Samsung HW-Q990F
Klipsch Flexus Core 300 with Sub 200 + Surr 200
For most people, the Samsung HW-Q990F is a better pick than the Klipsch Flexus Core 300 with Sub 200 + Surr 200, but it depends on your preferences, as they're both compelling premium soundbars. The Samsung is more user-friendly and not as expensive, with more consistent Atmos performance. Despite its smaller size, it reaches higher output volumes in stereo. That said, the Klipsch delivers more powerful, deeper bass, which you might prefer, or find a bit overwhelming for the treble range. Its stereo soundstage is a little more expansive, too. Then again, it sports one fewer HDMI port, and its latency is worse than the Samsung's (which might only be an issue for gamers and live events). Both models deliver great performance, and it may come down to the details of your personal setup to decide.
