Hi, 

I'm hoping someone can help me. I set up my HW-S800B today, it is synced with my Samsung Q80b 55".  Using the sound bar on it's own without Q-symphony is pathetic.  When using the sound bar with Q-symphony works ok when watching sky tv, however, when watching Netflix/Disney+ or prime with it the sound is very bad.  

So it seems that any output from the apps on the tv doesn't produce great sound even with Q-Symphony, in actual fact the sound from the tv speakers on their own is better.  Am I missing something here, or do I have a faulty piece of equipment?

 

Any help or advice is greatly appreciated.

Have you tried clanging to the setting to pcm under advanced within the sound settings

Hi, thank you for your response.  

I didn't, however when I did, I noticed that e-arc was turned off, so I set that to auto and where the pcm option is I set to passive, this has improved the sound a lot.  I don't know if they are the correct settings but it has definitely improved.

Good might need seeing if there's a setting on the bar and hopefully you will hit the sweet spot.
