Samsung HW-C450 2.1ch Soundbar w/DTS Virtual X, Subwoofer Included, Bass Boost, Adaptive Sound Lite, Game Mode, Bluetooth, Wireless Surround Sound Compatible

Bought this alongside my new PS5 and the sound is just to die for. Incredibly immersive and even though it's a USB to optical connection (PlayStations have notoriously low audio via USB), the sound can get far louder than I'd ever be able to handle. I could not be happier. This is being used on a desktop. Connectivity is very easy and straightforward. Note that your only physical connection options for this bar are USB, HDMI, & optical. No digital (meaning 3.5mm headphone jack). This thing is quite large, so be mindful of that. 100% worth the money. If reading other reviews, please be aware that there are multiple products being sold under this one item. This review is SPECIFICALLY for the HW B400F. A lot of the complaints you'll see are for the other models.

I will have to say, for this cheap of a sound bar the sound quality is pretty good. I have all Samsung TVs. Although it doesn't sound as good as my $600 Samsung soundbar it is really good for the price. Jthe built in subwoofer is solid for what it is.

Very pleased with the soundbar. Easy to install with my TV. Design is nice and very compact and sound is good. I would definitely recommend to my family and friends. I would also re-buy this product again so far no issues.

I ordered this to replace a 10 year old Klipsch SB1 sound bar that finally gave out, the system was shipped only in it's factory packaging which doesn't provide much protection from banging around in a UPS truck all day, understandably mine was damaged cosmetically so I'm returning it, it should probably be shipped inside of another box. But since it was already opened, I went ahead and hooked it up to see how it sounded. I connected via the HDMI ARC cable (not provided) to my Samsung TV, it recognized the sound bar immediately and performed flawlessly. It automatically worked with the Samsung TV remote, however it did come with it's own remote that has some added functions to it. An improvement from my previous set up is that when the sound bar is turned off, it automatically turns on the TV sound and automatically turns off the TV sound when the sound bar is turned on. The sound bar itself looks clean and modern and the wall mount brackets are provided in the box, the subwoofer has a dated look with a cloth cover on the front, but did connect to the sound bar no problem. If you are coming from just TV sound, this will be a huge improvement for you. In my case, replacing my old one (which was significantly more expensive) it wasunder whelming on the sound output, the quality is there, it just doesn't fill the room the same. If it hadn't been damaged in shipping, I probably just would have kept it, but since it was, I'll be returning it and searching for one more comparable to the one it's replacing. I paid $227 for this one, marked down from $447, It's worth $227 I would have returned it if I gave $447 for it and had the sound quality/ fulness that it has.

Great. As promised, my husband can now listen to his action movies at inappropriate levels so that I want to leave the room.🤣 purchase at your own risk!

I have had 5 different sound bars and Samsung is the best one I’ve owned. You can hear the difference easily.

The media could not be loaded. One Star - Major Issues with Samsung C450 Soundbar BundleI am extremely disappointed with my purchase of the Samsung C450 soundbar and subwoofer bundle. My experience has been nothing short of frustrating and a complete waste of time.Upon receiving the first unit, I immediately noticed a significant issue with the subwoofer. It sounded as if the speaker was completely blown, producing a terribly muffled and distorted sound. This made the entire audio experience unbearable.I contacted Samsung customer support for assistance. To their credit, they did arrange for a replacement unit to be sent. However, this is where the problems escalated.The second soundbar and subwoofer arrived, and to my dismay, the subwoofer simply would not connect to the soundbar. I spent several days troubleshooting, following all the instructions in the manual, but to no avail. I contacted Samsung support again, and this time I was told that the subwoofer was not compatible with the soundbar I received. This is absolutely unacceptable, considering this was a bundle that was sold together as a complete audio solution! It wasn't a case of me mixing and matching separate components.While I must admit that the sound quality of the soundbar itself was decent, especially compared to the built-in speakers of my Samsung television, this positive aspect is completely overshadowed by the non-functional subwoofer. The entire point of purchasing a soundbar with a subwoofer is to enhance the bass and overall audio depth. Without a working subwoofer, the system is essentially incomplete and fails to deliver on its promise.Connecting the soundbar to my TV via Bluetooth was straightforward, which is the only positive thing I can say about this entire experience. However, the persistent and ultimately insurmountable issue with the subwoofer has completely soured my opinion of this product.I will be returning this second defective unit and will be looking at alternative brands for my audio needs. I am genuinely baffled as to how Samsung is selling bundles with incompatible components. I would strongly advise potential buyers to steer clear of the Samsung C450 soundbar bundle. My experience has been a complete letdown, and I cannot recommend this product in its current state.

We bought a Bose sound bar and woofer system 12 years ago for $1500. It finally quit working. We bought this Samsung unit for $177 and quite frankly it has better overall sound and much clearer dialogue. Great unit for the price point. The led readout is a bit hard to see from a distance but hardly a deal-breaker.
