Hard to imagine the 800 provides 25% better sound for the 25% increase in cost. My guess would be marginal sound. I thought I read some other SDer posting a comparison of the two on an old thread but I can't find it. The user basically said he kept the 700 because sound quality was marginal. This is still tempting for me because I like the white option and slim look but I was also hoping to connect an old Sonos Connect to the optical input so the lack of that might kill the deal for me.

That's not what I said, lol. For esthetics reasons Samsung advertises the S800B would be a good combination for wall hanging with The Frame.
For some reason i was able to buy one today for $354 +tax. (login and used private on my browser)Is this a worth purchase than the $399 klipsch cinema 800?
Edit: Cancelled this order
I purchased hoping my Roku smart TV would connect wireless but having trouble.
If I connect with the HDMI provided cord is there a negative? A few people mentioned the limitations so I'm just trying to understand what else I'd need it for.
What other usages or benefits would additional inputs provide? Am I getting the most out of it if I use the HDMI cord provide and plug it right into the TV?

Using the hdmi is probably the best and easiest method. You're not losing anything. It's just this sound bar can't process some of the higher end codecs. I don't think you have to worry about it unless you're really particular about it, in which case you wouldn't even have bought it in the first place lol
