TestSeek's Expert Reviews Summary
Staff at TestSeek has read all the expert reviews (so you don't have to) for this product and written a summary of what the editors think about the product.
The Samsung HT-X810 is a 2.1 wall-mountable home theatre system with a 5.8 GHz wireless subwoofer. Among its primary features are; 1080p DVD upscaling (slot-in DVD-player included), good connectivity including Bluetooth, USB, HDMI, component and optical video.
The system generally produced excellent audio and video quality in the tests, though it sometimes clattered at extreme volumes. This system is not a surround sound system although it has a virtual surround sound mode, which wasn’t much appreciated in the reviews.
The reviewers have different opinions regarding the included slot-in DVD/CD-player. Some say it works good when upscaling DVD-video to 1080p, others wasn’t very impressed by this function. Otherwise there were no complaints regarding the DVD/CD player.
The system was easy to setup but the editors complained about the remote control having too small buttons and the menu navigation being complicated to navigate. Other operation problems noted was the long time it took for the system to switch between audio sources (up to five seconds).

TestSeek's Conclusion
Although Samsung HT-X810 can’t be labeled cheap at a price tag of $700, most reviewers are very positive. They liked the design, connectivity and the sound produced by the HT-X810 system. On the negative side, the editors weren’t as impressed by the built-in DVD-player and the long time it took to switch between audio sources.
We've tested several home cinema systems recently but there's something about the HT-X810R that got us a lot more excited than usual. The no-nonsense installation and terrific looks are a major factor, but what impressed us the most is its unusual feature...
No HDMI input, ‘Virtual’ surround mode ineffective

Audio output is too bass heavy, not clear, Slightly expensive

Abstract: Samsung HT-X810 är ett två-delars hemmabiosystem där subwoofern är trådlös. Testarna anser att bild- och ljudåtergivning är bra. Detta tillsammans med goda anslutningsmöjligheter gör systemet intress...
Trådløs subwoofer, Ekstremt enkel både å sette opp og bruke, Absolutt alt i en boks.
Subwooferen senker kvalitetsinntrykket, Lyden overbeviser ikke verken på musikk eller film.
HT-X810 og dens noe ivrige subwoofer skaper generelt mye trykk og punch, og selv om stemmene av en eller annen grunn faller litt gjennom på film, så er mellomtonen så absolutt til stede og gjør en god jobb på nesten all musikk. Både Seal og Amy McDona...
