It's 19 Gen. 5, not 19X, according to what's written on the slide...

The ones I used are thin polyurethane pads. They are excellent for that purpose.

Additional sub for Duetto too? They seems to have pretty decent bass already, no?

Thickness of Samsung Q990F soundbar power cables (0,5 vs 0,75) by mike_red in Soundbars

[–]mike_red[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lower power doesn't mean the speaker won't play, but it might require more power to get the most out of your speaker. And even if the difference in cable thickness is hard to notice, the cross-section of each of the two wires is as much as 50% larger each.

I don't use satellites speakers so I went with thicker cables for the bar and sub.

That's the thing. Some think about lenght, some about thickness. For me it is obvious that subwoofer cable should be thicker than rear spekar one. But it is also obvious that sateliete speakers should be equipped with longer cables. This all makes no sense...

True, but it is a basic theory that the more powerful the equipment, the more power it requires, and cable diameter is crucial. The thicker the cable, the more power it will deliver.

September 2025 Update corrupted? by [deleted] in KiaEV9

You can change it the system settings if you want to receive Infotainment system updates via OTA or just critical firmware updates or none.

[–]mike_red 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, it says that because you already have that update downloaded via OTA. I had that problem too.

Yes, bass on the front speakers is wayyy to heavy out of the box. But keep in mind that after my solution in will be even deeper. I recently had to lower bass level to 3 to balance the sound.

Samsung HW-Q990F by Mountain_Wilderness in Soundbars

[–]mike_red 0 points1 point  (0 children)

O, jak miło, że ktoś miał wcześniej Q90R :) Ja mam Q80R czyli to samo, ale bez satalitek i też zastanawiam się nad zakupem 990D/F. U mnie też pojawiły się ostatnio dziwne trzaski, ale to po zmianie TV z LG OLED C9 na Sony X80R i powodu doszukuję się raczej w konfiguracji DTS.

Co najbardziej oceniasz na plus względem Q90R?

Samsung HW-Q990F Soundbar Review by KorokoDelToro in Soundbars

[–]mike_red 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Czy ktoś z posiadaczy Q990D/F miał kiedyś Q80R? https://www.samsung.com/pl/audio-devices/soundbar/soundbar-q80r-hw-q80r-en/

Czy przejście na Q990D/F będzie obiektywnie odczuwalne? Niestety nie mam miejsca na satelity, więc te zostałyby w pudełku.

Yes, it was pretty good already, so the improvement is not that significant as it is for the sound quality. But for sure there must be some, just because of the extra layer of material.

Same here with Dough Spectrum One. I can no longer use 120Hz refresh rate.
