LG Premium Soundbar Review with Dolby Atmos (SN8YG)

- I was quite blown away by just how much clean and loud sound can come out of a soundbar. It was my first experience with a soundbar this expensive and thought I'd share with you. #LGSoundBar.
This is a 3.1.2 channel home theater soundbar from LG that supports Dolby Atmos and DTS:X sound formats.
The speaker system is flexible to expand itself into a 5.1.2 channel system with simple addition of SPK8-S speakers (tough to find).
Since the soundbar supports ARC, you can connect this with your TV's ARC HDMI port and let the soundbar automatically decide the source and the best sound mode depending on the content that is fed to it by your TV.
It comes with quite a bunch of smart features too. This is a wi-fi enabled speaker that connects to your home's wireless network (using Google Home app) offering you wireless audio playback from compatible chromecast apps on your phone. So you can sit anywhere in your house and play music or any audio from these spakers. You can obviously connect your phone or tablet using Bluetooth with the speaker and play music with insane high quality playback.
The speakers are really loud but not at the cost of clarity.
There are multiple sound modes that you can cycle through for the best audio experience. You can choose from bass blast, movie, AI sound pro, music and standard. The movie souund mode is particularly very rich, cinematic and immersive with intense depth and delivers beyond expectation.
The music mode is best suited for listening to music given that the mode ensures you get a clean and flat sound profile which feels more accurate.
Dolby Atmos support ensures you get an all round surround immersive audio experience.
The LG wi-fi speaker app can additionally be installed. The app allows you to configure the sound settings for individual speakers as well as the sub-woofer. The subwooofer is quite powerful and comes wirelessly paired with the speakers. The LG app also allows you to use the AI calibration feature that readjusts speaker configuration and specification basis its placement inthe room to offer the most optiimzed audio experience.

I’m just seeing this now because this sound bar is on sale, but I had to comment on how value this video was for me. You speak super clear, are articulate, helpful, and even pushed me towards deciding to buy. Thank you!
Definitely one of the best reviews of this soundbar. Thank you for your efforts!👍

Great review. Thanks for sharing!
Excellent reviews very thorough and honest
Finally! An intelligent reviewer. Thank You 🙏
Ha. Really. India is about as smart as an American with dementia.
The Indian navy are so smart they sank their own submarine in port trying to dive without closing the hatch.
So smart they let children eat trash.
Now think of any dump anywhere in the world. You know trash mountains all the waste in one spot. See all the rats and birds living off it?
Yeah not in India. In India the kids chase the vermin out that's their food. The birds and the rats don't dare steal the peoples trash food or they will go in the pot too. Indians call this food.
PaqPaq and they will sell it to you on the streets if you are a tourist too. So look out.
Thanks for the review, very clear and comprehensive.
Great video, best one out there for this bar and I just ordered it today, Thank you.
Great reviews, I wish I could hear little bit of sound demo from the soundbar.
Great video Thank you very much!
Great video merci from France
This soundbar is awesone. Movies and video games are so immersive with this bar. The rear speakers actually kick loudly when the settings are accurate. I will probably get flamed for this but I think the sound quality is just as good as the SN9YG.
still happy with it? i just bought it and it will arrive today! i got the rear speakers too. I have a kitchen behind my living room and the rears will be on top of the cabinets about 28 ft away from the soundbar, hope distance isn't too far.
@@Michael-li3id how is it?
@@Optionvideo209 thrilled with it. The SNC75 is what I got (same as sn8yg) and the SPK8-S wireless rears. Total it cost me around $400 for the 5.1.2. DUplicating this w/ Sonos or Bose would have cost me 5x as much for marginally better audio. Effortless connection w/ my android and my wifes iphone so we can stream Pandora/spotify through it. Probably doesnt hurt I have it also paired to an LG OLED tv. Buy it, you wont be disappointed.
Superb video fully detail..i want you to make video on polk magnifi mini.
