I give it 5 stars for doing a very good job at what it was designed for. My TV is not ARC (audio return channel) compliant so I could not play sound from the TV on this system with only the HDMI cable. It needs an optical audio cable to play things like Netflix via the TV (instead of via unit). However, my TV is new enough that the sound it does play via the optical cable is 5.1, not 2.0 like some older TVs. So in the end I got what I wanted. Pros: ~Good sound ~Easy to set up. Color coded wires makes it simple. ~Nice design. Cons: ~Lack of inputs and outputs. This system is really limited to a set top box and TV. If that's all you need, great. But if you want to add a gaming system or anything else, you are limited to a RCA connection. If your TV is ARC compliant, you do get the optical audio port for other components. ~Rear speakers are not very loud. I went into the setting and turned them to +6db (the max), so that helped. ~Rear speakers are not truly wireless. There are cables that run from the rear hub (which is wireless from the base) to the rear speakers. I don't mind this at all, but don't be mislead by the 'wireless' claim. ~You can't plug your set top box (Uverse, DirecTv, etc...) directly into this unit. The video must go to the TV and then from there to this product. No video pass-through, which in my opinion is a much easier and more flexible. So for the limited needs it fills, it does an excellent job. If you need more inputs or outputs, look further. Review: surprising bang for your buck. - I have always been a firm believe that if you want great home theater then you need to have an A\V receiver. This system however has proven me wrong. I bought this system primarily because you could have semi-wireless re-speakers. The speakers receive power from the additional box in the picture. The box itself is wireless but it is a receiver that transmits the audio signal and power to the rear speakers. The receiver works up to 15 feet away with clear line of sight and the unit sounds superb, even at half power it is more than loud enough to fill a large room with surreal sound quality. I would recommend this product for anyone looking to avoid running speaker wire for rear speakers. Update to my review after about 10 months the unit randomly turns off no rim or reason. not sure why as its not being taxed in any way, just cuts out. the other issue we have had is if you hook up the fiber optic input the audio cuts out but the unit remains on again no rim or reason. its unfortunate that there isn't another manufacture out there fore this technology as Samsung has had problems with quality control. ## Features - 5.1 Channel 1000-Watt 3D Blu-Ray Home Theater System - Dolby Digital, DTS Digital Surround - Input: 1 USB, 1 HDMI Out, 1 Digital Audio (Optical) and disc capacity is 1 - Connectivity: Wi-Fi and Bluetooth ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00UCXJD8A | | Best Sellers Rank | #555,643 in Electronics ( See Top 100 in Electronics ) #175 in Home Theater Systems | | Brand Name | Samsung | | Crossover Description | 1 | | Customer Reviews | 3.7 3.7 out of 5 stars (559) | | Date First Available | April 19, 2015 | | Impedance | 1 Ohms | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Weight | 13.2 pounds | | Item display height | 3 inches | | Item model number | HT-J5500W/ZA | | Output Wattage | 1000 Watts | | Product Dimensions | 16.9 x 2.2 x 8.8 inches | ## Images ![Samsung HT-J5500W 5.1 Channel 1000-Watt 3D Blu-Ray Home Theater System (2015 Model) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51xeeVhml9L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Do the rear speakers connect to the rear module with speaker wire? Or are they actually WIRELESS- Bluetooth for example?** A: The rear speakers connect to the rear module with wires provided by the manufacture. The wires are very small. The rear unit communicates wirelessly with the main unit. **Q: Will this play audios cds? the "compare" list on the samsung website seems to indicate it won't, but the manual seems to say it will. thanks!** A: Yes, Audio CDs are supported on this model. Thanks for your interest in Samsung products.--Mr. S **Q: "does it have an hdmi in port** A: SH,It does not. It does have an RCA audio and digital optical audio input, but not an HDMI input. Thanks for your interest in Samsung products.--Mr. S **Q: I have hdmi cable into arc input, speakers sound great. when i go to amazon prime to watch movie, i only get sound from tv speakers. help!** A: I had a recurring problem with ARC technology, and from researching around online I found I was not alone. Like many people, my ARC plug would work fine for a day or so and then suddenly stop working. I tried different cables, I went through live support several times, went through every possible setting to allow proper arc output, was constantly hard resetting both TV and sound system to no avail. I gave up eventually after fearing I was going to have a coronary or set the entire system on fire and laugh as it burned. I hooked the system up with an optical cable instead. Works great, all the time. Coronary and conflagration averted. Moral of the story: ARC tech is not up to snuff. It might work for some people, but I am not one of those people. Thank you, optical cable, I love you deeply. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fills a limited need very well. *by A***H on September 1, 2015* For the money, this is an excellent system.

I first hooked it up to my Samsung TV I was disappointed - at first. The old system synced very well to my Samsung TV. I didn't have the optical cable when I put the new system together and at this point I also had more HDMI ports before. Once I had the optical cable the units synced right up. I also realized I didn't need as many ports since Netflix, etc. now come directly to the unit. There was one other glitch with getting the wireless speakers working, called customer service and they quickly talked me through it. After all that I have to say I am very happy with the purchase. Sound is good. System works great. Good price for a good system. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/14229997-samsung-ht-j5500w-5-1-channel-1000-watt-3d-blu](https://www.desertcart.us/products/14229997-samsung-ht-j5500w-5-1-channel-1000-watt-3d-blu) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-05-17*
