Marcie_D 1/21/2023

I purchased this sound bar as a gift for my husband. It took a little time getting the subwoofer to connect because we had it too close. Not that it connects every time we love it. It adds to every movie we watch. We have had a problem finding rear soeakers to add to the experience.

I find setup cumbersome and not working

ErwinJS 12/14/2022

I think it does what it does with Dolby Atmos--with just two speakers up front. Note that it does NOT come with rear speakers even though the description says 5.1.2. Its really frustrating. Also they dont have any available rear speakers anymore so it makes the system moot. Connecting this soundbar to WiFi is impossible using the app or I dont even know how else

Great sound at a great price when on sale

Jake1212 11/20/2022

I recently bought a LG C2 55 OLED Evo. And the TV was ok but the lows werent the best so I wanted a soundbar. I buy a soundbar with every LG tv I purchase. Its a necessity no matter your budget. Especially with winter coming buy your electronics before January. Anyways I love the soundbar and how I can use the TV remote to change the volume. Its genius. 9/10 LG. Its not perfect but its very close.

Great value and sound quality for the price

MikeM70 10/7/2022

While not the top of the line this sound bar has rich and full sound and supports Dolby standards along with DTS and LG AI and preset profiles. If I had any complaints they would be minor. Like the E-ARC support is fine up and until you want to use pass though. If you use a pass through configuration with E-ARC you will lose HDMI 2.1 support for 120hz refresh TV models. This does make since because the whole point of E-ARC vs ARC is high speed with added 2.1 features. But ultimately you dont need to use pass through for decent E-ARC support because all the HDMI ports support 2.1 speeds so just plug the external devices directly into the TV and the sound bar into an E-ARC compatible port on the tv also.

Got for a good price with otherwise not worth it

Ryaan 10/6/2022

This soundbar has worked well for me. I got it since I got an LG C1 which I love. There are issues such as the bass having an odd thumping noise that seems to happen randomly the bass is a bit weak in general and the sound can be tinny sometimes as well as not super clear dialogue sometimes. Its very loud for me and generally sounds very nice. I just believe this is no where near worth MSRP. I got it for around 380 and for that I am happy with it. Its very odd there is very little info avaliable online about this specific soundbar

The ins and outs

Happier now 8/8/2022

Startup was a bit clunky. The audio would not play thru the sound bar initially although I have selected OPT for optical connection and could not control the sound level . After I few power cycles output option said OPT+TV speakers then all was good including sound control with my LG TV remote. I also advise a new user to download the LG app for your as it allows you a lot of settings of speaker levels. The separate sound bar Woofer speaker unit so far doesnt add much to the overall sound experience but I will continue to tune this in further. P.S. When I had setup questions the LG customer service people were not very helpful. The first agent said she LG Canada And LG Canada products were different from US products although I had used the phone number listed on the material that CS with the sound bar. She transferred me to LG US support. That agent lost my call as it was close to their closing time.

I recently bought this sound bar to go with a new LG TV. The sound from this unit is amazing. Truly sounds like a theater. The sound bar has a very clean sound and the subwoofer adds a great deal of depth. Very happy with this purchase. In fact I find myself listening to music through it with a Bluetooth connection to my phone. I would definitely recommend this product.

Great when it works

Mat216 4/28/2022

Ive had this sound bar for almost a year now and I can say that the sound is really great when the bar functions properly. Shortly after I bought it the problems started. There were popping and whining sounds coming from the unit at random times or sometimes the sound would drop out altogether. So Id have to un and replug the unit to get it to function properly. Sometimes it wouldnt even turn on at all. After updating the software it still doesnt turn on half of the time and when it does its a roll of the dice as to which sound profile it will choose cinema game sports etc. All of that being said I still enjoy this sound bar I just wish it would work all of the time instead of some of the time.

