Q: WHAT IS DRC ON MY SOUNDBAR (lg)
A: DRC stands for Dynamic Range Control. DRC- works only for Dolby Digital and DTS. It compresses dynamic range so there is less range between quiet and loud passages. In theory will make your loud scenes (commercials) less loud while making soft dialog louder.
A: Hello termite. Thank you for your interest in the LG Soundbar with theWireless Subwoofer, Model # LAS551H. Yes, this unit comes with a supplied remote control. Some functions of this unit are controlled by the TV’s remote control when this unit and LG TV’s with SIMPLINK are connected through HDMI connection. Controllable functions by LG TV’s remote control : Power on/off, volume up/down, mute, etc...IFV
Q: Is included optical cable adequate?
A: Hello PburgBob. The supplied Optical Cable (Toslink cable) for the LG Soundbar with the Wireless Subwoofer, Model # LAS551H, may look flimsy, but it is quite adequate for what is needs to do, especially given it's length. It really isn't going to make that much more of a difference for what you're connecting with it but if you feel more comfortable getting something a little more robust, that's fine...^IFV
Q: Optical cable vs HDMI cable connection
A: I would go with Optical since that is pure Audio connectivity and will keep things simple. The HDMI cable really needs to have a specialized connection on the back of your HDMI ARC (Audio Return Channel) which not all TV's have. See the link below for more details on that. In my opinion, if you are just trying to connect the sound bar to the TV for Audio, use the optical. Small cable and easy to hide. http://www.cnet.com/news/what-is-audio-return-channel-arc/
Q: Does this support 120-240v input power?
A: The sticker on the sound bar states 120v / 60hz. It makes no mention of 240v.
Q: what is the HDMI output on the sound bar for
A: Hi troyboy. Think of the HDMI output port on the LG - Soundbar with Wireless Subwoofer, Model # LAS551H more as another Input than just an output. That HDMI port supports the ARC function so if you had a TV or other devices that also support the ARC (Audio Return Channel) function you would have one additional way to have audio pass from one unit to the other, it's a 2 way stream. You can then use the HDMI Input for another device that only has an HDMI Out. Be sure to use a Type A, High Speed HDMI™ cable with Ethernet if you intend to use the ARC function...^IFV
Q: Is there a LCD or some type of display on the bar itself?
A: Your inquiry on the LG - Soundbar with Wireless Subwoofer - Model # LAS551H. The Bar does not have a display on it, but if you look at the third image from the left on the Best Buy site for this unit, using the zoom feature, you will notice on the top right side of the bar are the LEDS that illuminate to indicate the status of the functions they represent...IFV
Q: how many watts is the subwoofer ??
A: Hi Rob, we appreciate your interest in the LG 320W 2.1ch Sound Bar Audio System with Wireless Active Subwoofer and Bluetooth Connectivity, Model # LAS551H. The Front Speakers are rated at 60W x 2 and the Subwoofer is rated at 200W...^IFV
