[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Only had the bar for a week so this is very much a first look review. Initially we setup via Bluetooth until we were ready to lift our tv of the wall to connect via HDMI. Set-up was straightforward with our 2020 LG nano TV although I found the remote pretty useless as you had to work out which button to press and then how many times to press it to cycle through the options. Luckily the remote wasn't really needed, especially once we got the soundbar to work from our TV remote and there is an app which works very well to set up sound output to the bar and woofer. Even with Bluetooth connection my partner, who loves films was impressed with the sound and sound and picture appeared to sync well with no perceivable delay.. However there is no way to get the LG TV to default to Bluetooth for sound output so bit of a faff having to keep changing output everytime we switched on the TV. Connecting to HDMI Arc did fix this and the TV now defaults to the soundbar seamlessly. Sound is of a good quality although we have had to turn down the subwoofer as our dog is not impressed with immersive sound.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It paired seamlessly with my 55 inch LG C2 and it sounds amazing. For those experiencing issues such as poor sound quality, poor bass, sound not much different compared to the TV speakers, i suggest they perform a factory reset by simultaneously holding the WiFi touch button on the soundbar and pressing the mute button on the soundbar remote for at least 5s. This should fix sound related issues (caused by firmware bugs).

Products Select Sort by Select Rating 1 2 3 4 5 My Testimonials Soundbar SC9 Immersive sound 2024-05-30 19:01:41 1 2 3 4 5 I honestly never realised how much I needed this sound bar system until now. 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.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A great complement to our new LG OLED. Super easy to set up and install.. The wireless components mean there is very little mess and clutter, which also contributes to the sleek and high-end overall look that the system exudes. My LG TV immediately detected the sound bar and I was thrilled to start to hear the quality of the sound that filled the room. The volume is great, the sound crisp, and the bass coming out of the wireless subwoofer really adds to the depth and overall experience. This is an excellent product if you are really looking to enhance your overall television experience. It handles movies, music, sport, podcasts, and games all equally well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Really great soundbar with superb bass. The subwoofer works like magic. The connection was really easy and very quick. As my TV is desk mounted I didn’t had to use bracket provided but I am sure I will be using it in the future. The build quality of the material is really good. The voice quality is really good and crisp. The way it works and integrate with the LG TV is great. The wow cast is exceptional and having no wire makes it look so compact and less clunky. The packing was really good and sturdy as well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband recently installed the LG Soundbar SC9 on our LG TV. I was expecting it to be much larger but I was pleased to see it was a sleek and complimentary design that didn’t dominate the TV wall. There’s a definite marked improvement in the sound we receive since we’ve installed it. Really impressed with the clear, enhanced sound we now get from the soundbar. I especially noticed it when we’ve watched films in the evenings but my kids have also enjoyed the superior sound for all their cartoons too. Would definitely recommend as a great upgrade gor all the family.

LG website needs work, very difficult to navigate . SC9S is very similar to S95QR . SC9S 400 watts ,... small , medium , to large room S95QR 810 watts ,... large room despite the power difference , the Features and operation are very similar . SC9S eArc ouputs video with audio , to the TV . SC9S eArc inputs audio from the TV . voice confirmation is nice , however when muted , the voice also mutes . while muted , 3 amber LEDs flash , they do NOT turn off. thus when muted and watching closed caption , the 3 LEDs are always visible and flashing . i covered the 3 LEDs with black electrical tape . hdmi connector space is cramped , under the sound bar . to me, the sound quality is nice . if you want Atmos , but can't go to S95QR, then SC9S is the answer. LG products have always been reliable for me , LG website needs work . Rear speakers NOT included with SC9S ,... SPQ8-S

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using my LG Soundbar SC9 for a month and enjoy it more daily. It was delivered in a strong box, that looked very professional. Inside were the main unit, subwoofer, remote, and brackets for LG TV. It was a great pleasure to unbox it. I was like a child opening a new toy. Installation was dead easy. You can choose HDMI or Bluetooth. Wireless connection 9includin bass speaker) works great, I have never experienced any issues. The soundbar detects ARC HDMI, so you don't need to use extra remote control. When you turn on the TV or game console, it turns automatically. The sound quality is superb and when I watch a movie or play a game, it surrounds me from every corner.

I’ve had the LG Soundbar SC9 a few weeks. I’ve been fighting the urge to send it back since. It’s not awful, but don’t believe the hype. I’ve probably been spoilt by my other soundbar. By comparison, the LG Soundbar SC9 sounds tinny, lacks definition – especially with dialogue – and is inconsistent when switching streaming service apps. I was eager to try the soundbar as I have a 55" LG C2, and the SC9 (offering the WOW Bracket, WOW Orchestra, and the WOW Interface) seemed like the perfect match. As it goes, the WOW Bracket is a perfect mounting solution. I don’t know why all manufacturers don’t implement similar. It’s raises the TV higher than I expected (for clearance of the TV’s infra-red receiver), but that’s not an issue, and together they stand well on a cabinet. I intend to wall-mount the combo, so the bracket will likely prove invaluable. When it comes to WOW Orchestra, I feel it often doesn’t sound as good as just the soundbar by itself. The AI Sound Pro sound profile is also hit-and-miss, and I often choose the Standard or Bass Boost sound profiles. Speaking of bass… Whilst the highs and mid-tones can be a bit shrill, the bass is quietly unassuming. There have been times when I’ve forgotten about it, only to be surprised by some thunderous sound effects. The speaker module itself is a good size. Just about right to be inconspicuous. I feel the WOW Interface is a gimmick. It’s not readily accessible and provides little meaningful control. The same goes for the remote control. I much prefer using the TV remote for day-to-day sound profile changes, and then use the app for finessing settings. As for the audio feedback when switching sound profiles, it can be grating and is best left alone. AI Room Calibration Pro made a minor difference. Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, and IMAX Enhanced content, and the received audio, haven’t impressed me at all. I end up using the app to lessen the impact of the Triple Up-firing Channels and Tiple Level Spatial Sound. I have just found it all too distracting when trying to consume and appreciate content. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend the soundbar. When tinkered with it can be decent, but it really shouldn’t be such a chore. For the suggested retail price, I know there are far better alternatives, as I have one. But, if you can wait to get this on a significant discount and don’t mind tinkering with the settings during consumption, the potential sound that can be achieved is ok. The WOW Bracket is the main saving grace.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This soundbar does not work with any rear speakers, the rear speakers have been discontinued with no option for anything else to work with them. I feel very cheated as I just purchased this yesterday not realizing the rear speakers did not come with the sound bar. I would have no issues buying the rear speakers if they were available.
