Before you start comparing soundbars for LG TVs, consider your priorities. Your aesthetic, lifestyle, favourite media and preferred price point can impact the features you look for.

The typical soundbar setup includes a long speaker that sits under the TV, and a subwoofer that sits on the floor. This combination allows you to enjoy enhanced bass and treble for enhanced, surround-sound audio quality. To go a step further, soundbars for LG TVs also include AI calibration to automatically adjust to every beat.1

 

In order to determine how much power and customisation you need, let's dive into the details.

What are soundbar channels?

 

The main component of the soundbar is filled with individual sound sources, or speakers. The amount of speakers the soundbar has, combined with their placement, plus any other speakers found in a connected subwoofer or rear speakers, dictates how many channels the system has. These channels are shown in the following examples;

2.0 channel – this is a simple soundbar which has a left and right channel, for stereo sound.

 

2.1 channel – this could be the same soundbar, but with an additional subwoofer (a large speaker which sits on the floor to give you deep bass) – with the subwoofer channel being represented by the second digit.

 

3.1 channel – now the soundbar has a left, right, and third centre channel, which helps to ensure voices are heard clearly.

 

5.1 channel – two additional channels are added to the sides of the soundbar, to push sound around you for a surround-sound experience

 

9.1.5 channel – in the case of our top-of-the-range cinematic soundbar, the soundbar plus two rear speakers have a total of 9 channels pushing audio all around you on a horizontal plane (the first digit), plus a large subwoofer (the middle digit), and finally the third digit represents up-firing channels (5 in this case), which push sound up and around you for an all-encompassing surround sound experience.

What kind of connection do I need for my TV soundbar?

 

If you want to find a TV soundbar based on your current setup, you need the right connections. 

 

 

Wireless

Certain LG Soundbars feature WiFi connectivity, and can be connected wirelessly to compatible LG TVs through the WOWCAST feature. A wireless connection is also ideal for streaming from your phone or mobile device, using WiFi (with Apple AirPlay or Google Cast), or Bluetooth.

 

HDMI ARC

Most newer TVs feature an HDMI port, which is the easiest way to connect multi-channel soundbars. You simply connect this one cable from your soundbar to the audio return channel (ARC) input in your TV.

 

Optical Port

If your soundbar has fewer than five channels, optical ports provide a stable, reliable connection between your TV and soundbar.

 

Once you understand the types of soundbars that are available, you can find the right choice for you. Check out our favourites to get started.
