Samsung has taken the wrappers off its CES 2026 audio range. While an update to its high-end soundbar, the new HW-Q990H was expected, but the LS50H Wi-Fi speaker was a surprise. Here’s what we know.

Music Studio speakers

The company has debuted two new Wi-Fi speakers, the Music Studio 5 (LS50H) and Music Studio 7 (LS70H), the larger of which offers Dolby Atmos compatibility. Both boast distinctive looks from designer Erwan Bouroullec.

The LS70H is a 3.1.1-channel spatial audio speaker that can operate as a standalone speaker or be paired with compatible Samsung Wi-Fi speakers, soundbars or TVs. It features up to 24-bit/96kHz audio processing plus Bluetooth connectivity. The smaller LS50H features a 4-inch driver and two tweeters.

Dolby Atmos soundbars

Meanwhile, the HW-Q990H is a 11.1.4-channel Dolby Atmos soundbar, which includes surrounds and a dual 8-inch wireless subwoofer. The soundbar introduces several new features, including Sound Elevation, which lifts dialogue toward the center of the screen, and Auto Volume, which allows for consistent volume across channels.

The HW-QS90H model is a single speaker soundbar with 7.1.2-channels. It includes onboard subwoofers and sports a Convertible Fit design with a built-in gyro sensor, which adapts the sound signature based on wall-mounted or AV rack orientation.

Outlook

The soundbars follow the announcement of the company’s new Micro RGB TVs and will be followed by plenty more products at CES. I have reviewed several of Samsung’s high-end soundbars — each one designed at Samsung Audio Lab — and expect the Q990H to sound pretty decent. The Wi-Fi speakers are intriguing, too. I kind of want that Music Studio 5 (LS50H), just to stare at.

Availability of the speakers and soundbars are yet to be announced.
