    Amazing sound

    Just purchased this system to replace my old LG SNY6 soundbar. This is easily 10 times better!! True surround sound. More power and more bass! Easy set up and paired to my older LG 70” TV. Dolby Atmos alone is worth the price!! Hearing the music mode from my iTunes is like a concert hall. Definitely a great deal!

    Big Theater Energy in One Box

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The LG S90TR home theater system delivers an impressive blend of power, immersion, and convenience, making it a strong choice for anyone wanting cinematic sound without the complexity of a full receiver setup. Its 7.1.3-channel design with Dolby Atmos and DTS:X creates a spacious, room-filling audio experience, supported by a deep, punchy subwoofer and wireless rear speakers that enhance surround realism. Dialogue remains clear, bass hits with authority, and the system gets loud with minimal distortion, while features like AI room calibration, WOW Orchestra, and smart streaming integration make everyday use simple and polished. However, the vertical “overhead” effects aren’t always as convincing as higher-end systems with dedicated up-firing satellites, and the lack of HDMI 2.1 passthrough may disappoint gamers who want full 4K/120 Hz support. Still, for most homes, the S90TR offers a powerful, immersive, and easy-to-set-up home theater upgrade that dramatically enhances movies, games, and music with rich, detailed sound.

    This is your typical entry-level surround sound system that has good immersive audio, no noticeable latency at all, rich bass coming from the sub, and a clean setup due to the wireless satellite speakers. It pairs nicely with my LG C2 (which already had a great sound), utilizing the WOW Orchestra to provide the added layer of audio. It also integrates with the LG ThinQ app that allows near-full control of the system. Volume, Mute, independent DB control of the front and satellite speakers (more on that later), surround sound modes, equalizer settings etc. The only thing missing is the BALANCE. I happen to hear a little more in my right ear than my left, and didn't really notice it until I got this system. It would be perfect if we could adjust the balance. Overall, I'm happy with my purchase. Perfect for my smallish 20Wx12D ft living room

    I previously owned the Nakamichi Shockwafe which cost over $700 when I bought it 8 years ago. This LG surround sound system is WAY better at a lower price. I synced it with the LG QLed tv. The sound is absolutely amazing. The sub puts out just enough bass so it's not overpowering and the rear speakers are loud. Perfect combination. You can't go wrong.

    LG S70TR Sound Bar System is OK

    |
    Tech Insider Network Member
    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    LG has released their new 5.1.1 soundbar system S70TR in 2024. The box includes the soundbar, subwoofer, 2 rear speakers, remote control w/2 AA batteries, 3 AC power wires, brackets, spacers, HDMI cable, speaker wire, and paperwork. The soundbar system comes with a manufacturer's 1-year warranty. Disclaimer: I used this soundbar system in my basement which is around 15'x20'. The room is built for a good movie experience. PROS: ----------- * This system is packed nicely in the box and has a nice appearance. It feels solidly-built, not cheap, but being black, collects dust particles quite well which are seen in some of my pictures. * Easy to connect. After powering on the main soundbar, once ON, the subwoofer and rear speaker lights go from blinking to solid green without any pairing process. When the soundbar is powered off, the sub/rears automatically go into standby mode (solid red light on the units). * Remote is easy to understand and has good responsiveness. * Rear speakers are REVERSIBLE. Since 1 rear speaker must be powered on, regardless of what side your power source is on, the LEFT and RIGHT speakers can be REVERSED in the app. So if your plug is on the right side of your setup, you can put the LEFT speaker on the right side with right speaker on the left side, then reverse the sound output in the app. Since only 1 speaker can be powered on, this was a good workaround and a great feature to have. * Decent bass & rear sound. The subwoofer puts out a decent amount of bass, and the rear speakers provide a good Dolby surround sound experience. * The app interface is much easier to use than using the remote control by itself and having to decipher the LED dots on the front of the soundbar. More options are available there to manage. There are similar options on the TV interface, but the app leads the pack here. * The sound functions (WOW) worked well for the most part, and it does have an option to put into "auto" mode so you don't have to choose. The soundbar will automatically choose what would sound the best based on what you're watching. * Because of the mids/highs, you can definitely keep up with the dialogue of what you're watching without a ton of background noise getting in the way. CONS: ----------- * The sound was acceptable after listening to it for a long time; however, if I started listening to this system after I had just listened to another system, it pales in comparison, even for lesser and other branded systems. There is a ton of treble output on this system even when I have the EQ treble turned down and the bass up. There just isn't a good happy medium that doesn't disappoint or just sound "weird" on the sound spectrum. I expected better overall sound. Having said that, once I listened to it for a while (10 minutes+), my ears got used to it, and it wasn't as bad. Let's just say, I was immersed in sound, but not as much as I would want to be. * Having nothing but colored & blinking lights on the front of a soundbar (to me) is always a "miss". There should always be and LED display on the front that shows what you're doing when you can't use the TV or app interface. It's not difficult to include an LED display with a few letters. Even at this price point, it's a miss. * This could be a CON or a PRO depending on your situation, but I believe more commonly, it would be a CON if you don't know "what" you're buying. When it is advertised as "wireless rear speakers", it's wireless; however, it's WIRED between the 2 rear speakers, and that doesn't always work out logistically in some cases. If you're going to make one speaker wireless, simply make the other one wireless. In this system setup, the LEFT rear speaker is plugged in for power, and speaker wire is run between the 2 speakers. So the right speaker does not have a power wire - just speaker wire. This means that you are limited putting the rear speakers the distance of your speaker wire and you may also have to hide the speaker wire depending on your situation. OTHER OBSERVATIONS: ----------- * AI Sound Pro. LG claims this function will adjust your EQ in real-time based on what you're watching, but I personally did not feel anything changed from the different things I watched and listened to. * Out of the box, the unit took a firmware update which took a few minutes with no hiccups. This was done via the LG soundbar app. * The only connections are HDMI IN, eARC HDMI, and optical. There is a standard 5V/0.5amp USB connection as well. CONCLUSION: ===================== This system is not for the audiophile type. At this price point, I would expect more soundwise. The treble and dialogue really overtake the overall sound experience, and I want to have quite a bit more balance. Even after making adjustments in the app, I just wasn't able to make that happen in a way that would make me really enjoy this system to the fullest. The "wireless/wired" rear speakers was another questionable decision made - having it set up this way is really dependent of your setup at home. This might work well or it might not. I personally like to have little to no wires showing, so it may or may not be a problem for you. In the end, you have to be happy with your purchase and the features you actually paid for. In my case, this system left me wanting more and didn't have as much "immerseness" as one would like at this price point. For many, this system will be fine. Sound, after all, is unique to everyone and what they find acceptable. I already have 1 other LG soundbar from a past purchase, and it cost less and I got a better sound experience from it.

