Q: Can this be controlled from the same remote we use for the television
A: I have a 2019 Samsung QLED and the remote for the TV works perfectly with the soundbar.
Q: Whats the difference between 550 and 450 except for roughly $100 difference?
A: Hello Dano, Great question! When stepping up from the HW-T450 to the HW-T550, you will gain features such as 2.1Ch, 320W powerful sound, DTS Virtual:X, Surround Sound Expansion (DSP mode), 4 built-in speakers with dedicated amplifiers, Sound optimized to your scene via Smart Sound mode and Bluetooth Multi-connection. ^Cristian
A: Samsungfangrl - Yes, you can connect the HW-T550/ZA via HDMI to your television if it has an HMDI connecton labeled ARC. ARC is short for Audio Return Channel. Your TV remote should control the soundbar volume, since your TV will now see the soundbar as part of the TV. ^Cris
A: Hi Frederico! The HW-T550 is a 2.1 ch soundbar with HDMI compatibility. This soundbar does not feature a 3.5mm audio connection and is not designed to connect to a headphone solution. The soundbar includes one wireless subwoofer. For improved voice clarity I suggest exploring the HW-T650 3.1 ch soundbar with a center channel dedicated to dialog performance. ^Tim
Q: Will this sound bar pair with my Phillip 65" tv remote to control the volume?
A: Hi Kenny! Our soundbars feature the ability to be controlled by the TV remote if connected via HDMI ARC. ^Tim
Q: Can i connect an additional sub woofer
A: Hey Rick , The HW-T550 does not support an addition sub woofer. ^Jason
Q: How do we connect/set up? Have an older Samsung flat screen TV.
A: Hi Linda, just connect an HDMI or Optical cord to the TV and sound bar, then change the audio output in your TV to "sound bar" and you should be good to go. Thanks, ^Scott
Q: Will the Samsung wireless rear speaker kit (model SWA-8500S) work with this soundbar?
A: Hi Katelyn! Yes, the SWA-8500S Rear Speaker Kit is indeed compatible with the HW-T550 Soundbar! ^Gina
