audio, the Ambeo is a fantastic choice. If you need/want both eARC and rear surrounds the Q90R is better. Otherwise, if you just want the rear surrounds and don't need/want eARC in the foreseeable future, the HW-N950 (the Q90R's predecessor) will probably be a steal of a deal for a fair bit.
Hi. Could anyone tell me if the Sony Z9D tv support Dolby Atmos? I couldn’t get a definite answer
No, you have dolby vision but not dolby atmos. Dolby atmos is supported by 2019models and some flagship 2018 like the Zf9 or the Af8/Af9
@@robpesantezza5285 thanks for the info
@@yee0810 if you want I can give you an tip, forget the dolby atmos and get a nice home theater system 7.1 with DTS/ES /EX and place the two back surround speakers above your listening head area and about half meter up from the surround speakers. With a decent amplifier you'll get an amazing sound like dolby atmos, in some cases even better, depending on the setup that you have😉👍
3:09 mark...the video editor is on acid. Why keep switching between normal and zoom so many times??? Somebody must really hate their job and taking it out on this video.
Is this still okay in 2024?
Sory hi need a tv with dolby atmos to have the DA sound or u can have it with soundbar.
LG c8 is Dolby atoms sound
On the box does it say its made in Mexico or China....? Thanks.
Made in China
The Price for a Samsung! Is this thing that good really! Especially when you have Bose & Sonos.
Has there been any other word on the N850 and N950 getting the eARC update, it was spoke of ages ago....but then nothing.
Anyone knows if is it possible to play music from my dlna music server through the Smartthings app?
Sony BW -N9200 soundbar and samsung Q90R compare and best sound effect video...
I wish I could get this bar, but sadly Samsung TVs and Soundbars are not available in Japan.
Get the Nakimichi sound bar. It is better.
This one or the Sonos Play 1 bundle ?
They are both great. However, Sonos doesn’t do Dolby Atmos, but has excellent surround sound and bass.
Great review! Nakamichi Shockwafe Ultra review pls
I wish there was one. ONE. retailer who would demo these in a proper room.
I bought one of these sound bars brand new and the sub cuts in and out , as well as the rear surrounds , has anyone else experienced this ?
Darren Hodge Are you still having issues with it? Have you updated to the latest firmware?
@@ginoboy it's all good now. It came with a little usb stick and I updated it and it's been great ever since
I had the same issue. Had returned my first and exchanged for another. Both had the connection issues. Essentially the sub and rears would constantly loose connection and you’d hear constant popping in the sound. Regardless of the audio source. I performed multiple firmware updates and used both the update steps on the mobile app as well as USB method. I had high hopes for this sound bar but completely unreliable. Samsung support wanted me to send the brand new unit for repair. Nope. It went back to Best Buy. Samsung should have sent me an exchange and they could have had the faulty units to play with.
This was about 3 months ago. Is this still an issue with people buying later devices?
Just checked Samsung support site and the firmware version is the same as what I was using. Unless I had to be units I’d be surprised if they resolved this.
VER 1008.0
JUL 03,2019
William Foster I’m having problems with it and I just purchased it one week ago I have to send the sound bar so they can service it 😔
@@gentiandvorani8857 no. If you are having trouble with sync of your rears and sub. The unit comes with a usb. Plug the usb into the bottom of the soundbar and it will update the firmware. If you continue to have trouble, press both the volume up and down together and it will turn off. Then with the remote , turn it back on and then it all should work properly from then on
The Q96R is a downgrade from their first soundbar K950. Sounds budget when I switch to Samsung's new Soundbar in the middle of some movies including the remaster Matrix movie and some Netflix movies with or without ATMOS. I think the problem is that the reviewer does not compare to the older version. Q96R / N950 with HW-K950 and which in my case was tricked into thinking that this new Soundbar was an upgrade.
Anybody know what"virtual on/off" actually do? Nothing in the manual about that.
The virtual setting is used to create a surround-sound feeling when listening to music that only use two speakers, Samsung have also stated to not use the virtual mode for movies or gaming as it could interfere with the speakers.
@@gwm8924 Thank you. Samsung manual doesn't say shit. Thanks again.
@@CaptinLongdong1 no problem at all, glad I could help.
Hope samsung make q100r with 9.2.6 setup
The king of soundbars is the Nakamichi 9.2.4, no questions. Two subwoofers will always be better than one. Atmos and DTX. Guess what? Cheaper then the q90r. No brainer.
Just got one for $299 at costco. I hope it is still worth that price.
I have this sound bar. I have to power cycle the sub every day for it to start working. Sucks.
did you update the firmware?
Agree, you need to update your software.
When is HDMI 2.1 coming to Samsung?
Hdmi 2.1 is a waste of time unless your using 8k. It has most features of 2.1 hdmi and will work we with the next gen consoles which can use hdmi 2.1 and the samsung has the features of 2.1 anyway.
Most people wont need or use hdmi 2.1 which will only be good for 8k sources as yet nothing uses 2.1 apart from the new consoles coming and samsung has you covered there no problems. Freesync and the features of 2.1 are there to make use of these consoles.
So why do you need hdmi 2.1?
@@denodan For 4K 120Hz gameplay and 8K 60Hz. You don't make sense are you talking about HDMI 2.0?
HDMI Specification 2.1 feature highlights include:
Higher video resolutions support a range of high resolutions and faster refresh rates including 8K60Hz and 4K120Hz for immersive viewing and smooth fast-action detail. Resolutions up to 10K.
Dynamic HDR support ensures every moment of a video is displayed at its ideal values for depth, detail, brightness, contrast and wider colour gamuts-on a scene-by-scene or even a frame-by-frame basis.
The Ultra High-Speed HDMI Cable supports the 48G bandwidth for uncompressed HDMI 2.1 feature support. The cable also features very low EMI emission and is backwards compatible with earlier versions of the HDMI Specification and can be used with existing HDMI devices.
Ultra High-Speed HDMI 2.1 Cable with Label
eARC simplifies connectivity, provides greater ease of use and supports the most advanced audio formats and highest audio quality. It ensures full compatibility between audio devices and upcoming HDMI 2.1 products.
Enhanced gaming and media features ensure an added level of smooth and seamless motion and transitions for gaming, movies and video. They include:
Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) reduces or eliminates lag, stutter and frame tearing for more fluid and better detailed gameplay.
Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM) allows the ideal latency setting to automatically be set allowing for smooth, lag-free and uninterrupted viewing and interactivity.
Quick Media Switching (QMS) for movies and video eliminates the delay that can result in blank screens before content is displayed.
Quick Frame Transport (QFT) reduces latency for smoother no-lag gaming and real-time interactive virtual reality. Firmware upgradeability means future proof new features as released. 8K 120Hz support will be added very soon.
@@FunFunFun8888 hdmi 2.a I think the samsung has. So some of the 2.1 features. Enough features of 2.1 that matter for next gen consoles.
As for 8k on new consoles. Yes would need hdmi 2.1 and eARC to get you dolby atmos. But basically for most people dont need hdmi 2.1.
Think on the q90 tv its accually hdmi 2.0a so supports a lot of hdmi 2.1 features.
Better than LG sk10y?
For sound quality it blows the LG sk10y out of the water. I wanted to like the 2019 LG soundbars b/c I have an LG TV but they don’t even come close to what the HW-Q90r sounds like, both with music and multichannel movie soundtracks.
2020 and there is still no eARC
Not yet, but Samsung promised us a software update.
@@paul8926 where did they promise this?
Erik de Ruiter it was stated on the Samsung website under Community responses.
