Customer Ratings & Reviews

THIS… Is the LG Sound Suite H7, LG’s next generation a la carte centerpiece. This soundbar ships with no surround speakers or subwoofer, so if you want more… its a la carte! That being said, let's see how well the H7 stacks up to its competition and if it is worth the hassle (and extra money) of buying everything separately. Ok so taking this out of the box and right off the start, LG has always put on a good unboxing experience and they have done it again with the H7. It has a sleek box and rope handle (which is almost all entirely recyclable) that not only makes carrying this easier… but lets everyone know you just bought a premium product on the way to your car. Ok so enough of the basics, inside the box is the H7, its remote and detachable power cord as well as one HDMI cable (more on that later), some reading material and really nice magnetic wall brackets (with a paper for your wall to level them easier). The H7 uses a well balanced mix of metal and fabric with the fabric stretching over the front from its nice metal back and bottom to create a very premium look and feel while also hiding dust that might collect on the top. The nice thing about the use of fabric is that you can easily lint roll aways most, if not all of the dust and hair that collects on it in a few swoops. The front of the soundbar has a small yet sufficient display on the left side for your volume / mode with a rather comprehensive but tasteful RGB placed in the middle of the soundbar. I am usually not a fan of things that make my soundbar stick out as I'd rather it blend into my setup… but I have to admit the lighting on the front of the H7 is done so well that I actually enjoy it. The thing I usually hate the most with high end soundbars (really looking at sony here) is that you get a super premium soundbar and then a giant 99 cent remote with 40 buttons… but LG did good on this one with a simple but sleek plastic remote with well placed buttons and ergonomics. Nothing too fancy, but nothing I look at and just immediately want to throw away (cough, sony). Setting up this soundbar is actually… really easy? You are prompted to download their app and create an account with them which was somehow the longest part of this process (and not in a bad way) as the actual setup was maybe 3 presses and my wifi password. My soundbar got an immediate firmware update that did take a few minutes, but otherwise I was set up and ready to go in less than 10 minutes. LG using their top of the line Alpha 11 processor really shows in not only how fast it responds to remote input, but in it’s near instant response from the app as well which is fantastic. I also paired two M5 speakers to this soundbar with little to no effort as well, making the whole setup process significantly easier (and faster) than I expected. The App allows you to easily control the soundbar (and its connected devices) rather easily and also lets you connect spotify to your H7 to control the sound through the spotify app which is a nice touch. The cool thing about the H7 is that it will wirelessly connect to your newest generation (gen 5) LG TV wirelessly (2.4g/5ghz wifi) and completely eliminates the need for an HDMI connection. That being said, you can still use the HDMI cable to connect to any other tv to connect sound… just don't expect to use this soundbar as a passthrough for your devices as it only has the one HDMI port that is used to connect it to the TV if you aren’t on the latest Gen 5 LG TV’s. Ok, so this is what we are alllll here for! How does it sound? To be short, it sounds fantastic. With the app, you can center the sound stage to where you sit to create a pretty dialed in surround sound experience. It has crystal clear mids and highs, and while it doesn’t really pack a punch with no dedicated subwoofer, it doesn't feel empty without one. Removed from features, this is the best soundbar in my house on pure audio ability and sound stage and what I thought I was going to get out of the Bravia series soundbar. The app gives decent control over the sound stage as well with several different modes and a 3 band EQ. A cool thing LG did here was the ability to change the volume of each soundbar ‘zone’ such as its overhead, center and side speakers which is nice for some applications and balancing. All gloating aside, this soundbar does lack the thump of a real subwoofer, so if you are wanting a true theater experience… I would go ahead and plan on getting the subwoofer for a complete setup. If you don’t know you are missing it, it is hard to tell… but as soon as you have the subwoofer, you can’t believe you went without it. The M5’s I paired to my H7 added a significant increase in sound stage and immersion as I felt like it really wrapped the room in sound to a level that a soundbar alone can’t. So while yes, it is more money… but it is money well spent. As far as connections, you can only connect one subwoofer (why just one! WHY!!) but up to 4 M7 or M5 side speakers. So while everything is a la carte, it does add up to make a better sound experience than soundbars that have it included like the samsung Q990F at a small but worth it price bump. To wrap this up, LG has really hit it out of the park with this one. From its snappy feature packed app to its crisp sound stage, there is really not much I didn’t like about this soundbar. I think that this has been a pretty well done masterclass on connectivity, features and sound without feeling like I am having to roll out the book to figure out what everything does… it just does it! The price… hurts… but it is hard to doc LG for this when this is how the market is moving and seemingly making the a la carte products more well rounded as now you don’t ‘have to buy’ them but are being lured to buying them now. That being said, bestbuy has a great return policy so you are never stuck with a soundbar that doesn't fit your home or your expectations. Until next time :)

