Samsung soundbars produce sound effects at their best quality. But if you are looking for a more sophisticated audio experience, then you need to connect the rear speakers to your Samsung soundbar. Connecting rear speakers to the Samsung soundbar is not difficult and doesn’t consume much of your time. Some Samsung soundbars come with dedicated rear speakers. If your soundbar doesn’t have one, you can purchase the rear speakers separately and connect it to your Samsung Soundbar for better audio effects.
This article guides you through the step-by-step procedure to connect the rear speakers to the Samsung soundbar.

3. Now, connect the cables to the power outlet and turn on the wireless receiver module to check if the blue LED blinks on the back of the wireless subwoofer.
