QuestionNotice that the model have change from Hw-q90r/za to Hw-q90z. Is their any difference? Also why is it a specialty item? Thank you for any info.
Asked 6 years ago by Scionjjuanta.
- Answer I called BestBuy support regarding this and was informed that this model (hw-q90ZA) is made solely by Samsung while the HW-Q90R/ZA has been "tuned" by Harman Kardon and has some "slightly different [read: upgraded] components".

QuestionWe just purchased this system. The surround sound speakers are barely audible during TV viewing unless it’s a movie that is compatible. We’ve tried boosting the rear surround sound speakers as much as we can for TV viewing but to no avail.
Asked 5 years ago by Stuart.
- Answer Stuart, I had the same issue with the Q-90. With the rear speaker volume set at +6 (Max) very little sound even when watching Dolby Atmos source. Also soundbar right up-firing speaker became distorted. Returned soundbar to BestBuy

QuestionIf I have an old TV (~2008 Panasonic) with HDMI (but obviously not HMDI ARC), and do the following setup: ROKU Ultra --> Soundbar --> TV, will this setup work? So basically, just video going from soundbar to TV. Dolby Atmos still possible (from ROKU)?
Asked 5 years ago by fade6.
- Answer Yes it will work. This is the same setup I use with my UHD player so that better sound can be played even if the TV might not output Dolby Atmos.

QuestionIs it common that I have to manually pair the sound bar with the subwoofer and the 2 external speakers every time I turn it on?
Asked 4 years ago by Pielover.
- Answer Had a similar issue as well so what u need to do is update the firmware on the soundbar and update the firmware on the rear speakers/sub and the issue is solved and the new updates gives u eArc as well and it’s displayed on the soundbar too. Visit the Samsung site to learn how to do it if u don’t. I simply downloaded SmartThings app on my iPhone and updated the soundbar without any issues and after the update I pressed/held the down button on the circle on the remote for like 5 seconds and u can see the update happening for the rear/sub speakers on the soundbar it will say update and start counting then it will power off and restart and you are good to go! I hope this helps you!
