Samsung HW-Q90R vs Samsung HW-N950

Samsung HW-Q90R review

The unit can boast the presence of 7.1.2 channels and 512W (overall) output power. The system uses the virtualization method to get closer to surround sound, but the result is not very impressive. Thus, if we consider the Dolby Atmos HW-Q90R soundbar in this direction, it can be argued that individual speakers per channel allow you to correctly “display” the surround sound field. On the front panel there are six woofers and three tweeters, large speakers are located on both sides, plus two more of the previously mentioned speakers in the upper part. Wireless rear speakers in terms of sound have some advantages.

Samsung HW-N950 review

It is distributed with support for DTS:X and Dolby Atmos formats. On top of this this model has the power of 512W and 7.1.4 built-in channels. The HW-N950 soundbar is slightly larger than its predecessor, and just as simple in design, with side drivers on the end caps and a new centrally located control panel. And these are the only changes visually noticeable. To install the soundbar requires a sufficiently wide pedestal, but you can also mount it on the wall. Wireless speakers and a subwoofer are automatically connected to the soundbar, but you just need to follow the order specified in the manual (first a subwoofer, then satellites, then a soundbar).