This soundbar is truly fantastic with amazing sound and most importantly, support for the fantastic Dolby FlexConnect tech that allows real flexibility and great sound from add-on speakers. We were honestly impressed by the heft and sound quality from this sound bar. Even within our oddly shaped living room with a vaulted ceiling, LG/Dolby delivered a balanced and immersive sound after its auto-calibration. We own an LG G5 TV which additionally allows for a wireless connection between this soundbar and the TV, but we opted to connect it directly via HDMI and allow the soundbar be the central coordinator for our two M5 speakers. Even with an irregular placement with one speaker behind and another halfway back we had an incredibly immersive sound without a typical surround layout. While we’re getting amazing sound with less components than is typical for a 5.1 equivalent setup, the FlexConnect within this soundbar also has the ability to support more speakers than a 7.1 setup, if you wish. It takes a lot of guesswork and calibrating out of the mix and makes for a very approachable system, even if you might find yourself messing with sound settings at times for various kinds of media, whether that be booming movies or ‘talky’ dramas where you might want the voice to come through more balanced. Luckily LG provides some quick options both from the ThinQ app and their remote. On its own it’s a very nice, hefty soundbar packed with speakers positioned for awesome stereo and good bass, but for surround sound with additional speakers, it’s industry-changing and absolutely the future for most people. At 47” long, it’s also hefty and powerful in itself. We were able to get very similar sound from the H7 and two M5 speakers as we were able to get out of a big receiver, and a full wired 5.1 setup with and a huge subwoofer. In several ways, LG provided the more immersive sound, with better dynamic range - allowing explosions on screen to sound ‘explosive’ rather than toned down. For a perfect comparison, we may buy LG’s compatible sub (W7) to gain more power in the lower range, but it’s still incredible. In additional to allowing flexibility in number of additional speakers and layout, it’s made our living room much more streamlined. The soundbar looks much more clean than our prior left, center, and right speakers - with all of their inherent bulk and cabling. If starting fresh, this is the way to go. Finally the tech has reached a point where buying a receiver doesn’t feel like a necessity in a theater setup. The small screen on the front is great for relaying modes and is very subtle in practice, almost reading like E-ink, despite being OLED in itself. It never distracts from the TV. A central glow on the middle, lower edge of the soundbar also provides some feedback when adjusting volume - and to indicate that it’s active. My only three small issues with this soundbar is that LG doesn’t give a lot of guidance on how to ensure you’ve set things up in the most ideal way. I had an initial issue with delayed audio and it took me a while to realize that I needed to switch my audio output to ‘PCM’ rather than ‘Bitstream’ to eliminate the problem. Second, the included remote borrows the same design and layout as our LG TV, causing confusion at a glance when we grab for the wrong remote. It almost seems like LG went out of their way to fill each button slot with options you may or may not need, rather than make it more straightforward. Third, the ‘AI Upmix’ feature never made improvements to the sound, but rather caused voices to sound distant and tinny. I always leave it off now. Overall__ Despite those nits, it’s a hefty, quality soundbar that makes any TV sound incredible. It then goes further to support a very flexible surround sound system when you add on either M5 or M7 speakers, with great flexibility as to where you place them - and no speaker wires and just standard power plugs on each, with all sound handled wirelessly. I love the sound from this H7 soundbar in both setups and would happily recommend it to anyone, especially if they may want to have the flexibility to extend their system in the future.

