QUOTE(kazukimy @ Oct 9 2019, 09:33 AM) No worries, they do have Enchant Subwoofer if u decided to move around the furniture to accommodate the subwoofer...as at 1st, i dont want the Acoustimass as it spoiled the look of the living room, but after few tweaking, didn't regret it, haha...but still...the Acoustimass' bass...is kinda weak, wakaka Where do you go and test the HK Enchant 1300? The JBL/Harman Studio in Sunway GEO. Tested the Enchant 800 and 1300... to me there was absolutely no difference.. ofcourse the sales person explained its totally different etc etc..  i suppose i can remove the art piece on display and put a subwoofer there.. right next to the TV, good height too..... but ofcourse I would have to prepare sleeping on the couch for a few days  |

QUOTE(FaezFarhan @ Oct 14 2019, 04:01 PM) HW-R650? Models under Rm1k. My tv is 55 inch, NU8000. Better look for Q Series instead. Try out the following HW-Q60R, HW-Q70R, HW-Q80R or HW-Q90R. My fav is HW-Q70R as HW-Q90R is kind bulky. But, if you still prefer HW-R series, I advise you better try HW-N650. It sounds better than HW-R650 It's last year model actually. But, some still sells it https://store.tbm.com.my/samsung-hw-n650-xm-soundbar.html |

Btw Q60R is slight improvement or major? |

As of now, I only manage to find N650 at TBM. By the way, if you considering the need of Dolby Atmos/DTS:X, You should consider Q70R and Above   This post has been edited by cHiLdHo0drEaMz: Oct 15 2019, 01:39 AM |