Great soundbar but could use some work

isaacrivera6 4/18/2022

Its been about two weeks with the soundbar and really like the quality of the sound and the simplicity to set up. The design is great low space needed and clean cable setup especially with the wireless subwoofer. Only issue is I couldnt for the life of me figure out how to connect it through wifi. At the end it the issue was just that they recommend using WiFi 2.4 and not WiFi 5 which is proven to work. Sadly WiFi 5 is the only option available in my place. Had the same issue with an LG tv I bought recently. Would give it 5 starts if they could fix that on all their newer devices.

Clear highs lows not so much

ATX Bet 3/26/2022

I bought the SP9YA about a month ago and have tried it its eq options for movies sports and regular tv. The highs on the tv including projecting voice are good but the mid to low range are a bit overwhelming. To get the surround effects you dont want to be too far from the soundbar and want to emphasize the side/back speaker effects. At times it seems that the soundbar will interfere with the network connectivity of my LG G1 OLED. when I disconnect the soundbar from the e-arc Bluetooth or Wi-Fi connection seems the tv connects faster. There is no direct control feature on soundbar to control EQ that can only be done by phone app. Adjusting the EQ doesnt seem to be linear in terms amount of gain vs output and possibly reason why even highest settings for woofer still doesnt produce the lows desired. If you like more of a balanced sound and emphasis more on high end of spectrum then the soundbar could be of your liking. From a value perspective I think the soundbar is more competitive in the $500-$600 range of soundbar.

Its just OK

pmbaltzell 3/9/2022

I bought this soundbar almost 6 months ago just because I bought an LG tv and thought they would go good together. Sounds good when watching tv and listening to music. I use the echo dot to play music bluetoothed to the soundbar. Problem is the soundbar doesnt sense a source after 15 minutes and shuts off with the music still playing on the echo dot. I havent found a fix to this so its still annoying.

olchev 3/1/2022

I have an older bar by LG the SP9YA blows it away. Sound is great. Hearing voices are sometimes hard to hear. This bar is set up to use google but unlike our other bar must go thru the actual google device. Like other bars feature to say OK Google and have the bar work. Overall this is a great option for a sound bar. Plug and play with LG OLED TV.

MKG99988 2/22/2022

This sound bar works great. It integrates nicely with the TV requiring no extra remotes or anything for it to work once setup. I originally had a hdmi cable that didnt support ethernet and it didnt work but I called support and they told me about the cable. Replaced it and all was good.

Sound is good but software lacking

Mjm10 2/21/2022

The soundbar has good sound but there are a number of software problems with it. Problem #1 is the HDMI input will not start playing on the LG TV the device connected to the HDMI input is turned on. When the device is turned on the soundbar turns on and the TV turns on to the correct HDMI input but the HDMI is not being passed through the soundbar. I always have to hit the input button on the soundbar remote to get the HDMI pass through to work. I am using ARC audio to the soundbar. Problem #2 is after using the soundbar to play Wi-Fi audio using Alexa control then turning on the TV the soundbar will play audio at the wrong clock rate and it will be garbled. The only way I have found to fix this is to power cycle the soundbar which is a real pain. This does not always happen but it is often enough. Problem #3 is the soundbar will sometimes lose Wi-Fi connectivity so that Alexa can no longer use the soundbar. The fix for this is to open up the soundbar application then hold the Wi-Fi button down for about 10 seconds until the soundbar resets. Again this doesnt happen too often but when it does it is a pain.

Cant turn display off

R5Ryder 2/6/2022

Purchased a couple of weeks ago. It sounds amazing but theres no way to turn off the display so youre staring at E-ARC while youre watching everything. I cant believe that they didnt think that would be annoying to people. It dims after a few seconds but barely. It sounds like a minor complaint but not when you have it mounted right below your TV so you can see the display all the time. According to LG theres no way that any software update can possibly solve this in the future. Really really disappointing.

Good Sound bar

Fmillerjr 2/6/2022

Ive had this sound bar for about 11 months. The sound quality is very good and I am happy with the features. I also added the wireless surround sound speakers which is an excellent addition. However I have had to send it off for repair still under warranty as the Bluetooth subwoofer would not connect and then would not turn on at all. Personally I wish I would have spent a little more money to get a nicer system with better sound quality. The sound bar is in a very large room with an LG tv.
