Samsung Electronics unveiled its 2026 audio range, which includes improved Q-Series soundbars and new Music Studio speakers designed to provide richer and clearer audio experiences. This expanded line, which will be shown at CES 2026, focuses on fuller immersion and improved multi-device performance with innovative audio technologies.
Samsung’s 2026 Q-Series soundbars improve cinematic sound in modern homes by adjusting to different room sizes and listening habits. The flagship model, the HW-Q990H, has unique Sound Elevation technology that places dialogue in the centre of the screen, resulting in a more natural aural experience. It also supports Auto Volume, which maintains constant sound levels throughout channels and content, resulting in a smoother and more balanced listening experience.
The 11.1.4-channel system has a 7.0.2 main bar, 4.0.2 rear speakers, and a small active subwoofer that delivers strong bass and an expansive sound field thanks to up-firing channels and AI tuning. The new HW-QS90H model from Samsung’s 2026 series is an all-in-one soundbar with a convertible fit design that allows for flexible mounting and automated channel adjustment via gyro sensor. A 7.1.2-channel system also has 13 drivers and a built-in Quad Bass Woofer, allowing for deep bass without the need for a separate subwoofer.
Samsung is unveiling two new Wi-Fi speakers, the “Music Studio 5” and “Music Studio 7”, to improve their integrated environment. These models enable more sound system combinations, increasing the audiovisual experience and improving the audio environment while complementing the user’s surroundings. Both speakers feature Erwan Bouroullec’s ageless design, which is inspired by universal symbols in music and art and is consistent with Samsung’s aesthetic.
Music Studio 7 (LS70H model) has 3.1.1-channel spatial audio and top-firing speakers for immersive sound. It employs Samsung’s Audio Lab Pattern Control Technology for improved directionality and AI Dynamic Bass Control for deeper bass. The system supports Hi-Resolution Audio up to 24-bit/96kHz, with a frequency range of 35kHz for more detail. It comes in black and white and can be used as a single speaker or coupled with Samsung TVs via Q-Symphony to provide a more immersive audio experience.

The SmartThings app allows users to change settings and regulate playback. The latest Sound Tower models, ST50F and ST40F, improve outdoor listening experiences.
