    this rear surround speaker does exactly what is advertised however not what you expect. 1. important. this new speaker only works with select (new) samsung sound bars. unlike other surrounds, it has up-firing dolby atmos ability. (on paper) 2. completely wireless as advertised. about the size of a sonos one. 3. sound- provides a subtle (even turned all the way up) surround effect. it does work. however, the difference between having and not having them is... minor. 4. no sound!? if you are watching non-surround content ...

    Hi Anthony G! Thank you for purchasing the Samsung SWA-9500S Wireless Speaker kit to pair with your Samsung soundbar. Your feedback regarding the audio experience is important to us and will be shared with our product teams. Once this kit is connected to a compatible Samsung soundbar, the soundbar remote is then used to control the volume level of the rear kit. Press the Sound Control button on the soundbar remote (looks like a gear), then select REAR LEVEL and use the Up/Down buttons to adjust the volume within a -6 to +6 range. Also, make sure that the source (e.g. TV output) is sending surround channels to the Soundbar. If the source is not capable of surround, then set the Surround mode to OFF on the Soundbar by pressing the Surround button on the remote. If the source has surround channels, select the desired Sound Mode from the Soundbar remote. You might want to try turning off Dynamic Range Control. This is done by pressing and holing the Sound Mode button while the Soundbar is in standby mode. Depending on your soundbar model, you may or may not have DRC. Regarding no sound from the rear speakers, if you set the sound mode to SURROUND, GAME PRO, or ADAPTIVE, you will get surround sound effect from the rear speakers, even if the content is not encoded for surround sound. Should you ever have any questions or concerns or need help with settings or features, please contact Samsung Customer Support at 1-800-SAMSUNG (ask for Soundbars), available 8AM -12AM EST (Mon-Fri), 9AM – 6PM EST (Sat). Or text HELP to 62913. For additional support resources, visit us on the Samsung website and click on the ‘Support’ link in the upper right corner of the homepage for: 1.

    The SWA-9500S wirelessly connects to my Q Series soundbar and provides up firing Atmos and side firing surround sound. The sound is clear and adds extra depth to the viewing experience. My previous surround sound kit required the satellite speakers to be connected via speaker wires to a wireless module, which limited placement of the speakers to the length of the speaker wire. The SWA-9500S solves that problem. Each of the satellite units are truly wireless and have its own power cord, and I prefer this to my previous Sam...

    Hi NOT SAMSUNG FAN, Thank you for sharing your review of the SWA-9500S Wireless Rear Speakers. We value your feedback and will share it with our teams. The SWA-9500S rear speakers include a ¼-20 UNC threaded insert on the back of each speaker for mounting. You’ll need a ¼-inch (6.3 mm) screw, about 18 mm (0.7 inches) long, to attach them to a compatible 3rd party wall mount or bracket. Make sure the mount can support at least 8 kg (17.6 lbs) total weight. If we can help with anything else, please call us at 1-800-SAMSUNG (Ask for Soundbars), 8 AM – 12 AM EST, 7 days a week. Live Chat with an agent as well as manuals, software, creating a service ticket, and warranty info can be found at the ‘Support’ link on our Samsung website. ~ Samsung Solutions

    I returned mine. I had very similar problems as many on this thread. They simply do not put out enough volume when paired with my Q700B Soundbar! I spent over a hour on the phone with a technician and we could not get it to work. The volume remained so low as to be unheard. The Samsung website says it is compatible with the Q700B, but on the product page itself, it says it is compatible with the Q700A soundbar, not the Q700B soundbar. I would be very willing to buy a pair that would work with my Q700B soundbar and woofer. If someone at Samsung could reach out to me, I remain interested as I want it to work.

    Hello Brian, Thank you for sharing your experiences with Customer Service and the SWA-9500S Wireless Rear Speakers. The SWA-9500S is 100% compatible with the HW-Q700B Soundbar. Use the Soundbar remote to adjust the volume of your rear speakers between -6 to +6. You will press CH LEVEL until you see REAR LEVEL and REAR TOP LEVEL. From there use the UP/DOWN buttons to adjust the volume accordingly. Make sure that your TV's Audio Format is set to Auto, Pass Through or Bitstream. If the setting is on PCM, you will experience reduced rear speaker quality as PCM can only output audio in 2.0 channels. Additionally, please be sure you are using a high-speed HDMI cable with an Ethernet Channel (sometimes called HDMI HEC cable). This will ensure that your cable is not hindering any audio between your TV and Soundbar. Lastly, keep in mind that content that is not designed to play in 5.1 or higher will not send individual audio channels to your rear speakers, thus limiting your surround sound experience. Should you ever have questions or need help, please call us at 1-800-SAMSUNG (ask for Soundbars), available 8 AM – 12 AM EST, 7 days a week.

    i ordered the 9500s rear firing speakers to pair with my 2021 q800a soundbar. connected relatively easily, but adjustments were difficult and hard to find. while many of the reviews site compatibility with older soundbars as their main complaint it very clearly states which models this does and does not work with. my main disappointment with these speakers is their very poor/weak drivers and quiet sound at best. and yes i went through all the troubleshooting steps and verified them with customer support over the phone. these speakers look cool enough and are well built, but at $249-300 its not even close to worth it. i...

    Hi Liam, Thank you for purchasing the Samsung SWA-9500S Rear Speaker Kit. We appreciate you sharing your experience with the surround sound system. By design, the surround speakers are supposed to simulate sounds happening behind the viewer. Therefore, most of the time the surround channels are only used for ambient sounds, which are naturally lower in volume. However, there are a few settings you can change to adjust the surround effect to your preference: 1) Make sure that the source (e.g. TV output) is sending surround channels to the Soundbar. If the source is not capable of surround, then set the Surround mode to OFF on the Soundbar by pressing the Surround button on the remote. 2) If the source has surround channels, select the desired Sound Mode from the Soundbar remote. 3) Turn off Dynamic Range Control. This is done by pressing and holding the Sound Mode button while the Soundbar is in standby mode. Depending on your soundbar model, you may or may not have DRC. 4) Increase the volume level of the surround speakers using the Sound Control button on the Soundbar remote control. Press the Sound Control button on the soundbar remote (looks like a gear), then select REAR LEVEL and use the Up/Down buttons to adjust the volume within a -6 to +6 range. I hope these tips help to enhance your audio enjoyment. Should you need further assistance with this issue or have any questions, please contact Samsung Customer Support at 1-800-SAMSUNG (ask for Soundbars), available 8AM - 12AM EST, 7 days a week.

    i honestly don't understand the previous poor reviews for this product. these are designed to be used with 2021 qled tv's and 2021 q soundbars. no point to buy them otherwise. when you use them with compatible products, they are terrific. i am using them with a 2021 samsung 80a-qled and a 2021 samsung q700a soundbar. ---- pros: they pair easily and flawlessly. it took me less then 5 minutes and only 2 steps to pair them to the soundbar. i love that they are truly wireless, with no wires having to go between the speakers. they sit on my endtable and are neat (not messy) with no wires hanging all around. a sepe...

    I wanted to take my movie watching experience to the next level. I have a soundbar but I desired to be totally immersed in my movies. I decided to get the rear speakers and I've been nothing but satisfied. I love hearing planes wiz by my ear or the the birds chirping away. My dog even is surprised when he hears dogs barking. This purchase has surpassed by movie experience and has really made my home theater an immersive experience.
