Customers frequently mention the exceptional sound quality, especially when paired with LG TVs, and the immersive experience provided by Dolby Atmos and IMAX Enhanced technologies. The sleek design and easy setup process are also highly praised. However, some customers express concerns about the bass performance, volume control, and price of the product. Additionally, a few users mention the lack of rear speakers and the large size of the subwoofer as drawbacks.
I am reviewing this at the $690 I was able to get it for. The original price of $999 is way too high for the specs on these speakers. The 220W rms sorta says what you need to know. The subwoofer is very light and not punchy and the 3.1.3 audio bar is good but not particularly immersive. So what is this good for? I have an c2 55” in my bedroom and the tv needs to be on a stand. This stand is great! Very stable and functional. The features on the soundbar are good too, and though the LG app is no Sonos it does allow most of the critical controls youd want. Lastly, the sound output is simply enough for a bedroom so it doesn’t have to be a 550 watt system, with the sound setting on cinema it fills the ‘small’ room for the most part. Final thoughts. WOW Orchasta seems to stay on, not sure if it actually sounds better but it does seem to work. Also, I was only able to get the soundbar to update with the app.

I recently added the LG SC9S 3.1.3 Channel Soundbar to my setup, and I’m absolutely thrilled with the upgrade. The Dolby Atmos and DTS:X bring an immersive, surround-sound feel right into my living room, making movies and shows so much more engaging. The soundbar itself is sleek and fits perfectly with my entertainment center, adding a touch of modern elegance. The wireless subwoofer is a game-changer, delivering deep, powerful bass without any messy cables. You can truly feel the impact in action scenes or bass-heavy music tracks, adding a whole new layer of enjoyment. The WOW Orchestra mode is an incredible addition, providing a fuller, richer sound that makes you feel like you’re right in the middle of the action. Setup was a breeze, and it integrated seamlessly with my LG TV. If you’re looking for a sound system that combines high-quality audio, ease of setup, and a minimalist design, the LG SC9S is absolutely worth the investment. Highly recommended!

Installation is very easy and mounts straight to an LG TV. The sound is incredible. I’m enjoying my sound bar to the upmost of its capability.