Nice review
Good review 👍 how can I connect a fire stick and 4K projector - retaining the other 4K video on projector & Dolby atmos/DTSX sound ? Any insights will be helpful ..
Great review! Is it possible to stream via AirPlay directly to the soundbar ? Or do you always need the LG App ? Thanks
I got it week ago,Dolby Atmos is really incredible.very happy with Sn8yg.love forever LG.
What programs /apps do you use to make dolby atmos work?
How is upfiring and surround speakers?
Having earthing issue with the sound bar... If u keep ur skinny part on sound bar.... U get a feel like shocking...... Raised complaint engineers came and told it will be like that. If u want test keep a tester on the grill part of sound bar it will blink.... Now raised request for refund
Keep ur palm back side to the sound bar grill at any point if u feeling like pinching then keep a tester on the grill it might blink..... For me it happened Its a defective sound bar what i got.....complaint raised and waiting for refund.....
Do you feel tingling shock when touch front metal part of soundbar
I have the LG OLED C@ tv with the Apple 4K stream box. Will this work fine with the apple remote? given I use the ARC hdmi spot? Great breakdown in the video. Thank you!
Great review although you can u L brackets to mount correctly with Atmos speakers facing ceiling.
sold ! thanks
Thank you for this review it really helped me understand. And I just bought the 55 inch LG CX OLED so this would be perfect for it 👌 and I'm still waiting for my Xbox series x and PS5
just got a 65 inc LG CX with this soundbar, best decision i've made in a while.
@@WazZappening really?😀 wow that's awesome bro , that makes me feel good about buying the same sound bar just going to to until black Friday next week to see if it goes down a little bit more in price
@@R0CK.N.R0LLA also, I just found a promotion on LG's website you get a free speaker with your tv purchase, just have to provide a pic of the receipt and of the serial number.
@@WazZappening oh no way 😀😀😀 thanks homie I'll look into that right away
I’m literally waiting for all the same hardware !
How does it convert 5.1 content sound without dolby atmos? Will it convert into stereo or 3.1.2?
Hey mate good video with the mounting of it it sits on the wall the same way u have it on a table it doesn’t flip up iv got this sound bar and it mounts normal to the wall. over all good video 👍
Got it wrong about wall mount. Overall a complete review 👍🏻
In what way? I agree, I’d prefer not to see the top of the bar when looking at the TV
@@BucsFan381224 it mounts in the same position that it stands.
199k
1k more and then 200k
Congrats on advance
I've had this unit for a couple days now. I am running in Movie sound mode. After a while, the sound just stops working. I switch the sound mode and the sound comes back. This is my first soundbar, but pretty sure it is not normal. It sounds good as I also have the rear speaker setup. Maybe it's just Movie mode that this happens, but I ain't going for this, probably be taking this thing back.
Wat about bass quality and plz tell what should I buy SONY HT-700RF OR LGSN8YG ?
Nice👌...Video!
thanks man
Very professional review
It’s a good & can get it retails around 35K in India
What about the brand new SPD75A? Can't find reviews on that one anywhere :( I'm thinking of getting that or Samsung Q800a... Thank you!
I wanna get this to match my incoming 77" LG C1. Kinda expensive though but the Dolby Atmos is a must...
If you have enough money for a c1 77 yiu can buy this
@@youareasock9752 oh I got the SP8YA. That one's better right?
This HDMI connection part is incorrect as this set up will give you significant sound delay when selecting Dolby Atmos on your Xbox Series X. The Soundbar supports HDMI 2.1 so you actually want to route your Xbox into the input HDMI of the Soundbar and then route the eArc HDMI output of the Soundbar into the eArc input of the TV (only one HDMI going into the TV). This will allow the audio and video of the Xbox to sync together while using Dolby Atmos.
Why would you use anything but headphones though. Dolby atmos is OK for movies. Not gaming. Headphones are for gaming.
