LG - 2.1-Channel 300W Soundbar System with Wireless Subwoofer - Black

I purchased this during black friday. Once I got it plugged in and going everything seemed fine until I started fiddling with some home consoles, namely the PlayStation 4 and the Nintendo Switch. I wasn't quite able to get to the bottom of the issue but I'm hoping that doing an even exchange and bringing home a new one will fix the issue. The issue I seemed to be experiencing was that the soundbar was having problems playing high pitched tones specifically from the menus on both the Switch and the PS4. So, for example, the key tones whilst navigating the menus on both systems would play a distorted tone from what it actually should bne playing. Yet when I would scroll across on the menus to get a bunch of tones all at once it would play them just fine. Meaning if it was a continuous stream of data being sent to it, it would be okay. Something akin to watching TV or listening to a song would work just fine. So I'm guessing that the soundbar was having problems picking up very fast short loud pitches and I'm hoping that it was just this particular unit that i recieved and that it isn't some actual issue with this soundbar. If it is then I'll just get a different kind but I was really hoping this one would fit my needs. If you're looking for a soundbar for your home theater then look no further, the quality was great but it failed to meet my expectations. If you're looking to get every single bit of sound detail out of your piece of hardware then I can't quite say this will meet your particular needs because from my point of view it has problems picking up smaller sounds that in actuality are very loud and obnoxious to the human ear. I guess the hardware has problems processing a fast button tone. Or I was just unlucky and recieved a faulty one.

I did a bit of research before deciding on a soundbar and knew nothing about them prior to my purchase. Our television would have super quiet dialogue and then suddenly sound like it was full blast with any other noises without touching a single button! I read that there were 3 settings on this (voice, cinema, and bass blast) to help remedy the issues my television was having, and to seal the deal for me the unit was on an amazing sale! I could not be more impressed by the sound quality and output that this soundbar and sub provide!!! It sounds like we have surround sound somehow, which is unheard of from a single front speaker/sub combo! Our living room is not exactly small, so you really get a lot of bang for your buck out of this unit! Another thing that really added to the wow factor for me was the fact that an optical sound cord was included in the box! It seems that necessary cords are never free with products that require them anymore, so this was a definite plus!!! Set-up was a breeze and changing between devices (like hooking the soundbar up to my phone during afternoon study sessions and changing the unit output settings back to play television audio at night) is as easy as pushing a button on the remote! LG did a fabulous job with the execution of this product hands down!!!

I never knew what a sound bar was used for, but when I saw them on sale for Black Friday at B.B. I decided to read the reviews and see what others had to say about them. I finally decided to buy two for our two TVs to help improve our listening of all shows and movies. I bought this LG and the other was a Samsung that was $20 more. What is missing on this LG bar is a digital readout screen that the Samsung has, which lets you see what changes you are making with the remote, such as volume level. With the LG bar, I can not tell what mode I’m in or get any indication that the remote is working except when I turn up the volume up enough to hear a change. Despite the sound being Ok, I think having a readout window showing the modes the sound bar is in, is a helpful feature when making adjustments and would recommend looking for that feature when selection a sound bar.

This sound bar has amazing sound quality! I have it hooked up to my 65 LG 4K UHD Tv and the sound is phenomenal. It has a crisp and distinct sound with every show or movie you watch. You feel like you are immersed within the movie and are watching it in a theatre. I love the sleek look of it as well. It is not too bulky so it fits right in front of the tv on and entertainment stand or sits well alone. I would recommend this sound bar and not worry about upgrading to a bigger more expensive lg because they actually have just about the same sound quality. The only difference would be more speakers provided. If you are looking for just a sound bar and small speaker, this is the way to go. It does not disappoint!

After reading the reviews and ratings, I thought it foolish to pass up the great savings at the sale price. It was easy to set up, but I have been having problems with the product. I bought an LG tv prior to buying this LG sound bar and thought it should be a great match. However, often after pausing the tv, the sound did not start until seconds later after the program began. I also noticed an occasional lag, as if the sound track did not match the show, as if I were watching a foreign movie. I had also hoped that I could marry up the remote with the direct tv remote, as I had done with the tv, however that didn’t happen. So now the number of remotes to keep nearby continues to grow. So, I’m somewhat disappointed in the functionality but somewhat satisfied with the quality of sound. I DO like the sound quality. Everything is very clear and the quality of sound is much better than that of the tv alone.

This is my first buying experience for a sound bar, as I never had one. I was skeptical about, whether to buy a brand who are leader in speaker and sound system. But then somehow I ended up buying this one on Thanksgiving by seeing the price and rating. Believe me my bet on this paid up well. There is no matching with this price and quality. Very easy to connect. As I connected and played for the first time with full bass with reasonable sound first my 2 year toddler was surprised and then he started dancing. I got something extra ordinary with just 120$. I would recommend anyone to buy this product. Only improvement area is they could have given a good manual on how to operate the different mode using the remote control.

I bought this as a gift for my husband for Christmas. He was super excited. But every couple of minutes, the sub woofer disconnects, the light goes out, and the sub woofer sound drops out. No matter what we do it won’t stop. After lots of googling, we saw another review where geek squad came out to replace the unit for another customer assuming it was a faulty piece of equipment. But the one they brought did the same thing. The sub sits directly next to the soundbar, so not having it in the right proximity is not the reason. I’m just glad I didn’t pay full price and got this on sale. I think I’d rather trash it as opposed to selling it. I’d hate to anger whoever were to buy it from me.

I bought this for my parents as the speakers on their tv are blown because neither of them can hear well. I installed the sound bar and subwoofer in 5 minutes. The directions are clear and simple. I would give this 4 stars because the extra functions, like auto on and off, are not easily explained in the manual, so you have to download the digital user guide, which while easy enough, would have confused my older parents. So if that were simpler that would be better, but because it’s so easy to set up, use, and because I do love the auto on off function now that I’ve figured it out, it gets 5.
