If you're ready to level up your home entertainment, a soundbar is a must. It will add depth and richness to the movies, shows and music that you love, using booming speakers to create an immersive experience.
And for a limited time, the Samsung Q-series 3.1ch. Soundbar with Q-Symphony HW-Q6CC is discounted by $139 at Walmart. It's the full package: A soundbar and a separate subwoofer, to instantly add deep, booming sound to your favorite entertainment.
While we're still working on our review of this model, it's a strong option for one of the best soundbars if you're on a budget. Hurry – it won't be on offer for much longer.
Why this Samsung soundbar is the perfect, budget-friendly investment to level up your home entertainment
When it comes to elevating sound quality, a soundbar and subwoofer is the perfect pairing. It leaves the soundbar with enough capacity to deliver rich trebles and a strong midrange, while the subwoofer can handle the booming bass.
While more expensive soundbars such as the Sonos Arc Ultra, which thoroughly impressed us on test, can host all of this hardware in one device, getting separate speakers can be a cost-effective alternative to instantly improve your sound.
This set is compatible with any soundbar-supported smart TV, but if you own a Samsung TV, you get an additional, unique feature: Q-Symphony. This synchronizes the sound across your TV, the soundbar, and the subwoofer to create an immersive sound system.
It's also compatible with Dolby Atmos, which can send soundwaves above and around your head to create surround-sound, and it has audio enhancement features to highlight voices or mute loud noises, if you haven't soundproofed the room, for example.
You can also connect via Bluetooth, meaning you can play your favorite songs, making it a great choice if you're looking to organize your music room. Setup is as quick as connecting the HDMI cable from the TV to the soundbar and connecting the soundbar to the separate woofer.
