Samsung SWA-9500S Rear Surround Speakers Query

    Hi

    I have a 65" Samsung Q60B tv wirelessly connected to an Q800B soundbar.

    I'm wondering about adding the SWA-9500S rear surround speakers but the online reviews are very mixed, ranging from "made no difference at all" to "made a huge difference" to "made a subtle difference".

    Can you give me an honest idea of what they might add to my system soundwise bearing in mind I tend to watch more "standard" tv programmes than movies?

    Also what would your best euro price be for these if I do decide to order them?

    Thanks!

    Hi Furiousox.

    Many thanks for the post.

    Unfortunately I seem to get mixed reviews if the the SWA-9500S will be compatible with the Q800B.

    Our own website states: Compatible with HW-Q900A, HW-Q800A & HW-Q700A Soundbars only but other sites list the Q800B (Edit - I'm pretty sure they will work after some reading up)....

    When adding in rear speakers it should give a more immersive experience for movies but not so much for standard television unfortunately. Although if a programme is broadcast in Dolby Digital then you should notice the rears workings.

    I personally haven't heard the SWA-9500S in action but I have heard other soundbars with rear setups and they have been good.
