Below average soundbar
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound quality is well below average. We are disappointed in this soundbar. It is also not real easy to use. It sits a little higher than most models, so it blocks the remote receiver on the TV that it sits in front of.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.While but lasted it worked very well. After about a month it started losing sound randomly thought it might be the disc I was watching so i turned off the bar and turned up my TV. TV sound was fine so I knew it was the soundbar. You get what you pay for.

Average at best
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Its decent for the price. It will not make your tv sound great, but definitely louder. I found that sound is very flat. I do have to supplement volume with tv speakers to make sound crisp and have more depth.

We understand your concern about having your LG Soundbar (SK1) model not functioning properly, especially with it just showing blinking lights. We strive to provide high-quality products that exceed our customer's needs and expectations.
There could be a few reasons for this issue, like a power supply problem, a connection hiccup, or maybe a little software glitch. Here are some easy troubleshooting steps you can try: Unplug the unit for about 10 seconds and then plug it back in to reset it.
Also, check all the connections to ensure everything is snugly plugged in, especially the power cord and any external devices.
