If you've been holding out for a major Black Friday score, it’s time to take a serious look at the Samsung Q990D. With an original price tag of $1,997.99, this powerhouse soundbar is now going for just $1,049.00. This hefty discount almost makes it feel like Samsung is paying us to take it off their hands—and as someone who loves a good deal (especially on high-end tech), this is one of the best you’ll find in home audio right now.

The Q990D was recently reviewed by our very own Nick Woodard, and it’s no exaggeration to say he was thoroughly impressed. The Q990D even earned our Highly Recommended Award and the Editor’s Choice award on the site, which are badges of honor we don't give out lightly.

"This isn’t going to break any news at this point, but like its predecessor, the Q990D sounds absolutely phenomenal. It’s not an understatement to say that this soundbar delivers a master class in showcasing the kind of quality that’s possible in a (albeit, very expensive) soundbar. And the most delightful part of the entire experience is that it doesn’t matter what kind of content you throw at the bar. The Q990D remains ready to belt out excellence," - Woodard wrote in his review earlier this year.

What Samsung has done with the Q990D is create a truly next-level audio experience, which I can attest to from personal experience. This is not your ordinary soundbar—it’s an 11.1.4-channel system that brings Dolby Atmos to a new height. With 11 front-facing speakers, a booming subwoofer, and four up-firing channels, you’re surrounded by sound in every sense of the word. And they even throw in a rear speaker kit, giving you everything you need for a full home theater experience straight out of the box.

One of the best features? The Q-Symphony, which is Samsung’s way of making sure your TV’s built-in speakers and the soundbar operate as one. Imagine watching a scene where a spaceship flies overhead. 

With Q-Symphony, every speaker is tuned to give you that overhead, immersive experience that you just can’t get from a basic surround sound setup. This is Samsung working magic with its technology, and it’s clear they put a lot of thought into every audio element.

One of the things that I was pleased with the Q990D is that it offers wireless Dolby Atmos. You heard that right—no more messing with HDMI cables. This soundbar delivers Dolby Atmos wirelessly, so your setup can stay as clean and clutter-free as possible while you enjoy cinema-quality sound at home.

And those rear speakers? They do more than just sit behind you. Samsung designed them to be up-firing and side-firing, using your walls and ceiling to reflect sound all around you. 

When watching movies or listening to music, the depth this brings to your space feels almost surreal. Every whisper, background noise, or environmental sound feels alive, filling the room in a way that goes beyond what traditional speakers can achieve.

Another thing I love about Samsung’s approach here is their focus on seamless integration with smart home systems. The Q990D supports Alexa, Chromecast, and AirPlay 2, so whether you’re controlling it by voice, casting from your phone, or integrating it into your smart home ecosystem, it’s designed to make things easy. Just tap your phone to the soundbar, and your music starts playing—a feature Samsung calls Tap Sound, which is as simple as it is effective.

And let’s not forget SpaceFit Sound Pro. The Q990D analyzes the acoustics in your room and automatically adjusts the sound profile to fit it perfectly. No need for manual fine-tuning, no struggling to find that elusive sweet spot. This feature ensures you’re getting the most accurate, full-bodied sound no matter where you’re seated or what your room’s layout might be.

Samsung has also packed in features that cater to the specific ways people use their soundbars. For gamers, there’s Game Mode Pro, which kicks in automatically when your console is detected. You get 3D sound and bass that puts you right in the middle of the action, turning explosions and environmental sounds into pulse-pounding experiences.

For those who love watching movies or sports, the Q990D’s Active Voice Analyzer (AVA) is an absolute game-changer. This feature makes sure dialogue stands out, even in the middle of intense action scenes or loud backgrounds, so you’re not constantly adjusting the volume. It’s a subtle but much-appreciated touch for any soundbar, especially if you watch a lot of content where clear dialogue is essential.

To sum it up, the Samsung Q990D is a soundbar that brings it all—whether you’re looking for cinema-quality sound, smart home compatibility, or just a major audio upgrade for your space. And let’s be real: how often do you see a top-tier soundbar like this going for almost half off? At just $1,049.00, this Black Friday deal is an offer that’s hard to resist, especially if you want an immersive audio setup that doesn’t require a room full of speakers or complicated wiring.

For the price, there’s simply nothing that competes, and with the Highly Recommended Award and Editor’s Choice nod from our site, it’s clear this soundbar lives up to its reputation. Take advantage of this deal before it’s gone, and let the Samsung Q990D redefine what home audio means for you.