Amazing sound bar. So far its the best one I've have gotten, and I have had many over the years, started with just a 2.1, then a 5.1, then a 7.1 and finally this one. The build quality is amazing and there is quality fabric everywhere and it has some heft to it, its long too! At 47", you got to make sure you got the space to put this guy down! Installing it is easy and it has the new Dolby flex connect, which is an amazing system, truly revolutionary. If you have a newer 5 series LG Oled TV (I got a C5), you will be able to connect the soundbar to it wirelessly to it, however there is an update that is coming, so far I was only able to connect two independent M5 speakers, but then I decided to reconnect them directly (wirelessly to the soundbar) (and for that, there was also a firmware update on the TV), so I connected the soundbar via HDMI and it has one eARC HDMI port (one con, doesn't have more input HDMI's, so you must use your TV's ones, and via eARC it will pass the sound to the soundbar). If you don't have one the latest LG Oled TV's, you can still use it this way. The soundbar has a little screen on the front for some information, but I mostly use the app to look up the settings and tune it. With Dolby flex connect, you can place your speakers anywhere you want and it will automatically tune the sound to where they are placed (plays sounds to calibrate itself), since I had two other M5 independent satellites (and they are basically a 1.1.1 speaker themselves), I placed those on the rear, like rear surround ones, and it calibrated the system perfectly. The app is good enough and lets you tune your sound to your liking. Sound was amazing and immersive, considering I have a slanted ceiling, not perfectly flat, I could tell the sounds coming from above from Dolby Atmos height tracks just fine! I was wowed. It also has a setting where the sound can follow you and tune itself to wherever you are seating on the room, so no more having to seat perfectly in the middle of the room for a good listening experience. One small con is it does not support DTS:X sound formats. I also tried my video game console and it worked great too (it outputs Dolby Atmos) and I did not notice any lag between the action on the screen and the sound effects. Like I mentioned, I have two M5 speakers as rears (and each has a front and top firing speakers and integrates subwoofers), but with this system you can add more seamlessly and it will auto tune them. I'm planning to buying a pair more and put them on the sides and I'll be set! In all, best sound system I've had and if you are planning on upgrading your sound setup, you won't be disappointed!

