Is samsung hwq80r good?

The Samsung HW-Q80R soundbar has a very good, neutral and accurate sound profile. It'll perform well with all sorts of content such as dialogue, a wide variety of music genres, and movies. You can also get an immersive listening experience since it supports Atmos on its 5.1. 2 setup, but it lacks rear satellites.
