Customers say
Customers find the soundbar’s sound quality excellent, with one mentioning it suits their living room without disturbing neighbors, and they consider it good value for money. The setup process is straightforward, and they like its appearance. The functionality and connectivity receive mixed reviews – while some say it works well, others report it stops working periodically and doesn’t pair with Samsung subwoofers. The volume control is problematic, with customers noting they can’t adjust it properly, and while it starts with good volume, some mention it becomes very weak over time.

It’s a beautiful piece of art.
On its own its gorgeous but it is not an Atmos setup as advertised on Amazon. Covered in a cross Grey fabric with hidden lights and stylish controls right on top, as apposed to hard black plastic. It alone looks like a piece of art. The virtual immersing sound fills the room with a punch that comes from everywhere. Along with the vocal clarity of the center speaker and flawlessly paired with the s9100 wirelessly paired rear speakers and you are covered in virtual dtx sound. Yea … that’s not the one I got. Mine had to have the power plug removed for 5 seconds then reinstalled to get the unit to see the HDMI-ARC connection that had the be performed every time the unit turned on. Pairing to the rear speakersbwas automatic but the advertised control of rear speakers didn’t happen. There were just too many glitches to justify keeping such a sweet sounding piece of art. Perfect for a mid size livingroom or bedroom. Remote is straight forward. It will also control libraries of music and i believe samsung TVs. But the unit glitched controling rear speakers as advertised. Samsung support tried with a firmware update but did not provide the cure to the problem so I reluctantly returned it and stepped up the ladder to the HW-A700. With luck it will perform as advertised without problems.So…affordable impressive sounding system that looks gorgeous with plenty of volume to immerse you in beautiful sound I hope to be specific to my glitch, but, after that it was heaven.

Good for room and smaller living room
This samsung soundbar HW-S60A is smaller compare to other soundbar and this has more speakers than the usual soundbar.5 channels including dedicated center speaker for voices when watching TV and movies.I find this soundbar to be great for what I want. This is perfect for rooms and small living room.The base is good enough but not explosive, depending on the music, the bass will be much more present.The details that this soundbar is great because I can hear additional instruments in music and hear outside noises when watching movies. This is due to the 5 channels adding additional imagery and wider sound.Here are my recommendations.There is no sound mode level indiciator (treble,bass, and etc) but I counted 12 levels.I would put treble at zero or level 1 and put bass on level 5 or 6 depending on your preference.Also, keep it at adaptive sound for brighter sound and better clarity. Adaptive sound is great that will automatically switch setting if it detects, movies, music or TV.Positive1. When going through, sound mode, there is a voice that will tell you if it’s treble or bass, which is great so no need to look at the soundbar.2. Great sound and clarity due to more than just 3 speakers.3. Good enough bass.4. Small size5. Clear and concise remoteNegative1. No levels or indicator for volume and settings.2. if you need more bass then this will not please you but it can be connected to a samsung subwoofer wireless.3. The soundbar is priced fair at $300 but do not buy it more than that.Overall, this soundbar brings clarity, details and a wide sound for rooms and small living room. While it lacks explosive bass, it makes up by being smaller and engaging sound due to the multiple sest of speakers in the soundbar.

Lacks Punch, but Mostly a Positive Experience
I bought this to replace a TCL Alto 8i I’d purchased recently, as I was fed up with the TCL soundbar’s aggressive power-saving mode that regularly cut off dialog. Overall, I’m glad I purchased the Samsung S60A S Series soundbar, even if some aspects of it don’t quite measure up to those of the TCL soundbar.The S60A does feature a power-saving mode, but it doesn’t kick in until 18 minutes have passed with no sound passing through the device, at which point it turns off. In that respect, it’s pretty reasonable.I have a Samsung KS8000 TV, and I was initially using the S60A soundbar through HDMI 4, which supports ARC. I eventually ended up switching to optical, as I was experiencing periodic HDMI issues, and my TV would sometimes switch back to its own internal speakers without me noticing it. How did I not notice you, you may ask? Well, while the soundbar DOES sound better than my TV’s internal speakers to some extent, it’s hard to tell the difference when the volume is low, especially since this soundbar simply lacks the “punch” of the TCL soundbar.One thing you WILL notice this S60A soundbar probably has over your TV’s speakers is that it has a dedicated center channel for dialog, which allows dialog to stand out more without forcing you to rely on a dedicated balancing mode for dialog. Unfortunately, the soundbar lacks any such balancing mode, which means you’re out of luck if you want normalized audio.Speaking of audio volume, when plugged into the ARC port of my Samsung KS8000 TV, I was pleased to see that the volume level for the soundbar was reflected on screen when I used my TV’s remote to adjust the volume. Oddly, the same wasn’t true when I used the soundbar’s remote to adjust volume, and it certainly wasn’t true when I switched over to optical.Given the fact that you can adjust the volume from 0 to 100, I find the lack of volume indicator on the soundbar itself really unfortunate, especially since it clearly has LEDs that animate when you adjust the volume but only to indicate that the volume is changing.By the way, if you have your TV mounted high, such as over a fireplace or something, then you may want to seek out a different soundbar, as this one doesn’t seem to pick up the signal from the remove from positions that’re much lower than that of the soundbar itself.Overall, this is a good soundbar, though I definitely suggest seeking out something else if you want something with some bass, as this soundbar simply doesn’t deliver in that respect.

Good Sounding Soundbar
My wonderful wife Peggy got me this for Christmas 2021. We have a Samsung TV so it synched up immediately out of the box with no configuring. The Soundbar works very well voice and background music or background action noises with different movies and TV Shows. A lot of the time with the sound I think I hear something in another area of the room or house or sometimes noise coming from outside, but it is actually coming from the Soundbar, like some kind of stereo sound effect. This Soundbar works and sounds very well.

Si tienes una TV Samsung como en mi caso que tengo una Q oled de 50 pulgadas, es una excelente alternativa. Se conecta muy fácil se integra muy bien con la TV. Mejora sustancialmente el sonido que viene de fábrica. Estoy satisfecho

Enlaza directamente con el monitor neo qled y es buen sonido, manejable con un solo control.Muy estético y ligero con buena conectividad en HDMI Arc, óptico y Bluetooth, con indicadores led en la parte superior, muy visibles aunque el acabado es de tela, elegante por cierto.