TLDR: A significant upgrade from LG's previous generation. Dolby Flex Connect makes setting up a surround sound system pain-free. This review will mirror a lot of my M5 review, as they were sent along with this H7 soundbar for evaluation. PROS Flex Connect Auto Room Calibration Multiple Placement Options and Configurations Compatible with all TV's that have eARC, not just LG CONS Non-standard wall mount bracket spacing for soundbar Cold sounding with little warmth from drivers Not compatible with Amazon Prime Music APP / INSTALLATION For anyone who has ever set-up a surround system in the past, the Dolby Atmos Flex-Connect is an absolute game changer. Buyers are no longer required to run dozens of feet of speaker wires, knock holes in their walls for surrounds, connect everything to an often-complicated home theater receiver and then spend hours calibrating to perfection. Today? Easy. If you have a compatible LG TV, buyers need only find 3 power outlets, as plugging in the power cords is the most difficult part of installing an LG Sound Suite. Don't have a compatible LG TV with Flex Connect built-in? No worry. The system works just as well with an e-ARC connection as well. I tried the system with both a compatible LG OLED and a non-compatible Hisense TV. Both work flawlessly with the Sound Suite. This new LG Sound Suite is replacing a good, but aging LG S95TR surround system. While the S95TR was good at the time, but WowOrchestra was already reaching end of life. Plus, the S95 system was very particular with speaker placement. VERY PARTICULAR. Even with its built-in calibration, sound was still a bit off and not fully convincing and enveloping. You can immediately tell after a true back-to-back comparison that the Dolby Atmos Flex Connect has far more precision and processing power than the long-in-the-tooth WowOrchestra and the S95TR. While not my favorite of apps, LG should be commended at developing a universal app that accommodates products from all their consumer lines. Just like nearly every recent product, the Sound Suite is configured with the LG ThinQ app. It's easy enough to use and does a decent job of organizing disparate products under one roof. Setting up the Sound Suite in the ThinQ app was easy and non-eventful, though it took considerably more time to update firmware and adopt the speakers than I would have thought. DOBLY ATMOS FLEX CONNECT What makes DAFC so revolutionary? It the ease and simplicity of nearly unlimited speaker placement options and the ability to overcome and compensate for less-than-ideal placement. DAFC is FAR superior to WowOrchestra in EVERY way. Start by getting your soundbar connected via whatever means (e-ARC or Flex). Once configured and updated, you can then add your L/R or Surround speakers. Not sure how you want them to work? No worries. Try them as a L/R Front pair. Change your mind? No worries either. Feel free to move them to surrounds. Why? Because as soon as you move speaker placements, the Flex Connect algorithm will go back and adjust those speakers based on placement. No configuration changes, no menus in your receiver to navigate, just a simple tap within the LG app and the magic begins. Using a series of test tones (music) the soundbar listens to itself and any other available Flex Connect compatible speakers. In my case, compatible speakers included the LG Sound Suite M5's. Using some technical wizardry, the Dolby Atmos Flex Connect algorithm automagically determines speaker placement, distance, volume levels, delay times, etc. It works so slick. I can't believe how far home theater has come since the first Dolby surround receivers. What used to take hours to tweak to perfection, now takes literally 1 minute, at the most. It is scary accurate. SOUND QUALITY While the LG Sound Suite is a solid step above my existing S95TR system, i still find the Sound Suite overly flat. It's as if Peerless went above and beyond to try and make the Sound Suite neutral sounding. Almost too much so. Even after calibration and tweaking of the tone controls, the Sound Suite lacks soul and sounds unnecessarily sterile. Hard to describe and not a deal breaker, but if you are used to a system that sounds warm and welcoming, this is not for you. To give a fair break to LG, this system ships without the available subwoofer. Having the ability to produce some lower octaves may, and would surely, change the entire listening experience. Even with its neutral sound, it still is leaps and bounds better than my SG10TY soundbar and sub combo. The added woofers in the H7 soundbar do a better job at providing a much fuller soundstage than the SG10 or the S95TR. NEGATIVES This system supports Spotify Connect and Apple Airplay but doesn't natively support Amazon Prime Music Streaming. The system will not show up as a destination in the Prime Music app while streaming unless you pair it with lossy Bluetooth while using an Android-based phone or tablet. The second issue is as mentioned above, the overly sterile sound and lack of personality. FINAL THOUGHTS The era of huge AV receivers, hundreds of feet of speaker wire, and what often comes just short of a renovation to install a home theater is coming to a close. I've been a home theater buff since the very beginning of the Dolby Pro-Logic systems back in the day. I remember spending hours and days making over rooms into dedicated home theaters. My OCD attention to detail often earned props from the spousal acceptance factor, while the multiple remotes that were often required, complicated menus, and input switching did not. Even basic home theaters were often too complicated to be readily accessible for all family members. LG and Dolby are changing all that. As soundbars started becoming more popular, us home theater folks would scoff at their sound quality and dimensionality. The offerings today are putting us in our places. Easily blurring the lines of a dedicated home theater and a soundbar-based system. Offering performance that is often on par with all but the most lavish systems, make a system like the LG Sound Suite wildly appealing. Ease of installation and configuration without the penalties inherent to systems like these in the past. Home theater soundbars and systems have come a long way. Well done LG! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Tried a Bose soundbar with my new 77" C5 LG TV, and was very dissatisfied. So decided to give this H7 a go, and wished I'd tried it first. It's a fantastic addition. Sound is excellent, and even without a dedicated subwoofer, it provides satisfying bass. Decodes surround sound quite well. It's a solid piece of kit. Hefty and long enough to look right at home below the C5. Setup couldn't have been any easier. Just plug it in, connect to an HDMI port, update the software using the LG ThinQ app and off you go. Thought the WowCast! would be gimmicky, but it works quite well. Only knock against it is no pass-through HDMI, so you'll lose an input on the TV. And Best Buy even priced matched it for me two weeks after purchase, knocking an additional $100 of the $999 price I paid for it before this current sale at $899 (as of 5/19/26). Highly recommended.

