Quote from ManedWolf :
Truth told, most current soundbars do not have full HDMI 2.1 support. After all the research I did, the brand-new Samsung HW-Q990D does and that's about the only one I know.

If you use eARC (not just ARC) I believe you will be good. However, check here.
https://www.rtings.com/soundbar/r...g/hw-q990c

Thanks, yeah it looks like it supports them all both with ARC and the input. Curious if it plays back lossless or compresses it before playback. I'm not too concerned.

In addition to the HDMI 2.1/4k 120hz passthrough -

"It's now a Roon-certified device, giving folks who use the Roon media management and playback service the ability to control the soundbar from any phone, tablet, or computer that runs the Roon app.

Samsung has also made improvements to its Q-Symphony sound system, which lets select Samsung products such as soundbars and TVs share the responsibility of reproducing sound.

A new Active Voice Amplifier Pro feature uses deep learning to separate the voices from the rest of the audio mix on a scene-by-scene basis to keep volumes balanced, while a Party Play mode "broadens the sound profile to let each part of the sound system play a balanced profile" for larger gatherings.

Samsung has also added a new type of nighttime mode that turns off frontal audio, piping the main soundtrack to the surround speakers instead for a quieter, less dynamic listening experience."

If so, sorry to hear that. I ordered this myself earlier, including a referral code, for $758 plus tax.

Quote from jmunjr :
Since this model does not have HDMI 2.1, when using ARC/eARC, will this sound bar play back Dolby True HD or DTS HD Master streams in their native, lossless formats? If not, will it play back in native lossless when plugged into an input on the sound bar?

Thx
I don't believe so via earc but I could be wrong. I think it has to be plugged directly into the sound bar for those formats.

That said, and it could just be my tvs/config but with two different TV's and good quality HDMI cables, I had random issues trying to use earc with higher bandwidth audio tracks including Atmos when attempting via earc vs direct to soundbar. I have a q990b, so could also be model related, but recommend direct to soundbar if 120hz @4k isn't needed.

Aside from that, absolutely love this soundbar. Very much "set it and forget it" for great surround sound without much setup/cabling/tuning needed.

Not sure if you can still bundle this with a TV or not. I picked up a 85" Class Samsung Neo QLED 4K QN90C last week for $1728 including a 10% off from chat. When bundled with the TV the HW-Q990C 11.1.4 was $660

May do just that. How long do these EPP accounts last once created?

I have the 990B and absolutely love it. If you are looking for top of the line sound bar, this is it IMO. (I use it strictly for earc)
