I have them, the soundbar disconnects from TV randomly after 15 to 20 days of non issue, I wouldn't buy this stuff anymore.
Double the price of the Samsung q990 and definitely not double the performance
Got just the 900 soundbar (Refurb) couple of months ago for $400+ tax. Connected to TV via eARC. Very happy with the audio quality, airplay, Alexa capabilities. I wouldn't pay $1600 for this set up, even though it includes sub and surround speakers.

Lot of issues:
constant audio sync issues

No audio once in a while from the soundbar. Have to unplug, replug power supply

Can't change default start up volume. Defaults to 30% which is freaking loud at midnight

Can't reduce volume until something starts playing from the speakers.

I play something via airplay and later turn the soundbar off. It doesn't switch to tv automatically when I play something from tv. Even Bose remote doesn't switch the input. I have to do from iPhone Bose app and it works.

Lot of annoying things like this, but can't complain for the price I paid for refurb speaker. Can't believe these issues aren't fixed even after several software, firmware updates.

There is no linear performance-price function in the world of audiophile

Title should be corrected on the number of channels this has. This is a 5.1.2 soundbar system.

Somebody once said to me If you want no highs or lows try Bose.

Is this true? Never owned anything Bose.

$1600 for a soundbar system with 5.1.2 is not worth it for me. The Samsung q990 for much cheaper with 11.1.4.

Absolutely the truth! Ditched mine and got a Sonos Arc which works flawlessly.

That was a joke from 1990. Times change.

Bose is still maybe overpriced for what it delivers but they are generally good performers

The wireless connection on these is not reliable, I had to wire my sub which defeats the purpose.

Not true at all! We have the same setup and we love it. I wish this deal was there when we bought ours, imo this is an amazing deal!
