Easy setup and good sound. With the LG app you can change the rear speaker L/R to R/L. It took me a minute to figure it out, but was pretty easy.

Good budget soundbar with good quality surround sound. Just know that it will NOT auto-connect to a Samsung tv--even with "auto power on" and all settings correct, I had to reconnect the hdmi cable every time I turned on the tv. It may work better connected to an LG tv, but the documentation says it should work with any tv that has an eArc port.

Bought this to replace a Vizio sound bar, our old one took a dump so I have an LG TV and figured this would pair nice with it, bought it on black Friday price and so far we love it..sports, movies, music, it all sounds good. Bass is decent and the clarity is nice.

Wonderfully Immersive Sound System from LG

The salesman convinced me to buy the Samsung 3.1 soundbar and that it would provide a quality sound better than the LG 5.1. He was 100% WRONG. Yes, the Samsung's was a clear sound with good base but I told him that I wanted to be in the middle of the action and actually feel like I was in the stands watching a game or hearing sounds from the action of a drama cross behind and around me. That's what this LG system provides. It's great. Also, when I'm not watching television, I turn on youtube and listen to tunes and the sound is incredible. I'll turn the rear speakers towards the kitchen and here great music there and throughout the house. For affordable great listening, this is the system to buy.

I’m really impressed with the quality of this soundbar. The sound is clear and powerful, and the bass really hits — it gives a true deep, rich feel when watching movies or playing music. The 3D audio effect makes everything feel more immersive, not flat like regular TV speakers. Pairing it with my Bluetooth device was quick and easy, took only a minute. I also like that your TV doesn’t have to be LG to use it, which makes it more flexible. Overall, great audio and definitely worth it for the upgrade.

It is a good sound bar, can get very loud while watching movies/shows. Only problem I have which seems to happen often is it will not connect to my TV so I have to unplug and plug back in to make it work

Amazing Sound and Bass!

I fell in love with this soundbar! The sound is incredible! The bass that comes out of the subwoofer is amazing as well! With this surround sound setup, I feel completely immersed in a movies environment when watching action, suspense, thrillers, etc. It’s so good that sometimes, the sounds from the back speakers seem like they’re coming from my own environment. I also connect it to my phone via Bluetooth and listen to music. Music sounds amazing. You can use the LG ThinQ app to access the devices settings and adjust the volume, bass and treble. You can change the volume of the soundbar, subwoofer and back speakers individually. There are many different “Sound Effects” settings, such as Standard, Cinema, Sports, Music, Games, Music, Bass Blast, AI Sound Pro and Clear Voice Pro. I prefer the app over the remote control. I can use my TV remote if I just want to to change the volume. The LED display is clear and legible. It was very easy to set up. I do find it weird that you have to plug in the speakers in a specific order (I think it goes soundbar, subwoofer, then rear), but thats not a big deal. I got this on sale, but even at full cost, it’s worth the money!

This is my first 5.1 system, so I have nothing to compare to other than my 2.0 soundbars. I was interested in the Vizio 5.1 system because it was offered at a lower price and has Dolby Atmos. But, that system does not come with a remote and is controlled through a phone app. I like to have a remote with soundbars for quick changes if necessary, so I went with this LG S60TR system.
I am mainly writing this review to draw attention to a couple of items for other customers to consider while evaluating this product. I have noticed some reviews calling out the limitations of the Simple Manual. Simple Manuals like this are just quick start guides and do not say anything about the full capabilities. I strongly recommend for LG to consider the following in the Simple Manual, under Installing and Using the Product: There is a sentence that reads "To view the instructions of advanced features, visit...." LG is REALLY selling themselves short and misleading the customer here. The "advanced" features are actually very important fundamental features to understand and use if the customer is to truly get a 5.1 system operating. If the customer simply takes the product out of the box and assembles and sets it up per what is in the Simple Manual, they will end up with nothing more than what sounds like a 2.0 system or even worse given the defaults that run (for example, Surround Sound is OFF by default). So, the wording should not be "advanced" features, but rather should say something like "To view the instructions covering the full capabilities and to optimize your soundbar, visit...."
A second thing I would like to mention is how the old phrase "garbage in, garbage out" applies to soundbars. So, before someone evaluates a soundbar system, they will need to consider the source of the input. If the input source does not support Surround Sound and/or has a low quality audio format, don't blame your soundbar on the output audio quality. If the source is music or a movie with a high quality audio format, then the user will want to make sure their soundbar system is set to optimize the particular input. Luckily, the S60TR system has a sound effect setting "AI SOUND PRO" that should do this automatically, but in my experience, I occasionally find another sound effect category that can make things even better.
I don't know why LG has set a default of NO Surround Sound on this system, but I think it is the first setting one should change to an ON setting. I have seen some reviews stating that the rear speakers and subwoofer are not working, but it is probably because they unknowingly have Surround Sound off.
With all this said, I am very happy with the S60TR for the price. I am one who likes to explore and experiment with all of the settings and optimize. I don't know how things would sound if this system was Dolby Atmos capable like the Vizio in the same class, but what I have certainly meets my needs. I experimented with the volume to see where distortion may creep in. Well, it never set in. I did not want to push it beyond the point where my friendly neighbors would be disturbed, so lets just say I pushed it to the realistic point. :-)
