Disconnect from LG TV -do not buy
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The first unit I bought would not stay connected to my brand new LG TV so I returned it as perhaps it was a lemon per geek squad. The new one is worse so I called back at day 16 and they said you had to return it by day 15. I’m stuck with a $500 sound bar that disconnects whenever it feels like it. I’m not pleased.

Weak bass, do not buy
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These newer units have very little bass / low end response, it is a known issue probably related to limits within their new software. https://www.reddit.com/r/Soundbars/comments/1icwt4s/lg_s80tr_weak_bass/

Posted .Hi, Robert. Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback on the LG Soundbar (S80TR) model. We understand how important rich, deep bass is to your overall audio experience. We strive to provide high-quality products that exceed our customers' needs and expectations. If you're finding the low-end performance lacking, try adjusting the bass level and sound mode via the LG Sound Bar app or the remote. Selecting "Cinema" or "Bass Blast" can enhance the bass response.
Ensure the subwoofer is correctly paired and placed away from walls or corners, as this affects bass performance. Keeping your software updated is also crucial, so check for the latest firmware through the LG app. For more assistance, visit https://www.lg.com/us/support/help-library/lg-soundbar-how-to-connect-to-thinq-and-update-soundbar-software--1428604854142.

Sound
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For a system designed for LG televisions the overall sound quality is very poor! Sales guys recomended this for the very reason LG is for LG. System has no depth and is very tinny.

Amazing
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been in the marker for a good soundbar and subwoofer combo. I stumbled upon the entry level brother of this big boy, and let me tell you I think this is the right set of speakers for those who enjoy elevated sounds, crisp immersive sound, and loud bass. Some of the comments regarding the bass have said it was lacking kick or strength, but im not going to assume, but the app is the key factor in how this sound system will function. I placed it in the setting for bass, cranked it up to the highest setting and its wayyyyy more than enough. The different functions on the app tell the speakers how to function. The cost is for sure higher than the entry level speaker, but this one is perfect for me and the use im planning on putting her through. When you compare it to the sony, bose, sonos, youre in a different tax bracket if you dont mind paying $400+ for each set that came with this system. Overall, extremely satisfied! If you are in the market for something more elevated and dont mind spending, please consider this set!

Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very good soundbar. Has good sound quality. I recommend it
I would recommend this to a friendS80TR is a bit overpriced
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This soundbar is limited by not having an equalizer for fine tuning to meet your specific listening requirements. I find the upfiring center channel to be sub-par. Voice sound should be crystal clear but it’s not. It gets mixed in with all other sound. Shop around
No, I would not recommend this to a friendWould Not Even Turn On
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this for my brand new LG C4 OLED 65” TV. After spending a long time with LG support, the soundbar wouldn’t even turn on. I returned it and did not want a replacement. Support was mot even surprised it wouldn’t turn on and told me it was defective. Reading between the lines, I think this happens a lot!!
