An additional driver that is side firing (small performance upgrade).

I attached a picture for comparison. Top is Q990B rears and Bottom is 9500s. They look more similar in person as that was just the lighting. Physically, the 990B rears have some tapering of flat sides and a raised look to them.

I don't have them in the same room, I just haven't moved the Q800B and 9500s yet after unboxing.

Dumb question... If you add the 9500s, which are a 2.0.2 kit to this 7.1.2 system, aren't you still short 2 channels when compared to the q990c system?

Don't the 9500s also have to connect to a wireless control module instead of only requiring power, like the 990b rears?

Nope. It connects wirelessly to the soundbar. The only cable connected to the speaker is the power cable. Similar are the rear speakers for the Q930 & Q990 which are wirelessly connected to the soundbar. Only the Q910 rear speakers are connected to a module that, in turn, connects wirelessly to the soundbar..

No, the 9500s are wireless and just need to be plugged in to the wall.

Ugh been watching this forever. Is there a way to get this without edu or ep store?
Yes! I just went through the AAA app and bought it. I signed into and verified myself in my AAA app. Then AAA had me "shop" Samsung. It took me to my Samsung Shop app. I searched HW-Q900C. When it came up it had the $500 price reflected. I added it to my cart and checked out through PayPal.

Thanks OP, I just bought the 800c last week with delivery today. I just got the 900c and will return the other. Was hard to get the deal. Tried 2 browsers on my laptop and Samsung mobile app and it didn't show the price. Finally got the discount to show on my phone browser.

the 990 does not come with the 9500s, it comes with better rears, correct? that's why it's 11.1.4 instead of the combo of 9500s+910 from this deal, right?

but the front unit is the same between the 990 and 910? dimensions on the site look the same

Nice! It's cheaper than the 800C now so it's a no brainer. It's a 2023 model so I wonder why Samsung marked it down so much

Agree.
I checked dimensions myself on website and looks similar. The functions look similar too. No reviews online to verify that it's the same sub and soundbar.
Soundbar classification
First number - number of channels
Second number - subs
Third number - number of up firing speakers
So this unit with 7.1.2 added to 9500s which is 2.0.2 makes 9.1.4
It's better than 910b system which is 9.1.2(no rear up firing)
Compared to 990b/c this lacks rear side firing. Which I don't think makes this a deal breaker.
I ordered this for 500 and used like new 9500s from best buy for 171( don't have any nearby me for 129 as others mentioned. )
Lowest 990b has been without a tv bundle was $800.
For $671. I think I can let go rear with side speakers.

For those choosing to mount this at the bottom of your tv, please share which mount you chose to purchase and if it worked out well for you. Would really appreciate any input on this.

Can someone please explain how you can get more than 2.1 channels (left, right, sub) out of a sound bar and sub?

I have two expensive sound bars (a previous generation version of this sound bar and a top level LG one) that people have raved about and I've never experience any of the "sound stage" or "sounds like it's coming from behind me!" that other reviewers always claim.

Front of 910b and 990b are different.
I guess people have mentioned sub is bigger in 990 and soundbar is more clearer. Dimensions are different too. Although they both go as 7.1.2 systems. (Front part only)
910b system can be bot at Amazon/ woot etc for 680+ but overall this system 900c and adding rears make it a better option IMHO for the same price point

I was thinking to buy 2 Apple HomePod to add to my Apple TV 4K 3rd gen but this is tempting. Any comparison or suggestions? TV RU8000 only has ARC.
