A true addition to your M-series soundbar.
I myself have recently had a 3.1 M-550 soundbar from Samsung. But since a few days also the Swa-8500S.
The Swa-8500S is suitable for the following models: Samsung Sound+ HW-M360, HW-M450, HW-M4500, HW-M550.
The box has inside two loudspeakers, a “Bluetooth” box, power plug and loudspeaker cable which is about 4 meters long and manual.
Connecting the speakers to the box is simple. The speaker cord that is needed for this has a separately colored plug on one side that corresponds to the color on the back of the box. “Can't go wrong, and don't need to screw anything.
The other side of the wire is of course pinned to the back of the speakers, which also have a matching color. Make sure that you don't put the wires for the speakers too far in the back, it won't make contact because the insulation of the speaker cord then rests on the contact points.
Connecting further wirelessly to my soundbar was quite easy and is described in the manual. You don't have to do more than that.
As soon as I turn the soundbar on or off, the Swa-8500s also turns on or off. “Red LED when off, Blue LED when on on the unit”
My TV service is Ziggo and if you press the “i button” via the ziggo remote control and then convert the sound of a channel to Dolby Digital, it sounds like something I should have done much earlier. “You will have to experience it yourself”
Please note the following when purchasing, if you e.g. have an M450 sound bar.
This is namely 2.1 and not 3.1 as the M550 is. This means that with the M450 you will not have real surround “understandable 5.1”. But then the rear speakers will work the same as the front. The M450 has no center channel and so the voices go through the left and right speakers on the sound bar and the rear speakers will copy that. The M450 is 2.1 and can only play Dolby Digital 2.0 The M550 is 3.1, which you can expand to 5.1 Dolby Digital with the Swa-8500s.

combined with my soundbar the samsung n650 great sound and the bass is also fantastic give a 10/10 for the combination I don't think it should be inferior to a Bose soundbar

They do add something to the sound experience. Still nice to have there. The manual does not explain how to adjust the volume. After some googling, that's clear.
