Samsung HW-S701D (HW-S701D/XU)

Introduced to the market in 2024 as part of the S Series device lineup, the Samsung HW-S701D soundbar is capable of delivering powerful and intelligently optimized 4.1 sound, making it an excellent addition for TVs with a screen size of about 43 inches. The model features seven built-in speakers and a wireless bass reflex subwoofer, with a total power output of up to 250 watts.

With support for Dolby Atmos and DTS Virtual:X, the device can create a rich surround sound stage, where sounds move not only horizontally but also vertically, enhancing the sense of presence while watching movies or playing games. The technology Q-Symphony is particularly noteworthy, allowing the TV speakers to work synchronously with the soundbar, combining them into a unified sound system.

The intelligent processor analyzes content and optimizes the sound for each channel in real-time, enhancing the perception of both dialogues and background acoustics. Support for AirPlay 2, Chromecast, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth allows the Samsung HW-S701D soundbar to connect to various sources — from smartphones to streaming services like Spotify. HDMI input and output with ARC support ensure a reliable connection with TVs and other devices. Control is handled via remote control, smartphone, or voice commands (Google Assistant). The compact dimensions of the main panel (only 38 mm in height) make the device convenient for shelf placement or wall mounting.
