As far as the soundbsr is concerned, youtube or Netflix are from the same source, eg the hdmi port.

Only the media player ( eg the TV or the TVbox ) can differentiate YouTube from Netflix.

Soundbar without rear speakers, are they good enough for Dolby Atmos ?

Is ok, because most of tthe atmos upfiring speakers are on the main bar.

I read that they are firing to the ceiling and let it bounce back to reach the audience. So the effect would be dependent on the ceiling height ? If ceiling is high, the effect would be poor ?

I got Samsung Q950a, to be honest don't expect much from height channel with bounce but rear speaker is important.

correct, depending on your ceiling height and seating postion

Hard to get good effect from the height channel ....That being the case, would it be better just get a basic 5.1 system with rear speakers such as a Sony Ht-S40R ?

What do you guys think?

I think Sony Ht-S40R dont support dolby atmos and dts X . How?

That's the "argument". Since the benefits of virtual Dolby Atmos and virtual DTS are low, so just skip them, get the real DTS only. Does HT-S40R support the "traditional" DTS ?

May I know where did u buy the stand for Q950A rear speakers?

I just realized that as soon there are rear speakers, cables and location/placement for the speakers become a big mess.

Hi guys. I'm looking for soundbar for movie purposes with good sound clarity.

Any recommendations?

hi all..looking for soundbar with sub

creative stage v2 vs xiaomi 2.1 soundbar...which one better?

What is the difference between Samsung HW-Q600B/XM vs HW-Q700B/XM ? On paper, the Q700 is actual less power ( 320W ) than the Q600 ( 360W ), but it is a few hundred more expensive.

Hi, I just booked a Sony HT- Z9F display set with some facial cover net damages for RM1.5K and its come with 5 years warranty. The booking is only valid until coming Monday.

Currently I still have the Yamaha RVX 657 system + whaferdale speakers and I thought it's much convenient to go with sound bar which I mainly watch astro and netflix.

My only concern is this sound bar is old and was launched 4 years ago. Should I go for it?

Personally i won’t

Mind to share why I shouldn't go for it. I know the sound from soundbar can't beat my current AV old system but it's convenient and offer much flexibility to position the subwoofer.
Also provide Atmos sound effects.

I use wall mount

Samsung Q600b a good option to have a little bit of Atmos experience? Couldn't find much reviews online about it yet, mostly on the Q600a model.
