I wouldn't expect so, unless you can get a good price for your used 950T
Or if you need 4K 120hz passthrough.
Ughh just got 930D last month. Wanted the 120hz passthrough but stock was low everywhere.
Same. I would have gone the 990D at this price but it wasn't on sale then and the 930D was at a great price. Could always try returning under the 100 day guarantee currently being offered.

The 930D should have 120hz pass through if you have the newest firmware installed
I thought i read its a hardware thing not software limitation. Tho i havnt tested it
does not post to victoria?
Yeah strange I just had a look and it won't post to Melbourne inner suburbs
How are these just for music listening? Not intending to watch movies at all
I got one recently. It's good for music. But Atmos/spacial audio for music is mostly a gimmick IMO. These soundbars are designed for movies and 5.1 audio TV. For music alone you would be better served with a set of nice bookshelf speakers with a sub.
Apparently surprisingly good (I'm yet to try it though) - https://www.rtings.com/soundbar/reviews/samsung/hw-q990d
As @Falbium it's ok for music, but definitely made for movies, especially with Atmos. For music, try JBL, Bose, Sonos or Yamaha.
Hmm, i think atmos tracks sound pretty good on these , but theres not really a lot of those. otherwise the subwoofer gives a full sound but the bar alone isnt that great for pure music.
If you looking for small hifi setup, the denon m41 is at Amazon for $695 at the moment. Sells locally at hi fi stores for around a grand. I think these systems have one of the best sound quality to price ratios around.
Item does not post to you. I'm in Sydney Metro.
Same. Melbourne Metro
Ships to me in Perth but I already have one, paid $1154, not worth returning and setting up again for $100 although I was tempted
Weird, they're located in Sydney.
Same issue. Tried various old addresses around Sydney.
Same - Sydney metro. Shame, good price.
This vs Arc + Sub + 2 Era 300s, aside from just the cost difference?
Sonos in my experience. Had the 990A.
The sound stage seemed wider for sonos and more immersive. I sometimes don't know which speaker the sound direction is coming from.
If cost is a factor tho, I'll choose Samsung.
I have Samsung 930d , havent heard sonos , but all reviews suggest full sonos combo with sub and rears is undoubtedly better.
One negative, Sonos doesnt support DTS:X , but that’s usually only an issue if you have blu-ray discs .
Otherwise, If you’ve got the money, go the sonos.
If you have kids who will use it, abuse it, in a common area, and you want some quality movies Q990D.
If you are an audiophile, have a dedicated theatre, money to burn - Sonos going to be the pick. Listened to both in-store, and I'd say there's a small noteable difference in quality (particularly bass), but a sizeable difference in price.
Q990D is great value set up.
Sonos is better for sure.
However top of the line soundbar systems from other manufacturers (like Samsung and Sony) is absolutely not a 1/4 of experience with 1/4 of price. It’s more like you’re paying 3x more to Sonos for less than 1/4 of quality improvements.
The most gutted soundbar on the market, what's the point of having a Q930D model lol.
Sonos better for music
Is it worth the 2x price premium?
Arc + sub mini is sitting around $1400-1500 at the moment with sales
Couldn’t get the either code to work so saved a grand!
Was thinking to get this one instead due to budget https://www.appliancecentral.com.au/hw-q930dxy-samsung-q-ser…
I only need it for tv shows and watching sports and the news. Not too much into movies and gaming. Good enough?
Pretty good. I say go for it. Honestly, better to pocket the extra $300 unless you want to splurge.
$748 on ebay.
Items purchased from a Retailer’s Online Store will follow their respective Online Returns Process.
Thanks for that. I had no idea it existed.
Odd.
Victorian addresses are not eligible for shipping.
Not eligible for shipping via Ebay, but messaged Appliances Online (direct store) and they were able to get it down to special price.
Even bypassed needing Ebay+!
Thanks. I did this, too. Although currently out of stock, so est delivery is January.
Owch - but not bad; you have price protection if it drops over the next few weeks including boxing day!
I got mine coming in the next hour (South-West Sydney); I must have just beat the rush!
I just did that but they wouldn't budge. How did you do it?
I did this also via the chat. Expected Jan delivery.
Try again in an hour hope you get someone else - I was polite, and mentioned I wasn't having luck on their Ebay store with some bug for postal, but their main site was working. Please match to Ebay+, $100 off. They put it to $1054 delivered - may even be get them down to $1049 now - extra $5 for a coffee!
Thanks @Oipjo!
I got it for $1129 at jb with a 5 year warranty. Considering it only comes with 1, I’d say a good deal.
The sound is fantastic! You won’t be disappointed:)
How did you get 5 year warranty out of it for that price?
I went into the store, I got them to price match powerland.
The associate literally said “I was able to drop the price more and add a warranty on it for you”
When I asked can I get the lower price without the warranty he said no, he couldn’t do that but was happy to do the 5 year warranty. In the end I think the peace of mind is even better for that price.
The one time I actually didn’t haggle haha and worked out!
Damn not bad! I had powerland matched. Shipping included so 1220 but not offered warranty!
Price should be $1049
It won't ship to Adelaide now?!?
I have a q950a.. awesome, love it, need to upgrade?
The ebay listing has since dropped in price to $1128, with the SNSM11 bringing it further down to $1028. AppliancesOnline chat matched and I was able to buy at that price, even though the ebay listing is now out of stock (and couldn't get it when in stock anyway due to above-mentioned delivery restrictions).
Anyone else been informed that your order is being delivered halfway through Jan? Extremely disappointed at this stage especially given ETA was mid Dec

Worth the upgrade over a Samsung Q950T? Very tempted.