Atmos is just another buzz word just like dolby digital when I was a kid. Then dolby 123. Whatever they want to call their new fandango thing.
My phone has dolby atmos and its nothing special.
My TV has dolby atmos built in and it sounds brilliant truly brilliant but it does not sound anything like surround sound.
LG sk8000 plb.
The best sounding TV I've seen for years loud deep and bass e. But not surround.
I had a cheap dvd surround sound system connected to my TV years and years and years ago CRT TV old. That was surround sound and it sounded amazing.
If there was a train on the TV sounding off it sounded like a real train was in the room over there then over there then behind me. Even better than the cinema since it was small room me in the middle of the speakers.
Dolby atmos could never do that.
Atmos provides height. That’s all it is. It has nothing to do with the regular surround sound. It doesn’t work without upfiring speakers.
@@TrollingHistory atmos is absolutely not a buzzword. If set up correctly, it improves surround sound incredibly. Your phone supports dolby atmos as in it can read dolby atmos audio but that doesn’t mean it’s speakers can recreate atmos sound enough for you to hear it. Connect your phone to atmos capable home theater speakers and you have true atmos audio
If you're watching this now. The SNC75 (identical unit but rebadged for Costco) is only $219 brand new on Amazon and the rears can be had for like $110 (LG SPK8) giving you a 5.1.2 setup with earc, atmos, and 580w, ai room calibrate for under $350. Ridiculous bargain
I dont c it in costco.. Are u sure its the right model?
question And want to buy a sound projector with Dolby Atmos My question is whether it is worth taking with 3.1 and adding two rear speakers or buying 4.1 or 5.1? The question is whether it is worth paying twice as much to get a good product? And if at all 3.1 with two more speakers will give me the same quality as 4.1 or 5.1? Is it possible to dispense with a central speaker in a sound projector that is 4.1? For example lg Sn7y It has no built-in side speakers. My question if I add a sk8 will give me the same return as a 5.1 sound bar .. If sk8 does the same function what does two speakers built into the sides of a sound bar? Thanks in advance for the answer
Hi,
my tv is a bit older, so he has just "ARC" and unfortunately not "eARC". Am I able to use the full Doly Atmos experience?
Or should I buy a Fire TV Cube for example (which has one HDMI with eARC) to fully experience Dolby Atmos?
Thanks for your help!
You'll be able to experience Dolby Atmos with just arc
I dont believe you will be able to experience full Atmos with just ARC. ARC can receive Atmos, but will strip it down to 5.1 format or Dolby Digital Plus. You will need E-ARC for full-fat Dolby Atmos
How does this compare to other soundbars that are of similar price range
Pls compare Q800A, Sony G700 and Lg SN8YG
hmmm Can you try wall mount and let me know how it work ? sound quality?
Hi.. can i connect tv stick directly to soundbar? Bcz mt tv don’t have arc port.. and I want atmos to pass to soundbar
I bought the LG SL8YG on Black Friday sales, is amazing, is the same as this one except mine doesn't have earc and room auto calibration two things that i dont need since im running everything trought HDMI, except cable tv. I have the SPJ4-S rear speakers kit, that work flawless. How far is the soundbar from your sit? Did you change the equalizer? I always run on Movie mode also, except Dolby atmos of course. I have right and left 0, center +2 for extra dialogue clearence, overhead +4, rear 0, treble 0 and bass -2, im sitting arround 8 feet ( 270cm) away, my ceiling is 10 feet (300cm) height. What do you think of this settings? Thanks.
Brother I also bought sl8yg 3..1 but rear speakers kit not available in India. If u have any info above speakers give informed to buy that product
@@jalavinaya8632 try on amazon, LG SPK8.
Or you can buy one LG SJ4R, or a SK5R, then you sell the soundbar and subwoofer and keep the rear kit, is the SPJ4-S rear kit but is compatible, thats the kit that i use.
And that is what i did, had the SJ4R and sold it without the rear kit.
