Losing sound

Sound bar looks great with my 65 inch curve tv. The only problem I have is the bar keeps losing signal to the tv and the two radiant 360 speakers via wifi, I have found out the bar and tv runs off 2.4gh I’m going try to hook them up on 5gh only.. wish me luck😉. Update” I hooked the tv to a 5ghz bandwidth and it works great no issues. The sound is still low from the sound bar in multi channel or it would be 5 stars..

Great Product

I have never had a sound bar before. Now I know what I was missing. The speakers on these new thin TVs are horrible. Adding a soundbar really improved my viewing experience.

fantastic, loud clear sound

Great sounding soundbar, cannot control the sub-woofer independently buy it connects up right away. Very clear voices and a lot of volume.

The sounds is OK at the best. Sometimes I lose signal when listening to TV …

The sounds is OK at the best. Sometimes I lose signal when listening to TV sound. The base is surprisingly pretty good. I had plans to get a full system with wireless rear speakers but was so NOT impressed I decided to return. The unit is severely overpriced.

Works great!

I bought this soundbar to go with my curved 65” Samsung tv. It fits perfectly on the tv base and has good sound quality. Connected easily with optical audio cable. I did expected it to be a little louder but it is plenty loud.

Sounds fantastic and was super easy to setup

Sounds fantastic and was super easy to setup. The best quality sound comes from the Optical in. The second best is utilizing the hard-wired ethernet connection.The WiFi connection from the TV to the bar is somewhat flakey at time and requires power cycle of the TV and/or changing the inputs many times. The WiFi connection to the subwoofer has been solid the whole time, never going out unless the bar/woofer lose power and restart almost at the same exact moment.Overall a well engineered system, good quality sound, and aesthetically pleasing when matched with the curved samsung tv.

The sound is one of the best, very easy to pair to Samsung tv

I didn’t expect that much from it. The sound is one of the best, very easy to pair to Samsung tv. It is like I am at the movies. I love it.

When it works, it’s great.

When it works, it’s great; far better than the standard TV sound. I have mine paired with a UHD Samsung Smart TV from 2016, and the TV recognizes the soundbar model by default.

Sound in my ears

Love the sound put out from this system. Bar is a lot larger longer than I was expecting but I just rearranged area and installed.

Great stuff.

The sound from the J8500R is wonderful and I also like the sound of the R7 …

I received 2 Samsung R7 speakers as a gift and I thought purchasing the J8500R which is wifi compatible would allow me to connect them as a left/right/center channel (as a normal…
