Buying decision

Should you buy it?

For 2025 the Q990F keeps 11.1.4 channels but swaps in a compact cube-shaped wireless subwoofer that still digs deep. The bar and two up-firing rear speakers deliver some of the most convincing Atmos effects outside a custom install. Reviewers gave it straight five-star scores; it remains a four-box system that needs space.

Best for

Big-screen owners who want reference-level surround.

Not for

Anyone who wants a single bar with no extra boxes.
