    • Number of Channels: 2.1 (The number of discrete channels of sound output. This can be a single number or multiple numbers separated by decimal(s). The first number is the primary, horizontally directed audio channels. The number after the first decimal, if applicable, is the number of subwoofer outputs or channels. The number after the second decimal, if applicable, is the number of height or atmospheric channels designed to immerse the listener by producing overhead sound effects.)

There are also various proprietary technologies that imitate this kind of sound via a device's built-in speakers or soundbar.)

Products that support hi-res audio deliver audio signals with a dynamic range and bandwidth far greater than that of a standard CD so you'll be able to enjoy pure music with outstanding sound quality. The device supports high-resolution audio signals, which more closely resemble the quality of music as it was originally recorded, with more texture and detail than can be heard via typical music streaming services or CDs.)

Q: Does the LED display on the sound bar turn off after you adjust your settings or volume? Or is it constantly on?

A: It does not it is always on it does however dim after you make your adjustment

Q: how does this hook up to the television all I have is a HDMI no optical hook up.

A: HDMI is a possible connection you can use from it to the tv, you will need to buy or use a spare hdmi cable though

Q: Does it have a dialog/voice setting since we mainly watch news and Movies? And if it does, does the setting "stick" vs reverting back. (Unlike the Bose Solo 5 which reverts back -a royal pain)

A: Hi there! It does have pre programmed settings you can use, and in those, it also has an equalizer that lets you change the woofer, treble, base, and rear speaker settings (if you have those) so you can make your own voice settings or however you like it. It will save your EQ settings on that specific programmed setting until you change it again :)

Q: I am trying to decide between purchasing the LG SJ5Y-S and SJ4Y-S. Spec wise the SJ5Y is 320W which seems to be due to the subwoofer being rated for 200W instead of 180W for the SJ4Y. Is there any significant difference in the soundbar to consider?

A: I went for the SJ5Y-S because it was more powerful but also because I liked the look of it better and also the digital readout in the front. It also had more positive and less negative reviews than the SJ4Y-S. They seem to have worked out any of those issues. It's a great soundbar for my purposes and feel it was worth the extra money. I'm very happy with it.

Q: I heard there is an issue were it keeps searching for sub woofer ..and needs to be updated on line. Reason I heard is that it keeps searching for the extra speakers that you can also add to it. I do not want to go into all that. is this one updated/fixed?

A: I am answering my own question to help anyone out after speaking with LG..any models dated 7/17 and up have already been updated is what I was told..its near the serial numbers..just got home from buying one myself..good luck

Q: Can you link this to any of the personal assistants? Such as google home, alexa etc..

A: yes you can via bluetooth or 3.5mm jack. i have my SJ5Y-S connected to my echo dot bluetooth

Q: Will this work on a 55" tv?

A: Yes, it will work with 55" TV as long as TV has HDMI/ARC, Optical, or if its a LG it will also work on Bluetooth. If you are not sure, go to the TV's website and get the owners manual and see if your TV has the options listed.

Q: What are the dimensions ???

A: The bar is 37.25" W x 3.25" D x 2.25" H.
