I don't really have a basis for comparison but so far, I am totally satisfied with this soundbar. It looks and sounds great and it's relatively easy to use.

Very happy with my purchase as It match design of my 4K SUHD 48 JS8500 TV . Set up was very easy through HDMI ARC output ( best sound) and all remote controls were in sync. Subwoofer is wireless and blend with sound bar. I wish manual gave more info about placement so I kept it close to the TV stand with woofer facing the wall. I like the Cinema mode best with clear voice and adequate lip syncing. Somehow sound bar adjusts automatically at 100ms time delay. Overall sound is really good for TV usage but of course cannot match a high end audio system for music.

The Samsung Soundbar connects to my Samsung 60 TV using sound connect, no cables or wires required though it supports HDMI, BT, Wifi, DLNA, Optic. Also plays multi formats, has a smartphone app to connect, also can be controlled via Samsung Remote better than Bose', LG, JBL at unbelievable price points from Appliances Online, highly recommended online store, price was the lowest, delivery quickest, product was zest right.
