The Samsung Music Studio 7 is a Wi-Fi speaker that delivers powerful 3.1.1-channel audio for both hi-res music playback (up to 24-bit\/96kHz) and Dolby Atmos 3D audio, all from a single unit. <\/span><\/p>\n It can also wirelessly connect to Samsung TVs and soundbars through Samsung\u2019s Q-Symphony technology to act as front- or rear-side surround speakers. According to Samsung, you can connect up to five speakers to a TV or 10 speakers to each other.<\/p>\n Samsung Music Studio 7 – $499<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n The <\/span>$299 Samsung Music Studio 5 speaker<\/a> is a flatter speaker that works over both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. Although this speaker only produces 2.1-channel sound, powered by two tweeters and a 4-inch woofer, that\u2019s still pretty impressive for how thin this speaker is.<\/span><\/p>\n Samsung claims it also optimizes the speaker\u2019s sound profile with AI Dynamic Bass Control. I personally love how the concave dish on the speaker serves as both a functional waveguide and a design aesthetic. The Samsung Music Studio 5 is also available in a variety of colors, including orange, yellow, and green, as well as the more neutral black and white options.<\/p>\n Samsung Music Studio 5 – $299<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n Samsung\u2019s flagship <\/span>$1,999 HW-Q990H<\/a> soundbar is also now available. It still features the same 11.1.4-channel, dual-8-inch woofer configuration as last year\u2019s Samsung HW-Q990F. The actual upgrade this year\u2019s model brings is Sound Elevation, which pitches the center channel upwards slightly so it sounds like dialogue is coming directly from your TV rather than below it.<\/span><\/p>\n Samsung also promises that its Auto Volume feature will save you from reaching for the remote during every commercial break by keeping the volume consistent. We also experienced a demo in which the Samsung HW-Q990H, set to 30% volume, matched the power of the <\/span>Sonos Arc Ultra<\/a><\/strong> at 50% volume.<\/span><\/p>\n Samsung HW-Q990H – $1,999<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n If $2000 is too much for a soundbar, consider the <\/span>$1,099 Samsung HW-Q800H<\/a>. It\u2019s a more standard 5.1.2-channel soundbar, but you still get full Dolby Atmos support. It also includes Samsung\u2019s new Sound Elevation feature to lift and position dialogue closer to the screen.<\/span><\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/$s_!IikW!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd30dd920-f06a-4e6d-8571-157ac89163ef_4240x2832.jpeg\")
