Samsung HW-Q990C Soundbar $1298 + $89 Delivery @ Heathcotes

10

Surprisingly good price for this soundbar. I have last years version (990b) and I dont think it has been this low even with EPP discounts.

Delivery is $89 nationwide

Enjoy

Thanks to @ace310, you can save on delivery costs if you price match with Noel Leeming and C&C at your local store

@8:20am: Looks like they've fixed the pricing, back up to $1,798
~@8:35am: dropped again to $1298
@8:43: nvm, looks like their systems just took a while to propagate the changes. its back to 1798 now. im going to leave it expired

        I'm pretty happy with it.

        My old system was really really good
        Jade 7 fronts jade 5 rears jade 2c centre, svs sb13+ subwoofer and a pioneer sclx87 receiver. But it took up to much room and we had kids and a smaller lounge so it had to go. The old front speakers alone cost about 4x as much retail on the soundbar RRP.

        However I can say the dialogue on this is really clear I was using a cheaper stand in system and the dialogue was always difficult to make it but the q990c is close to perfect (I am using the dialogue enhance mode).

        I haven't tried the rear speakers yet BC I want to buy the md5402 speaker stands but I feel they are a bit expensive on Amazon ($230nzd delivered) and I'm trying to decide between those or cheap stands from pbtech for $50.

        I would recommend the soundbar.

        The only negatives for the soundbar:
        - doesn't have headphones out port
        - the display is difficult to read when you change modes etc
        - there is no child lock function for the buttons on the soundbar.
        - the power cords for the rear speakers are too short.
        - you can't individually control L/R channel levels
        - it doesn't support an eq/delay calibration function with an attached microphone. (It has soundfit mode which uses a microphone on the actual sound bar which is silly BC the listener is not sitting at the soundbar location).

        • Wow, I'm impressed. Those svs subs are pretty good. That your only niggles relate to config flexibility and output options speaks volumes to the sound quality of the q990c.

          I think one of these might be on the table for me in the near future. Thank you for the concise and helpful mini review!

        • That's very helpful.

  • Has the price gone up to $1800 now?

    • yep looks like it, i've expired the listing now

      • Showing 1298 for me

        • odd, no idea what they're doing but it was def 1798 before. ill monitor their page and unexpire the post

  • Back to 1798..haha

  • Last year Amazon Au was selling it for 1k pity never see that price here

  • Probably a pricing error. Did anyone grab one?

    • Bugger morning tasks.