Good review thank you can you just explain what is exactly the difference between SL8YG and SN8YG and what does the G stand for in that reference. Thanks in advance.
SL is from 2019, SN is 2020. One difference is SN has eARC. I believe the G shows that it has Google Assistant build-in.
@@kristianbruhn912 thank you for your reply
I just bought This sound bar today and wall mounted it. It does NOT face forward like you said. It’s mounted and secured to the brackets in the same position as if it was just sitting on a tv stand. Please correct that info for any potential buyers who may see this review.
Is the Sound just as good or is it changed by mounting it on the wall...?
@@marcel793 mounting it doesn’t change the sound as long as it’s mounted correctly ie; speakers facing up. There is a “cut out sheet” that come with the soundbar so you know exactly where to place it as not to have the sound bounce off the bottom of the tv. It has to be low enough for “sound clearance”. For what it’s worth after a couple of months of using it… it’s good but I don’t have the rear speakers, just the bar and the sub. As a result the var is handling both the highs and mids and voice quality (on any setting) remains a bit muffled. If you can get the rear speakers I would definitely recommend you do. It’s a good system but for $800 we can prob do better. Hope this helps.
@@kipperrd8964 thanks for your information. Greetings from Germany...
@@marcel793 you’re welcome, hope it helped.
hello, the light on soundbar is always on? or it turn off after while
Where to by SN10YG its not available in any online store, amazon, flipkart, reliance digital
The wall mount part🤣🤣🤣
Yes he confused, It wall mounts normally. I got the L shaped brackets and the wall mount configuration is exactly like table top.
@@pradeepkancharla2637 actually it is supposed to change direction, it instead will use the hight channels as front any the now down facing speakers to bounce sound twice and “height” so once the ground then the ceiling.
edit: i should add it has a gyroscope sensor inside that will know it’s orientation and change the output type on its own.
Great review brother - two questions / while playing video games what sound mode do you prefer on the soundbar ? & while playing a movie if the movie sound is dts should you change it to dts on the PlayStation or keep it at Dolby on the audio settings ?
@Joseph Dundee thanks dude! sounds great on bass booster for games 🔥🔥
How to expand that soundbar to 5.1.2? Please i need that information in order to choose the soundbar in gonna buy
EASY. BUY THE REAR SPEAKERS KIT.
LG Electronics SPK8-S 2.0 Channel Sound Bar Wireless Rear Speaker Kit (Black)
Can we add to this Tv?
that price point i would go with the vizio 5.1.4 elevate sound bar instead
1) LG products are more readily available than Vizio. Vizio ain't available in Asia.
2) SN8YG going for about 500 USD, so the Vizio, if available, is potentially 2X the price at its full MSRP
I have this but my subwoofer doesn’t want to connect. It has power and the green light blinks but idk how to connect it. Any idea?
Pls share rear wireless speaker model no which I can attach to this lg sound bar
Super Bro
Purchased this sound bar this week. Getting a feel for functionality, but can’t seem to get any sound out of the sub-woofer…. Any ideas why?
Reset the sound bar and have the subwoofer blinking and wait
for 2 min til it stops blinking, connected
Im from malaysia. When i watch netflix that have dolby atmos, its dont show at my soundbar. Do i need to set something?
hi thank you for your video are there loudspeakers on the facades at the ends of the bar if someone can help me thank you in advance
Pls teview lg ds 95q or lgsp11ra
As soon as possible
If TV has ARC and soundbar has eARC will that produce lossless Dolby atmos
Is LG SN6YG IS WORTH BUY. pLS SUGGEST
I have it and feel like the bass is heavy ass hell and I don't even have bass changed than stock. But, every single movie is loud with bass at 25, but the talking parts are so low
I can’t get the display to turn off while using it. Very distracting while watching tv. Am I doing something wrong?
Hi brother I bought lg sl8yg 3.1.2 but rear speakers not available in India 🇮🇳 could u give me any alternative speakers or any solution for that I missing that rear experience?
