5.1 Soundbar System For Tv

As an engineer I has hoping for a lot, but the 5.1 channel sound of this complete Arc soundbar based home theater system is far beyond my expectations. Since we have Android phones I did have to enlist my son-in-law with his iPhone to do a more thorough system calibration needed to provide the full scope of sound on modern movies and TV, but once fully calibrated to the room in which it's located the sound is just superb.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Quick thoughts: I am coming from a 5.1 surround sound system that I had pieced together over the years, so I was ready for this not to be able to match it…I was pleasantly surprised. I paired the soundbar with my existing Martin Logan subwoofer and was blown away. The Good: Let’s start with the setup. Klipsch does a great job with packaging, labeling each piece, and providing instructions on how to set this up. I had everything up and running in about 15 minutes. I have a few movie scenes and songs that I like to put my audio equipment to the test with. Started with the opening scene of Top Gun, naturally. I think the Flexus Core 200 did a great job with the highs and the lows and when it kicked into “Danger Zone”, I was rocking right along to it and quickly forgot about my 5.1 system. Now is this a replacement for a quality surround sound system? Probably not. But for someone like me who recently became a dad and needed things mounted and away from little hands, this is a great replacement. The Bad: As previously stated, it is not a replacement for a true surround sound system. I found the dialogue a bit lacking, even with the dialogue amplifying setting on. It’s tough to replace a dedicated center channel, but I fault myself more than the soundbar. As far as comparing this vs other soundbars, I think this one is near the top regarding dialogue.

A soundbar. I never really was a friend of soundbars, I always preferred true 5.1 speaker setups. But I always wanted to include the TV room to my Sonos multiroom setup. Since the beam is too small for the room, it was never an option. Now, the Arc. Finally. Exactly what I was looking for. A soundbar that is able replace my 5.1 speaker setup (it really performs at least as good as my old setup) and also offers Dolby Atmos (which my old setup was not able to handle). And, the TV room is finally part of my multiroom setup. The look of it might not appeal to everyone, but I personally like the "form follows function" design and I think that it integrates well into my home without being too prominent. Overall, a great product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently got the LG Soundbar S80TR, and it has totally upgraded my space. I have it set up in a bedroom that is used mostly for gaming and watching TV. I love that the rear speakers are wireless—no more tangled cables all over the place which is ideal for this space! The sound quality is amazing. With Dolby Atmos®, it feels like the sound is coming from all around me, which is perfect for not only movies but gaming as well. The bass is deep, the highs are clear, and the whole system delivers a rich, immersive audio experience. What I really appreciate is how the soundbar adapts to whatever I'm watching. Whether it's a movie, video game, or just some music, it automatically adjusts to give me the best sound. The remote is easy to use, and switching between different sound modes is super simple. It also pairs perfectly with my LG TV! Plus, it’s got all the connectivity options I need—Bluetooth, HDMI, and optical input—so it works great with all my devices. Overall, the LG Soundbar S80TR is a fantastic addition to my setup. It’s easy to use, sounds incredible, and looks sleek. I am very impressed with this soundbar. If you're looking to take your TV sound to the next level without investing into a whole entertainment system, I highly recommend this soundbar!

We decided to put real TV sound on our porch flat panel. Sonos is the only system that allows for a Dolby 5.1 system to be deployed without running wires. We used a PLAYBAR positioned beneath the TV and a Sonos BOOST to create a separate subnet for the SUB and two PLAY:3 speakers. The BOOST allows us to avoid any signal traffic interference with our porch wifi network. The BOOST also allows all of the wifi attached Sonos gear to look like a single device to the home network. The Sonos home theater gear all went together easily and configured quickly. We couldn't have been happier. We used an Ethernet drop to the porch to get the FiOS signal to both a Roku and a TiVo mini to drive the TV. We configured the TiVo remote control to handle the sound volume on the PLAYBAR and to select between the streaming sources ? Roku or TiVo/FiOS. Sonos made this configuration simple. The PLAYBAR/BOOST combination takes care of making sure the 5.1 volume is set correctly on the PLAYBAR/SUB/PLAY:3s. We were concerned that big sound would be difficult to pull off on a 20'x50' porch given that it was open on 3 sides. The sound field of the Sonos home theater system was mind boggling on every corner of the porch. We could turn it up to drowned out lawnmowers and leaf blowers. We actually mounted the TV/PLAYBAR/BOOST on a rolling cart (from Premier Mounts) so that it can be positioned to best suit where the audience is on the porch, or pushed back out of the way. We could not be happier with the way it turned out.

