Samsung HW-Q90R 7.1.4 vs Klipsch BAR 48 5.1

[ahmad_SG]

Hi there, does any one have experience with these sound bars?
Samsung HW-Q90R 7.1.4 vs Klipsch BAR 48 5.1

I’m looking for a sound bar with wireless speakers and sub for living room TV for watching movies, TV and listening to music. My place is open concept, the idea is that this system will be my one source for anything audio. I have a 65” Samsung TV.

Open to any other suggestions for a home theater system that will delight the ears, enhance the tv experience and meet the test of time.

This response is way late i know, but what did you decide on? I ask because i saw you reference a klipsch soundbar. I myself am very interested in the klipsch bar 54 expected at the end of this year.

When it's released, I'd like to see a showdown between those two.

I wanna give the edge to kplisch just because its kplisch.

The bar 48 is a 5.1 configuration.
The bar 54 is either 7 or 9.1 n potentially .2 if it comes with 2 subs.

Looking forward to that! However, I did read an article that said the bar 54 is a 5.1.4-channel bar.

Yea a 9.1 configuration then.

A .2 would be great if it’s an option. Here’s the article I saw:

It looks like an 11.1 configuration.

5/7.1.4 please. Doing the math just muddies the water for the uninitiated.

Like me. I've never had Atmos speakers.

Simple arithmatic. Lol

Indeed. But is a flam a diddle just a paradiddle?
If someone just says 9.1 do they mean 7.1.2? Or 5.1.4? Not quite that simple. Lol

Well since were splitting hairs, I suppose that technically speaking none of those numbers apply. A soundbar is a 2 dimensional speakerbox. In reality, there are no dedicated channels to comprise a 5, 7, 9 or 11 configuration, except however in the case of sounbars that offer small rear speakers.

Doesn’t the 54 have dedicated drivers?

At the most, it has to rears.