Would U like to buy it from me its genuine n brand new
What you say about the wallmount is false. The manual states it is mounted as you have it. Not on the side.
Hi bro...
please tell me which is the best camera 📷 for CZcams video shooting. I will shoot videos mainly indoors like sitting in chair and shooting in my room/mini homemade studio.... like you shoot indoors...
budget is 50k to 60k... I am not into photography I just want Great video with blurry background effect.
Please suggest best camera to buy in 2020
It's a very complicated answer! But in that budget you'll only get crop sensors, so make sure you have enough distance between you and the background. Having said that, get a pancake lens with 25 mm f/1.7 aperture (equivalent of 50mm on full sensor) and that should get you a nice background blur
Thanks for reply Bro....
After watching so many videos I have short listed two cameras canon m50 and canon 200d Mark II.. so please tell me how good is this cameras.... So many Indian youtubers and foreign youtubers are telling that m50 is good for 4k video recording... Please give me your thoughts on this. Which camera should I buy and which lens along with the camera
For those that don’t know.
Hook up console to tv then connect HDMI from your TVs arc/E-Arc to soundbar for best results, if you Bluetooth or optical digital your really losing a lot of features and audio quality. Also play with sound settings in app and tv to also get some better customization and features.
My console is already hooked up to my tv. So just hook up from tv arc to sound bar?
Gamers use headsets though.
@@TrollingHistory Headsets are nice when playing with friends or competitive gaming but they are annoying at times, when i play a game like Forza or any other the sound bar is a better option or even when I'm playing solo on a fps
Lg sn8yg soundbar dts virtual x enables or not?
Do I need to have hdmi cord in order to get Dolby Atmos or will it work with just the optical cord plugged in?
Dolby atmos doesn’t work over optical I use HDMI Earc and then plus that port to my tv that says the same and you also got to make sure your it’s enabled also on Netflix or w.e your watching it from
@@devonpetersen6309 thank you!!
On tv can you connect with wireless?....
What’s better pcmi or bitstream when I’m gaming on my ps4 pro with this soundbar
Bitstream allows for Dolby atmos and surround features
How can expand to 5.1.2 channel plz give DEMO
Can i buy used Samsung Hw-k950 please advise
My big question is can I get this sound at to automatically turn on and off when I turn on my LG C1? I can’t do that with my old Samsung soundbar.
Yes.. It's a ARC function
Anybody have the surround satellite speakers?? Are they any good worth the hefty price tag?
Anyone knows if this support alexa? 8 know the video says it does, but the website say it does. Jsut wondering if I can use this without another alexa echo.
Hi, whether can I get clear dialogue delivery in this soundbar
Super clear in my opinion..
Specially because of the middle speaker
What about the sub-woofer.
Can you add wireless rear speakers to this soundbar?
Yes
I had a couple questions..
1) is the subwoofer wireless? When it's currently connected via cord, but when I remove it, it turns off.
2) the sound bar did not come with HDMI eARC, so I'm currently using the optical cords.. in order for me to get EARC, it needs to be HDMI right? And if so, do I still need to have the optical (in & out) cord connected? I'm assuming it's one or the other.
3) once I get the HDMI eARC cables, will it allow me to adjust the volume on my TV CX remote? I don't want to be using 2 separate remotes
4) is there any possible way to have the sound bar and subwoofer completely wireless?
No rush on the response. I'd appreciate any guidance you can provide. Thanks in advance man
For 1 and 4: The subwoofer wirelessly connects with the speaker (the actual bar). They connect to each other via Bluetooth and they do so automatically. However, the sound bar and the subwoofer need to connect to a power source independently. So that can't be completely wireless.
2. You just need an ARC compatible HDMI cable and you wouldn't need the optical cable.
3. Yes, you'll be able to adjust the volume with just one remote.
Can't find LG Wi-Fi Speaker in Play Store???
