4Excellent addition to the LG SJ5Y soundbar

BLUF: If you aren't in the market for a full audio system setup (i.e., AV receiver plus speakers for 7.1/5.1, etc.), but want a great, easy, and cost-effective audio upgrade, then pairing these speakers with the SJ4Y or SJ5Y soundbars is the right option for you! They more than get the job done with ease. I'm a happy customer that would purchase again! NOW for the full review: I have a some experience with speaker setups. In my old house, I personally ran wires behind drywall and in the attic to install a 600W 5.1 system. But I moved to another city for a job, and I was looking for a cheaper and easier solution for the time being. I decided on the SJ5Y for several reasons. (1) price, (2) good balance of price vs output (wattage per speaker), (3) ease of adding wireless, true surround speakers, (4) Dolby, DTS, and FLAC decoders, (5) connection options - HDMI in & out, optical, and bluetooth, and (6) it looks good and matches my LG TV. Rear speaker setup is very simple. Plug in audio cables between the rear speakers and rear receiver. Cables are color coded (gray and blue) to help sort out L and R. Plug in the rear receiver, and voila, you are done. The rear receiver paired automatically with the SJ5Y soundbar for me. Distance from the rear receiver to the soundbar is about 20 feet. Once I downloaded and installed the updated firmware via USB, as well as threw out the pack-in optical cable and used a quality one, the system's sound interruptions stopped once and for all. ALSO, yes, please note that there are wires between the rear receiver and the speakers themselves. If you saw "wireless" and assumed there was no wires at all, then sorry to disappoint you. Battery-powered bluetooth speakers can't handle the sound output needed for a system like this. The wireless rear receiver means you don't need to connect the soundbar to the rear speakers directly. The rear receiver can be placed anywhere (within reason - it has a 6ft power cable) and the included speaker wires are at least 10ft. You can buy longer wire at the store if you really need it. Sound quality is exceptional and clear for what it is - 60W per channel. Again, coming from a larger, more expensive 5.1 setup, I can tell the difference between output and range/fullness for the individual speakers. BUT, I was VERY IMPRESSED at what this system can do. This soundbar is easily able to fill the room. I have yet to even come close to maxing out the volume on this baby, and expect I never will. The Adaptive Sound Control (ASC) is my preferred sound mode for TV shows - it enhances voices very well - but I switch it over to BASS while listening to music to help get a more robust range of highs and lows. For my movies and games, I usually change my sound mode to STANDARD. The CINEMA option is OK, but I think it tries to widen the sound field too much, causing some distraction for me. I experimented with my game console outputting uncompressed 7.1 audio over HDMI. The SJ5Y soundbar was able to handle all that data and push it out to the different channels superbly. So I am able to hear that wonderful behind-the-head zooming fly-by or ambient noise when the protagonist is in a crowded room. My movies and games sound wonderful; oh, how I had missed surround sound!

4Budget surround system for closed LG ecosystem
PostedAndyIt's impossible to review these without one of the compatible soundbars: either the SJ5Y or SJ4Y. I bought the SJ5Y + surround kit. BB has a promo for the SJ5Y for $299 and an additional $99 ($30 off of the kit itself when paired with the LG soundbars) for the surround kit. They aren't true wireless. The rear speakers connect via speaker wires to an external amplifier which is wireless besides the power cable. Setup was a breeze -- all I had to do was turn on HDMI ARC on my soundbar and turn on HDMI CEC in the settings on my LG OLED TV. My living room is very small and the default rear levels are low. I'd recommend going into the soundbar settings and upping the "R" levels to 2-4 depending on the size of your living room. They can ONLY be controlled by the sound bar settings, which is counter-intuitive to the whole "one smart remote" system that LG is pushing for. The sound itself is fine. I was comparing these to the Bose and Sonos wireless setups, and I preferred both systems to the LG one. However the Bose and Sonos setup cost upwards to $1500+ for the surround setup, which is not something I was a fan of. The rear speakers sound a bit hollow being very small drivers (look up the dimensions) and can't push that much air. But for movies, the separation of ambient sound and true surround is better than the simulated surround you get from a single source. I'd only recommend these if you're deep into the closed LG ecosystem. It works nicely with my B6 OLED TV and having the smart remote and auto connection to the TV was great. The issue comes with future upgradability. If you're the type to constantly seek the best sound and new components then this isn't for you. But for my needs: 4K Blu-Rays and movies are absolutely stunning on the OLED and surround setup.