This is my first time buying a 5.1 surround soundbar, and I must say I'm pretty impressed with the sound.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A few months ago, we upgraded our home audio system to the LG Soundbar with Wireless Dolby Atmos & Rear Speakers, 5.1.3 Ch, S80TR, and it has transformed our TV-watching experience. The sleek design fit seamlessly into our living room, and the wireless setup was hassle-free. The first movie we watched blew us away. Dolby Atmos technology created a 3D soundscape, making us feel like we were in the middle of the action. The rear speakers added depth, and the sound quality was exceptional, whether we were watching movies, sports, or listening to music. The kids were captivated by the immersive experience, and my husband, an audiophile, appreciated the high-quality audio. The LG Soundbar S80TR has made watching TV a truly enjoyable family event. If you're looking to upgrade your home audio system, I highly recommend it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm a very proud owner of a Q70a QLED TV. Although the TV itself comes with good speakers, I wanted to enhance the 4K experience with a solid Dolby Atmos capable system. I initially invested in a cheap soundbar from another brand and quickly realized my mistake. Within a week, I was searching for a new sound system and wanted to avoid repeating my previous error. The best option was undoubtedly the Samsung Q990D, but my budget didn't allow for it. The next best I could afford was the Samsung Q800D, and it didn't fail to impress me at all. The soundbar itself sounded so rich and full compared to my old system. The bass vibrated my floor, and everything sounded incredibly crisp and clear. Q-Symphony is one of the best features available when you have a Samsung sound system paired with a Samsung TV. I was already in love with my setup, but when I realized the soundbar could be paired with rear speakers, I quickly purchased the Samsung SWA-9500s. I was blown away by the overall experience, so much so that I rewatched all my movies just to experience the sheer excellence of my complete sound system. The Samsung Q800D soundbar paired with the SWA-9500s rear speakers has elevated my home theater experience to a whole new level. The combination of Dolby Atmos, Q-Symphony, and powerful sound has turned my living room into a cinematic masterpiece. If you're looking to invest in a high-quality sound system, I highly recommend this setup. It's a perfect blend of performance and value.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I originally purchased the LG S80TR soundbar to replace an aging soundbar in my spare TV room. Unboxing was very easy, everything was well packed, easy to remove and locate all the parts and accessories. Connection to the TV was easy and straightforward. Plugged it into my HDMI-eARC port on the TV, connected power following the order in the instructions and everything was up and running right away. I put on a movie, listened to it for about 30 seconds and realized this system sounded too good to be in the spare TV room. I unplugged everything, carried it into the movie room, unhooked the old system and hooked this system up. Connection for this system consists of a power plug for each rear speaker, a power plug for the sub and the soundbar and an HDMI cable to the TV eARC port. I did the room adjustment and turned on the AI enhancement, started watching some of my favorite Dolby Atmos movies and was really impressed with the sound I get from this system. I have a large room and cannot place both rear speakers an equal distance from where I sit, but the room balancing does a great job adjusting the sound so that even though the left rear is about twice as far from me as the right rear, it still sounds like everything was in the perfect position. The AI sound profile has been working great as well. Whether I'm playing a game, watching a movie, TV or Sports show, the sound has been impressive every time. I have other soundbars I have spent twice as much on that do not sound as good as this one. For the price and for the product you get, I have no problems recommending this soundbar.

I never knew what a soundbar before. When I decided to upgrade the sound system of my TV, I read plenty of online reviews on how to purchase a soundbar without breaking the bank. Finally chose this product after many considerations. The set up was so easy and the sound was great. I would recommend to use HDML arc cable (which was not included) instead the cable came with the package. This soundbar is great for entry level of setup of your home theater system.
