I got mine at RM4199 (birthday month RM100 less) with 10% rebate store credit from SenQ.

Love the sound so far. Connected my pc to it playing atmos files from pc and netflix also can pass through atmos.

That's great to know. I'm planning to plug in my pc too. Was wondering if any additional software needed to pass through Atmos. Aside from Netflix, planning to play downloaded files too. I know windows store as a Atmos software. Not sure if needed to buy that to enable pass through.

Is it from retailer? Mind to share the contact?

Not a retailer. It's a friend's contact. I have yet to buy coz the seller say it's currently out of stock. I'll update here once I got it and whether or not the seller will still offer this price in public.

By the way just fyi the seller and I are from Penang.

Hi guys,

Just to update I've finally get the q90r at rm3.6k from a dealer in Penang.
The soundbar setup is as below
PC > (hdmi2) > q90r > (hdmi arc) > q60r TV

A few things to share.
1. Playing Netflix direct from TV manage to output Atmos (Atmos is shown in display). No extra settings needed.

2. However, I was unable to setup Atmos via Dolby Access as my pc somehow can't select Atmos in Sound > spatial settings. Still not yet solve it. Appreciate if any sifu here can help.

3. Both my phone (installed smart things) and q90r connect to same WiFi and manage to update the main unit without prob. Some extra steps needed to ensure woofer and rear get updated as well. There's no guide or notice given in the app to tell you about it.
To update them: Turn the soundbar on, and wait until there is any text on the display, then press and hold the DOWN button on the remote for about 6 seconds until the display shows UPDATE. The display on the soundbar will cycle UPDATE > BYE > ON. This takes about 5 minutes.

4. The reason I'm plugging in to hdmi2 is because I had lipsync issue when using hdmi1. I have yet to try again after updating. Will update you guys again if anyone interested to know more.