Ok ok I love soundbars and in box home theatre systems and I have had plenty of them from the ARC ultra with ERA 300’s to the newest one my Bravia theatre quad I am always excited to get a new sound system and because I love LG TV’s this was a seamless no brainer and OMG does it work great with my TV. This flex system came perfectly packed and this soundbar is pretty large and hefty but it came in perfect condition and I already had a bracket for it so i was super excited. Atmos is so hard to do from a soundbar because of the lower profile and limited sound stage I realize the updating speakers never really do as good as a dedicated 5.1.2 or 9.2.4 or whatever set up you might use. What I like is the simplicity , the use of the app, the functionality with my LG C5 83” and decent performance. Decent performance means this thing will crank up the music and provide an immersive experience you will miss some the chimes and stuff that I hear on my Bravia quad or my home theatre dictated system. For a soundbar alone yes it adds a punch however you need the spacial audio speakers and the sub which I can’t find yet. Base from the soundbar is not enough to immerse you in movies but it is enough for regular TV dialog etc. I love how this ties into my C5 and plan on using it over my other systems for that reason alone.

LG has figured it out and put together all of the pieces of the puzzle with their new Sound Suite lineup. This new system checks almost every box but solves the biggest enigma of all, full Dolby Atmos sound without wires for more than a sound bar and 2 satellites. While there are still currently some limits on how many elements you can add to the system, Dolby Atmos Flex Connect (DAFC) with the LG Sound Suite provides a glimpse of what the future of home theater audio is going to look and sound like. The first thing you will notice is how great the Sound Suite system LOOKS. Premium materials all around with aluminum and metal finishes. Cloth mesh grills. Soft LED accent lighting that can be adjusted slightly in color. Great looks and styling with a blend of curves and straight geometry. The H7 itself has a sharp looking metal bottom frame and mesh all around which looks and feels so much more premium than my previous LG system with oddly placed speaker grills focused on function over aesthetics. The mesh and metal body are also big improvements over the all plastic body of my S95TR system. The H7 itself is very hefty at roughly 20lb. and while it is slightly shorter than the S95TR, it is both deeper and overall heavier. One thing to note, with my testing and confirmed by a Reddit post set up by LG for this Sound Suite system, is that the H7 still requires a wired eARC connection to your TV. Eventually, you will be able to go wireless from an LG TV C5/G5 (2025) or newer using Wowcast, but that feature is not coming until later in 2026. I tried setting it up wirelessly with my 77" G5 and then went looking and found the response. The M5/M7 satellites can however be setup using Wowcast direct to your LG TV, however, you can also connect those using DAFC to your H7. Since I already had an H7, I did just connect my 2xM5 to it via the App. Overall, setting up DAFC was easy, however, connecting it to WiFi was very hit or miss so please note you may run into issues if you use WiFi6/7 mesh systems and a wireless network that uses 5GHz and 6GHz bands. LG recommends that you disable the 5/6GHz bands or use a dedicated IoT SSID with just 2.4GHz to set up the Sound Suite components, and then re-enable 5/6GHz and reconnect to that network. This process was seamless on the H7, but on the two M5s this was much more difficult and required multiple pairing attempts. Ultimately, I was able to connect the M5s using a 2.4GHz router, update the firmware and then swap back after cycling the power. Not a great experience and I have a feeling this will be the main problem folks have with this system. One GUI improvement LG can make is not auto-caching the SSID, and allowing the user to both see and delete/change the SSID before the app attempts to reconnect. Hopefully LG continues to update the firmware and improves this experience. A few other big updates/improvements I noticed. The H7 has a nice LED display! I'm not sure why companies got away from this but LG brings it back and its great to see the input, what format audio (Dolby Atmos, LPCM etc) and what source input (HDMI eARC, WiFi, etc.). The remote is also much improved and looks better compared to the larger multi-color rounded remotes that look like a Cable remote. There's also a few regressions and downgrades from previous LG soundbars and soundbar expectations in general. There's no built-in voice assistant support like Alexa, Siri or Google Voice. This isn't a total dealbreaker since you can just use Chromecast or Apple Airplay and cast from your phone, or use the built-in app on your TV or in my case, Apple TV to then play music using the Alexa/Amazon Music app. Its not quite as convenient as just asking Alexa to play a music station however, and that is still something Sonos supports. Also, using Airplay changes the input on the soundbar, and it doesn't seem to autoswap back to the last input using HDMI-CEC. I'll keep playing with this. It does improve on the eARC detection on power up compared to my S95TR with Phillips Hue Sync Box however, so that was a pleasant surprise. It also doesn't support DTS:X, but you can decode at your device and output over LPCM but this is definitely a Dolby Atmos and only Atmos soundbar. So how does it sound? A massive improvement and I am only using 3 components total, no subwoofer, just the H7 in front of the TV and 2xM5 (must be used in pairs bc they are mono, or 1xM5 1xM7) as rear satellites. There is plenty of bass for me as I don't need wallshaking bass anymore with young children. I will likely get the W7 when it becomes available but I'm not sure I need it. I'll also likely get 2xM5 for the front side or middle channels at some point but there really isn't any urgency as the Sound Suite already sounds amazing! Setup in the app or on the TV is simple, just choose the DAFC components you want to add/configure, do some test tones and the DAFC system auto maps and configures based on speaker placement. You can then use Sound Follow with your phone to calibrate sound according to where you are sitting in the room. Everything is crystal clear from voices, to surround sound from the rear channels. If you're keeping tally on price, you'll have noticed with the H7+2xM5+W7 you're looking at close to two grand. If you add two more satellites (current max config), you're adding another five to eight hundred bucks. And apparently there's plans to allow another subwoofer too. Bottomline, if you have a top of the line LG TV (or other model and use eARC to the H7), the Sound Suite with Dolby Atmos Flex Connect is a fantastic option especially if you don't have speaker wires and want to declutter. Just as importantly, the system LOOKS amazing and rivals the sharpest looking models out there from Sonos, Sennheiser, Marshall, B&O, Samsung. And, the sound is fantastic too, taking aim at Sonos in the standalone or aggregated speaker market, however, there is some regression in connectivity as mentioned like lack of standalone Alexa/Voice integration and DTS:X support.

