Samsung has continuously raised the bar for home entertainment systems over the years, earning its soundbars a reputation for superior sound quality and ground-breaking innovation. Signature features such as Samsung Q-Symphony and SpaceFit Sound have revolutionised the listening experience, offering users a deeply immersive soundscape that is finely tuned to their listening environments.

This standard of excellence has been recognised by industry experts and reviewers, with T3 awarding the HW-Q990C “Best Soundbar” title for its immersive audio and “exceptional object-based sonics,” and HomeTheaterReview giving the soundbar an “Editor’s Choice” distinction and commenting: “It sounds excellent, regardless of what type of content you send its way.”

This year, Samsung continues to push the boundaries with its soundbar lineup, introducing enhanced AI audio features and connectivity options to captivate consumers and home theatre enthusiasts alike.

Powered by AI, the device analyses and synchronises voice channels for clear dialogues and immersive soundscapes across all speakers. Paired with SpaceFit Sound Pro for customised audio calibration, the soundbar also ensures an immersive experience in any space, while HDMI 2.1 and 4K/120Hz passthrough provides connectivity options that meets the demands of modern home entertainment systems.

Samsung continues to bring new innovation to soundbars with the HW-S800D feature packed ultra-slim soundbar, at less than 4cm deep it is designed to fit seamlessly into any space and provides rich and immersive sound. At only a third of the depth of conventional soundbars, the S800D has 10 drivers, including dedicated overhead speakers and a centre channel for crystal-clear vocals and superior sound quality. The combination of a deep bass subwoofer and passive radiator technology enhances the listening experience with deep, distortion-free bass in a compact form factor.

This year, Samsung will also introduce a completely new category of discreet audio tech to its speaker line-up with the Music Frame. This customisable speaker is compatible with SmartThings and provides surround sound when paired with Samsung TVs and soundbars. Music Frame can either operate as a standalone wireless speaker or pair with a Samsung TV and soundbar via Samsung Q-Symphony to augment bass and surround sound. Seamlessly blending into its environment by camouflaging itself inside modern picture frames, Music Frame provides high-quality sound while fitting anywhere into your home.