4They alright, did what I wanted

I had been looking to give a gift to my dad for his birthday, help provide tv sound in an adjacent room that the TV was struggling to send sound to. We got the assocciated sound bar and set the speakers up on the opposite side of the room from where we wanted the sound. We can now keep the sound from the TV below half of what it was previously, whoever is sitting near the TV isn't getting their ears blown out and the people in the other room can easily hear it. We can turn the speakers off if we want, control the sound bar volume independently, setup was very easy. The sound quality is unfortunately not spectacular, but for an option as inexpensive as this, I wasn't expecting high fidelity sound. Overall, very satisfied with the purchase. I wouldn't say it's good for "surround sound" but it's a spectacular sound range extender/amplifier.

4A great sound system for the money

First of all, this is the 2 channel system NOT the, more expensive, full 5.1 channel surround system. You can add rear speakers (I did) and you get rear surround but its "mock" surround. That being said, its very difficult to hear that it is not full surround. The system does do a very good job at filling in the rear channel with what it believes is needed and it sounds great. The Subwoofer connects by Bluetooth and so do the rear speakers. Connect an LG Smart TV and you can control the soundbar directly from the TV remote making life WAY easier. Sounds is clear and speech is easy to discern. The bass is deep enough without overpowering and it does a decent job of balancing music with other elements. All in all, great value.

2Over powering
PostedMigs610Recently linked these up with my sj4 soundbar and found they where too loud for the sound bar. Even all the way turned down they're still loud. I wish LG would have made it to where you can lower the rear speakers to mute. Not just a preset minimum volume setting. I will probably keep them because I put crossovers on them which made them pretty quiet I just don't like how I had to take an extra step when a simple program setting could have taken care of it. On top of that they where crackling on loud volumes because they try to reproduce too much bass which makes them distort. I'd only recommend because these speakers go with the soundbar. It's easy to connect and control but beware they are very overpowering for the sj4 soundbar.

3Decent sound, when it works.

I got this for free when I bought one of the LG soundbars. To be honest I don't use it much because the closest place I can put these rear speakers is about 15 ft away from the soundbar, which is apparently too far because the sound frequently cuts out. Also, this is only wireless in that you don't need to run any wires between the soundbar and the receiver that comes with these speakers. You will still need to run speaker wire (which is included) from the receiver to each speaker. Having to run speaker wire isn't so bad, but I thought it should be mentioned since the description is a bit misleading. One really good thing I can say is that setting this up was effortless. I just wish it had a better range.

1. The volume level compared to the sound bar fluctuates sometimes (without changing settings). 2. The receiver almost needs a direct line of sight to the sound bar. With a distance of about 15 feet from the soundar, the rear speakers go out if you stand directly in front of the receiver or place a decor item in front of it to hide the box that has to sit on my side table because putting it on the ground under the table it couldn’t get a signal. 3. When you figure out the layout that works best for you (and the system) it creates a decent surround sound for the price. I kept them in part because with the sound bar it was pretty much my only option to create surround sound.

5Nice product
PostedDanielleVerified Purchase
Great sound. Only wish that the speakers were completely wireless. This set comes with 3 parts- the receiver which plugs in and is connected via Bluetooth to the sound bar and then the receiver is connected by wires to the speakers. No big deal it’s just that the cats like the thin wires and I worry they will chew them up- had to tape them to the wall. Otherwise sounds great and feels like I’m in a theatre. Still not used to them because I’ll hear laughing or background noise behind me and It scares me sometimes but then i realize it’s just the surround sound.