The LG H7 soundbar is a massive piece of equipment with the technology to back it up. I mention its size because it’s truly the largest soundbar I’ve ever owned or seen. For fun, I added a picture of it next to soundbars in a comparable class. Given this bar is designed specifically for LG C5 and G5 class OLEDs, there is no TV in this lineup where the soundbar will look too big or too small. Sound quality wise, it’s outstanding and is able to utilize the AI Sound Pro feature from compatible LG TVs. It’s a 5.1.3 soundbar, and the bass delivered from the soundbar sub is much better than I would have ever expected. Some quick tips: since you are running Dolby Atmos, you’ll want to use HDMI eARC, and I set my Digital Sound Output to Pass Through just to be safe. Also, you may get prompted and asked if you want to turn on TV Sound Mode Share when setting this up. Select no. This feature processes the sound at the TV level, but sound should pass through directly to the soundbar for processing. Dolby Atmos Flex Connect (DAFC) is where it’s at when it comes to this soundbar. Really, if you are getting this soundbar, you should be planning to add a pair of M5s or the M7 speaker, otherwise you are leaving the best feature on the table. DAFC, along with LG’s Sound Follow calibration, analyzes your room and then dynamically assigns roles to each speaker to create a Dolby Atmos layout. In other words, moving the M5 speakers behind you will make them function as true rear speakers. Move them to the front and it’ll recalibrate and widen the front soundstage. The speakers don’t lose channels though, they just reallocate spatial responsibilities depending on the configuration. The remote control looks identical to the TV remote, which can be a bit confusing. The TV remote controls the speaker with no issues or lag, so the soundbar remote will live in my nightstand drawer for all eternity to avoid confusion. The app is pretty simple to use (LG ThinQ). I found the initial setup to be a little confusing, but still it took only a few minutes to figure it out. One minor gripe is the app only lets you select four colors for the soundbar front light (amber, yellow, red and blue). The LED can clearly support more, as made evident by simply pressing the AI Sound Pro button on the remote, which lights the soundbar up with a rainbow light bar for a brief second. A huge bonus is this soundbar includes a wall mount and mounting template. The template is very important, because the mount has indentations that have to perfectly align to the base of the soundbar, allowing you to secure it to the wall mount via the included screws. My mount gives a bit due to the weight of the soundbar, which creates a slight lean despite being very well secured into my wall. My hope is the LG Sound Suite set will be the beginning of unifying speakers throughout a brand. Historically, we’ve relied on connectivity software from the manufacturer, but in this case, DAFC helps act as the spatial and coordination layer. Imagine how nice it would be to just see “DAFC” on an LG speaker box and know it’s compatible with your current setup. In years past, Bose switched from their older connectivity platform to the Bose Music ecosystem, which turned my pricey soundbar virtually obsolete for scaling out. If we are truly moving toward a more stable, software driven connectivity architecture, we could unify speakers throughout a brand and really create some amazing possibilities. Overall, it’s an unbelievable soundbar and definitely worthy of matching the display quality of my LG OLED. For reference, I have the C5 65” in my photos. I would really only pursue this soundbar if you are aiming to get more Sound Suite speakers though, because otherwise you aren’t going to experience what this system really has to offer

