I wanted to find something compact yet powerful enough to hear music/movies from my 32-inch Smart monitor which I just purchased. Let’s face it – smart monitors (or TVs) have miserable sounds with tiny sounds coming from behind or underneath the monitor. Then I came across this product and it has been an awesome experience so far. What I really liked about these things:1. Design – Very sleek, minimalist design which compliments any living space. Its slim profile fits perfectly under the monitor ( I have a 32-inch smart monitor) making it an ideal choice for smaller rooms or home office. But don’t let this size fool you – this soundbar packs a punch.2. Key Features -*Dolby Atmos and DTS:X support: cinematic sound with virtual Dolby Atoms and DTS:X. Whether you are watching movies or listening to music, the S60B delivers expansive surround sound.*Wireless Spatial Audio – If you own a compatible Samsung TV or Smaart PC monitor (from 2022 or newer), you are in for a treat. You can wirelessly connect the soundbar to your TV/monitor without any cables!*Control options – Use the SmartThings app for easy setup and control. Plus, enjoy voice assistants like Alexa and Google Assistant.3. Sound quality – It impressed me with its neutral sound profile. Voices and lead instruments come through crystal clear. With 5.0 channel surround sound, it’s perfect for movie nights and music sessions. While some audiophiles might notice minor shortcomings, the overall experience is fantastic for a smart PC monitor!Pros:*Big Sound – Don’t let the size fool you.*Virtual Dolby Atmos and DTS:X*Wireless connectivity: Wireless Dolby Atmos set up with Samsung TVs, Spotify connect, and Apple Air Play, and more.Cons:*Limited Dynamic Range and Bass: You can always connect a subwoofer if you want more bass.*Only one HDMI port (no eARC)*Wireless Dolby Atmos connection restricted to Samsung TVs.Verdict:I think this product strikes a balance between performance and affordability. If you are part of the Samsung ecosystem, this soundbar is a no-brainer. For others, it’s still an excellent choice, offering precise sound and lots of features – **All at a great price ( now it’s down to less than $230). If anyone cross-checking with Sonos Ray/Beam 2 or Bose 500 soundbar, this S60B is worth comparing for your smart investment.

OverallIt is overtly designed for a smaller place and limited budget of home theater. Given it is not a premium soundbar, the sound coverage and sound quality are unexpectedly good.Dolby Atmos / DTS Virtual:X – it worksDolby Atmos sends the sound to listening position via the ceiling, plus the DTS Virtual:X that “alternate” an virtual surround sound without rear speakers, tested and they both work for our ears, although the given choices of connectivity doesn’t make it easy for us (see below).AVA – it’s clearThe built-in Centre Speaker and the exclusive AVA (Active Voice Amplifier) does make dialogues and even whisper in movies sound clear and sync well.Airplay / Tap-Sound – it’s goodBeen tested Airplay, streaming music via Wi-fi and Bluetooth, proper functioning, and Tap-Sound works like magic as well.Voice feedback – it’s disturbingTried Alexa, like another comment said, it’s way too loud for a small living room, so we switch it off. Personally, I don’t like voice input or hearing voice output from the device as feedback for mode conversions, fortunately we can use the APP to bypass the voice operation.HDMI CEC – it’s not perfectHDMI CEC works well, somehow it contradicts other CEC that have been paired between our Shield TV and LG TV (a.k.a simplelink in LG), so we compromised to keep it running with the S61B’s remote.Connectivity – it’s a bit complicatedThere is a known issue we choose to accept before purchasing, a fact that S61B provides ONLY ONE HDMI port, not like other brands soundbar they have two HDMI ports you will have one for HDMI eARC and another one does HDMI with passthrough as Box >HDMI> Soundbar >HDMI> TV or Box >HDMI> TV >HDMI> Soundbar, We first tried Optical instead — not good as it will disable Dolby Atmos (opti do not transmit Atmos metadata). We were worrying that Bluetooth may be incapable of maintaining zero delay synchronizing audio with video, at last it proves that we worried too much. Box >Bluetooth> Soundbar + Box >HDMI> TV works fine. We were told it can be resolved by replacing our LG TV with a Samsung TV, as the soundbar can connect with Samsung TV without further wiring. Regarding Samsung’s Q-Symphony technology, the soundbar would pair with an Q-series Samsung TV without further connection and provides an unique experience to hear playback from TV and soundbar simultaneously. Before that if we do not give up on the obessive desire to replace Bluetooth with HDMI, we still can try our luck on a splitter (like samsung’s One Connection Box) — in another word, it is an unresourceful complication caused by limited option, in which an extra HDMI port could easily resolve — looks like a design on purpose to promote their ecosystem rather than cost saving.Expandability – it’s fancyTo complete the experience S61B can be further connected (through cable and separated power plug) with subwoofer SWA-W510 and the rear speaker SWA-9200S (sold separately) to create a home theater system. In future we may want to consider these as to give further push toward home-theater experience, for now, we are overly easy to be satisfied, we probably choose to upgrade our TV first when it aged further.As a personal choice – it worth the moneyOur decision to buy this soundbar was triggered by the fact that we purchased an Nvidia Shield TV pro and upgraded the Lan cable and experienced stunning 4K video, we realized we wanted to spend a little more to appease our listening experience. Learned from friends of Hi-fi (high fidelity) enthusiasts that every further level of accurate sound reproduction of high end stereos and ranges, as to retain sample rate and bit depth that can be lost during digital to analog conversion process, they would demand deep pocket investment that cost more than luxury vehicles. Some people recognize themselves and find their soul in music, some found theirs in movie watching, I don’t think S61B is made for fellows on the fanatical side of high fidelity pursuit. As an all-in-one choice for movie watching, S61B will not sound as good as a high fidelity audio set or any other music playback oriented soundbar, but as a low-price upgrade apart from TV audio, its quality of experience is amazing.

