#32 Samsung HW-MS550: $199 Discontinued eBay

Pros: A slim 2.0 channel Samsung soundbar with built-in subwoofers, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi multiroom and Alexa support. It has HDMI and optical inputs, 3D video pass through, Dolby Digital and DTS decoding, and can grow into a surround system with Samsung’s optional wireless rear speakers and subwoofer. It is rated from 50Hz to 20kHz.

Cons: No independent measurements yet, so the rating is estimated from a single reviewer’s listening comparison. Sound effects drowned out dialogue and turning the voices up made everything too loud, so the reviewer returned to the Samsung HW-MS650, which is better balanced and reaches 40Hz. Its 50Hz limit gives less warmth and slam. It is a 2.0 channel bar with no dedicated center speaker, so the stereo spread is narrower than the MS650. Discontinued.