It sounds good, but I do unfortunately have buyer's remorse. I didn't notice that this only had an eARC input and NOT have pass though HDMI, meaning, for those that don't have a WOWcast tv, you'll have at least two cables to your TV. This set me on a backstep and made me more critical that it does not support DTS. NGL, the idea that I could put the speakers anywhere was a big part of my decision as well, but this turned out to be kind of gimicky. Its not going to magically throw sound and make it feel like speakers you placed in front of your listening area are actually behind you. So, you'll end up just moving the speakers back to a normal surround position anyway. If I was able to start over, I'd have spent half as much and just went with the Q990 which my brother has and sounds just as good.

[Employee of bestbuy] Bought the H7 soundbar with the M7 and M5 speakers and every bit sounds great. Connects easy and allows other speakers to connect quickly with a easy calibration to map the speakers in your room. The soundbar has multiple audio presets which you can choose from such as AI upscale if you want to utilize all the speakers all the time and fills your space much better, but I still prefer the standard mode which makes dialogue and movies sound much clearer and more like how its intended. The dialogue is very clean but can also take advantage of the clear voice pro for sports or news when all you want to hear is dialogue which will get louder but may not sound as clean of audio. The bar itself also has great bass response for the smaller room I placed it in but for those who enjoy more bass I would wait for the subwoofer as I am to hear the full system. Overall sounds great and works perfectly with my LG OLED.

I've had this soundbar for a few weeks now and I'm happy with the purchase. I've used it directly from my LG TV and watching dvd's/blu-rays from my PS5. When I first used it I wouldn't understand why I had to increase the volume on the soundbar so much to get it even remotely loud. I decided to Google why the soundar wasn't loud and found instructions on how to make sure the sound passes through to the soundbar instead of being modified by the TV and PS5 and to my excitement the soundbar was very loud at a low volume. So I recommended searching for your type of TV and whatever else you're using to play sound from to ensure you're getting the max volume possible from the soundbar. The only downside is how expensive the subwoofer is, and even though this soundbar has subwoofers it's not nearly enough if you enjoy the nice sound from movies. I still rated this a 5 star because it met my expectations as is without the subwoofer. The extra speakers are pricey as well if you want surround sound. But great without that.

I bought this soundbar to go with my new lg oled in a small room. This is a quality soundbar thay has more bass than expected. Adding the subwoofer provides a immersive experience. I may have to get the satellite speakers to finish the set. I wonder how much more immersive can this get!

It amazes me how directional and great the sound is from this sound bar. Not a lot of bass response but very crisp sound.

Sound is great, needs subwoofer and rears to make complete can only add up to three rears and sub kinda whacky on lgs part

I personally think Lg is the best when it comes to soundbars and TVs I like that this is fairly simple to setup we got the subwoofer and the w7 speakers as well those were really easy to setup but the soundbar gave me a little bit of a headache but once I got it hooked up it was great this soundbar is hooked up to my bedroom tv which is a 65 lg C3 great tv and works perfectly with it

This soundbar fills the room as if it was a full surround sound system even by itself!

THE best sounding soundbar I’ve ever heard. A lot of bass for a soundbar too, which I was pleasantly surprised. Pair this with 2 M7s and you’re set.

Very pleased with thus Soundbar. Excellent audio quality!

I recently purchased a LG TV and I wanted to get a better sound so I purchased the H7 sound bar. I have a very large family room with 18 foot ceiling and the sound fills the room fantastically.

This LG H7 soundbar is incredible! Had the Sonos arc ultra and thought nobody can beat it until I got the H7 incredible sound and ease of use.
