Samsung HW-Q70R review

These brothers from a widely-known company Samsung HW-Q70R vs Samsung HW-N850 well-worth your attention. Samsung HW-Q70R has 3.1.2 channels and output power of 330W (overall). Its opponent owns 5.1.2 configuration and 372W (overall). The acoustic beam function is based on a tuned resonating tube that directs sounds to the side and up to the ceiling. There are also three forward speakers, i.e. dialogs are reproduced by the center own speaker. When all these speakers are combined with a subwoofer, you get a multi-channel object sound. The HW-Q70R supports Dolby Atmos and DTS:X in all variants except IMAX Enhanced DTS:X. Samsung HW-Q70R

Samsung HW-N850 review

The set includes the main module and subwoofer. The model provides high quality sound. Declared support for Dolby Atmos and DTS: X technology. The Samsung HW-N850 uses an identical case for the top of the N950, so you get the same minimalist design and the same excellent build quality. You also get the same black finish, with metal grilles at the top, front and side, as well as matte metal edges and a rear panel. The provided remote control is ergonomically designed.

Samsung HW-Q70R pros & cons

Pros

  • Because of identical drivers, it’s easier to move the speakers around the three-dimensional soundstage without noticeably changing character from speaker to speaker
  • Touch sensitive buttons on the soundbar for volume level, inputs, and basically everything you need in a quick layout

Cons

  • I wish this system can guide you through upon “setting up”

Samsung HW-N850 pros & cons

Pros

  • I have to point out that build quality is really top notch, and is very heavy for a sound bar
  • It would eliminate all the complication of setting up multi speakers and wiring them all over the place

Cons

  • Front sound is too havy
