Samsung Sound+ SWA-W700 Separate Wireless Sub-Woofer

Product Information

On less explosive films and for day-to-day listening the balance between the 'bar and sub is much better gauged. Despicable Me 2 is close to our hearts here at HCC towers, both for the Dolby Vision 4K BD and because Gru reminds us of our editor Mark. The movie's sound is a festival of fun, too, with subtle effects from start to finish that this Samsung duo eked out and highlighted with precision and clarity, while retaining a naturalistic feel.

The HW-MS750 may not be the best specified of the lineup, but can't be ignored.

Add extra deep-reaching bass power to your Samsung All-in-One sound bar with the SWA-W700 subwoofer. It provides thrillingly powerful bass that puts you at the heart of the action, adding further depth and realism to movies, sports, music and everything you watch. And because it connects wirelessly to the sound bar you can place it anywhere in the room for maximum sub-bass impact.

Product highlights:

I've listened to enough Samsung soundbars this year to detect the California Lab's acoustic signature, which offers depth, clarity and projection into the room akin to listening to a good set of genuine front-end speakers. The HW-MS750 is absolutely no exception. Quite how Samsung's boffins manage to get such clarity and authoritative bass out of the soundbar alone is a mystery to me. Add in the sub and you get a full-scale presentation. The SWA-W700 is compatible with the following Samsung All-In-One Sound Bars: HW-MS750, HW-MS6500, HW-MS6501, HW-MS650 and HW-MS651.

Enter Samsung's SWA-W700. This optional extra is a 15kg thing of subtle beauty. It offers a matt-grey finish, interesting spiral brushed metalwork and a rear-facing 10in driver. It pairs wirelessly via a dongle that plugs into the USB port on the soundbar. While there are no spec details for its onboard amplification, it does boast the same Distortion Cancelling technology. Claimed output is down to 27Hz. The ship's ambience and space is supremely well presented. While those upfiring speakers may not be Atmos-enabled, they do a good job of expanding the sound into your room. Dialogue remains crisp and focused when the action is going off, and the bar's own LF extension keeps male voices true even if you are not using the sub. As the Federation ship collides with Nero's giant mining vessel, the interplay of explosions and silence is breath-taking. use of the content you supply does not violate these Terms of Use and will not cause injury to any person or entity.Playing with the settings, you can't help but be impressed with the Smart mode. Depending on material, its effect can be anything from subtle to sublime but rarely did I not prefer the result. It seems to add further solidity and body to the overall presentation, creating an even richer listening experience. Leave it on. You gotta roll with it that is, or may reasonably be considered to be, defamatory, libelous, hateful, racially or religiously biased or offensive, unlawfully threatening or unlawfully harassing to any person or entity; Style-wise, the HW-MS750 is relatively subtle and innocuous. It's rather square-looking, the whole thing is a sea of grey textures, and the blue display is a frustratingly short four-characters wide. For any info, setting or input name longer than four characters it has to scroll. The display and top corner indicator lamps shut off after a few seconds. Clearly the cosmetic ambition here is to allow the soundbar to disappear into your room. Fitting somewhere in the middle of Samsung's burgeoning range of upper-market soundbars, the HW-MS750 is a mid-sized offering festooned with features and connectivity. As with the brand's flagship HW-K950 and HW-MS650tested previously, R&D has been completed at Samsung's California-based Audio Design Lab, so the promise here is of yet anotherhigh-performance partner for your flatscreen. One of the best pre-credits opening sequence of any movie can be found in Star Trek (2009). You get tension, combat, action, cataclysmic explosions and heart-rending drama condensed into ten minutes of visual and audio delight. Against the stunning 4K HDR picture of the UHD BD, this Samsung pair did not disappoint.

The HW-MS750 claims to go right down to 35Hz in bass extension. That would be low for full-sized speakers, and is downright subsonic from the confined cabinet space and small drivers of a soundbar. For day-to-day TV and music listening, the thinking goes, you simply don't need to add a subwoofer. For movie nights and extra depth, you might want one, though.
