Samsung Announces 2026 Home Audio Lineup with Versatile Music Studio Wi-Fi Speakers and Advanced Q-Series Soundbars

Samsung Electronics America today unveiled its 2026 home audio lineup, featuring an expanded portfolio of design-forward soundbars and Wi-Fi speakers. Headlined by the all-new Music Studio speakers and the next generation of powerful Q-Series soundbars, the lineup gives shoppers more options than ever to create a personalized sound experience.

“At Samsung, we know how important it is that our products deliver premium performance for every space. Every home is different and so are the needs and preferences of every shopper,” said Jim Kiczek, Head of Audio at Samsung Electronics America. “That’s why we’re expanding our Samsung audio lineup in 2026. From the aesthetic-forward Music Studio series to sleek, adaptable Q-Series soundbars — all built with signature Samsung sound that’s helped make us the #1 soundbar brand for 12 years running¹.”

Music Studio WiFi Speakers: Elegant Design, Powerful Sound

The all-new Samsung Music Studio series delivers immersive audio for music, podcasts and TV audio, while perfectly harmonizing with your space. Both Music Studio 7 and Music Studio 5 share a timeless “Dot Design” by renowned designer Erwan Bouroullec. Their sculptural, minimalist form is crafted to integrate seamlessly into your home décor, whether placed on a shelf, mantel or anywhere else that fits your style.

In just a single, beautiful device, Music Studio 7 delivers powerful 3.1.1 channel audio that will feel like it’s coming from every corner of your space. Whether it’s the sound of helicopters flying in the sky, cars whizzing by, or an orchestra in a concert hall, you’ll feel fully immersed with wired or wireless support for Dolby Atmos 3D audio². Plus, Pattern Control technology helps direct sound, reduce distortion and disperse it evenly throughout your space. As a result, your favorite content will sound great no matter where you are in your room.

While smaller in size, Music Studio 5 still offers clear and balanced sound throughout your space. It’s built-in waveguide technology directs and spreads sound evenly across the room, so you’ll enjoy great audio wherever you place the speaker.

Both speakers utilize AI processing to enhance bass performance and tailor sound for your space and content. Specifically, Dynamic Bass Control³ delivers low frequencies without distortion, so sound stays true to the original audio. Plus, SpaceFit Sound Pro makes setup a breeze by customizing audio to the exact dimensions of your room, while Active Voice Amplifier Pro elevates dialogue, so you never miss a scene.

The lineup can be paired with your Samsung TV and soundbar for more robust, detailed audio when watching movies and shows. Samsung Q-Symphony⁴ allows your compatible TV speakers, soundbar and Music Studio speakers to work together in unison for greater depth and immersion.

New this year, Q-Symphony supports pairing up to five Samsung sound devices, helping you craft a home theater setup that’s catered to you. The feature can also automatically adjust sound based on where your speakers are in the room, providing optimal performance whatever your setup.

Music Studio 7 and Music Studio 5 can also wirelessly connect to your devices via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, making it easy to play music, podcasts and more from all your favorite streaming platforms. That includes special integration with Spotify Tap⁵, allows you instantly play music from your Spotify account with a single button press, without ever opening the app.

Samsung Q-Series Soundbars: Elevating Home Theater to New Heights

For the ultimate cinematic experience, Samsung Q-Series soundbars deliver powerful, detailed surround sound across all your content. This year’s lineup includes the HW-Q990H, HW-Q900H, HW-Q800H and HW-QS90H.

The flagship HW-Q990H is our most immersive soundbar yet, with true 11.1.4 channel sound that surrounds you from every angle. Plus, iconic 3D Dolby Atmos sound helps you hear every distinct beat and pulse — just like you would in a theater. And for added flexibility, this soundbar supports Dolby Atmos with or without an HDMI cable.

Its compact dual active subwoofer with AI Dynamic Bass Control⁶ ensures powerful bass, while remaining space efficient. And, AI further personalizes the experience. SpaceFit Sound Pro ensures the ideal sound for your space, using a built-in microphone to analyze your room and automatically adjust sound settings. Adaptive Sound will also recognize the type of content on screen and optimize audio for clearer voices and more detailed content.

And new for 2026, Sound Elevation ensures a more natural and comfortable listening experience by directing sound towards the image on the TV screen. This way, dialogue will sound like its coming from where the characters are positioned versus where the soundbar is placed below your TV. Auto Volume is also now on board to avoid sudden volume jumps when changing through channels, content and streaming services.

As the first all-in-one Samsung soundbar, the HW-QS90H blends premium performance with aesthetic versatility. It delivers deep bass without requiring a separate subwoofer, instead including four woofer built-in. And it delivers great sound whether you place it on your TV stand or mount it to your wall, as its gyro sensor recognizes its position and optimizes sound accordingly.

It’s the ideal solution for those who want a clean, customizable aesthetic without compromising on room-filling 7.1.2 channel sound. Plus, it benefits from the same next-gen AI tuning as the Q990H, including SpaceFit Sound Pro, Adaptive Sound, AI Dynamic Bass Control, Sound Elevation and Auto Volume.

Across soundbars and Music Studio speakers, the new Samsung Sound app⁷ puts you in control of every detail. It lets you manage sound, group speakers, and more, all from one simple interface.

Several models in the 2026 Samsung audio lineup are rolling out now at Samsung.com and retailers nationwide.
