"Control the sound bar with your TV remote and enable 4K Dolby Vision pass-through with HDMI eARC"

Anyone with experience with this soundbar?
Does this model hiss when it's powered on and but no content is playing?
How's the sound quality?

Looking to upgrade mine. Even though I love mine and it sounds great, it only has optical input. I really need the HDMI for the convenience of operating it with one remote.

Picked up the V51-H6 last week for the same price, am not impressed.

Going to pickup this one next week and see how it goes.

No Dolby Atmos and can't be used as a HUB. Not a bad price though if those two things arent a deal breaker

No? Thought it does since description says "Dolby Atmos and DTS:X deliver virtual cinema surround sound from every angle, even overhead"

This provides virtual Dolby Atmos. No upfiring speakers. Think of the Samsung sound bars that are 5.1 but there are no physical speakers outside of the bar.
Better than non-atmos, but worse then if it has upfiring speakers.

Looks like it does have upfiring speakers...

Is this item for sure going on sale for $200 next week? Is it on their website somewhere?

No, they won't be wireless. They will connect via an RCA cable from the back of the sub. Wireless in the sense that if you can tuck the sub away, say, behind a couch or something, you can hide the wires for the surrounds. They're powered by the subs amplifier.