Sonos play bar or LG SN8YG 3.1.2 Channel High Res Audio Sound Bar ? Which one is better ?
Unfortunately, I can't comment. I've not used the Sonos yet or experienced it, to be able to give you a fair response.
All I can say is, you won't be disappointed with the SN8YG.
Play Bar is great for streaming music but lacks bass and Dolby Atmos compared to the LG, so aint that great for movies
Hi, I don't have Bluetooth on the LG SL8YG soundbar
How is it when compared to Samsung HW-Q800T? Thanks.
Believe the subwoofer on the 8Y is better
Don't buy Samsung soundbars, bad quality sound
@@e.t.l4324 I agree. I got the Samsung and went back to exchange for this one. Samsung sound is limited, doesn’t go very loud. We cranked it up maximum and it wasn’t even that loud. I’m so happy I got this. Wayyyy better.
How do you factory reset
This is insane, for 900, one can buy a good AVR, a 10 inch sub, a center channel, 2 front speakers and 2 atmos speakers
What the difference between sn7y to sn8? Thanks
SN8YG vs SN7Y. The difference is that SN8YG comes integrated with Google Assistant and Chromecast
I bought the LG sn9yg, I read good reviews on it but was very disappointed. I connected with HDMI (connected to LG C9) and still wasn’t impressed at all. The bass is weak and doesn’t do a good job of making you feel the immersion you’d expect while watching action scenes. The rear speakers (bought separately) were almost completely silent and the atmos sound from above was non existent. I tried for hours, different settings and videos with no luck. It was a good basic soundbar but almost nothing as far as atmos. It’s close to $1k, performance wise it should cost $300 to $400. I’m debating on trying the JBL 9.1 system next, if anyone has any recommendations I’d love your input.
Couple of things:
1. Are you sure you connected using the ARC HDMI port of your TV to the ARC HDMI port of the soundbar?
2. Even if you did that, you've to be sure that the HDMI cable is ARC compatible itself. Old hdmi cables don't support ARC.
ARC is important as it automatically detects the sound that's coming and switches Atmos on or off.
3. You've to be sure you're watching content that has Dolby Atmos content in it.
4. Do run the AI sound calibration once to ensure its optimised basis the placement.
5. Use LG wifi speaker app to increase the bass.
@@mobiscrub I appreciate the quick reply, thank you. Yes, the HDMI was bought supporting ARC (recommended by the Abt sales associate). Also it is plugged into the LG C9 ARC as well. The content was tried through several sources Atmos test videos on CZcams, Amazon Prime and Netflix. I didn’t see anything about a self calibration tool on the soundbar but I’ve tried adjusting the settings (for hours) and no luck. I just now downloaded the app and will try that tomorrow, if it doesn’t work I’ll have to return it and try a different soundbar (I was thinking the JBL Atmos soundbar based on test reviews).
There is basically no noticeable Atmos affect and little subwoofer sound, for a regular soundbar it might be ok... But not at this price and supposedly Atmos (I did see a recent price drop, still it’s overpriced and I’d say worth between $300 and $400).
I'm not sure about JBL as I've never experienced them. But I do recommend, that before you buy, a review should only help you narrow down your choices. When it comes to sound, it's important to experience by yourself. So I'd always prefer a live demo before purchase.
Also, did you try setting your sound mode to Movie? I'm using them right now as my daily speaker and I've been quite happy.
@@mobiscrub Yes, movie is the best by far but missing any sound from above and the rears are very quiet. I wish I could hear them at the store but most places don’t have them set up where you can listen and if they do the rooms are huge and you can’t tell if sound is bouncing off the walls/ceiling.
I’ve had surround systems in the past I really enjoyed, For example a Denon receiver and Definitive Technology speakers (it was incredible). I know no bar will reproduce that sound but I’d still expect to hear sound above and more sound behind.
