I currently have a Sonos ray but don't enjoy it all that much. Would getting the Samsung be better or worse?

Finally went away from the soundbar

I have had the Samsung S50B for the last two years. As far as sound stage there is no comparison but I did like the dialogue of the S50B after enabling voice clarity. Ironically it got better after adding my Roku leveling setting. Now I'm on Elac speakers and an Onkyo avr and there is zero clarity a

Best soundbars under $250

If you want a all in one solution, I think the Samsung S50B is a really nice 3.0 system with good dialog.

Sound Bar recommendation

The Klipsch 200 or Samsung HW-S60D are your best options in your price range. The Klipsch will run you about $350 (on sale) and the Samsung $280. Klipsch is a 3.1.2 system, Samsung is a 5.0 system. If you need one a little less expensive, I'd go with 1. Sonos Ray 2. Samsung HW-S50B 3. Bose TV Speake

Samsung HW-S50B Power On Issue

Guten Tag! I got called in for tech support for my parent's TV - It's a Vizio and they have a HW-S50B sound bar. When they turn the TV on, no sound out of the soundbar. Power-cycling the soundbar with the remote works. If we turn the TV off and back on quickly enough, we get audio, but if we let the
