Does not work using multiple sound share devices you must pick only one at a time. (Just tried it and would not allow me to use both the sound bar and bluetooth speaker)

An interesting question. I know that under typical Bluetooth you can pair to multiple devices but you can only connect to one of a particular protocol at a time I know Soundshare is a type of Bluetooth. I am looking forward to hearing what you find out when you receive your DA-F60s.Jim

Don't know, and it was annoying when I first bought the soundbar. I've never seen any other Bluetooth receiver with a sound-synch problem, and there is a special function on the remote to correct it. Fortunately, it only occurred when I first bought the speaker, and it's never been a problem since and I've had it for the last three years. Strange.

Good question Dwight, I was thinking the same thing. Evidently this model is designed for the soundbar to come apart into two separate sections to be used as satellite speakers on either side of your television. The image with the multiple speakers is demonstrating what the system looks like with the soundbar being used as two separate satellite speakers. Kind of a neat feature I think.

I bought the DA-E750, and it has worked very well, but I use it connected to my wi-fi network, not via bluetooth. I have noticed two issues: a) I programmed a new Speaker name, but, within a matter of one month, it reverted to the previous generic name, and b) its dock connector uses the old iPhone connector, and Samsung has not refreshed it with a new dock connector. The dock connector is useful to connect it to the wifi network for the first time, or when you change the network password. Bottom line, I suggest you to use this speaker with wifi, it will work very well.

I just bought these headphones and have successfully paired with my Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro, and my Samsung S5. I noticed that the phones were either pairing with one or the other device. In order to have the headphoens paired (connected - not just a stored pairing) with these two devices I had to press, and hold down the power on (typical connecting steps) and have my laptop start pairing with them and as the process was happening, I paired with my phone at the same time. Both connections were accepted and both work simultaneously. You simply have to connect the headphones at the same time with the devices.

definitely get two, then you don't have to drive one as hard to fill the room with sound. I use two for room of 300 to 400, more than enough to fill the room but having two, it's just more effortless sound and I only push them 50%. Also... if have two, if one happens to fail, you have backup. Rule of live performance equip, always have backup.

Soundshare is sort of like a wireless "anynet" with more features. Headphones are not compatable yet. Samsung is painfully aware of this. Google soundshare an headphones and there are a few good answers on how to get headphones to work with extra cables and bluetooth devices. Samsung guys are perplexed on who would want to use headphones with such an awesome sound bar. These are obviously people that will never be married with children. :)

This is a good small soundbar, especially for the money, but if I understand your question correctly it will NOT sync directly with your TV's volume control, but the volume will become quieter or louder when changed on your TV. For example, if you turn the volume on your TV up it will not turn the speaker's internal volume up, however the sound coming through the speaker will become louder. The speaker has its own independent volume control, that you adjust with the black knob you can see on the right-hand side in the picture (and unfortunately the speaker does not come with its own remote). So basically, once the speaker is plugged into your TV you can raise the volume either by raising your TV's volume or the speaker's volume, but one will not control the other. Hope that helps! :-)

Dear Susan,It really comes down to the size of the room. This model is sold in pairs, and you need a minimum of one pair in each room. Some larger rooms (kitchen/eating area) may have use for 2 pairs. Let me know if I can be of additional assistance.Regards,Eric CohenWorld Wide Stereo

It should have no issue, when I loaded mine it told me I could link up to devices. Just be sure to set up your activities correctly. If you want to add another few devices, I would suggest bumping up to the Harmony 650, it can link up to 8 devices.

I am unfamiliar with the particular product you are enquiring about, however: Your TV model has Digital Optical TOSLINK output. Providing your Sound Bar has Digital Optical TOSLINK input I would recommend instead: http://www.amazon.com/ViewHD-TOSLINK-Digital-Optical-Switcher/dp/B00G188Z7A/ref=sr_1_9?s=audio-video-accessories&ie=UTF8&qid=1407943737&sr=1-9 (copy this link to your browser) The product is available from Amazon $31.95. You would also need two TOSLINK cables (Optical Digital Audio) - one from your TV to one of the input ports on the ViewHD connector and one from output port of the connector to the Sound Bar. Different lengths are available from Amazon. I have used this connector to link my HDTV, BlueRay player and Cable Box to my Sound Bar. One advantage is that when playing cable music channels and wanting sound only, I can switch sound signals to go direct from cable box to sound bar and leave TV off. This is a very useful connector.

I believe the Soundshare function is only a wireless link that is possible with a Samsung LED with the SoundShare feature. Otherwise, there are several different ways to connect the video source to this Soundbar. I use a Toslink (fiber optic) cable to connect my soundbar to my desktop Alienware computer, and I use the SoundShare feature to link my Soundbar to my Samsung LED. SoundShare is in my opinion, the best way (no wire clutter), and the sound is great, although the subwoofer bass can overwhelm the dialogue while listening to a movie with this soundbar, if at low volume level, which i often have to use late at night.

I bought a Yamaha sound bar that only connects to my TV. On the back of it is the place to connect the TV to the soundbar. The TV said Digital sound and the Yamaha only has optical sound I had to get the extra cord to make the connection work properly. Apparently this is very common with many electronic devices. The cables are much more expensive at local retailers.

Joe there are factors that come into play with a 5 Channel system. First normal TV/Satellite/Cable broadcasts in stereo so only 2 channels will provide sound. Some DVD's may also be the same. The Satellite speakers and the center channel will not provide any sound. I am not sure if the HT-F6500W has a setting in the setup that allows you to play stereo through the entire system, splitting the signal through the 5 speakers. You might want to check with Samsung. There is a setting that allows the system to self test and play a tone through all speakers to make sure they're all working. Hope this helps.

dboland, This model does not have an audio out port, so without an audio out, there isn't a way to connect to an audio bar. Thanks for your interest in Samsung products. --Mr. S

Humm, I know this unit's dock will not run two head sets at once. Are you thinking two docks and two head sets? Why? Seems to me that may work; you will need to be sure the signals are different to prevent interference. You may want to look into the Sennheiser line of products; I know they offer units which will communicate with up to 4 head sets at the same time and you will only need a single dock. Might be a cheaper way to go in the long run and less hardware mess. Sennheiser products are quite superior in my opinion anyway; you need to consider longevity, quality of the product and how happy you will be when you use them. Saving a little bit of money up front may cost you years of disappointment! Humm, I know this unit's dock will not run two head sets at once. Are you thinking two docks and two head sets? Why?

Dear Linda, as far as I know this cannot be connected as part of a surround sound set up, you or someone else may have. From what I've read you cannot connect this model to a sub woofer.The connection is done through the tv . If you should have a home surround sound and your two front speakers and the center are no longer working . You would be much better off with finding 2 front speakers and a center again. I don't think this bar can substitute for your needs. I am not by any means a tech guru. I do know some stuff by educating myself with the comment of others on consumer sites.
