This Samsung 11.1.4-channel soundbar has a $900 price cut

By
2023 Samsung HW-Q990C.
Samsung

One of the best things about new tech deals is scoring last year’s top products for less. Soundbar deals are where a lot of these types of savings live, and we found one that was too good to ignore. Right now, you can purchase the Samsung 11.1.4 HW-Q990C from Woot for only $998. That’s 47% off its full retail price of $1,900. We think the main reason this all-in-one system is priced so low is because the 2024 Samsung HW-Q990D just arrived; so it’ll only be a matter of time before this Woot deal is no more.

Why you should buy the Samsung 11.4.1-channel soundbar

One of the most interesting and unique features of Samsung soundbars, including this HW-Q990C, is somthing called Q-Symphony. If you own a compatible Samsung QLED or QD-OLED TV, you’ll be able to combine your TV speakers with the HW-Q990C drivers. This gives you a major boost in overall sound-staging, a feat further capitalized on by Samsung’s SpaceFit Sound Pro tech. The latter uses advanced acoustic tech to calibrate audio to best-suit the listening environment.

As far as the soundbar itself goes, the Q990C includes 11 front-firing speakers, 4 up-firing drivers, two rear speakers, and a dedicated subwoofer. You may have noticed that’s enough drivers for a full Dolby Atmos system; and indeed, the Q990C supports this prolific surround codec, along with many others.

We’re big fans of soundbars that can be used as full-on HDMI-switching hubs, and the Q990C has got what it takes to get all your gear connected. Beyond its physical inputs, you’ll also be able to take advantage of wireless music streaming via Bluetooth, Apple AirPlay 2, and a hands-free Alexa experience. This means you won’t have to deal with a voice remote mic when trying to issue commands to the Amazon assistant.

Premium soundbars are made by several companies, but if you’re looking for one of the best speaker deals we’ve seen in a long time, don’t pass on this Woot promo. Again, that’s the Samsung 11.1.4 HW-Q990C for only $998, which is almost half off the system’s original price!

Save $350 on Samsung’s best soundbar bundle for Memorial Day
Samsung HW-Q990D Dolby Atmos Soundbar.

If you already have a great TV, even if it's not one of the best TVs on the market, the next best upgrade is to grab yourself a high-quality soundbar. While there are a lot of different brands out there, Samsung makes some of the best soundbars you'll find, like the Samsung Q-series 11.1.4 ch. which, as you can tell, has a ton of channels for you to work with. Luckily, Samsung is knocking $360 off the $2,000 price tag, bringing it down to a more justifiable $1,650 as part of the Memorial Day weekend sales.

Why you should buy the Samsung Q-series 11.1.4 ch. Wireless Soundbar
One great thing about going with a Samsung sound bar is that if you already have a Samsung TV, you can pair both and use the TV's soundbars as part of the whole audio soundscape, so it's like adding an extra couple of channels into the mix. Even if you don't, you get a total of a whopping 22 speakers combined when you include the subwoofer, satellites, and the soundbar, meaning you can create some really powerful surround sound even if you don't have a Samsung TV. Total power sits around 656 watts, so it can get really loud if you really want to pump up the volume.