    I had an older TV and just upgraded to the new new 65 inch LG C3 OLED TV. The picture on that TV is amazing! I had surround-sound with my older TV, but it was a pain in the neck to set up. I thought I’d try the LG soundbar because the ease of set up, but I really wasn’t expecting too much. What a pleasant surprise! The Dolby Atmos sound is top notch.The new soundbar comes with a subwoofer and has front speakers that go up and out, and the wireless rear speakers I have placed in the back of my room facing the TV. With the LG soundbar app, you can adjust the volume on each speaker. The WOW orchestra is a feature which combines the TV speakers simultaneously with the soundbar. It creates this high quality surround sound . It is just like going to a brand new theater. The setup is so easy. My LG TV recognized my soundbar and instantly worked. Just plug in that bad boy, grab a bowl of popcorn and prepare yourself for an immersive and powerful experience.

    Incredible Sound and Easy Setup! This LG S70TR blew me away! Setup was quick, the surround sound is powerful, and the bass hits perfectly. Dolby Atmos really fills the room — movies and music both sound amazing. Totally worth it for a true home-theater upgrade.

    I purchased because i got a new TV that has great picture but horrible sound. A soundbar was a must. I went back and for with this one (on sale) and a JBL. I ultimately went with these due to having full surround sound, rear speakers. So far, I am not regretting my purchase. I will say, you do have to play with the sound setting in the APP to get the best sound for your application. When I watch TV I keep the back speakers unplugged unless.I'm wanting the full Cinema experience on a movie. The unit also flawlessly connects to my phone media with no issues, I would have to change setting in APP to Music and turn rear speakers if I want a loud experience. I sometimes will disconnect from my car bluetooth, open APP, turn on system and play my podcast directly from my car to my home as I'm returning home. One flaw I noticed but I don't blame LG, there have been some shows where the bass will have a pop or surprisingly loud boom. I have confirmed this was always the show or movie, not the system. Would be nice if it didnt happen but I verified it was the show, and it doesnt happen often. The rear speakers, one plugs in to an outlet and one uses speaker wire between the two but the APP also allows you to flipp the left and right sound. The bass can be adjusted in the APP, everything uses the APP. The remote is mostly for imput, volume and power. So far Im impressed with the system.

    I got the LG S70TR soundbar recently, and it’s been a great upgrade. The sound is super clear, and the bass from the sub really fills the room. Watching movies with Dolby Atmos feels way more immersive, and setup was quick—especially since I have an LG TV. I love that the rear speakers are wireless too. It’s not crazy loud for huge rooms, but for my space, it’s perfect. Definitely recommend if you want theater-like sound at home.

    Excellent sound bar for my LG OLED C3 65"! If you're like me, you have probably looked at dozens of sound bars with named that make no sense! Being a consumer in this market is difficult, but after doing a ton of review searching, I decided to get this one. My living room is roughly 12 feet from the TV to the couch, and the satellite speakers are on a table behind the couch. A long with the sub woofer, the spacial sound is really amazing. I didn't think it was necessary to get a sound bar, but it's a world of difference. The LG TV connects straight to the sound bar through the HDMI arc port, and you can control the sound bar volume with the TV remote when the TV is on. I believe any higher cost system would be redundant because the size of my room/distance from the TV isn't great enough to warrant more. Personally, I think buying a better bar is a waste of money in this situation. This bar works great and is perfectly clear with the depth of the channels.

    I paid $299 for this while it was on sale. For the price, I feel it is a good product. The sound is good enough for my needs. One downfall is that the rear speakers aren't fully wireless. The left speaker provides power and sound to the right one so there has to be a cable connected between them. I with both were fully wireless.

    I purchased this along with my 65" LG C4 OLED TV to use the WOW Orchestra configuration, and without a doubt the sound is phenomenal! It was easy to pair the subwoofer and the back speakers and I get rich on-screen sound as well as off-screen surround effects! But I do often get a very annoying popping sound when when executing a play/pause/FF/REW both on my cable/DVR and on the streaming services running from the TV! I submitted a ticket with LG and they suggested a few things that helped, but required changing the WOW Orchestra configuration which noticeably degraded the sound quality, so not a real solution since that's why I bought a soundbar in the first place! There is no firmware update available for this model yet, but hopefully LG will resolve this problem soon! The upward firing center voice speaker is a little harsh in 'Standard' sound mode, especially on news type programs with mostly talking! I have settled on 'Cinema' mode as the best overall sound quality, great for movies, TV shows and sports, and good for voice! I look forward to a firmware update from LG that fixes this!
