is this compatible with Samsung HT-H5500W 5.1 3D Home Theater System - 1000 W RMS - Blu-ray Disc Player - Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, Dolb?

The home system shouldn't matter, it's the television, as long as it has the 3D ready input port in the rear of it. You also may need a panasonic 3D dvd player with the checkerboard feature.

Beto, This model would be compatible with the UN55HU9000. Thanks for your interest in Samsung products. --Mr. S

If credible = lossless HD audio tracks, then YES via the BD55's 7.1 analog outs. NO via the digital coax or optical outs - you'll only get the fallback lossy DD and DTS tracks (higher bitrate than DVD, but still NOT HD) to be decoded by your Yamaha AVR. BTW, wait for the DMP-BD80 coming in March '09, as current pricing for the now discontinued BD55 is completely ridiculous...

Thanks, Rushead. Excellent explanation. I'm concluding that if I go with the BD55, I can use its 7.1 audio outputs with the 7.1 audio inputs on my Pioneer 1015. Might be the best way to go, since I'm sensing the Dolby TrueHD and DTS might be significantly better than regular DD and DTS in 5.1.

I am using it with the 55 inch UHD 9000 Samsung TV. It does work. I find the sound quality is better using an optical cable than the blutooth.

Yes, it supports both 5.1 and 7.1 sound output from the optical out. I use it with my Sonos soundbar and it is a perfect match.

Yes - it is compatible. My only advice is to use a lower volume setting when first setting up / balancing your speaker sound levels. This center channel should work perfectly with any 5.1 or 7.1 system.

It should. I think that is what the Dolby and DTS True HD is about. Although, I think that it is uncompressed 24 "bit" audio. Which means its bitstream, which before you could only get through an optical/toslink cable. (I think) this new "True HD" format can now send it along HDMI, which is great for most people. I don't know what it sounds like because I have an older PS3 (not the PS3 slim) that does not have the "TRUE HD" format imbedded. Although I have to tell you that I've had this receiver and have not had any of the indicators of Dolby or DTS light up on the receiver even when I am playing a blue-ray. I found out that the 1019 has a better integrated amp: the PHAT 2, which I've heard makes it sound incredible. Might return and upgrade. Hopes this helps. -Rob L.

You have probably already found your system, but if not, I have a slightly used LG BH6820SW 3D-ready home theater system without the player for $100. If you are still interested, check out Ebay Item# 111611983879

I have 7100 series (2013) and it works AOK. Also operates my Samsung Blue Ray player.

I just purchased the Samsung UN55C8000 3-D TV and was planning to purchase the HTCT500 sound bar. Does the HTCT500 work with Samsung TV? I heard it may have some compatability issue. Since this Samsung is a 3-D, it would make sense if I buy the HTCT350 for 3-D sound. Any idea?

William R Maillet, Yes, the HW-H550 has Smart Volume, which is a feature that regulates and stabilizes the volume level against a drastic volume change. Thanks for your interest in Samsung Home Theater systems. --Mr. S

Yes, but "limited"...see Consumer Reports review (from their archives). I simply use my bluray player's smart features instead; I recently upgraded a few of my players...found (on Craigslist) a NIB Sony 5100 and a Samsung 5900 for $50 and $45 respectively...both are fully up to date and 3D capable.

Sorry can not help you. I have a Samsung Blu-ray Disc Player . If you have the instruction booklet for the LG BD550 Network Blu-ray disc player you should have a customer service number in the booklet you can call them for HELP ,about it.

We regret to inform you this model could not be used with the PT-53WX53. The DMP-BD87 Blu-ray player could be used.
