    Bought this as open box item but said excellent condition. Never worked right with my LG G4 TV. Terrible muffled sound. My son who’s a Sound Techy said I was sold a defective product. Best Buy says I’m past the return period and no help with warranty info. Very frustrating!

      Hi, Michael. Thank you for sharing your experience with the LG Soundbar (S70TR) model. We appreciate your feedback and understand how important it is for your audio setup to deliver clear, immersive sound, especially when paired with an LG TV.

      If you're experiencing muffled sound, one helpful step is to check the Sound Out settings on your LG G4 TV. Go to Settings > All Settings > Sound > Sound Out, and make sure it's set to HDMI ARC or Optical, depending on your connection type. Also, confirm that Sound Mode is set to Standard or Clear Voice to avoid heavy processing that can distort clarity. You can find more setup tips here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oBlEC8u1glQ. If you’d like help confirming warranty coverage or exploring service options, feel free to send us an email at lgdigitalcare@lg.sprinklrsupport.com. We're here to help in any way we can. ^Juvy LG

      Hi, Kathleen. Thank you for your feedback on the LG Soundbar (S70TR). We recognize the importance of sound quality. If you're facing a high-pitched audio issue, try these adjustments: Change to “Cinema” or “Bass Blast” mode for better sound, and use the LG Sound Bar app to tweak the equalizer by increasing bass and lowering treble. Also, check your audio source, as issues might arise from the connected device or streaming quality. For more tips, visit: https://www.lg.com/us/support/product/lg-S70TR.AUSALLK. If you need further help, email us at lgdigitalcare@lg.sprinklrsupport.com. We’re here to assist. ^Juvy LG

    Giving it one star. I’ve been having issues with the subwoofer. I have never gotten close to max volume and I can hear a rattle at certain bass frequencies. Not sure if it’s a voltage issue, interference from WiFi or something broken. I’ve only had it one month. What a waste of money.

      Hi, Lee. Thank you for sharing your experience with the LG Soundbar (S70TR) model. We understand how important it is for your subwoofer to deliver clean, distortion-free bass, and we appreciate your detailed feedback. If you're hearing a rattle at certain bass frequencies, we recommend checking that the subwoofer is placed on a flat, stable surface and that no objects are touching or leaning against it. Also, try lowering the bass level in the soundbar’s audio settings to see if the issue persists at reduced output. You can find more setup and troubleshooting tips here: https://www.lg.com/us/support/product/lg-S70TR.AUSALLK.

    I was informed by the salesman that 4 sets of these speakers were in stock. I ordered them with a 65" OLED TV. I received the tv and was told there were no speakers available and would have to wait. After a week of waiting, they still had no idea on delivery of these speakers. I canceled my entire order. What a disappointment. When I spoke with the service manager, she offered nothing but attitude and negative remarks. She never attempted to even salvage the sale. I really don't believe she comprehends the magnitude of her position.

    LG S70TR Soundbar — poor raspy treble

    Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I purchased this to pair with an LG OLED evo 65" TV. The overall sound experience from this soundbar is pretty subpar. The treble and voice are quite raspy and scratchy sounding. It includes several "bells and whistles" type features, but none can compensate for the overall disappointing sound. There are multiple sound modes as well as some limited custom settings. Overall it is a poor sound experience, especially at this price point. LG support was not very helpful in troubleshooting. I would recommend looking at other soundbar options.

    We had nothing but trouble with this sound bar after the 14 return window was over. We contacted LG many times and their only response was for us to pack it up, ship it to them, and we would have to wait until they repaired it. And we have no soundbar while we wait. So I will never buy another LG product again. They are awful to deal with and don’t care about their customers.

      Hello there, RickyK. We understand that you are experiencing issues with the volume of the rear speakers on your S70TR Home Theater Soundbar, and we understand your disappointment, especially since you are unable to exchange the unit.

      We'd like to help you troubleshoot the low volume issue, as the rear speaker levels are often adjustable and may just need to be increased in the settings.

      The most effective way to adjust the individual speaker levels on this soundbar is typically through the companion application:

      Use the LG Soundbar App (or LG ThinQ App): Download the LG Soundbar App (or LG ThinQ App) to your smartphone. Once connected, the app provides detailed settings where you can manually adjust the volume (decibel level) for the Rear Speakers specifically, as well as the subwoofer and center channel. Try increasing the rear speaker level to see if that resolves the issue.

      Additionally, please check the following:

      Audio Source: Ensure you are playing content that has a true surround sound track (like a Dolby Atmos or 5.1 movie/show). If the content is simple 2-channel stereo, the rear speakers will often be much quieter or silent, as they are only producing ambient/surround effects.

      Surround Sound Setting: Look in your soundbar's settings (either via the remote's function/settings menu or the app) to ensure the Surround Sound setting is enabled, as this helps to upmix stereo content and ensures the rear speakers are active.

      Hi, Steve. Thanks for sharing your experience with the LG Soundbar (S70TR). We appreciate the details about unplugging and reconnecting the bass and mid-range units. A helpful step is to reset and re-pair the wireless subwoofer and rear speakers by holding the Pairing button on the subwoofer until the LED blinks, then using the soundbar’s remote to pair. This refreshes the connection without unplugging. Also, ensure the soundbar’s firmware is updated for better wireless stability.

If you have any questions about our products or need assistance with setup, please send us a private message on our social media platform via @LGUSSupport.
