A:AnswerThe salesman at Best Buy said this model did and the model below it did not. I can tell you from fiddling with it for a while if I leave it on “smart” audio mode, dialogue is very clear. I was using Django unchained dinner table scene as reference. Sound was noticeably more focused on dialogue with it on “smart” mode
A:AnswerI tried to go the same way with MS650 + SWA-9000s + SWA-W700 but the rear channel is not giving real 5.1 surround effect. I tried to test with 5.1 test audio and rear speaker never worked with rear left and right sound test.
A:AnswerYes the MS650 supports the addition of both the new wireless surround kit (SWA-9000S) and/or a dedicated wireless subwoofer in the Bass+ wireless subwoofer (may not be out yet but coming soon). Also just for awareness the MS750 will be coming out shortly and is identical to MS650 but with the addition of two speakers that face upwards from the soundbar toward the ceiling increasing the "height" of the sound which basically Ive understood to mean from your ears perspective the sound will appear to be coming from a larger source. Note that the ms750 however will be approx. $200-250 more. That said, the displays at bestbuy or anywhere really are rarely the best venue to show off soundbar features from the large room to the racks the soundbars are on etc. I'll say in my living room for now the built in sub is enough to connect me to the movies and provides those nice deep tones without distortion but if its room vibrating bass you are looking for, yes you will want a dedicated sub. Hope this helps.
A:AnswerNo and yes …. The sound bar has built in Subwoofers and Bluetooth but does not pair with a subwoofer. But If you use wired aux you can use a splitter and can connect both to the source. But it is the best sounding bar I ever had. I Purchased 2.
A:AnswerIncluded is an optical cable and a power cord. You can use HDMI pass-through, if you have an additional HDMI cable, Bluetooth and WiFi to connect to it as well.
A:Answer1. The correct model number is with the /ZA. It is the same soundbar.
2. The rears have a wireless module that gets it's signal information from the soundbar wirelessly. Each rear speaker then hooks up to the wireless module (which is also the amplifier).
A:AnswerMy recommendation is to trust the reviews. I own the complete system and think that the sound bar delivers excellent sound. Both, the sub and rear speakers are weak.
A:AnswerYou can add wireless speakers and a sub-woofer using the Samsung Multiroom app to create a surround sound experience. I cannot say if the Samsung wireless sub-woofer you currently own is compatible, but I would be surprised if is not.
A:AnswerYes. I am not exactly sure how it’s done because the geek squad came out and did everything for me. But I have a smart TV, a cable box, and the Blu-ray player, and all the sound comes through the sound bar.
A:AnswerHave you tried changing the sound mode with the soundbar remote? You might find one other than standard which is more to your liking. Also, if your TV has an HDMI/ARC connection you might try that instead of the optical. It's possible that your TV might support better audio encodings over the HDMI/ARC than the optical connection. I have only used HDMI/ARC, not optical to connect to my Sony - so that is just a guess on my part.
