Our Verdict

Samsung HW-Q800A

Polk Audio Signa S4

The Samsung HW-Q800A is better than the Polk Audio Signa S4. They're both 3.1.2 setups, but the Samsung can reproduce a much more extended low-bass. It also has a better soundstage and more sound enhancement features, like a graphic EQ. There's even a Full HDMI In port for video passthrough, unlike the Polk.
