700b vs 800b comparison. I'm testing in a large open space with 22ft ceilings because that's where my samsung QN900a is.

Aesthetics
So the 700b bar is like jet black and the 800b has more of a charcoal color. Both look good. They are the same length but the 700b is slightly shorter in terms of height and the ends are just capped whereas the 800b has the side firing speakers at the far reaches of the unit. As for the subs they are night and day design wise. The 800b looks more modern and is obviously larger compared to the 700b

Sound
Alright so I tested both systems on hdmi earc with Q symphony enabled. I put on a movie called underground 6 on Netflix which has atmos. I ran the same car chase scene like 10x on each one. My conclusion is this: Both bars (in my space) sound VERY similar. The subs, despite the size, aren't that far off from each other. I'm not sure the 800b is worth the $479 price tag I paid (which is the lowest it's ever been) so it's still double the $239 of the 700b. Simply put Im not getting double the sound value or even close. It's like a 15% better sound from the 800b on the bar maybe a 20% increase on the sub. Definitely not enough for someone like me to really notice. Kind of disappointed that the performance is this alike because I wanted my 800b to win.

Your results might very depending on your room setup. Since I'm in wide open space the side firing speakers might not even be doing justice in the 800b and could sound a lot better than the 700b if I was in an enclosed space. You'll have to fk around for yourself. The 800b is going back and I'm buying a second 700b for the same price of the single 800b

Settings:
Center channel 3
Top firing max at 6
Side firing 3 (800b)

Woofer+treble max at 6

Any thoughts on which to pick between Q700B and S60B?
S60B downmixes the upward firing channels to stereo and does not have discreet upward drivers.

Had the S60B. I'm no audiophile but while the sound was ok to me, bass was lacking. It replaced an older Vizio 2.1 system I had. Placed an order for the Q700B hoping it gives a better sound experience (mainly for movies). For $100 more it may be a better deal. Will return the S60B.

Same situation. Just ordered the Q700B. Will test it out and keep the one with better output.

Just got my Q700B delivered and installed today. I`ve paired them with SWA-9500S rear speakers making my setup 5.1.4. and ohh boy this is awesome.

I have tested the setup with dolby-test-tones_5_1_4.mp4 file ( do not use YOUTUBE ) which plays each channel individually and it works perfect! The 4 dedicated upfiring speakers work really good for me with 9,6f ceailing and having the bar mounted ~1/2 half way.

Definitively recommend 9500S in stead of 9200S or even 9100S the difference is big.

Also do not forget to use HDMI 2.1 cable and make proper setup. In my case as I have older Samsung 4K TV my NVIDIA Shield Pro 2019 is connected directly to the soundbar and from soundbar to the TV. My TV would not be able to passthrough Atmos to the speakers.

make sure you test your setup to make sure you can pass though ATMOS to the speakers. Many devices/TVs downmix the sound.

I have both. The S60B sounds great, really crisp and clear. A significant upgrade over the TV speakers. It's not going to have the bass of the Q700. It's more discreet and less noticeable in the room. The Q700 bar is a behemoth in comparison, like twice the size. It will give you a more complete HT experience. Buy the Q700B for a main TV that you watch a lot of movies on and the S60B for a secondary bedroom TV.

How much were the 9500s? Seems a little steep at $299

Does Q700B have spacefit. I was checking the manual and it says that: "The Spacefit sound and AVA functions are not supported by Q700B model"

A couple things to add:
- If you use Perks at Work, there is an extra 6% back in their tokens
- Paypal has a digital wallet deal for 4% cash back from Samsung.com (until Nov 14). It's not clear if soundbars are excluded
- If you bundle this with a TV you can save more money off the $240 price, and get an xbox controller


Example bundle ($1889.98):
- Samsung 65" S95B: $1709.00
- Q700B Soundbar + Sub: $179.99
- Xbox Controller (included)
- $113.39 in Wow points (perks at work tokens)
- $75.59 PayPal rewards (cashable)

Edit: The Samsung return policy is also 15 days (this will get you through Black Friday if there are any price changes)
so if i use my paypal with perks at work i can get the wow points even though paypal isn't linked to my perks account?