I bought this to replace a decade old Samsung soundstand. Overall it has met my expectations. The sound is a little trebly, and the bass isn’t as strong as my old soundstand, but the sound is very clear. The dedicated center speaker is nice, and the dialog boost option works very well. It also gets much louder than the soundstand, so unless you’re using it in a massive space the volume shouldn’t be a problem.Setup was easy, it was up and running in no time. I have had the ARC drop out randomly once, but that was fixed by cycling the inputs. It’s something I’m keeping an eye on, but hasn’t been a persistent issue so far.I consider it a good upgrade to my old setup.

Sound is well balanced across the frequency spectrum. Lows are tight and punchy for what this is. fills the entire room with sound. elegant design in white, comes with the wall mounting hardware, and works great with a Samsung TV running Dolby ATMOS. It’s a keeper.

I didn’t realize what we were missing until we bought this all in one 5.0 soundbar (hooked up to an LG 75″ TV). But then the groundbreaking moment was after adding the additional SWA-9200S side/rear speaker set, which legitimately add another dimension of sound. There is normal surround sound, which is great, but then when you add $75 open box SWA-9200S extra speakers (set their volume to maximum manually in the ‘smart things’ app) + set DTS Virtual X mode = a ENTIRE next level of a home theater experience. My wife and I intentionally pick out horror and action films with intense DTS/Atmos audio, since sometimes we can literally hear noises/creaks/atmosphere behind, above or in specific areas of the room that wasn’t as obvious before adding the additional side speakers to this soundbar. I don’t even think Samsung advertises enough how good they are for being incredibly compact! I swear that sometimes it makes voices or effects that feel like they are up at the ceiling or whooshing across us (behind or in front). The best way I can describe it is its surround sound within surround sound (fooling your mind more intensely). We can’t stop watching movies with this setup now. The soundbar alone is pretty good/impressive, but ADDING the optional side speakers brings the experience to an 11/10. Again, use the smart things app to easily change settings without needing the remote (much easier).

I love it, It sounds so good, like I have a total surround sound type atmosphere. Recommend it.

Arrived exactly as described and advertised. Thank you for the quality product!

Did not expect the sound quality to be full sounding from high to low frequency. I am very satisfied with the product in such a minimalist design but huge in functionality. I purchased another one direct from Samsung which was on sale for $179 during December 2023

Great sound in a very low profile soundbar. Make sure you connect with SmartThings for more features.
