Samsung HW-Q990H vs Bose Home Theater Set

While the Samsung HW-Q990H lacks the modularity of the Bose Home Theater Setup, it's a better choice for those that want to make a single purchase to improve their home soundbar setup. The Samsung performs better across all our sound tests, with more versatile sound customization options, while boasting premium features like 4k @ 120 Hz passthrough via its HDMI In port. It also supports DTS formats, unlike the Bose, giving it better compatibility with Blu-Rays and certain streaming platforms. The main argument for picking up the Bose is if you already own the soundbar or one of the satellite speakers. However, even then, the Samsung's lower retail price makes it a compelling option.
