  • Minimal music

  • It's a bit too tall for some TVs
  • No Atmos support
  • Sub-bass response
  • No Bluetooth aptX support
  • The display doesn't show you much
  • Not Atmos
  • Lacks the gut punch of a separate sub
  • Skimps on the surround sound decoding
  • Occasionally icy in upper midrange
  • Looks expensive when compared to competition
  • Only one HDMI
  • No DTS 5.1 support
  • Slightly aggressive at top of volume range

  • A stunning performance from a single-enclosure soundbar that sounds superb with all types of content. Multiroom-ready and HDMI-equipped, it justifies its price tag. Sub-bass fiends might want the optional sub, though...

  • The $799 Samsung MS650 is a soundbar at the end of the day, and by pure amplifier power and speaker size and enclosure size it's not going to stand up to the power of a proper home theatre system — that is, a system that has full-size floorstanding or boo...
