Wonderful sound. Great looks too.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I currently have a SC9S soundbar system to go with my 55" C3 OLED TV. Everything works just fine and as advertised. A friend of mine has the last years' 77" C3 TV and the S95QR soundbar system. He is now thinking about going to a larger theatre sound system and his SPQ8-W sub-woofer may become available. As both system sub-woofers are wi-fi connected and from the same C3 time period would the SPQ8-W sub work in my system? It would seem to give me deeper bass as the driver is larger and with more power. Thanks.

Hi Jak, thank you for sharing your feedback. It’s great to hear your SC9S Soundbar is performing well with your C3 OLED setup. Regarding your question: the SPQ8‑W subwoofer is not compatible with the SC9S system. Each LG soundbar model is designed to pair only with its specific, included wireless subwoofer, so mixing models—even from the same year—won’t connect or function properly. If you need further assistance, feel free to email lgdigitalcare@lg.sprinklrsupport.com. ‑LG Digital Care Team ^Rich

Every flat screen needs one

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very impressed so far with the sound bar. Been looking at one for a long time and was very happy to get this which is compatible with my LG tv and fits seamlessly into the stand recess at the bottom of the TV to help hide all the wires. Out of the box the sound bar is a good size but the sub was quite big. The bar looks great and is very minimalist with just a few touch buttons on the top. The set up was easy enough though I would have liked a better instruction manual to help with settings after installation. It’s hard to know what the bar is set up as as no onscreen information or options came up except on the TV sound settings. The remote seems pretty worthless to this regard as nothing seems to happen or change when you use it and I have no manual that tells me what it does. It has wifi and Bluetooth but doesn’t say wether it can connect to the tv via this or is it just for mobile and other devices to stream from. After some online research I finally set it up I think to work with the TV. Advantages. Great sound compared to the TV speakers. Looks great Disadvantages. Needed better set up instructions. Sticks out a long way under tv Sub is rather big Overall a great sounding bar and happy to have it. Still fiddling to get the sound options I like.

Well made, easy to set up and fantastic performanc

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] From the moment you receive the delivery to hitting the first song or movie, you’re impressed with the quality. The item was packed well, although a one-page ‘quick start’ on top would have been nice. That said, its as easy as plugging in and connecting an HDMI cable to get up and running. The device pairs so nicely with an LG tv – automatically pairs the remote control so the soundbar and TV remotes are interchangeable. The subwoofer automatically paired with the sound bar. It really was an absolute doddle to get up and running. And then there’s the performance. I was previously really impressed with the sound quality of the speakers on my LG OLED tv but now, having added the sound bar, I could never go back. The depth of sound, the bass and the richness of audio is incredible. TV and Films suddenly come to life and music is just immersive – to the point I’ve stopped using my smart speaker for music and play it though the Sound bar now. I don’t have the tv wall mounted, so had to change over the TV stand to accommodate the sound bar – this was a really nice touch and looks fantastic. Really ties the unit together and looks very slick indeed. Toi date I’ve only used the Soundbar with the TV and connected to my phone via Bluetooth. I believe it also has integration with Spotify and generic Wifi capabilities which are nice touches I need to check out. All in all, first impressions are overwhelmingly positive. Well made, easy to set up and fantastic performance.

While Pricey, Pairs Great with LG OLED

Just as I anticipated that LG soundbar and TV would be the optimal setup since they are both under same LG ecosystem, I would recommend this soundbar for those planning to buy LG OLED. Apart from the easy setup and plug&play, the overall bass is less richier than my expectation.

Swapped cables for better sound - Optical Audio

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the LG SC9S Soundbar and paired it with my 2020 LG 55" OLED TV, hoping to create an immersive and easy-to-use home theater system in our living room, where we daily watch Numerous shows from a variety of sources. I used an HDMI eARC connection directly from my three-year old LG OLED, downloaded the iPhone app and turned up the volume. LG includes an HDMI cable with the Soundbar. Set-up was fairly easy, especially using the app. I set the TV's audio output for HDMI eARC and started testing the new Soundbar. Using the HDMI cable, the audio results were muddled. While watching favorite streaming shows, the voices were often drowned out or made difficult to hear by background music and noises. Talk shows sounded great as did the news, but shows with music and sound effects create issues. There are eight different "Sound Effects", but none cleared up the audio issues. Two seem redundant "AI Sound Pro automatically optimize sound based on content type" sounds very much like like "Standard - Generally, the best sound is set to be heard". The translations could be clearer. I called LG consumer support to troubleshoot my sound issues and the support person was quite patient and helpful. I swapped out the HDMI, reset the Soundbar and tried different input sources, but no improvement to the muddling. It was suggested I try an Optical Audio cable and that fixed the problem, but seems like a step-back in technology. Thankfully I had an audio optical cable and connected it from the 2020 LG OLED to the Soundbar, changed the TV’s output to match that cable and the “muddled audio” issues disappeared! Not sure yet if I still get all of the benefits and features of the Soundbar (IMAX, Dolby Atmos) using Optical Audio, but I can now simultaneously play audio from the Soundbar AND the TV, for even more sound. I had hoped to place the speaker in front of my 2020 LG OLED, but doing so blocks the RF sensor, so the remote won't work. I therefore put it on a shelf above the TV and it looks nice there, blending into the shelf. I placed the subwoofer behind the set and it is nicely hidden, but the bass is still impressive. In conclusion, the sound is very impressive, I just wish the set-up had been smoother and that the recommended HDMI connection had been successful. At least now I have excellent sound from all sources and am ready for even greater performance when and if I upgrade to a new LG OLED evo. Read less Yes, I recommend this product.

The sound and bass is so impressive and sound clear; the television speaker was amazing in my opinion but the sound bar system has completely changed everything. I have a TV that is compatible with this sound bar system and I absolutely love the fact that you can connect it directly to the bottom of your TV easily and securely. This is great for space saving and also saves you from having to fit a shelf to your wall if you don't already have one. The Subwoofer isn't huge which is ideal but do not let it's size fool you. The bass is extraordinary! Overall I am completely inlove with this purchase not only for the sound and it's elegant look but for it's ease of use. The connects to the TV through either optical or hdmi and the Subwoofer connects directly to the sound bar (wireless). You can alter the sound you want for example cinema, music through the TV.

Quality product, low end support

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The sound quality is fantastic but the amount of headaches associated with this product are too much.. I purchased this is tandem with a Class C2 Series OLED evo smart TV, You can't innately sync the sound from the t.v. and the speaker through the settings on the t.v. you have to download the LG soundbar app and adjust the AV sync every single time you turn it off and back on. I've had connectivity issues in the past as well, overall it just kind of seems like the software for this device is lacking and the software developers seem to not care about the end product.
