    The Samsung HT-X810 is a 5.8GHz wireless soundbar, an all-in-one single wall-mountable speaker unit that contains a DVD player housed in a slick cabinet with piano lack finish. It also has a subwoofer, HDMi output and DVD player with upscaling and compatible DivX. In addition the HT-X810 can host Bluetooth audio devices for streaming audio.

    The Samsung HT-X810 certainly looks good with the slick touch controls and the smart slot-loading DVD player delivering impressive results. The sound is also good once you have tamed the bass, which you never really can do to a great extent. The connection options are a real bonus, providing an offering for other media, outside of just your TV or DVD. One minor downside of these inputs is that they can be a little slow to switch, so it is a while before your sound... Read more

    So while the HT-X810 can't match the all-encompassing sound of a true 5.1 speaker system it's still a good option for anyone that wants an uncomplicated, all-in-one entertainment system. Read more

    We got this all-in-one home theater from an Ebay store to compliment our 52" Samsung ToC LCD TV. We were tired of running wires and setting up multiple speakers to get the 5.1 surround sound effect and decided to go with this sleek, all-in-one home theater unit. The set up was simple and no more wires hanging off the wall or multiple speakers placement to deal with. The picture quality from DVDs as well as Divx files is impressive. But how does it sound? The sound coming... Read more

    If you are into Action movies and gaming this system will not dissapoint. With a loud centre piece and a deep bass sub you cant go wrong. At the end of the day if you want to buy a $1,000+ home speaker system by all means go for it, but you would be silly not to take a look at this amazing, simple system. Read more

    After scouring the net for sound bars with built-in DVD, this was one of just a few with this option plus wireless sub. My big screen is Samsung, which I thought would be a bonus. Installation of the soundbar on the wall was easy and straightforward. Getting the soundbar to work was more of a challenge. The instructions were a bit confusing. When reading them, you might think that hooking up the HDMI cable (not provided) would be all that you need. Not so. Be sure that... Read more or see product
