FAQs
Does the Samsung HW-B550 support Dolby Atmos?
No, the HW-B550 does not support true Dolby Atmos with height channels. It uses Dolby Audio (Dolby Digital) and DTS Virtual:X technology to create a virtual 3D surround effect that simulates height and expanded soundstage from the 2.1-channel setup.
How do I connect the wireless subwoofer to the soundbar?
The subwoofer pairs automatically out of the box—simply plug both the soundbar and subwoofer into power, and they connect wirelessly within moments (indicated by a solid blue LED on the subwoofer). If needed, press the ID SET button on the back of the subwoofer with a pin, then press the pairing button on the soundbar remote.
Can I add rear speakers later for true surround sound?
Yes, the HW-B550 is compatible with optional Samsung wireless rear speaker kits (SWA-9100S or SWA-9500S), allowing you to upgrade to a 4.1 or 5.1 surround system wirelessly without additional cables for a more immersive experience.
Is the soundbar compatible with non-Samsung TVs?
Yes, it works with any TV via HDMI ARC, optical input, or Bluetooth. However, One Remote Control functionality (using your Samsung TV remote to control volume and power) and some optimized features like Q-Symphony are only available with compatible Samsung TVs.
