LG SN5 2.1 Wireless Sound Bar with DTS Virtual:X

Product Information

I could really see this being a helpful feature for those that don’t like to tinker with settings and prefer things that just work.

Sidenote, if you’re planning to use a receiver, and that receiver is already connected to your TV through ARC via HDMI, then connect the soundbar to an HDMI input on the receiver. Now for our review we decided to use the Standard mode as we believe it offers the most balanced output. Bass Blast although it was able to enhance the low end it was not good enough overall making the rest of the frequencies slightly overshadowed by it. Fast forward to today, and the ones that exist now are light years ahead both in quality and features.Samsung and LG's more expensive soundbars support Dolby Atmos, meaning they have upward-firing speakers that bounce sound off the ceiling to create a similar effect to having ceiling speakers. This should create a great sense of space, making you feel immersed in the action when watching a movie. However, we’ve found that very few soundbars manage to do this well. You can use it with other branded TVs as well of course, it was just designed to best match that type of TV in terms of visual coherence. All the LG soundbars we've tested have optical, HDMI ARC, and full-HDMI inputs, with the higher-end models often having two full HDMI inputs. When the alien ship was launching its explosive pegs on the human battleship you could feel them travel across the front space with a convincing trajectory. Also during the last scene were the USS Missouri is throwing all its ordnance to the Alien mothership the SN5Y throwed everything at us and really created an impressive atmosphere at the front. Now as far as its performance the SN5Y will certainly offer you a gently boost of sound in all aspects compared to what your TV could output. At the front the soundstage came to life as the SN5Y added certain volume that was missing before and certainly expanded the front sound wall in all directions. Although the soundbar couldn’t offer the degree of expansion beyond its physical limits that we had seen in some other more advanced models it still managed to push the sound slightly further to the sides as well as create additional depth.

It’s clean, punchy, and really helps with making the overall action on screen that much more engaging. Samsung and LG both make soundbars that excel in our testing, and also ones that have been underwhelming. We also often find that paying more for a soundbar is no guarantee of more impressive sound. Ultimately, with LG and Samsung both having such a huge range of models, each brand has their standout soundbars and ones that disappoint, so you need to look carefully at the individual models to know for sure.

Leder du efter det helt rigtige lydsystem? Så er du havnet det helt rigtige sted.It’s not a small soundbar by any means but it’s certainly not gigantic either. I feel it’s right in the middle given its 35.4-inch frame. The channel system suggests the bar has dual full-range drivers with one built-in woofer to balance the upper, mid, and low frequencies for well-balanced and detailed sound.

The subwoofer added depth to the sound, making everything sound realistic and in your surroundings. It also features wireless surround sound ready, allowing you to add extra speakers to the setup for a more immersive experience. If you have a Samsung or LG TV, getting a soundbar from the same brand might result in some benefits (such as being able to use your TV's remote to control the soundbar). However, there's no real need to restrict yourself to one brand - the core soundbar features will work with all TVs and shopping around can get you can excellent-sounding soundbar for less. Keep in mind though, the sub should be kept within 15 feet of the soundbar to maintain the best connection and not cut out when playing. The SN5Y is not deviating much from the core principles LG has set for these low cost units. Ease of use, not very complex settings and setup, good quality for the price asked and an overall friendly user experience as this unit is targeting more of a casual market than a hardcore audience. So let’s see if it’s performance remains the same as last year or if LG managed to make any meaningful upgrades in this one. Keep in mind that since the SN5Y is extremely identical to the SL5Y some parts of our review will be the same and we will making appropriate changes whenever we find some differences or if there is something worthy of mention. Lastly there are a few more features included that add more choice to the user. By including HDMI-CEC, LG Sound Sync and SIMPLINK if you have a TV that supports any of the above you can use your TV remote to issue some basic commands on the soundbar. This can be very practical in case you want to limit the amount of remotes on your room although for more specialized commands you will still need the soundbar remote or the supported app.LG Sound Bar může nyní fungovat jako správce domácnosti.

Made with what LG calls a modern design with clean edges, this a system designed to aesthetically match an LG UHD series 43″ and up television. It doesn’t come with an HDMI cable so that’s something to keep in mind. It does support the option to plug it in that way though. This is the one that I personally use. Highwings 6.6FT/2M 18Gbps High Speed There’s a little bit of a chamfered edge towards the top of the unit too, while the top itself is slightly textured with a small LG emblem placed towards the bottom right.

Boasting a similar spec-sheet (albeit in a 3.1.2 channel set-up) the LG SN8YG is a compact design and simple set-up for slightly smaller rooms and TVs from 49in and upwards. Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, AI Sound Pro and Meridian Audio's Advanced Technologies are all still on the menu, as is built-in Google Assistant. The LG S95QR is the best LG soundbar we've tested. It's a premium 9.1.5 setup with many features, and its versatile performance makes it suitable for listening to everything from music to movies to TV shows. It has a unique design—in addition to a more traditional front-firing center channel, and there's also an up-firing center channel to improve the localization of voices in the mix. As a result, it's really easy to follow along with the conversations in your favorite content, and you get a slightly more life-like feel.

It was pretty easy to use too due to how straightforward it was, allowed for a lot in the way of customizability. Whether you want a soundbar as part of a wider audio setup or you just want to add a bit more energy to films, both LG and Samsung promise to enhance your favourite movies, TV and music with powerful, room-filling sound. While there wasn’t a notated frequency for the subwoofer, I found it that it actually went surprisingly deep, at least to my ears, and definitely had some good impact when it came to the bass. Its simple setup is great as a causal user, and the slim design means it’ll fit in your entertainment center. Musik spiller en helt utrolig stor rolle i vores hverdag.
