QUOTE(IntensiveBytes @ Feb 26 2023, 02:02 AM) To Q990B users… which speaker stands do you use for your rears? The ones I bought do not work 😭 Screw hole is not tall enough. https://www.lazada.com.my/products/suitable...3131393463.html <———- AVOID! I'm using something like this seller, but I selected the original factory from Samsung option. So far looks good and screwed in well. The base is also quite heavy so I like it.

QUOTE(xxxgkssixxx @ Feb 28 2023, 02:41 PM) Is it this one?  I remember the base is round like that. For some reason the price jumped to around RM400 due to it's original samsung factory claim so I try buy je. When I balik I try snap a few pics of it. |

This is the link I got it from, and selecting the pricy RM383.  » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « This post has been edited by NickedAsy: Feb 28 2023, 10:09 PM |

QUOTE(xxxgkssixxx @ Feb 28 2023, 10:50 PM) Looks good… but ya it's kinda pricey 😅 By the way may I know what's the length of Q990B rear speaker cable? I was told that it's very short and might need an extension if there's no socket nearby. Super short, because I mati mati wanted the cable the travel inside the pipe, so by the time it came out that's about the distance it can connect to my wall on the leftmost plug you see without over stretching the cabling. |

QUOTE(xxxgkssixxx @ Mar 1 2023, 01:41 PM) I see. Then how did you place one of the rear speaker at the other side of the room? It's on the other side of my hall so I already had a plug there, else just drag one extension and cucuk there. QUOTE(minano0001 @ Mar 1 2023, 01:57 PM) Yes the cable is super short maybe 1.5m only Sorry I didn't measure it just by looking at it Yeps, +-1.5M length je kot. Many people complained online regarding the length and some bought their own 3rd party L cable from amazon. This post has been edited by NickedAsy: Mar 1 2023, 02:30 PM |

QUOTE(IntensiveBytes @ Mar 2 2023, 04:27 AM) Thank you for sharing bossku. I'll have to bite the bullet and purchase the Samsung factory option in this case. As there are many sellers selling from Taobao in Lazada, some of the sellers might take a few days to even start packing for some reason, so I just canceled on the 4th-5th day of no activity, and switched to another seller. For the link I gave above, the seller was quite attentive and it arrived in 2 weeks by sea. |

Even the Harvey Norman Q990B display set got sold off according to the salesman. Suddenly got high demand after Q990C came out.

QUOTE(n0th1n @ May 8 2023, 07:02 AM) bro, how long this stand will arrive Malaysia? mine ordered 24th April and today still nowhere to be found. latest update is 30th april : Departed from Origin Country - Your parcel is on the way to Malaysia If it's the same as mine, it should be via ocean to save their shipping costs. Should take about 1 week+ and probably less than 2 weeks to arrive. |

QUOTE(xxxgkssixxx @ Jul 20 2023, 04:19 PM) For those who purchased Samsung Q990B soundbar, did you buy a new HDMI cable or it is sufficient to use the stock HDMI cable? Does changing HDMI cable make any significant difference in sound (or video) quality? I used the ori cable but eventually got my own 8K Ultra High Speed cable for placebo effects because I found the ori cable thin and my placebo afflicted ears thought the sound sounded weak.  |

QUOTE(xxxgkssixxx @ Dec 4 2023, 11:09 PM) Hi all, for Samsung Q990B rear speakers' extension cable, which kind of plug I should choose? (T1 or T2?)  Shopee Link: https://shp.ee/iihrumnThe rear speakers should be 2 pin, so using T1 should be enough. T2 might not fit if the connector to your speakers are also 3 pin. |

QUOTE(kunimi @ May 27 2024, 01:02 PM) bro how about listening to music? like Jazz This is recorded from my Q990B. Music is acceptable for my ears as the deep bass makes wonders to the melody. I've attached a Kenny G playing in my room, but it might not be as what I'm hearing live. https://mega.nz/file/RNsFlQSb#VBdwOnOYNNW56...vJLKnptTBq4WlrAThis post has been edited by NickedAsy: May 27 2024, 06:41 PM |

QUOTE(hengng @ Mar 14 2025, 04:28 PM) For Samsung Soundbar HW-Q990D users, please DO NOT update the firmware to the latest version 1020 through auto update from Samsung "SmartThings" app! If you have updated to version 1020, your soundbar will most probably bricked, and behave no sound, cannot press buttons on the top to reset to factory default, always display "TV eARC”, "BYE" displays will take longer time to get off.. https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Home-Th...te/td-p/3168571Thanks for the alert. Even though mine is Q990B but I disabled the auto update anyway, including for my S95D. Better switch to manual update after the rest of the world do the test first. |

Thanks… The Q990 series is the flagship so hardly can get below 3k unless buying old model kot. I'm not sure about LG though. |