Do you hear sound above you in scenes with rain, helicopters, etc. with yours?
Yeah... I do. It's definitely not as accurate as it could with speakers that can physically simulate the effect, but given that these soundbars are trying to recreate the effect virtually, there's only so much you can expect. Right?
The only problem I can see is that my LG C1 OLED sits so low you can't really put a soundbar in front of it. I'm surprised they didn't consider this when designing the stand for the C1. So I would need to put it on the shelf under the TV. I'm not sure how the top firing speakers would do in that case.
Oh damnnnnnn.... That's disappointing
I have the 77 c1 and it fits just right
I'm having the same dilemma right now
mount the tv then optionally mount the soundbar under it.
That is my dilemma
I have this soundbar. But I cant get Calibration on it?
You need to download lg sound bar app from AppStore or google store to do the AI calibration
@@wadjihhenni3047 I have the app store and still there is no option?
Hey man, you can connect the bluetooth of the iphone to listen to the music from my library in the lg soundbar and tried but nothing is heard, it just says connected but the sound does not pass for the lgsoundbar.
hi, same problem here
did u already solve the problem mate?
Does this soundbar provides the best Dolby Atmos experience
Hard to say... I've not experienced many to be honest
Not at all
You need speakers on the ceiling facing down towards you for the best Atmos experience.
internal diameter woofer (subwoofer)?
I think it's 7 inches
No, you’re wrong you don’t need to mount it with its Atmos speaker facing front. This thing comes with mounting brackets the support unit and you screw the M8 screw from the bottom up.it is an L-shaped brackets.
Which one is best sn8yg or sn10yg
Sn10yg for sure
@@mobiscrub can you please help with taking this tingling shock issue from front par of the metallic grille with LG not sure if its wide spread but Anbarasu..Singh and me have the same issue..
Price
Is it worth buying it??
Nope. TV speakers are almost up there with this
Hey I want to buy ASUS TUF GAMING A15 laptop. It is good for photo editing and many software like android studios and many other software like this. Should I buy it or not can you help me.
I bought this sound bar last week. These are great speakers for music , good for tv shows however not good for movie watching . Rear speakers LG SPK8-S: needs to be purchased separately however they are not available in India. In amazon the rear speakers cost as much as 40K on top of the sound bar cost. Dobly atmos is a gimmick I couldn't get it to work on movies played locally on my LG C9 or Netflix app. If you are planning to upgrade in future to a 5.1 setup these aren't worth it due to lack of rear speakers availability. If you want a surround setup go with HT Z9F including rear speakers now you get it for 69k online, check in your local stores for extra discount during festive offer and CC cash back you get it for like 60 including rear speakers.
thank you for your opinion
Note :I finally got the Dolby Atmos to work. If you are having trouble with dolby Atmos - Reset the sound bar, Please ensure to turn off Dolby Atmos on LG tv , Turn on eArc and enable audio bypass. These speakers can only play web Atmos ( Netflix and HBO). They can't play true HD Dolby atmos audio ( blu ray )
Try with Windows 10, it has Dolby Atmos 14 days free they have D..A sample
Does Dolby Atmos work with HDMI ARC? Or is an eARC required for Atmos?
Streaming apps Netflix, Disney plus ect use lossy Atmos through Arc. Lossless Atmos with blu rays you have to have earc.
Great Review
Currently I am using a SONY 5.1 HOME THEATER SYSTEM(MODAL SONY DAV DZ 350) WITH MY SONY 4K ANDROID TV(SONY 9500G) but I am very very unsatisfied with TV SOUND OUT PUT in my 5.1 HOME THEATRE because ---
During Watching the Movies and fighting seen we are listening only heavy bass and unable to listen dialogue clearly means. Sometimes audio is increasing and sometimes decreasing so we take the REMOTE Permanently in my hand . Please Suggest because I am very very disappointing. My TV is very high quality TV and very Costly but I am very sad due to sound out put in my Home Theater.
