It&rsquo;s starting to ship its Flagship Q series, Lifestyle S series and T series bars this month, with all of them available this spring. The high-end Q range (shown below) boasts audio tricks like Q-Symphony, which melds object tracking with your TV&rsquo;s top speakers to produce a more immersive effect, as well as Acoustic Beam tech that spatially aligns the sound with what&rsquo;s happening on screen. The top two models (the Q70T and Q800T) also include upward-firing speakers for Dolby Atmos and HDMI eARC support for higher-quality uncompressed audio.<\/p>\n<p>The Q series starts at $500 and includes a wireless subwoofer, while springing for the Q800T will set you back $900.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"o-article_block pb-15 pb-5@m- mt-n35 mt-n25@m mt-n15@s\">\n<div class=\"grid@tl+\">\n<div class=\"full-width@tp- grid@tl+__cell col-8-of-12@tl+\">\n<div class=\"article-text c-gray-1 no-review\">\n<p>For some, the most interesting models may be the decidedly more affordable Lifestyle models.

The S60T also throws in Alexa voice control as well as a wide-range tweeter. That model costs $330, although a simpler S40T is available for $180.<\/p>\n<p>The T series replaces the earlier R series and covers the low-to-mid-range lineup. You won&rsquo;t find Atmos, Alexa or a special design, but they do pack wireless subs. The higher-end T550 and T650 models are also HDMI-capable and support DTS Virtual:X spatial surround sound. These start at $200 for the no-frills T450 and scale up to $400 for the T650.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"tags\">\n<div><strong>See Campaign: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/samsung-terrace-outdoor-tv-170045481.html\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/samsung-terrace-outdoor-tv-170045481.html<\/a><br \/><b>Contact Information:<\/b><br \/>Jon Fingas<\/p>\n<p><b>Tags:<\/b><br \/><a href=\"\"><\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/category\/news-category\/wire\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Wire<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/category\/global-regions\/united-states\/\" rel=\"category tag\">United States<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/category\/language\/english\/\" rel=\"category tag\">English<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\" alt=\"image\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" class=\"cwdfimg\" \/><\/div>\n<div>\n<h3>Contact Information:<\/h3>\n<p>Jon Fingas<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>They&rsquo;re as much about looks as audio performance.
