My set-up is :- TV - Samsung UE55JU6400 55" 4K Ultra HD Smart Wi-Fi LED TV Soundbar :- Samsung HW-K550 Rear Spkrs :- Samsung SWA-8000S
The TV & Soundbar work perfectly-via TVARC setting-and the sub woofer connects to S/B via bluetooth.I bought the rear spkrs and they connect via bluetooth as well but I can not find a way to increase the volume of their output and they are virtually silent (hold 1 to your ear and you can hear the sound).I have various apps on my mobile but nothing allows to increase the volume from rear spkrs. Any help would be appreciated.
Another observation. When I switched from an optical connection to Soundconnect, the required sound level for normal listening for the HW-K550 sound bar dropped from about 35 to 25, and the SWA-8000S sound level went up as well. Also, the more important thing is that the Brighthouse/Spectrum TV controller can now adjust the Samsung TV sound level while using a Samsung soundbar.
I must be an idiot.. i cannot manage to change the volume of the rear right speaker. It toggles from 'rs on' to the left speaker level (which i changed to +6) and then it goes back to treble.. so i go thru the cycle again and when i get to the left speaker level i try to use the other buttons on the remote, thinking that one of them will toggle over to 'right speaker'. Nothing. So i have no sound in the right speaker.. tried re syncing, screwed with the wires to make sure they are in the proper amt and touching the metal, etc.
The solution worked for me. I have "full" volume now and I keep it on 4. I still think it has to do with the volume output format from the TV. I have a Samsung 8500 (curved screen). You might try changing those parameters. They may be different on your system. My BFF has a Samsung 6200, and when I use the same parameters her TV the soundbar goes silent.
I had the same problem with the rear speaker set SWA-8000S. Very weak sound. So I added speaker output to line input converter (PAC L.O.C Pro LP3-2) and a pair of active 2x21W speakers (Edifier R1280T), both from Amazon. Now I have as strong rear speaker volume as I need.
