Samsung intros two new soundbars at CES 2024 to match its latest TVs

The HW-S800D is a 1.6-inch-deep soundbar that Samsung has designed for users to fit seamlessly into any space (if it's wide enough).

This soundbar features 10 drivers, including overhead speakers and a center channel for clear vocals. This soundbar works alongside a subwoofer that offers “distortion-free bass in a compact form factor,” Samsung claims.

A new flagship soundbar announced

Next to the ultra-thin soundbar above, Samsung also announced the flagship HW-Q990D model, which boasts an 11.1.4-channel configuration.

Some new features for the HW-Q990D include a Party Mode audio profile and a Private Listening mode that disables the front-firing speakers.

And now, we can see the fruits of Harman's acquisition of Roon last year. The HW-Q990D soundbar supports the high-resolution music streaming service Roon, and HW-Q990D users will be able to beam music to individual speakers or device groups (via Engadget).

The HW-Q990D boasts Dolby Atmos sound and uses AI to optimize the sound for different types of content. Samsung also says this soundbar supports HDMI 2.1 pass-through at up to 4K 120Hz.

Samsung hasn't announced any pricing and release date details, but for what it's worth, the ongoing HW-S800B and HW-Q990C models usually cost $899 and $1,899, respectively, when they're not available at discounts as they are now.

With that in mind, we can assume that the new HW-S800D and HW-Q990D sequels unveiled today at CES 2024 in Las Vegas might cost roughly the same once they go on sale.
